Since everything is getting changed on the build i need a new clutch and am contemplating the g60 flywheel maybe? seen various g60 vr clutch kits on the bay but all say they are for the mk4 turbo. link would this fit the vr? it says comes with bolts to fit mk4. would it be a case of using my bolts? is it worth trying to source a g60 fly? keep standard fly? can get a standard sachs clutch on euro for £100 Euro Link all help as per usual is greatly appreciated.

Welcome Simon, your anni looks good fella! as cabbs has said - get the vr lump in her. As you'll find out soon enough there is a vast amount of knowledge within the community! So you won't be far from someone who knows the answer. Enjoy Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk

Hiya guys. just bumped into a mate of mine down the gym (yeah i know new year new me apparently) he has been breaking his vr for a year or so since he had a smash. he asked how my project was getting on obviously gave him the gory details and asked if he knows anyone who would want some near mint 5 door leathers. he replied that he was still trying to find a home for his near mint mulberry. and he only was 100 notes for it, inclusive of door cards and,............ youve guessed it, its a 3 door also. now im in a predicament. i intend on selling my leather in order to fund my cams. but

£40???? now in my understanding silicon is silicon. if these hoses are made of silicon which is the same as roose or any other manufacturers then why the huge markup? £40 to £320?? obviously its natural for us to think more money means a better product and to steer clear from something that is so much of a drastic difference price wise. does anyone have these running that can comment?

Cheers for that mate. Iv got all the paint in spray cans already. High temp up to 600deg I haven't had a go at it yet. Just waiting to find someone to pressure test the block and head first. Friend of the family runs his own machine shop and engine specialist so waiting to see what he quotes. As well as calling someone local on Monday. If they throw an acid dip in then happy days, if not ill certainly get cracking. I take it there is no problem in using water within the block itself then? As it will drip dry anyway. As for gasket surfaces and holes, I have plenty of masking/duct tape so all b
