My brother finale got himself a mk2 vr6, i had a go today and nearly s**t my pants this thing sounds like its been possessed hes getting some more baffles put in the custom exhaust that its got coz it sounds like a god dammed rally car. And the acceleration Jesus, I drove nice and steady down the street got on a local dual carrage way and nailed it my god.I got past 3ooorpm and its all went crazy. I have been working out all day what parts of my body i can sell to get the cash to buy one. I got back in my 8v and i felt very inadequate oh well.
FOR SALE 1 WELL USED KIDNEY Â£4000 :grin:

going rate is about £1000 for a kidney. Also used ones are a lot better as he unused ones take f**king ages to grow!
-
Not sure what the Telford show is like but i'll be going for the first time this year.
There is also an early one in February at Staffordshire County Showground that looks like it might be decent.

Ah nice one mate i might have to try and get round my mrs to let me go to that one aswell :smiley:
-
lol! know the feeling mate :laugh:
i've got my 16v booked in at TSR engineering in Feb for some goodies to be sorted out.... i've managed to persuade "the boss" that its "an investment", however, also explaining that i'll need to stay overnight on my lonesome is another matter!!

I call my Mrs but shes good to me really id been going on about a cheap janspeed back box id seen on ebay but she put her foot down and said we cant afford it you know the usual stuff. I came home yesterday to find she had ordered it for me and guess what, she had ordered the right one for my 8v. I was chuffed to bits she punched me when i mentioned smoked cross hairs.........lol  :grin:

manual vr6 or auto?
by vr6 do you mean the 2.8 straight 6, or do you mean with a supercharger?
i am also considering this path of happiness. :laugh:
-
Yes mate its a manual 2.8 hes having a few teething problems its running brock b1s 9x16 :smiley:
-
they aren't straight sixes...
They are all narrow angle v6s, 15degree rather than 60degree angle...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vr6 <- Some info bout it on wiki...
-
Thanks for the input....
-
And after all that he might be selling it now lol because its to hard a ride and to loud for him hes going to get a mrk 3 vr6 highline for a bit more comfort what a girl lol. I will post on the cars for sale section when he sells it .........
-
Persuade him to do a trade in for yours!!
I want a VR6 so much, i heard a corrado VR6 hammer it past the other day, sounded awesome! Its a tough battle between the G-Lader roar of the G60 with the added supercharger whine or the VR6 sound, i cant even describe it its that good!
so is his the 2.8 out of the golf, not the 2.9 from the corrado?
-
Yea his is the 2.8 from the golf you don't know how much i want this car, but I'm happy with my 8v at the mo. The vr had a straight through exhaust on it but it was mad so he had a silencer fitted to it and its still mad lol. It has B1 Brock's 16x9s and front koni adjustables that snap your spine even on soft setting. Hes been after one of these for ages and now he has it he wants rid theres nothing wrong with the car but hes got a kid now and its just to hardcore for him hes only had it for a couple of weeks now it is mad but you know how it is when you make a big mistake. I think he will be happy if he can make his money back on it then hes looking for some thing a bit more comfey i think hes a poof but thats just my opinion lol. He either wants a 5 door vr6 mk3 high line or wait for it a Volvo s60 2.0 turbo a true family motor at least he will be safe and hes changing his name to Sven and hes going to grow a big porn tash........ :grin:
-
lol
If it were me id just buy a quiet exhaust and sort the suspension out.
-
Yes me to mate but hes done the unthinkable and brought a Volvo. As from this moment in time i no-longer have a brother i was once proud of his cars, now i am ashamed to say his name lol.
-
lol :grin:
-
Just bought a VR6 engine (2.8 version) with loom and ECU. Dont suppose theres a guide floating around the net on fitting these? Also do i have to hammer one section of the engine by for clearance for the cams? Or am i thinking about another engine? :p
-
Yes me to mate but hes done the unthinkable and brought a Volvo. As from this moment in time i no-longer have a brother i was once proud of his cars, now i am ashamed to say his name lol.
well seeing as though he has got his new car, then i am sure he can lend you the VR for a while! :rolleyes:
-
What a good idea ill have to run that past him as i over take him in his grandad wagon with his matching slippers and tartan blanket in the back lol......... :grin:
