  • Mk3 Golf vr6,Air,BBS

    Well used to have a pearl white corrado then had a mk3 Golf G60 and always fancied a VR6 and found this fine example about 2 years ago, only 1 owner with 65k mikes on it, paint work was poop as it was sat for 6 years, at 1st was not going to change much but one thing lead to another

    Here's few pics from the last year


    Here's the 1st few pics when I got it home





    Engine still needs a good clean up



    Coilovers and wheels on and all red rears



    Rear and debadged



    Also gave the engine a quick clean

    Before



    After



    Quick pic from edition last year



    Here's a little update

    A shot from a recent meet



    Then I smashed the sump plug off a few days later





    All fixed



    Had the wiper hole smoothed out






    Well decide to go down the air ride route, picked up a kit cheap, needed new bags and got them rebuilt at the same time at rayvern,

    So car in its new home for a while



    Strip it down last week







    Went for suede in the boot build and sprayed the tank crackly grey







    Water trap fitted



    Chassis notch done








    Front bags in



    Rear bags in and lines ran



    Boot getting there



    Wiring



    Switches and gauges mounted



    1st time ran and pretty happy how it sits







    Just all the fine tuning left to do



    Gauges



    Boot





    Aired up



    I did have 10mm spacers on the rear so fitted 5mm spacers and it fits better on the rear now



    Aired down





    Few changes to the car biggest being the wheels

    Trail fitting



    All new tyres fitted and cleaned



    Then the car went of to the bodyshop to have bonnet, roof with Ariel taken out and smoothed and rust on the rear quarter done

    Picked it up today and fitted wheels

          This, please go back.

          Both setups look great though.

                Another reason for the change is the Schmidts we're not the look I was going for, I'm bored of poke and wanted a more classy look

                  One of my favourite mk3s, are you going to space the engine and put a 32 sump on for more lows?

                      Yep that is on the todo list as the engine sits on the floor, also going to to get rid of as much I can on the engine, also thinking of supercharging it
