  5. How does the VR6 fare against some of the other cars? Im also a bit worried about taking a 10+ year old car that might end up over heating or something :?

  9. I noticed a slightly better throttle response with the k&n panel filter, the engine felt more eager. No difference in noise tbh though

  14. Which is why I said a NONE VR6 Corrado! IE, not including the VR6. I was a member of the owners club for the whole time I owned the car, http://www.306gti6.com Believe me when I say it's 0-60 is 7.2 and 147mph top speed. I have a top gear download vid that says all this if you like. As well as everyone over on the 6 forum. 6 close ratio gears, 167bhp. Read some of the pdf reviews people have put up from mags. Around the track (poss 5th gear), it was marginally faster than the Civic Type R, mainly so they say due to the great handling and gearing. I prefer the VR6, so no argument here. Ah ok, sorry :oops:
  15. How do you mean "beat it"? Looks? In a straight line? Better handling? Did it feel as good to drive as the Corrado does? They are different cars, the GTI-6 was faster, both on twisties and a straight line. (0-60 7.2secs top speed 147mph). 6 Gears! The C is more of a cruiser I'd say. Nicer on m-way but I felt more confident in the GTI-6 on B Roads. Thankfully the VR6 came along and made up for the speed! Given a choice, I'd go for a C in my present situation. With kids, a 6 would be better. Back on topic, I know what you mean about go with what you like. Jay, would you do all that again knowing now how long it took you? Also, would you start another project of that size now? No way is the GTI-6 faster! VR6 - 0-60 6.2secs and 146mph , I thought the GTI-6 was more like 0-60 8.5secs and 137mph? The thing about the VR6 is that you don't tend think it's that quick because it is so smooth, thats until you glance down at the speedo! I know the handling on the GTI-6s are highly praised but I don't know whether it is better than a well sorted VR6?
  16. You should be very pleased for yourself young man 8)
