Hi I'm after the complete aux water pump system for a project I'm working on Including the wiring, relays and sensors Thanks Dav.

Hello mate do you have the Aux water pump ?

Thanks Steve yep the rear is standard and the gearbox mount is the tdi one (heavy duty?) it was a proper pain to change though i had to remove the bracket. do you knoe the torque setting? Thanks Dav.

Hello Just done a load of work on my VR amongst the things I changed was the rear engine mount. Plus points: I have greatly reduced engine movement Negative points: seem to have a lot more vibration now? I have a VT front mount fitted already but I remember there being some kind of trick like letting the engine idle for a while with out the mount nuts tightened up the let them settle in? True???? Thanks Dav

Cool Just use a sharp chisel, should come off clean

Engine is being put togeather, thanks for your help. Dav.

May have to rethink the raceware, the s3 internals were supposed to be strong enough, but one banana rod later...

Nope not for a VR, J.E direct replacement forged pistons for a BAM (s2) engine, Pauter Rods and Race Ware fasteners. Best get the block checked by a machine shop to make sure, even though the honing looks like new…

The thrust side is still showing all the original honing marks. The engine was form and S2 and it bent a conrod after fitting a larger turbo, thus the move to forged internals. Thanks for the info.

Thanks chaps The bores still has all the honing marks and is in good condition, so do you think it will still need re-honing when fitting the forged pistons?

Thanks Just the same as you would any nornal rings?
