  1. Depends how cruddy it is. Mine was awful so i used very fine emery tape. Loop it round the can and add a blob of polish then work away. Comes up in no time.
  2. I would like one of the Koni adjusters please.
  3. Received today, many thanks!
  4. Cheers Dave, that's some good info. Did you make a twist adapter like the one in the link; http://store.034motorsport.com/products/engine-components/vw-vr6/throttle-body-adapter-obd1-vr6-to-obd2-vr6-tb.html [ATTACH]78499[/ATTACH] I was trying to make an adaptor without the twist. Haven't got around to fitting yet should be a couple of weeks till I know. Do you have any other engine mods, cams ect?
  5. No probs, It's going to take a couple of days to write up from my notes. If anything needed has been chopped, I'm sure it can be replaced.
  6. If you are going to use the OBD2 ECU, you need to use the OBD2; throttle body, manifold, engine loom, harness from Fuse Box to ECU and front engine harness. I'm just writing up a mini-guide to how I adapted the harness, will post here later.
  7. I think the distributer version of the leads are longer. Check this thread; http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?t=64245
  8. That's a great price! I need one of these for an Omega as it happens.
  9. Good idea, I'm using one of these; http://www.verdictmotorsports.com/Volkswagen_12v_VR6_Coil_Insulator_Saver_low_temp_p/0137.htm You can see it's the brown plate in the picture above. Still no problem fitting the leads, maybe they are a different make/length.
  10. Sorry you've had problems, I've checked the data sheet and you are right. http://www.bosch-motorsport.de/media/catalog_resources/Double_Fire_Coil_3x2_Datasheet_51_en_2778235019pdf.pdf Should look like this; [ATTACH=CONFIG]78373[/ATTACH] ↑ This only works for the base Bosch coilpack 0 221 603 447 ↓ or similar [ATTACH=CONFIG]78374[/ATTACH] If in doubt follow continuity from here; ][ATTACH=CONFIG]78375[/ATTACH] I suspect your coilpack with the connectors on the top may be a beru one?
  11. If the engine loom side is OK, the twist lock connector could be held in place with a couple of socket cap screws if you drill and tap the metal bracket above and below the connector. Otherwise you can de-pin and use your existing OBD1 connectors, plus you could also use the big rubber boot on the OBD1 harness which the OBD2 looms don't seem to have.
  12. Hey, no problem, these things take time.
  13. They sound like the regrind version mate. Schimmel cams don't have a VW stamp, just some other letters stamped on them.
  14. Cheers Dave, that would be good, I'm attempting this next month. Are you using the obd1 or obd2 throttle cable mounting bracket?
  15. Should take between 2 and 2.5 seconds to shut completely allowing time for the Idle stabilisation valve to then kick in.

    Vr6 obd2 ecu

    How about this one; eBay item: 221292005131 VW Golf 2.8 VR6 ECU 021 906 256 021906256 0261203968969 0 261 203 96 Will prob have immobiliser though, what kind of problems do you have?
  17. After 2 of these please. Just the bit on the left... [ATTACH]78307[/ATTACH]
  18. I'm pretty sure the 12pin connector is for a cruise control ECU, will post part numbers later to confirm. I have a loom similar to this also without the ambient air temperature sensor and an early golf loom which has it, maybe something to do with the later climatonic system? The early golf loom seems less trouble.
  19. It's worth turning the engine over by hand after refitting the tensioner bolt, it's possible to overfill the bolt with oil making it difficult to turn by hand. This is much easier to get right with the rocker cover off.
  20. Ive found that the eBay ones require glue or tape to stay in place.
