SOLD SOLD SOLDHaving a clear out of my shed, as much as I'd like to use it, it's just a bit too small for me now! Looking for £150 Ono to you lot. I've owned loads of bmx's and this is the best ive had by far. Really light and no nocks or rattles when riding. Demolition hubs and calipers Fsa the pig headset 3 piece cranks Slam bars Brand new grips and bar ends. 1 new tyre ( other 1 looks newish too) Just thort I'd see if any1 on here wants it before it goes on eBay . Or if people want parts I may strip it and sell seperatly !! Located in flitwick bedfordshire Can maybe sort out bringing it to a show to collect if any interest . (early edition, santapod ) Cheers ben

A few more bits for sale. If any use to anyone Let me know. All parts will be chucked on friday if no one wants!! CHEEEAAPP :)

Oh that's a beech! I'll leave em for now anyway mate. Lookin at this swap, I don't think I'll have the dosh. Cheers bud

Hi rob. Unsure what the replacement has on it yet so I may need it. If not I'll let you know :)

Nice! How much did u get the g60 box for? ( if u don't mind me askin :))

Cool that's great thanx alot . I take it I'll need to sorce a whole g60 box? Are you breaking the engine from the golf you've got by any chance? Lol

Yea I was wondering if it had the plastic rocker. Sweet ! Any info on the belts? Do I simply just put them on I'll try source a rado box but if not is the g60 final drive an option?

Cheers EnthusiastOwned Is changing the cams needed? Or just better performance at top end ? Here what I got He sed the timing chain guide rails have been done. Is this the tensioners? It's from a 95 golf "very clean inside and out". It does look v clean in the pics but untill I go to pick it up I won't know for sure. I'm looking to do it the cheapest I can really as its just a replacement. It isn't included but would the golf vr gearbox go in? Cheers Ben

Part numbers are different and this engine is OBD2 where as all Corrado VR6's are OBD1 unless they have been converted. I have a OBD1 VR6 in my Corrado so I can match them up and take a look, but from what I've seen the top radiator hose is slightly different as the Radiator outlet in the Golf sits lower, I can't see this posing a major issue. Once the hoses are off I can put them side by side with my original Corrado hoses and see what's what. Price wise I'll be thinking around the £100-150 mark depending on their condition. I read the corrado kit has 2 extra hoses. I'm guessing maybe for an auto or air con or sumin. Yea if you could match them up to yours and let me know if they're the same or similar that'd be great. No rush tho . Nice 1 mate Ben

In skint now after buying a few bits this weekend. There was a genuine corrado 1 on eBay a few days ago goin for 70, wouldn't really wanna spend that much for an aftermarket 1 so I'll leave it for now. It's something I want rather than need :) Cheers anyway man

Hey man would the samcos be the same as corrado 1s? If so how much? Cheers

Sweet cheers. Any difference between dizzy n coilpack engines? Mines a coilpack but not sure about the golf 1. If not will my coilpack bolt on? I've bought a 100,000 mile engine (new chain guides) for 60 quid! Would it be worth doing the chains aswell while it's accessible ? Also the engine has no belts on it! Is it just a case of fitting new ones and away you go? Or do they have to be put on a certain way? I haven't really done much engine work when the engines out so any tips/comments really appreciated. Or if there's a thread on something like this already that I could read though? Cheers Ben

Hey guys I've had a search but can't find a solid answer. Would this swap straight over in place of the 2.9? Not the obd2 stuff, just the block and head? Is it just a case of fitting all my original stuff to the 2.8 head and block? Cheers Ben

24th June at 23:28 Congrats dude :)

Hi mate that's a right batch! StueyB had a pair i think. Don't know how much the postage would be though ! Good luck Ben

I want one! but a bit to pricey for moi.

Na mate only have what's pictured sorry.

Hey man parcel was dropped at post office on Saturday . Cheers Ben

It's on it's way to you mate. Was dropped off Saturday so shouldn't take too long. Cheers bud

Hey man 8vmatt supplied my headlight switch. Iirc, my lights wouldn't turn off, that's why I needed a new switch . May be the cure to ur problem too but I don't really know much about electrics. Drop him a pm maybe?

Depends how low you go and et. I've got 8x16 and 9x16 on mine and it's fine atm with 30mm drop. Goin lower after the Mot tho .

Hey dave could I grab both sides ? Cheers ben

Wahey!! I've just been on the fone to elephant and as long as I have the policy number and company name I can use the no claims I accumulated! Win :D So with my dad on the policy i got quoted £688....…......! As long as it stays in that area somewhere il be smiling all the way to the bank! Haha Recieved the BMC from corrado16 aswell. It dosent look quite right! I was reading a thread not so long ago about fitting it the right way around, and looking at it it looks like the same was done on this ! The end you can see the filter in should be nearest the headlight surely? The other side just looks like a inwards rubber cone, and the stickers the wrong way up lol. Back soon with more pics( off of my drive :) )

Yea totally! My friend just this second called me and said there's a way to keep your no claims so I'll have a look at that when I'm home. Cheers for the heads up mate I'll get on the blower later . Any recommendations? Just had a look at valvers :(
