g0ldf1ng3r 15 Posted June 12, 2015 lovely jubbly! mechanic rang & the VR is ready to be collected it seems there was a pin hole in my oil cooler somewhere & it was causing the leak when pressurised new penny washer on the rear exhaust heat shield mean no more annoying little squeak when going over small bumps - that took me a little bit to work out I can tell you & freshly refurb'd speedlines now have my bridgestone tread on them & ready to roll just need to get to work on getting the centre caps painted to match oh yeah & the small issue of trying to fit 3 rado's on my drive lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g0ldf1ng3r 15 Posted June 16, 2015 VR update: oil leak fixed new penny washer on the rear exhaust heat shield - stopping it from going 'twang' over small sharp bumps bridgestones swapped over to refurb'd speedlines (centre caps pending refurb)....

g0ldf1ng3r 15 Posted June 16, 2015 I keep finding myself glancing at the VR in the work car park & im liking the black wheels & the decision to go shiny rather than matte Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

robrado974 1 Posted June 17, 2015 The VR is looking nice . I've got to fix my heatsheild too . As soon as you hit 2.5 k revs it rattles in a nasty tinny sound . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As soon as you hit 2.5 k revs it rattles in a nasty tinny sound . thanks m8 :) im hoping to get the few scabby parts of paint whipped over quickly to get me through until I can get a full respray done lol the twangy kinda noise mine made was making me think I had an issue with my rear top mounts or KW strut - such a loud noise for such a small part Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SR_Neale 10 Posted June 25, 2015 You lost the valver once could you live with your self if you lost it again? I couldn't Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g0ldf1ng3r 15 Posted June 25, 2015 You lost the valver once could you live with your self if you lost it again? I couldn't hmmm now that is a good question I think possibly giving up the VR & valver for a VRT monster could make it worth it though I would probably remove the Kamei skirts first that said, I do smile every time I see the valver on the drive again lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted June 25, 2015 Yep. Would be good to have a local GTG. Though would arguably make some sense to head over to the VW meet held in Nuneaton every Wednesday by Bally? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g0ldf1ng3r 15 Posted June 25, 2015 indeed there are quite a few of us in the same kind of area unfortunately I have only just learnt of a classic meet taking place this evening in stratford upon avon at the museum - way too late notice for me & other I would imagine however, I will speak to my friend who told me of it & also have a google to see if they are regular I know that for Cov, leamington & myself stratford is only half hour ish away how would it be for you Tan? & others? im thinking maybe we could all do the next meet if there is one Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carat1990 10 Posted June 25, 2015 Yeah i'm up for Nuneaton hun :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
