Got these decals VR6 for the 288 mm brake upgrade- comes in a pack of 8 with different sizes - going with white decal and red caliper - like the uprated GTI performance pack calipers basically but with VR6 script. All in delivered £9.00 https://www.amazon.co.uk/snstyling-com-Decal-window-caliper-mirror/dp/B07NFB2H4G/ref=trb_chk_auth?dchild=1&keywords=vw+vr6+brake+caliper+decal&qid=1622890949&sr=8-1&openid.assoc_handle=amazon_checkout_gb&openid.claimed_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.co.uk%2Fap%2Fid%2Famzn1.account.AFAMLAIWPVONXRPEWZ42VV7QLWFA&openid.identity=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.co.uk%2Fap%2Fid%2Famzn1.account.AFAMLAIWPVONXRPEWZ42VV7QLWFA&openid.mode=id_res&openid.ns=http%3A%2F%2Fspecs.openid.net%2Fauth%2F2.0&openid.op_endpoint=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.co.uk%2Fap%2Fsignin&openid.response_nonce=2021-06-05T11%3A05%3A49Z1016637324497292518&openid.return_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.co.uk%2Fsnstyling-com-Decal-window-caliper-mirror%2Fdp%2FB07NFB2H4G%2Fref%3Dtrb_chk_auth%3Fdchild%3D1%26keywords%3Dvw%2Bvr6%2Bbrake%2Bcaliper%2Bdecal%26qid%3D1622890949%26sr%3D8-1%26trb_auth%3D1%26trb_open%3D1%26trb_bid%3Dbuy-now-button&openid.signed=assoc_handle%2Cclaimed_id%2Cidentity%2Cmode%2Cns%2Cop_endpoint%2Cresponse_nonce%2Creturn_to%2CsiteState%2Cns.pape%2Cpape.auth_policies%2Cpape.auth_time%2Csigned&openid.ns.pape=http%3A%2F%2Fspecs.openid.net%2Fextensions%2Fpape%2F1.0&openid.pape.auth_policies=http%3A%2F%2Fschemas.openid.net%2Fpape%2Fpolicies%2F2007%2F06%2Fnone&openid.pape.auth_time=2021-06-05T11%3A05%3A49Z&openid.sig=wTYMwAPruVQJ3Q9Llpf4Y0TyP6Oes8qwiq7%2BaR4nkS0%3D&serial=&siteState=|hasWorkingJavascript.1

Also a solid looking white VR came on today as well for 11k - looks an honest car but has basic interior and maybe a Little over priced by seller.
-
This could be a good one- says its fully been rebuilt up - obviously need to ask the seller the right questions to see if it is a good car - mentions 4k on an engine or if he means that whet he has spent on the car to rebuild it up then - he has just done a minor over haul. Bad advert as does not detail what they have done to the car - notice the reg plate is blanked to so make sure its not a cat car. https://www.facebook.com/groups/905571026181280

Nice set of rare NOS Ottinger alloys here - 16 x 7.5 J. 5x 100 . - good price considering they are new. https://www.ebay-kleinanzeigen.de/s-anzeige/16-oettinger-felgen-neu-5x100-golf-corrado-polo-jetta-gti-vr6/1778324251-223-1925

Oh right will have to watch that then.
-
Cody Corrado just sold one on facebook with no damage- sold within seconds for £60
-
Ok great so its the Hel ones I will get - cheers.
-
The fittings look different on the two brands of hoses I cant tell picture is bad on Good ridge ones on advert.
-
Ate both the manufacturers hoses the same design chap the 2 links you gave same end fittings ? Thanks
-
Thanks Dox, The pads are they the stock ones for 96-98 mk3 vr6 for the 288 mm pads ? Cheers.
-
Im sorry this petition is floored because of the brief daft reason given . Last thing we need is unexperienced youngsters without modern safety aids and lacking experience writing off these cars - all to common. I mean they cant afford to run them either - they will just daily them in most cases. My mate just purchased back a MK3 to rescue it and the kid couldn't afford to run it and basically near as damn destroyed the car in 2 years with bodge jobs and 30k of salty roads. Its a shame more valid reasons were not put forward - just looks like an excuse for youngsters to try and get cheap classic car insurance. I would like the Goverment to do this as it will help young motoring enthusiasts afford classic cars.

Hi, Has anyone got a link for the front brake hoses I need for the 288 mm upgrade- good brands please and stainless steel if possible. Cheers.
-
Looking at the pictures the interior rear bench and seats are a different cloth pattern- that needs sorting before asking this money. I think the seller is trying to get back what he is into the car and maybe more- unfortunately the maths never work on a corrado restoration at present unless your a dealer and get a garage queen off an OAP who dont know what they are worth and rip them off- all to common and they even pretend to be enthusiast as well sometimes the blag artists- makes you puke thinking of them sniffing around the groups trying to build bridges pre sale.
-
The bonnet has lots of holes and moldings underneath so it blends in- I would just cut it mate only you will notice it as everyone will be looking at the schrick with green envy ha.
-
If you can get one with no rot on the body and leather interior that does not need a spray job for around 6 or 7 k that should leave you plenty to spend on the drive train- If you can be patient hold of for some recaro as they are hard to find and sell for 2 k alone. .
-
Oh my will have a look - thanks .
-
Looks a good car- but come on where are the engine trims- your asking top money make sure the car it is complete-as I want the car sorted for that money- you need to watch out for high price cars they still dont need 5 k spending on them - really need to give the car a thorough inspection and make sure the asking price is valid.
-
Good to know. Anyone got a link to the brake hose kit you need ? Dox do the 280 mm G60 upgrade on a Mk2 16v - do i need any hose kit or is it direct fit - I know you need spacers for the BBS RA but I all ready have some fitted. Cheers
-
Are the 288 mm factory Mk3 ones all ATE guys so I know they are genuine ? Thanks
-
Hi ABV, I can confirm the Mk3 does have an option for a 288 mm desribed as RED. NO1 on diagram. https://www.ilcats.ru/vw/?function=getParts&market=RDW&model=GO&modelcode=184&year=1997&group=6&subgroup=615&part=615040&language=en Dox/ Shaun are these correct fitment for the corrado mod ? Thanks https://www.volkswagen-classic-parts.de/en/bremssattelgehause-golf-gti-dbc664.html Its £400 for the set but would have to get carries to - works out to a fair bit so not a great option- .
-
ABV Im not sure about the MK3 - its a GTI I have never owned to be honest- it is possible I suppose that the anniversary edition came with red callipers. Its true when you think about it- the VR6 is heavier then the g60 and more powerful so it is surprising VW did not upgrade the brakes to 288 mm from factory. Thanks Sean I will look on etka later and find the part numbers - be interesting to see if you can still get them new- I could then use my 280 mm from the VR to upgrade on my MK2 golf . Just out of interest if I can find a second hand set- how much does big red roughly charge for refurb. Thanks
-
Does look good with the bigger disc.
