This place sells the displacers too for 780 euro. http://www.rp-motorsport.de/en/index.htm

Sounds like your small bearings in the top of the charger are knackered. The old belt is more slack and when you fit the new belt it's pulling the cogged wheels closer together. Just a guess though! :?

I agree with the above in that you would be better off fitting a LSD as it's much more cost effective. By fitting a 4wd system your car will not only weigh more but there are also more driveline loses. It's worth it if you have 300+hp but with 200/250 it's not. Unless of course you are not doing it for performane issues but for just having something different. Like me :D . Jay

Late mk3 gti one such as AGG or ABF are multi layer steel too.

Well it seems pretty awesome to me!

That sounds ok. 1 litre should do you fine.

Hi Veedubbed Yes. There are not many 16vg60 here. In fact there are not may g60 at all. Here's a few things on my engine!

Thanks guys. I only just noticed this as i have not been around on here much. I think i will be the only one in oz for a while with a 16vg60. :) Watch out for the next project. A twin turbo 24v 2.8l 4 motion corrado. Watch this space!

It sounds to me like the compression ratio is to high. The knock sensor will be telling the ecu to back everything off which is why the a/f meter is going off the scale. I had a similar problem a few years ago when i was running a 2l tall block and g60 head on standard compression. I then stacked up 2 head gaskets and it solved it. See how it runs if you drop off the boost pipe and run without the supercharger.

Out of interest, what sort of compression ratio are you running on the engine?

The standard injectors with stock pulley and chip will run fine if you take it easy and set up the co ok.

Something else that might effect it is that your using the abs unit from a 4-motion but without a haldex connected to it. Might be telling the abs unit somethings up. Can you rig up a cable from the abs ecu to the haldex ecu temporarally.

Congrats jay. You've beaten me to it. :salute:

The part no of the bolt is N 044 721 1 it's a M8-125mm long.There's a washer too which is N 901 791 02.

Should be fine. I,ve been towing trailers with my g60 without problems so the vr6 should be fine.
