VR6*MarkOfTheBeast*

cheers guys... all wheels are stamped with the same offset. all adaptors are 20mm thick. I've been told by a good friend and veteran VW fella that MK2's share this issue and it's something to do with road camber? VW speed also said that all vw's stick out on one side more than the other. herisites...do your wheels sit in the arches EXACTLY the same all the way round?..(congrats on the pic of yours in the mag 8) )

having just fitted my newly refurbed RS's i noticed that the neaside pair of wheels stick out a good 1-2cm (about half inch in old money) !! http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t310 ... G_4072.jpg I'm told this is common? I'm using 20mm adaptors and 16x8" rs's...problem is the offside rear sits within the arch and the neaside sticks out too much (pictured) so even with the arches rolled i think i need to lose about 1 or 2 cm's. i know i can get 15mm spacers but is there any other way i can loose a few mm? cheers guys

As title really, i fancy some orange side's. I heard UK corrado's never had them so what options have i got in the VAG world? pics would be a bonus. cheers guys (and gal's?) Rick.

Schweet.... cheers fella's!

hi people, I'd like to remove the wiper from my 94 VR BUT i want to be able to put it back to standard for sale when the time comes so bodyworks a no no. Is there a blank available or can one from another VAG vehicle be used? cheers, rick.

not shure...is that a common problem?

Hi people, having a problem with my 94 vr with cobra full closure cat1. here's the syptoms: -occasionally the car will open via the fob and when i turn the key there is nothing there at all. no mfa no turn over, nothing. somtimes it seems a little knock like shutting the the door or opening and closing the bonet does the trick and she starts up with no further problems. hapened again this monring, the alarm was going off and refused to reset via the fob. i checked the battery connetions (which seemed fine) closed the boent and she fired up as normal?!!? -when using the fans, heated screen, radio, and lights sometimes the engine looses power switching one or two of the four off sorts the problem out. duff battery/alternator? thanks for the help, rick

thinking about putting one of theese on: WIECHERS SUMP GUARDS http://www.eurotek-online.com/content/catalogue anyone seen one? heard anything about them?

thanks. dubsport put the coilovers on two weeks ago and the photo's were taken soon after so it still had'nt settled. the back has come down a bit more since but i'l have a look and maybe give it another cheeky drop at the back. cheers!

Not THAT low? i've seen lower.

i'm getting sick of cr**ping myself whenever i come accros speed bumps/multistorys etc. i'm going to fit a smaller front splitter/remove the cat. this should stop the scraping but leaves the sump all on it's own down there. is there any way i can protect it?

sick of it catching on everything! any idea? cheers.

they are BBS RS-with polished alu dishes too! only had them on a week and it's only rained twice.the dishes looked terrible after seven days! spent three hours last night poishing them back up! got some protection stuff on them now so i'l see how that goes. :roll: might hang on to them thinking about it! ta.

got a set of MINTY VR five spoke speedlines.they really are in exelent condition and prob had a refub at some point i think. have a nice set of bridgesotne tyres on i think also in very very good condition. were on my VR when i bough it. got some BBS now instead. can't decide wether the keep them for when i sell it in future or cash in. suppose it depends how much i could get for them! heres the pic from the advert for the car. any ideas? cheers.

intresting! thanks so is the rs a heavy wheel then? are we talking magnesium wheels?

Not an option. i am in love with my BBS :D . just out of intrest, is that a wieght or rolling radius issue? i'm not really into swapping things round/taking stuff out for a quarter run either, IMO unless you leave it like that then it's not a true reflection of the cars performance.

oh..that sorts that out then. saves me a few quid too, cheers osv! just had a look at the pic's of your car. very very nice.

Hi all, bought my vr about three weeks ago. it's got a miltek cat back stainless system and a K&N pannel filter and as far as i know the rest is standard. problem is my mate has run 14.5 quarters in his polo G40. a standard vr should do a quarter in 15.something so i was wondering if i could spend a £500 or aso and knock the quarter mile time down to the mid/low 14's in time for GTI fest! i don't want to strip the car out! cheers!

got theese a couple of weeks ago off edition 38... BBS RS 16x8's polished alu dish with slimmer style centres.

'ice grey violet' for me...or as someone said...'nice gay violet' :lol:

thats wierd..it's a 94 VR6.

thanks mate, what did the 50mm come on...is it a VAG part then? ta

Been using the forum looking for a car for the last few months. Bought this a couple of weeks ago. Wheels and coilovers went on on Thursday, had a busy weekend so just stuck it thru the car wash after I dropped the misses off at work at Trafford centre and got these snaps last night…luckily I found a bit of a shelter because it was raining, which is unusual for Manchester. Could look cleaner! Got a few things I need a bit of help on: -Front splitter is currently taking a beating. Anyone know where I can get a smaller one?…I heard you can get a 60mm? -Spoiler is working when button in cabin is pressed but not automatically…any ideas on why and possible fixes? -Bonnet has been shut on the bonnet stand making a huge ugly nipple, cracked the paint and gone rusty. Anyone recommend a good body shop in Manchester? Apparently if will need baking and the one’s I’ve used before can’t do this. -Anyone know the paint code/name?…is it ice blue violet? -I want to sell the Kenwood head unit that’s in there at the mo and replace it with a VAG cd/tuner? Or one that looks standard looking. Any ideas? Ta!

how you getting on with this mate? i'm thinking the same thing.the vr6 i've just bought has a terrible kenwood silver thing in it that flashes orange.looks totally out of place. been looking on ebay.have you considered the audi & skoda symphony cd player. don't think that would look too bad being VAG and all?
