Ronan 0 Posted February 12, 2007 Hi, I just wondered if there are many examples of smoothed engine bays on G60's out there? I don't know of many off-hand, and I know that obviously there's a lot of pipework, but I can get rid of some wiring and bottles etc.... cheers!

Ronan 0 Posted February 13, 2007 Anyone? Maybe can Mods move this to Engine Bay? I might get a response then... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ronan 0 Posted February 14, 2007 seen a couple on there, doesn't seem like many people have got rid of the battery, header tank, wiring, and washer bottle on a g60....i'll have a looky round. How comes people don't do it to the G? Lots of people smooth 20VT bays Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted February 23, 2007 go over to Dubforce.net and have a look at Dubwhizz's Oettinger G60 golf... It had basically the same G60 engine bay as a Corrado to start with, but it sure as hell don't look standard now! 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

G60SC_Stoney 0 Posted February 27, 2007 think its quiet hard to smooth a G60 engine bay, i can see a lot of work went into the one above but....it still looks too busy with all the boost pipes and cables etc. its easier to do with a vr6 or 16v as they are just one chunk of metal and you can easily hide all the unsightly wires etc away frrom view...

Ronan 0 Posted February 27, 2007 Mine will hopefully look something like that but i'll be keeping the scuttle, and it will be body coloured.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted February 27, 2007 that's the BEFORE pic of Matt's engine... he'd just got it painted and ready to go over to Holland last year when that pic was taken... The AFTER pic will look even better as he's aiming to take that bay to "the next level"... 8) There's no reason you can't do that to a 'rado bay... I know 'cos I've considered doing it to J-DUB while she's in bits waiting for me to make my mind up as to what to do to her... ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ronan 0 Posted February 27, 2007 what else is he doing to it then, what's the next level?!? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Henny 0 Posted February 28, 2007 he won't say yet... think much bling and some more colour coding are in order as well as some new boost pipes... :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
