MissUse 0 Posted May 12, 2010 Does anyone happen to know the ARP part number for the conrod bolt kit. I'm finding 204-6006 everywhere but not sure if this is right for the 2.9 VR6 (ABV) engine? Cheers :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MissUse 0 Posted May 12, 2010 Brill, cheers Dude. I was fairly certain but you never know sometimes :roll: I shall get ordering. Just outta interest, who did you order from? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The_Dude 0 Posted May 12, 2010 CNC Motorsport. It was the cheapest I could find at $90.85, came to $101.80 when all was said and done. Even if I have to pay import tax it'll work out cheaper than the 95 quid english companies seem to want (if my shonky maths is correct! lol) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MissUse 0 Posted May 12, 2010 I would order from the states but I'm impatient and want to start the rebuild at the weekend. :grin: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
poll250 0 Posted May 12, 2010 I have a set of ARP conrod bolts going if you're interested? Took my sump off to fit them yesterday, only to discover there was already a set in there. Let me know if you're interested... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MissUse 0 Posted May 13, 2010 Just caught this before putting an order in. What do you want for them? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
poll250 0 Posted May 13, 2010 Say £80 posted? They're still sealed in the packaging, but I had to rip the packaging into 4 pieces to fit in my luggage BTW. Can probably post them tomorrow if you wanted. PM me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

poll250 0 Posted May 13, 2010 Yeah! Bit suprising as it didn't have ARP head bolts (does now :D) Sure saved me a bit of time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pete_griff 0 Posted May 13, 2010 Yeah! Bit suprising as it didn't have ARP head bolts (does now :D) Sure saved me a bit of time. :scratch: well that's a strange way round of doing things! personally i would be more concerned about replacing head bolts a fair bit before i thought about the con-rod bolts on a vr... oh well - all is good now 8) without mentioning names/garages etc - "someone" was running a supercharged vr that had the install done by a "reputable" garage and it was still using the stock head bolts!!! perhaps not such a good idea force feeding an engine that has stretch bolts methinks! needless to say the car in question is currently off the road; shame really for the garage overlook something a simple as that.

MissUse 0 Posted May 17, 2010 Hi Andy. Cheers for the easy transaction mate :) They arrived safe and sound on Saturday morning. They are not yet in the car on account of having a mayhem weekend and a poorly daughter. Typical timing for our household :roll: but I'm sure they'll be in shortly. Cheers again. 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
