MK3 Golf VR6

Recommended Posts

I know this is a Corrado forum but some parts are shared with the VR6..

 

Bought this little beaut to break. Everything is available bar the cylinder head and OBDII gubbins.

 

A list of what the cars got.

 

Spax RSX coilovers

Schmidt Modernlines 16x9 5x100 ET15 with 215/40/16 tyres (x2 federal and x2 other similar make iirc). All are lightly curbed but easily refurbish-able and the tyres have had the side-walls rubbed, but loads of tread

288mm front brakes

Samco Purple(ish) hose kit

Chavvy poopy make steering wheel (but actually feels nice to drive with :lol: )

K&N induction kit

Glass sunroof

Stainless De-Cat Pipe

Scorpion exhaust (twin tailpipe)

Aircon

Good headlights, tail lights and fogs (indicators and middle bits have seen better days)

All switches are working

ABS working

Electric Windows working

 

Everything is available so just drop me a PM or reply to this thread with what you want.

 

More pictures will come as and when they are off the car or upon request (starting stripping it tomorrow).

Hey,

 

the TB is part of the OBDII conversion stuff, sorry.

 

But I may have one lying around in my box of tricks.

How much are the wheels bud?

 

Unsure at the moment as prices and condition for these vary a lot. They look worse than they actually are, no major dents or anything it's just healthy curb rash from slow speed careless parking,.. A few hours, some wet&dry and some elbow grease and they'll be mint again.

 

I need a good £500 back from these to recoup my costs on the car so I'm trying my luck at that price. If I don't get that I'll spend some time and refurbish/powdercoat them and put them up at £600-£700 which seems to be the asking rate for a mint set.

 

The sticker says these were made in April 2011 and the retard has managed to curb each one. Shame really but that's pretty much the story with the entire car :brickwall:

How much for the decat pipe? Thanks

Posted if possible

 

Depending on the make/condition I'd say around £30 posted for a generic one. If it's a brand name like milltek it'll be a little more.

 

I probably wont be getting under the car until I have access to some ramps which could be early next week. Maybe Sunday/Monday if I can blag it.

How much for the coilovers? and will they fit a rado?

 

cheers Rob

 

Yep, will fit a Rado.. Any MK3 Suspicion kit will as far as I'm aware

 

Around £250-300 depending on the full condition when I remove them. I may end up fitting them to mine as the ride/handling was exceptional. If so I'll have some Weitecs up fro grabs for about the £200 mark.

Yep, will fit a Rado, part number matches all MK2/3 Golfs and Corrados with all engines..

They are Hicon GT, unsure of the age as they came on my old G60 from bristolbaron, maybe a year or two? Condition wise they are fresh and fully adjustable.

It will, aslong as you have an OE size battery. I'll take it off today and have a quick look and post up some photo's. £12.50 posted sound ok?

 

How much for the K&N filter mate?

 

£22.50 posted, looks like its got a little fixing bracket included too.

 

Hey man would the samcos be the same as corrado 1s? If so how much?

Cheers

 

Part numbers are different and this engine is OBD2 where as all Corrado VR6's are OBD1 unless they have been converted. I have a OBD1 VR6 in my Corrado so I can match them up and take a look, but from what I've seen the top radiator hose is slightly different as the Radiator outlet in the Golf sits lower, I can't see this posing a major issue. Once the hoses are off I can put them side by side with my original Corrado hoses and see what's what.

 

Price wise I'll be thinking around the £100-150 mark depending on their condition.

When you say lights are we talking headlights? Foglights or both?

 

If its just the headlights call it £100 the lot, plus postage..

 

But, I have had experience with posting panels and they arrived dropped and bent (mainly a bonnet was dropped so hard the very back corners near the windscreen bent 90degrees!) - I normally pack them in massive mountain bike boxes from halfords, 5-6 layers of bubblewrap or foam, secure each corner with more cardboard and then pack the box out with more cardboard or packing foam. Other than putting it on a pallet and wrapping it in a hard box I don't know what else I can do for packing them.

 

Either way panels are not usually covered under insurance due to thier delicate nature with couriers. I would be more than happy to post them and pack them to the best of my ability, but I don't recommend it and wont accept responsibilty. It's your call though.

 

Alternatively whatever the courier cost would be, I could make a trip to Newcastle at some point in the next few weeks as my girlfriends parents are from there, so it would be a little more worth while on my part. This way you'll get un damaged goods and I get browniew points :)

I read the corrado kit has 2 extra hoses. I'm guessing maybe for an auto or air con or sumin. Yea if you could match them up to yours and let me know if they're the same or similar that'd be great. No rush tho .

 

Nice 1 mate

The Corrado kits come with two air pipes for the TB/ISV area which OBD2 Golfs don't require. As far as I'm aware.

Major differences or subtle? Are they fit-able?
