well guys i have the VR back on the road as from saturday. I had to replace the timing chain, replace exhaust valves, guides etc.... but is now running sweet.
caught up with a few friends, one being a mate who bought my old MK1. had a little photo shoot.
oh and also a shot of the polished manifold and the VDO oil pressure gauge with a 42 draft design guage holder.
cheers

cheers Mischa, but i didnt fix it. i may have connected a few hoses etc but cheers to my old man. As he being a mechanic i appreciate his time to fix my car after his work where he has battled with mitsubishis and mazdas lol. He may have taken his time but he did a very good job... he told me he didnt wanna use any part that looked half ok lol, so it should last me a while now.
