MOAR SORTED MK2's FTMFW, im loving it mate. 300hp would be crazy! Is this a weekend car or a daily?
Im suprized your not beating quicker cars or havnt you raced any?

I have read that a vr6 only adds about 50kg to the front over a 16v and a few UK guys who race them (N/A) swear that with a proper suspension set up there is no difference. I don't know that a 20vt would rinse a vrt, after about 300hp which they can both make prity easy it would just come down to traction wouldnt it? As they say there is no replacement for displacement haha. (Lets not turn it in to a vrt vs 20vt thread)

If you don't mind me asking what did it set you back and wheres the build thread?

Good work tommymac :bigok:

really nice neat job, well done. like the others i would love to see more of it

hey! we're an isolated island 24hours from most other continents, things take time :nana:

erm well its quick but yer it really depends a 1.8t has nothing on a tuned SR in the range im running it at. The dub has cost me 9 points pre 1.8t hahah so im taking it easy! Oh actually i beat a new for falcon gt6 turbo the guy raced me up to 190 and i was still pulling away ! hahah ooops !

its more of a WTF car most people are like o what is that thing o its a old golf oh, then oh why is is going so fast it pretty funny that no one know them here so it means you can surprise people all the time! esp mk4 and mk5 GTI owners there my fav kill!

haaha

hey tommy here is a funny fact for you , the vr6 weighs more over the front so therefore ill get more traction on take off hahaha ;P you gotta drop by one day so i can have a look at it. what brakes u going to go at the front ?
cheers brenton

ah this is true im not bashing the vr6 i think there a harder swap than a 1.8t so props,

im running the 10.4 inch discs and lucas 54 girlings of a mk3 and they are ****house, im going to be done with it and get a set of wilwoods.

lol im just joking around ;) what size wheels you running ?

I was lucky enough to go for a spin in this thing on the weekend.

When it gets to 3500rpm it punches forward hard. Not as insane as Arno's MK1 but I was very impressed, both in speed and the engine bay!

Well done Tom! :party: Makes me wanna frankenstein mine!
