    It's not driving at the minute though due to one cracked downpipe

    Noice!
    Jeez that downpipe really copped it!! Front engine mount too saggy?
    I'm one of the few mk2 20vt guys in Aus at the moment. Check out my thread in the restorations & projects section! I bought the supposed G60 front mount from GSF but its still way too soft and my engine rocks and jumps around in there pretty bad! Got a Vibra-Technics one on the way before my qpeng downpipe ends up like yours!!
    Did you put a flexor in the exhaust?

    I'm having mapping/fuelling issues with mine too. Are the VR6 lines bigger than the mk2 ones?

    Cheers,
    Wade

    PS; those G60 steelies look hardass!!

    Yeah it's really bad but Qpeng are sending me out a new one. Ben is a gent of the highest degree I have to say and will gladly deal with them again!

    I've looked over your thread a few times before I registered, fair play to you for sticking at it but it's worth it in the end! I had a second habd VT one but am now going fore a solid mount, I'd say I'll love it. I don't mind the vibrations if it helps the feel of the car!!

    There is a flexi in the second part of the downpipe which is perfect.

    Vr6 lines are slightly bigger iirc, I got the tank pump and lines for like $80 and worked 100%. Never had any fuelling issues and car started first time!

    Thanks, I'm thinking of getting them banded to 8's once I get the funds.

    Yea ben and jon have been helpful with me too.

    I just checked ETKA and golf 2, golf 3 GL/CL/VR6 all have the same fuel lines FYI.
