24v 2.8 golf 3 vr6

[VR6child]

that is completely sweet. nice work.

[dubbed]

Ah thought so. Nice work - but is there a noticeable difference with the 12v? I.e is it worth all the effort??

Nice one man, I was hoping you'd show me some 24 valve lovin'

I'd consider bolting a 24v head to mine if it wasn't too hard and gave a nice feel to the car, so I'm keen for a report when ready too!

Dubbed: the 4motion engine is a really nicely revving engine because the doubled amount of valves make it want to rev. If you're using it with a 6speed gearbox like the 4motions do, then it goes nuts! But in the long run mk3 vr6's and bora 4motion's are supposedly matched with speed because of weight difference

Mate(s) here stuck the 24v in a mk3 wagon - full and total groundup conversion, subframes, rear beam, mk4 interior etc...
A real sleeper this one!

well compared to the 12v, 4motion engines respond far better to modifications than the 12v as the head flows far better = more efficient.

Wow... nice one mate!! Great to see something new and different being done down under Look forward to hearing more about it soon

[MattyT]

Well I'll be... nice one!

Why no VVT?? Why is this a good thing?

What flywheel/clutch are you using ?

[VOLKSMAN]

while engine was out i took advanatge and so matt had changed the clutch to a LUK oem clutch equivalent to a sachs which are famous for their strength and clamp holding abilities (With a torque rating of near 300 ft/lb) you cant go wrong.

the standard 228mm flywheel is being used and will hold up well for this conversion.

here is a pic of the clutch in my dub, generally found in most vr6's from factory .
