My New VR6 *Little Update Thread*

[HaydEn]

Looking good mate Just read through your thread

Could always leave the 20mm adapters on the front, put the 15s there.
15mm adapters on the back, 16's there. then get 25mm adapters for the backs and it'll be all sweet

Only done it this way cause I was too excited/way to hot to stuff around grinding the calipers :p I like how it looks. Will have to wait till an engine is in it and see what the go is.

So yesterday, I thought it was time to fix the headliner that had sagged during the cars neglect period.



Also thought I would see what it would look like with no centre console.

Can't really see it in that image, but a few things were dirty/rusty so I cleaned them up. Namely the bracket for the dash.


While its like this and there is nothing underneath I think I might go with the o2j shifter box swap. I want the flashy b&m short shifter, but don't want a Notchy feel.

Looking good!

Becoming increasingly more bored I wrecked my steering wheel. Hopefully I can get a mk4 or 5 one to replace it.

Also found some red stripe stuff from my bumpers left over.




Had to hold the airbag one as the tape wasn't sticky.
