My New VR6 *Little Update Thread*

[HaydEn]

After an unexpected phone call this morning I had to prematurely put my 'joke' wheels back on before my rear spacers showed up.

I'm at the point where I need to cut out my helpers to tuck tyre. Not sure what has happened as I used to tuck a 165/50/15..

With the addition of a much faster car to my collection, I will eventually build a motor for the vr and turn it into a 1/4mi. (Sometimes circuit) mobile.

Rough plans are large cam's (TT28 hopefully use a chipped ECU before resorting to the standalone setup I have in the shed, find someone to do decent head work and a good valve job. Run stock block re-ringed and mk4 head gasket. (Hopefully find a decent 2.9 block cheap, would be ideal but unlikely)

Bought a 42DD test pipe, should be here soon. And then will hopefully get down to WSID for a run and see what happens.

Adaptec spacers turned up this morning so chucked them on:




Pretty sweet setup IMO for those who can't afford expensive or 'hellaflush' wheels. Or those who don't want to run an aggressive setup.

What's size are your adapters Hayden?

[HaydEn]

20mm front
30mm front (aggressive flare job)

I'd go 20mm rear and 15mm front if it was on a stock-ish guard.

Yer look really good in your car, looking up sizes to fill my guards a bit more

[HaydEn]

Spacers on the stockies make it look a lot better. Vr wheels are a cool oem design.


Did you go to 5 stud?

Dude you run out of paint when you did your wheels? Or not checked the caps before you started spraying? The colours are all whack!

[PoDgE]

Ha ha ha looks cool as mate! What size tyre are you running mine look massive compared to yours.

[HaydEn]

Feck you A.

They are a 195/50/15. I was only thinking today how ridiculous a stock 205/55? Would look..
