Hey buddy...

I'm your mk3 man in melbourne, along with TIMMEH!
He's got a vr6, and I'm doing a 16v conversion...(see the thread)

As everyone says, suspension first...

Now I have a set of eibach 30mm lowering springs that will fit your car.
Pickup price of $200. I'm in Camberwell.
(excuse the cheap sell)
You may also want to get some koni or bilstein sport shocks to match those to really get the most out of it...

Mounts...

Unless someone else can help me out here, they can get pricey...
I'd love some upgraded mounts to make the car feel a lot sportier, and i asked a mob in the states, black forest industries, but they don't ship international.

Otherwise, speak to the other guys about vr6's...
I have no clue...

But euro tuning is expensive, and not too many places either do the work, or know what they are talking about, or do know what they are talking about but can't be bothered helping you...

Ask as many questions as possible, we need the energy back into this forum!

yeah ive never found anyone local that supplies the up rated engine mounts. I have had to import mine myself from the US. Carshine are good if youre interested in styling although they dont car much stock for mk3s anymroe. very helpful guys. Innital mods like sean suggests should be suspension if its not done yet!
Also some nice ducting to your intake and an exhaust will give u a bit more oomph and will also unleash the VR6 sound.

There are a heap of places in richmond that know their way around a VR6. German Autohaus, QSZ, Euroclass are a couple. I think there are more.. Cant remember off the top of my head.

Oh yeah!
Buy sean's springs!
LOL

Welcome to the Golf World.

cheers fellas for the info - re the engine mounts, noltec in sydney are chargin $160 each with a 10 day turn around but im doubting if its worth it, thinking id rather save the $$ for some performance tuning.

Golf3, in sayin ur the Mk3 guy in melbourne - im assuming ur an extreme Enthusiast, or do u actually work on the cars? and thanks for the offer on the springs but im still lookin around/researching atm, not quite ready to make a move...

...and golf loon, let me hear bout those engine mounts of urs, what r they made of, price, condition.

ill be sure to check out those places in richmond too, cheers tim.

welcome mate, pics of ur ride man...

[golf3]

I'm just stupid and spend all my cash on my car...

And yes, i do all the work on it myself, but i don't do it for a career...

JUST FUN! (only sometimes it's fun)

hey mate , ive got a '94 vr aswell , for the mounts if u want good uprated ones vf engineering are the best altho pricy. u can get them for a few shops in the states and they will ship to here. but once u get these they will never break. chip exhaust sus thats what i would do altho i got my sus done first lol . if your goin to be keeping the car i would prob spend that bit more and get coilovers instead of springs and shocks tmtuning will sell u heaps of mk3 stuff of there website u should have a look.

Dunno ... I wouldn't think too long. Geez I remember paying a damn site more than 200 bucks for a set of Eibachs! I think last time I tooled up the bill for springs and struts (including fitting)was around $1700 ... and that was quite a few years ago.

Theres good advice here.
Everything about a VR6 is pretty sweet out of the box but the std suspension can spring (excuse the pun) some nasty surprises as soon as you step off the freeway. Get the springs and then shell out for the struts to suit. You won't be sorry. Make it go faster later.
