Nice work Steve, looks like the wheels were a pain in the bum to get apart.

I guess all the hard work is coming together as I know you have put a lot of time into your car
It will look hot when the wheels are done and on the car

I better hurry up and get more done to my VR6

It will be interesting to see how 9inch wide wheels go on the rear

When I first bought the car back in Oct 06 the car had 110 000kms since then I have possibly done 15-20K kms so my guess the engine is at about 160K kms, anyway when I first got the car the cluster wasn't working

So I used one that Seb had lying around when I first took it to him which at the time I didn't know who he was just heard from a few friends that he was good, it was off his old VR6.

It had 197K when I remember picking it up

Hmm, dont know, I have always liked the blue hoses, but it wont suit your car.
Do they need replacing, I would just leave them the way they are unless they need to be replaced, then go the full kit

I have replaced most of my hoses, and even just having new ones looks clean

[DubSteve]

The old ones look fine I have only had to replace one hose thats it but, red would brake it up, however I think as the car is white and the engine bay is partly black that keeping it black would look decent and hide some of the cables so to speak looking stealth but I am not sure

[Jarred]

you'll be able to piggy back some cables (they're black right) along the black piping, thus cleaning up the engine bay a bit. Go with the black hoses i say, and just pop some red lettering/highlights here and there to break it up a bit.

[DubSteve]

Hmm your right there Jarred, keeping it black may actaully make it look better, stealthier and not seen as much I think.

This is the inspiration I have for the Hose kit its the MJM website for the mk3:
