You'll be real pleased with the results man :) Use Liqui-moly for engine stuff if you can, i used it on mine and i've only seen good differences despite what some have warned about flushes.

i have all wurth stuff...but only because i got it cheap through my old work :)

doing plugs and fuel system cleaner too :) should run quite well not that it doesn't now!

i will prob do the g-box while i have it on the hoist! :D

Yay! Good to hear mate. I'm still keen to do my plugs at some point and a trans fluid drop.

Sounds good Stu. So all the electrics are sorted...

yep all electrics are fine :D

so i got a sweet vr with a bung alternator... CHEAP!!!

$540 fix but it sure is better than spending $7k on a vr6 :D

so i changed the oil, plugs, gear-box mount, oil filter dash globes, new badgeless grill came so i put that in... (looks mad! :D) and wired the head unit.

:D

then tonight coming home from work i ran out of fuel :duh: jarred and josh saved me :D

then when i got to eve (night club) i notice my winscreen was fogging and stem was coming out of the bonnet:duh:

the crack pipe...has cracked! so a tow truck home...again! :( lol

i have no luck with cars.

oh well time for a billet one!

that cracked pipe happened to me in my mums VR, silly design where they put a rubber pipe right ontop of the exhaut manifold!!!

keep up thhe good work mate

dom

sounds like its gonna be a really nice vr6 after you finish with it, it'll be a shame to sell it
