The vr6 has finally been dropped into my mk2 golf.
Not driven it much yet but needless to say it's an improvement on the 1.8 8v.
Just a couple of iPhone pics to start - I'll get some better ones tomoz
Still needs a few bits on the body sorting and need a new filter and...
Spotted this today at squires in sherburn near Leeds along with a 106 quick silver.
Both on the parking area at the back and revving the tits off 172, bouncing off the limiter innit!
The bikers looked impressed!
Picked this up today as planning to drop the vr6 in my mk2.
The cars in pretty reasonable Nick but no history. Runs sweet as a nut though!
Here's some iPhone pics - needs a wash but not in this weather!!
Spotted today at about 2is at macdonalds h in wales somewhere (I don't know where).
Had a ktec sticker on rear side window and looked to have a ktec stealth system.
I want to spruce up my golf a little with a bit of paint and a few dents.
Can anyone recommend me one in the Yorkshire area. I've got a few quotes so far but want the job doing right at a reasonable price (if that's possible!).
Got the new coilovers fitted on Friday so here are a few pictures.
Massive improvement on the previous suspension which turned into cheese after 20 years.
Here's the shots, apologies for the quality, the light was pants;
The lack of seats in the pug was proving to be an issue so have replaced it with this;
91 vw golf gti 8v - certainly not the quickest car in the world but a nice cruiser!
Well I fitted the rallye rimmage today and also fitted some original bumper vents to replace the fog lights that were there before. The steels will need a refurb when I change the tyres but will do for the time being.
Also took out the passenger seat and am running gangsta with just the one...
The bonnet on my 106 is going a little pink due to age etc etc.
I was thinking of getting the bonnet and roof wrapped in carbon film but am concerned as its obviously not the 'real deal' (carbon bonnets for S1 are £500 ish) The roof is already black as a non sun roof roof was installed by the...
I thought id put together a little history of my cars (the ones I have got pictures of anyways) as I was super bored today.
My 1st car - a 1977 Mk1 Polo which only had 17000 miles on it when I bought it (my bros gf in it in the pic);
I then went from this to a Nova 1.4 SR, to a Saxo...
Had a drive in the 106 up to the buttertubs today.
My back was destroyed after 40mins with the bucket seat and I was deaf after 15mins but still enjoyed it.
Took a few pics but not loads as there were too many ramblers about.
I noticed that renaultsport are doing the tubs and the date looks like it will be the 16th.

I'm thinking about tagging along as not been up there this year...
Well, it looks like the mrs is expecting our second child so the five door corsa I had before had to go for something a bit bigger.
I decided to go German and went for an audi estate 1.9 tdi sport (130) on a 54 plate.
Really happy with it so far. Car feels tight as a drum despite the age...
How do we feel about getting a list of members that say they will attend meets but never turn up? It's frustrating for reps that take time to organise meets for members to say they are coming and not turn up.
Maybe a name and shame list would help stop this practice?
Just wondering if anyone fancied a run around Sherburn, Cawood etc etc (basically where all the bikers go) on the above mentioned date.
Some really good roads around here as im sure some others members on here can vouch for.
The last run out was pretty good (apart from the one minor...
Since the forum was down I decided to go out and take some pictures of the lean mean chav machine.
I dont know what I did to the pictures but they are large so I apologise.
Here are some pictures;
My mate has recently got his car back from Thorney after it blew up about three months ago.
Its still not 100% sorted but getting there!
Anyways, we went to my usual spot and took a few piccies;
Sorry they are a bit dark.
