12v or 24v? Either way, they are a bitch.

[e30austin]

Fuck a FWD car.

[bmwm42]

24v

[cramer]

It's not very fun. Pull trans and intake,valve cover, timing covers etc. plan on a full day. Good time to upgrade the cooling parts too.

Fuck a FWD car.

[e30austin]

Lol. FWIW, I rather like Corrados and Mk3 VR6 GTI's.

[bmwm42]

ughhh i dreaded pulling the trans slap me if im retarded but i read somewhere that you can drill out the rivets for the lower guides and use 5mm allen heads and lock nuts???????

VR6, best exhaust note of any car that isn't an exotic.

This. I always drool at the nice ones

[PNWDan]

Complete pain. For those things I have a buddy that's a vw tech. Cheaper than the dealer and better than wanting to kill yourself over it.

I miss my VWs except that part.

*shudder*

May the gods of V.A.G be with you, it's not a task to be taken lightly.

Also I agree on the VR6, my mom has a MkV R32 and even with the stock exhaust it sounds great. She just took delivery of a new Golf R and while a very nice car it's missing that GRRRRR factor the R32 has.

[bmwm42]

Yea I'm stressing just thinking about it ive replaced many timing chains and guides ok bmws etc dual chains though fuck

Why is the famed e30 parts vulture doing work on a VW?
