Hi Shinya, Did you realize you are officially member nr 1?
You joined on 15/04/2003 – the site had been on line for less than 24 hours when you found us!
the only two registrations before yours were LD50 (whose idea the site was) & myself.That is 15 years ago next month, where has the time gone?
I know I have retired & am now a Pensionado
I am 67 this year I am looking forward to growing old disgracefully!
I notice that the site has become a lot quieter from its heyday 5 to 10 years back, but that must be in part due to the worldwide diminishing number of syncro models left on the road.I for one am still waiting to hear from dazfxvw if his solution sorted the problem out? it would be nice if it did.then we could all know how to do it
While he Darren (dazfxvw ) has been a member on here since 09/01/2008 he has not posted since 17/05/2016 & also has not been logged in on site since 30/01/2017, that is not to say that he hasn’t looked in without logging in,
Which is also something I do from time to time since I retired,
I no longer drive a car as to due to my health issues (my license has been revoked)
I was 66 years old last week & obviously I am not in the best of health, some of the early members will recall my previous operations etc,
I try to look in here about once a week or so, but I cannot be as involved as much as I used to be, sorry but thats what happens when you get older!Its not the power that kills the drive train but the torque, with a VR6 (lots of torque) I would suggest a maximum of 250/275 bhp
While a lot will depend on you driving style, the more power you have the more likely & more often you will break things, but it should run at 250/275 bhp without breaking to many things to often.
Don’t forget that any & every part of a VR6 drive train is now going to be between 20 & 25 years old, with lots of kilometers clocked up, have you thought about Haldex?
