Finally had the time to pull the engine out of the cc on sunday, all went well but project will be at a standstill for a few weeks now until the shed goes up.

Circuit mate, not interested in dragging it.

Im usually someone who likes things looking mint, but this build will be all bout making it work on a reasonable budget so the way it looks will be...

Everything will be getting done properly, although maybe not so pretty ;)

Ive taken a bit of a turn in the planning stage and we've decided we are going to gear towards a track based car that...

Sure did.

Engine out of the CC tomorrow, let the games begin.

SOLD for a bargain price

Some might say the same about putting a 3.6 into a mk3 in the first place ;) All good though I appreciate the financial advice but I'll be OK

Pretty sure Motec M1 can handle direct injection..

Stand alone ECU will be used anticipating future engine mods and tuneability ;)

I have 2 working MK3 VR6' s one is a good car already with lots of good bits the other is a donor car which is my...

So the story goes, my CC 3.6 has been written off by my insurance company due to vandals and I have salvage rights to the car, so Ive found myself in a situation where I have a perfectly good 3.6l...

It has RVC & TPMS, cluster DSG and everything else is going with the car besides the engine BUT none of the electronics inside the car are working properly so I cannot tell you if these parts are...

Hi peeps, been a long time between posts but just throwing it out there. My 09 CC V6 was vandalised just over a week ago and insurance has written it off. The car is a statutory write off and cannot...

Well havent been around here for quite a while but I thought I'd finally post a couple of pics of the headlights installed in the car as there was some interest in another thread.

Please excuse...

Ive been running the Hella Celis for a while now they are a pretty good unit. I have had them completely disassembled to modify mine because I wanted black internals so I can tell you they are well...

Will post plenty of pics shortly, I've done a few things to the car so I'll post them all up.

Update:

New parts arrived from Ground Control this arvo, just sat them into the strut tower and all sweet, fit like a glove so I'll finally get the car back on all fours tonight!

Massive thanks...

Fitted the headlights up last night and installed a HID kit, I'm pretty happy with the end result its the look Im after.
No pics yet though, the car is still on stands and its too dirty to post...

Thanks for the positive comments guys.

Just waiting for the damn glue to dry now so I can install them into the car....

The hardest part of the whole project was removing the cut off shield to...

Update on the issue:

Yes thats the kit I ordered, Im hoping its just a slight variance in tower design or similar, the ground control guys are looking in to it now.

In the mean time I can tell you the build quality is...
