    I would like a model 12v VR6 from the MK4, I love how those intakes look compared to the others (except for the R32)

    vr6 is 3.99 euros there , he also has r32 sets and some other bits

    shipping seems expensive , maybe its less for such a small item or someone nearer could ship them out?

    Judging by the item description though, seems like this is the engine only and no paint...

    Guys, today in the mail I just got the VR6 parts like the one shown by gtidude2000 to make a fresh mold. Dave (Maximus Manx) provided the parts needed, so I will be working on this project next. Updates coming.

    If I remember correctly, Noro Tuning is all 1/18 scale.

    Guys, good news (and sorry its taking so long). I was able to make a high quality mold of the Fujimi insert. Here are the first 2 pulls fresh from the mold. My plan is to remove the engine from the "insert" and scratch build the mid section/bottom half to create a stand alone VR6. I will then put the engine in rubber and resin cast those. Progress is being made, although slowly. More updates to come ...

    Hi all. Sorry been so busy with other projects. I'm not really selling these yet. I plan to pour a bunch more then I'll post an update. Guys who want just the engine and not he entire insert (like pictured) I'm hoping to build up the bottom half soon and make a mold of the engine itself. Again, sorry for the slow progress just have lots of projects on the bench and a bunch of new molds to make.

    Hi Shucky. Just watched your high quality molds. They are just amazing. I myself am amazed just looking to them and its not at all a problem for any of us if you are busy with your work because we also want to enjoy the good outputs and whenever you get time just keep updating this thread.
