VW Mk1 Golf Supercharged VR6 Swap (Ep.7) / ITS BACK!! / Volkswagen Build Rabbit Caddy Citi Cabrio

[@mk1rabbithole]

the amount of hate i have for vr’s is equally and oppositely balanced by my love for boosted vr’s. what a badass little car that is, pumped to see more of it.

[@MysteryGarage]

Hahaha man 2 mins behind the wheel would solidify your love I promise you! Well atleast the charger has you partially won over... thanks for the support as always, really appreciate it!!

[@SolveFixBuild]

I’ve had 4 VWs including a 86 GTI and a 98 VR6 and I miss them both. Your vid inspires me to relive my past a pick up a Mk2 with a VR in it.

[@ThePopcyclePete]

'"My face is kinda hurtin cause I'm smilin soo much"...that's what driving these older dubs is all about. Love it. See you at the cruise R!

[@MysteryGarage]

Lots of face hurting this weekend I’m sure!! Looking forward to it!! Cheers

[@kusbert]

Just randomly found this channel. But maan, ur quality of work is phenomenal. As well as the fact that your are projects looking very interesting :) You definitely have yourself a new subscriber!

[@MysteryGarage]

Thank you very much! I really really appreciate that! Welcome to the channel and thanks so much for watching!! Cheers

[@ghosttheoremproductions5469]

This makes me wish you had my Fox. I don't know when I'll have the time to give that thing the love it deserves. Mind you, I can't even decide on a drivetrain, haha.

[@MysteryGarage]

Ohhh a fox, I’d love to add a fox to the collection!! Thanks so much for watching, get out there and build that car!!

[@ghosttheoremproductions5469]

@@MysteryGarage - Yeah. Hard to find them in the states. Especially a GL Wagon like mine which got the only options available (AC and a 5speed instead of a 4speed). Arizona car too so surface rust from where the paint got baked but no real body or chassis rust. It's just low on the priority list so it has been sitting :-/ Building a house here soon and just don't know when I'll have the time. It popped up for sale a while back and I couldn't say no even though I knew I didn't have the time, haha

[@davidbeeby5859]

Awesome content Ry! Stoked to learn more about this car and the upgrades to make it a street monster....gotta send me the link to the steel toe version of those clogs, see you Friday night

[@MysteryGarage]

Hahaha thanks man!!! Lots on the go on this channel I promise!! Thank you for the continued support!! Cheers!!

[@r8mysetup]

Loving the content super informational. I recently snagged an mk1 caddy and watching these videos really gets me in the mood to get working on it

[@MysteryGarage]

That’s awesome!! One of the biggest reason I do all this, to motivate other to get out in your own garages or driveways and get to work!! Thanks so much for watching appreciate all the positive comments, thank you!!

[@juanbadbreedracinggarcia6608]

[@dinokadribasic9192]

I wanna see you do a 4motion mk1 build one day.

[@MysteryGarage]

Yes! That makes 2 of us lol! One of these days it like to do a Mk1 rallye golf tribute, I think that would be pretty cool

[@Vatitoz]

@@MysteryGarage man I have 85 cabrio shell that I want to build for the most fun what would you recommend? The ralleye golf sounds interesting how would you do it? Do you have any write ups of your builds?

[@stevebryant5299]

[@MysteryGarage]

YEEESSS!!! Love these clogs, need to pick up a couple more sets hahaha. Thanks for the support, I appreciate it! Cheers!

[@dubCanuck1]

Booster looks more like a B3/B4 setup. Mk3 would have the ball-end pedal shaft on it on the inside; requiring the MK3 brake pedal.

[@davewhite724]

Bottle is mk3...B3 had the mk2 style

[@MysteryGarage]

Ya I swapped the ball style over to the early style rod. It is a mk3 👌 adapted. I remember now lol! There’s pics of that work on my Instagram waaaay back lol. Cheers!!

[@dubCanuck1]

@@MysteryGarage Well now I know. And knowing (as they say) is half the battle.

@@dubCanuck1 hahaha it’s my car and I hand built it and I can’t even remember!

[@Vw1.8T20v]

Wish you could have some of our mk1 golfs we have nice fronts and also interior and different dash boards ive owned over 10 mk1 golfs and cant stop doing them as projects my next build would be 3.2 audi engine with supercharger but its so expensive in South Africa.

[@MysteryGarage]

That's awesome!! Yes id love to get my hands on a newer Citi Mk1, that would be pretty cool!! Good luck on the next build and thanks for watching!! Cheers!!

[@jabuvduvatel]

I want to have same disk brakes around on my 88 Cabriolet! Can you give parts list for front and rear brakes? Thanks!

[@MysteryGarage]

I will be in a coming episode when I swap the brakes over to project step child, I’ll break it all down! So stay tuned for that!! Thanks so much for watching!! Appreciate the support!!

[@jabuvduvatel]

@@MysteryGarage Thank you. Can't wait for it :P

Hello✌ which petrol hoses did you use? Greetings from Germany

Hey Germany!! Cheers!! I used standard VR6 stuff, well aftermarket version hoses but same same... hope that helps!! Thanks for watching, appreciate the support.

[@aldousesperanza]

Do a trackday in mission next year!

[@MysteryGarage]

There’s been a little discussion about that, have to see where it goes! Thanks for watching!! Appreciate the support! Cheers

[@marlonchin1214]

Can run an ac system with the vr6 in the mk1?

[@MysteryGarage]

Ooooo yes I’m sure you can but it would be extremely tight, like very very tight!! Would have to rethink your rad setup, and have to use a mk3 compressor, those massive Mk1 compressors would never work. Thanks for watching, appreciate the comments, cheers!!

[@juanrocha6548]

What set up is it on the 5 lug version??

[@MysteryGarage]

What is the brake setup? I’ll be breaking it all down soon in a coming episode when I swap brakes over to project step child, and build new ones for white rabbit, so stay tuned for that! Thanks so much for watch, really appreciate it!! Cheers

[@juanrocha6548]

Thanks for the reply will definitely stay tuned, thanks for all your knowledge

[@jesusmezquita]

How dont you Block the rear disc brakes while heavy braking, i had to go back to the drum system

[@MysteryGarage]

Lock the rear brakes? I never have yet, even under heavy braking, but maybe that’s just my setup. If it happens I’ll work through it with a bias valve I’m sure. Thanks for the comments, much appreciated!! Thanks for the support!!

[@dbi1036]

Brother I just found your channel and it’s great thank u, it I may ask what type of transmission are you using and what would be the best to use

[@MysteryGarage]

I’m running an O2A trans with an O2J tower swap. Nothing internally changed… yet

[@ervinhernandez3137]

What engine are you going to swap in the mk2?

[@MysteryGarage]

The mk2 has a 2.0 Aba/1.8l big valve head! Big cam, long tube header, etc... cool little build. You look back a couple videos and see the whole build. Thanks for the comments and appreciate the watch cheers!!

[@Anthonyhancock71]

Where and when is the cruise ?

Hey I'm from South Africa , you should import VR6 Rims from south africa for the MK1 , or you can import a Volkswagen CitiRox 1.6i that would be cool seeing our most favourite car in south africa in another country

[@MysteryGarage]

Awww Man i would love to but i could only imagine the shipping costs associated with that. Car would also need to be 15yrs old for me to be able to import it without challenge. Appreciate all the support thank you! Hello South Africa!! Cheers!!

[@KingChadKennedy]

@@MysteryGarage or can you import VeloCiti rims

[@72defender]

Thank you KZbin algorithm. I have a B8.5 A4 6MT Quattro and just bought APR’s K04 kit that comes with Stage 3 ECU tune but haven’t installed it yet. Reason being is I’ve just heard of Loba K04 and wondering if you know anyone who’s installed it and their feedback? Your thoughts on it? Also, would Loba K04 require a custom tune? Thanks in advance for your response!

[@MysteryGarage]

Aw man, sounds awesome! Have to admit personally i haven't spent much time with audi's our the 1.8T aftermarket but hope to in the future, have a build on the back burner. Maybe someone else can chime in on this one...

Its an awesome little car!! I love it!! Thanks for watching!!

[@BioSurge]

I have to ask, because I'm confused. Where does the cabrio come in? it's not a cabriolet, right? And the Caddie? It's not a caddie, right? PLEASE put a boosted VR6 in a Mk1 Caddie cabriolet
