[ericvw760]

[RobgersHabit]

[Thinker669]

Cool, a VR6 on a Volkswagen Rabbit.

[BigL513]

dont sleep

[VolkswagOwned]

ULTIMATE SLEEPER!!

[TGives]

I'm picking my 84 Bunny tomorrow! It has a 16v swapped in it now but I'm looking VR6. Please provide all the details on your swap, or better yet just sell it to me!

[jakeob09]

hey guys i am looking in buying an older rabbit and im thinking of an 81,84 bunny can someone help me with the choice i like both of the looks of them but can anyone tell me the pros and cons of both or just help in anyway possible?

[2000VR]

Beastly Rabbit

[BassnForGod]

So has he flipped it yet?

[iluvmyveedub]

Mine only has a 16v ABA, and this one sounds WAY more pissed off than mine.

[accountname098]

yeaaaaa GLX wheels ;o

[joepacouparouno1]

True OEM+ such a sick swap

[TOTALimmunity]

is this the rabbit that was on the realigh/chapel hill craigslist? its sick

[rhoads89]

@GOLFISTDE :

You my friend don't know shit about vw,there are 12v,24 and 32 valve 6 cylinder engines...go read a book then come and comment.

[TheLowdub]

@rhoads89 There is no 32 valve vr6,  How do you get 32 valves in a 6 cyl engine? The math does not add up

There are the following

2.8 12v

2.9 12v (Europe)

2.8 24v

3.2 24v

3.6 24v

[cuetipse]

@rhoads89 what a moron, how do you devide 32 by 6? the most valve that was ever putted in a 6 cyl. was the 2.8 and 3.0 from audi, 30 valves

[brokengun]

That's sweet man. Very cool conversion.

[lowdowncustomz1]

Thats not turbo'd

[smugbasterd]

Putting together the components for my engine swap. '83 VeeDub cabrio, soon to have a VR6, likely with a Garret turbo setup. Hoping for over 375hp, depends on my budget. Now THAT'S Fahrvergnügen.

[espaguetyboi]

mad turbo lag man..

[DylanSparks92]

there's no turbo setup on this car.

[GOLFISTDE]

you guys are idiot, you talking about VW and you dont know nothing... VR6 12v??? IDIOT!!! every VR6 have 24v... and Vr6 is a great engine... sorry for bad english..

[rabidfishes]

@GOLFISTDE R-U retarded? I own a 12v vr6, 92' corrado slc with the o.b.d numero uno twelve valve vr6 motor. Mabye you should light your face on fire...ASS! At least know what you are talking about before you spout off like you've actually ever been out of your mom's basement.

[lowdowncustomz1]

@GOLFISTDE Your the fucking idiot, there are 2 types of vr engine ones 12v and the newer ones 24v, get it right before you start running your mouth

[vWBIRDWv]

thats what im currently working on

[pay0the0man]

There's no turbo on this car.

[shakespir23]

Fat faggot queer in the video

[TheSaltySea]

He has already accomplished much more in his life than you ever will.

[pimpedvw]

Where did that come from?

[TheDg2294]

I don't know much about rabbits (the car) but a want one that is an 80's make. But I cant get one if its a clutch. could you tell me if it is ahich rabbit cars arent clutches?

[sonyxploder]

You're talking about a stick shift right? Those are called manual or standards. They have shifters that can be moved left right up and down.

[cabeg10]

that my jam!!!

[evanjhartley]

Yea, there's no way that's a VRT...jsut a VR6. Things nasty though.

[hondahp18]

makes the car too front heavy tho

[arrepuess]

@hondahp18 Better traction..it is Front Wheel Drive & the engine will pull its own weight.

[akasketch88]

i have a 84 mk1 rabbit.... and a vr6 corrado... i want to throw the vr6 in the rabbit but just dont know how had is the swap is..... any tips?

[ovazquezj]

in spanish: "esta chingon!!!!"

[wed3k]

badass indeed.

[merrymonkey]

nice man

[fat420cracker]

Theres no turbo. Its just a VR6 swap in a MKI.

[neweggrocks]

no way that car was turbo'd. there was no turbo under the hood and he would spin effortlessly through 4th gear with a turbo'd rabbit. i spin through third in my 98 gti vrt

[bobyy001]

buenos fierros, felicidades !!!

[kodiak410a]

Hey guy, sweet setup. Can I ask a question totally irrelavent to your car but I assume you are a true VW Fan. I do not believe the 83 VW rabbit had a turbo diesel engine option available, just a regular diesel. Am I correct or was there and TD option? Thanks AJ

[fooooord3]

my 84  is a td but im not sure for a 83

[isolationeitheror]

i want it

[jocky102]

i fail to see where the turbo was or is.

[fooooord3]

same here there was no sound of it ither

[AltonHorton]

nice euro style the back lights are tight too. i wish it had coil overs it would be tight lower.

[Silverbulletzx3]

They can fit a 350 in a miata.  I bet you can do it with a rabbit just as well. Just requires alot of fabrication.

[mozcar78]

nice.....abs still active? LOLLLLLLZ

[lama101]

id love a vee dub with a vr6 or golf 5 r32 engine. i got a lupo 1.0 :D gona slam it in a couple of months n get some fresh oldskool BBS rims

[VW2LJetta02]

NOT a vr6 turbo. That's a stock vr6. Still cool as hell, but don't lie about your vid titles.

[RawbIsFtw]

how hard would it be to fit a 350 in one of those?

[kadooment95]

Very. A VR6 bearly fits in...

[DJTEVAdotCOM]

nice color...go rabbit!!!

[muki1016]

turbo?

[lsvtecbiatch]

the name of this song please?

[chi773guy]

The song is by an 80's--90's band name Cutting Crew. The title of the song is "I Just Die In Your Arms."

The group had a lesser known hit called "Been In Love Before" which I recommend you check out as well.

[BarryMcCockiner420]

man i bet you have no traction, my buddy had a mk2 golf vr6, and it was amazing it would burn tires in like 4th gear, i bet this is a fucking blast

[nathanorskyler]

so does a vr6 fit with everything in perfectly or did you have to do some custom work

[draggonhedd]

way more work than you think.

to the OP, whose car is this?

[rainsf0rd]

@nathanorskyler

A lot of fabrication. You'd need: custom motor mounts, different rad/ fans, mk2 manual rack, machined strut mount tab, Vr6 knuckles, shortened driver's axle (for 5-lug), ECU and complete electrical harness, clutch master, brake booster, vr6 motor, O2A trans, shifter linkage + shifter, pedal cluster, high spring rate suspension, and then reinforcing the frame to handle that much torque

;)

[EurOssatt]

really no waiii i wonderz whyz?

[scotterinsam]

sound just like my gti vr6

[superserialexcelsior]

and no, the shot of that engine bay does not have a turbo in it, he added it soon after shooting this. He had to cut up the front of the car to accommodate the enormous FMIC

[superserialexcelsior]

carazo...the vr6 12v? a six valve twelve valve? Your're an idiot.

I used to know this guy through work, this car is amazing. corrado dash, all wheel drive, ABS....amazing.

Seattle does dubs best...in more ways than one.

[txtmsgromance]

...vr6's came in 12 and 24 valve setups..i think 2002 was 24v switch if im not mistaken.

[superserialexcelsior]

your right...I was stoned and mis read his words.

[txtmsgromance]

no problem :)

[sean93101]

cool

[adaptorman]

hiya can u tell me ,who u fitted the vr6 in a mk1 ,e.g what engine cradle ,mounts etc , as ive got a vr6 turbo sat here ,and think it may go ok in a mk1 golf ,top motor all the best

[SARAYEV0]

VR6 turbo??????

[O16581724525]

Yeah, no turbo there.

[joeylawrencehaircut]

I follow my hands to my head and shut this fucking crap song off. Crikey mate, why not just have the sound of the engine?

[mikedundee1979]

nice car bru.

[rabidzebu32]

that engine looks so out of place

[rabidzebu32]

that engine looks so out of place

[DanielH3342]

cool idea with the engine swap. could have picked a better song!

[Rabbid0281]

Dude thats pimp, i love the sound of a VR6. You should get some stickier tires on those Passat rims. Nice ABS add. is it the 2.6??

[carazo321]

the vr6 12v is eather 2.8 or 2.9 on the storm

and that sound like a 2.8 !!!

[gojobadody]

i think you have some more work to do on it. a VR should push more then that, but grats on the swap.

[c64life]

Nice! i owned one of these nice they were crazy fun!

[papibenito]

hey very well done n nice car! that thing must b alightweight monster!

[golfvr6charged]

Wheres the turbo ??

[HeeVindinho]

OMG!! lol old school car with an old school song! hehe I miss my brother's Vr6..

[laina423]

I dont hear any turbo???????????

[tpvalley]

I didn't see one either!!

[viktord1]

rabbitron aka MEGAsleeper

[vtecsux69]

Sick Car

[bassjunkey1]

Very good, Sounds mint, altho I wouldn't have put the ABS in, Im taking it out of my VR, Gets me in more troble that helping, Long braking distance, Get a rotrex in there

[theinternetispunks]

Thats this sickest thing Ive seen as far as Vr6 conversions! I would be scared shitless to take a turn in that thing while mobbing tho, better suited as a drag car.

[silver549]

Wow! Abs on a rabbit... what's the 0-60 ? 1/4 ?

[Crazyspyro]

Rabbit (Golf) ist for the life - everytime

[norbigumi]

SUPER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mxmang]

crookedtron?  sorry to hear about your troubles dude

[pats16vgti]

same the guy who built it is a crook

[1antoniop]

insane dude!

VW 100%

[davidGTI]

i love the vr6 sound

[emojosh519]

i have a 1984 rabbit. its in pretty mint shape. 100% orig. i'm actually looking at doing a full VR6 swap. do you need to swap in a computer aswell? is it alot of work to do the swap?

[baboon69pashley]

Nah its really easy, take 6 or 7 minutes probably. Just make sure you put in a computer, I have an old PC if u wanna buy it, pentium 2.

[djcocum]

Sounds pretty cool!!

[harrychronikjr]

crappy music in all your vids!!!!

[beyer88]

its a 2.8 vr6 24v..!

[iwantone2]

12v

[DemoFly]

Valve...not volt.

[nicknagurka]

24v was a 3.2.....yeah

[polskadam]

counting crows hahahaa wtf? were you born an idiot?

[TSPlove]

how can you drive that, i always thought a vr was a little to heavy for any mk I, but if not and everything is fine bump it up to a 2.8l or 3.2l 24v vr6 haha

[vv0mp]

The song is not by the Counting Crows, you douchebag.

It's by Cutting Crew. PHAIL!

[verplancken01]

the rabbits are great, i have one 82 diesel ,i spend $25 dls per month, i live in mexico and diesel is sheaper but it still been very good performance.

[safestud]

I also had a powder blue 1980 and an 86 black cabriolet. I drove that car for 2 years with a bad head gasket, becuase thats how I purchased it and it still commuted 80 miles a day with only a slight overheat.

[safestud]

I had many rabbits. My fave was the 83 silver GTI. I never got tired of that car and it never got tired of me. I also had an orange 1975 which was first year on the market. I seen a 2 door one not long ago. That year is perfect to strip down and redo if you find one that is on its last legs.

[MlLKMAN]

I've seen that car in person, sweet ride. VR6 turbo

[davidGTI]

is a nice son: i just died in your arms tonight, counting crows

[ebaggio]

wanna ask about the song played in this video ???

important plz ..

[renobaron]

its a VR6 12V I think

[verplancken01]

what motor did you put in that rabbit?

[corrupt200]

I knew two people who owned VW Rabbits when I was a little kid in Albany, NY during the 1980s

[clusey]

Great cars those Rabbits. Reminds me of the time in a diesel Rabbit when we chased a GTI hauling ass on the 10 freeway in El Monte. Kept him in sight until GTI exited in West L.A. . WOW what a day that was!!!!!!!

[wiillywonkaa]

thats pretty mean im planning on doing the same thing but with a mk2 golf nice work

[PierceMedia]

very cool.

post more videos of thew VR Rabbit!

[bugzrrad]

That car sucks my ass; whomever built it is a retard

[projektmk1vr6]

I'm building a vr6 rabbit right now, you're a retard, you would'nt have the skill to do a swap of that magnitude, I doubt you could even wipe your own ass you fucking idiot!

[roundeye]

nice, i remember the vr rabbit that RPI built alittle over a decade ago. i like this better cause its a sleeper and you definately put some work into it with ABS and five bolt, very cool

[roundeye]
