RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 21-11-2013
sun's been out for 5 mins today so have offered up the plate and marked the hole for the engine mount nut
droped the plate in and it fitted first time
so i masked up the plate so i could mark the centre point for the mount bolt
i refitted the top mount arm and buffers and pulled the engine central to the mount cup and marked the plate below with a pen through the top bolt hole.
now to drill a clearance hole and weld a captive nut on the lower side of the plate

Hmm I think the saying is "over kill is under rated", great job with the work so far keep it up
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 21-11-2013
nuts fitted!
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 23-11-2013
Repair day today!
removed paint to get a good weld
ive welded this in with an arc stick welder as the original plate was quite thick,
offered up and tacked the plate then reasembled the top mount to make sure it was in the right place.
be warned the rubber mount is quite big so dont weld the plate to far back into the cup or the mount wont screww in properly
cleaned off the paint so i could weld some side filler plates to limit the forwards back movement too
Note the belting protecting the engine from debris entering the Aux/Cam belt
filler plates welded
cleaned up before paint
all masked up
Nice Coat of primer before the topcoat
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 23-11-2013
Finnished painted mount waiting for paint to harden then to reasemble the top mount
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 23-11-2013
paint may still be a little soft but who would know
Thats another job ticked off the list

RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 23-11-2013
but Tom is not doing it its me!
if im not planning on selling the car, i want it to last so some effort has to be put in
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - Dum-Dum - 23-11-2013
How much would I have to pay for you to make me a plate the same and weld it in?

i dont want to be offering this as a service i sell, i dont mind messing up my car but other people get quit pissy if you feck up there car
there is a guy in southampton that offers this service for £120
Davyboy on the GTi6 forum if anyone wants his mobile i can pm it to you for you to contact him
he is the same guy that supplyed my solid rear mount plates
to be honest its a good price i was considering using him for the plates but he only offers a fitting service only and that didnt help me as my car is sornd at the moment

Th effort will pay rewards, even better it's a weekend car so plenty of time to make this a mint 6...mucho jealous of the tools etc, not the Perv
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 24-11-2013

Have you already taken the compressor off Paul?

not yet waiting for a bracket to turn up to drop the PAS pump to the AC pump position. as that looks the easyest way of doing it without going full Rallye set up and those pulleys are expensive
should make for easyer servicing too as i can reach the oil filter too then
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - Dum-Dum - 24-11-2013
You wouldn't believe it but I have a rallye aux set up sitting here if you want to buy. (belt bolts and both pulleys)
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 24-11-2013
thanks for the offer chris but the wallets empty at the moment
the setup im hopefully using will use the std gti6 auto aduster and a 6pk1103 belt
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - lewisdmz - 24-11-2013
Tidy job on the engine mount, I don't think I'll be a real man until I can weld stuff.
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 24-11-2013
this is what im aiming for with the belt route
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 28-11-2013
some of my shinny bits have arrived but the two main bits im waiting for havn't arrived yet
nice new S/hand alloy radiator
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - Dum-Dum - 29-11-2013

wrong forum at the right time
less than 2 month old
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 30-11-2013
been digging and painting the front
well looks like the project has turned a corner as i now need help with some welding before MOT time
the cars been jacked at the wrong point and crushed the side chassis channel and its corroded bad enough to need cutting out and replacing, up side the chassis channel is sound
cleaned back treated rust and undercoated the front crossmember
hope tomorrow to get some white primmer and top coat on there
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - Dum-Dum - 01-12-2013
I really want to do the front of mine like that and get some proper paint on there.
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - Niall - 01-12-2013
Exactly what happened to mine but the rust was a lot worse. Have cleaned all mine up on the gti. Was rusty but only surface rust and have re sealed it. Lovely job!
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 01-12-2013
and then it was white
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 02-12-2013
hmmm might be getting carryed away with this painting thing!
not the usual thing to be hanging off the washing line!
Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - devils_fuel - 02-12-2013
Getting there Paul, as said before this will be very tidy once done
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - Jonny81191 - 02-12-2013
This is going to be EPIC!!!
