Dope👍. What would a set up like this cost in a mk1 rabbit?
@@samyrnicolas2531 I too wonder
that was pretty funny "it gets a little scary at 140"
My brother has similar, it's called
VW Caddy here in Europe. Its Fastest standing mile top speed is 261km/h, abaut 162 miles per hour, with 367hv 1.9tdi. Latest measured max power is 432hv at the crank.
This guy needs to be on more videos 100%
That sure beats the 1982 Diesel Caddy that I had. I was lucky to do 75 on level grade! Great mod!
You can feel true love and passion for cars from this guy. He reminds me little bit of me, my life is turning around cars only, Ive builds cars since i dont even know. Lot of money put into bad projects, lot of into good projects, no regret at all. I will build cars until I will die. Doesnt care how my car looks to other people, how they like the way it looks, just care about how I see it. It doesnt even matter, which car do u drive, which engine. Its all about passion to these things on 4 wheels :). Sorry for my english. Cars for life
Awesome swap that's for sure! Great job on the conversion!
Man this is awesome! A Vr6 is not the most common swap in Europe where I live (due to the caddy only being available as 4 cylinder versions, there are laws preventing it from being legal which is checked on a yearly basis). So seeing this, I really love it!
You are probably aware of this yourself, but I thought to share a little info anyway. The 1.8 20vt are AMAZING engines with endless possibilities for mods, I have one myself too (not in a caddy).
When you talked about the clearance in the engine bay, when you swap for the 1.8t (which is smaller already I assume) there are different build versions depending on what car it came from.
The intake / outlet setups can differ in placement which could help with placement of cooling and turbo. Of course there are many ways to switch it around, but why not start with everything already close to where it needs to be and save yourself the headache.
Cheers mate!
Ayyy, I know both Marty and Dave in New York! Nice truck, John!
Shout out to turbo Dave. Great work. Sounds amazing
I’ve wanted to do this for twenty years.
Man, ive wanted a vr6 caddy ever since i got in to VWs
Right..... people either get Volkswagens or they don't and for us people that do, these trucks are just too dam cool ya know.
Uncle Kyle I would love to have one of these and make it rwd using an s2000 motor and trans
Hell yes, just barn found a 81 diesel for 50$ cant wait to build it
Holy cow! Just a little scary past 140. I had a '81 caddy once with the stock 1.8
BADASS I love vw’ s I had a mk2 gti vr6 swap know I drive a Vw cc 3.6 4 motion and boy do I miss my mk2
Awesome conversion
A rwd R32 caddy mk1 is probably my dream project. Too bad they don't really make trucks like these anymore. It's the Skoda Felicia pickup and the Dacia logan pickup at least in Sweden.
The closest thing is the ford maverick
In the states i mean
400-500 will be no sweat on a good bottom end with the 1.8t, using the stock AEB head. Boost chugging monsters for sure.
Dream car right there, beautiful little monster
Had a Black/Black 1982 VW Rabbit 🐇 Pickup, always wanted to do a VR6 in it.
John needs to have his own TH-cam channel. I'd subscribe. 👍
Love the truck brother, awd swap it and turbo it 👍
Good looking car with beast engine, I love it!
I like that guys style
Nice and perfect !
Good, super song vr6 👍
Very impressive 👍
Super song, pięknie 👍
Change your rear suspension or roll your fenders so you can have more clearance and less tyre rubbing whilst driving or having a heavy load at the back
i just got vr6 engine for my rabbit vw truck where you get modified wiring? did you sold engine?
Hi John can you tell me if a 05 Touareg work on Mk1?
Great video my friend, but where is you speedometer??!! 😂😂❤️❤️
Should put motor in the rear. Lol. Good job
what transmission did you use?
That thing is nasty but in a good way awesome bro!
How do I get ahold of your friends for the wire harness
How much do you want for this engine? How many miles are on it?
No one was doing it but yeah there was a kit already made for people to do just that interesting…
I like this guy
Is that a GTI front bumper?
Whats up with the engine? Still available?
Vr6 ❤🎉
love it , nice, squeeze bigger motor in smaller vehicle..lol
Rotten banana I love it !
Recently just purchased full swap for my pickup truck curious What suspension you're running in front and rear
the bench seat sick to , what did it come out of
МКПП какая стоит не ссм? 5 или 6 передач и как переваривает 3.6,без поломок?
My man marty fragle ✌
Did you sold it ?
better to turbo the r36 rather than putting the 1.8t in
What is that shifter, it looks badass.
Cae shifter
The car was made by all my buddies
🤔8:45✔ 💲💲OLD STUFF IS CHEAPER😆✌👍👍👍👍❗
Put some nice Paint on that Poor Caddy mate.
Th mis is man vs woman. Made no sense to put that engine in that truck, but it doesn’t matter if it makes sense. It’s freaking awesome.
I vant vone! I vant vone! Lol fr tho. I want it!
U should put dynamat
Want to sell as is?
I’m willing to buy your vr6 engine
Ok please tell me how to find a bench seat for my pickup!!!!! Not joking. PM me or something. He has a bench!!!!! I want one.
Ian Potrament it looks to me to be a back seat of a classic mk1 rabbit car I’ve owned 5 Caddy’s never has one had a bench.
Make her AWD man!
Marty fragael?
Yup! Exactly!
@@johnrollintuff he's pretty well known in the mk4 community for bad costumer service and never getting back to people, sometimes making people wait months for tunes when he says it'll be a 2-3 day turnaround and never helping if you have any issues.
@@johnrollintuff I have his tune on my 1.8t, thankfully I haven't had issues but he did flake on me when I was trying to update my tune when he was local, can't wait to get rid of it when I put my 3071r on.
Only Deutsche bags go 140mph in a pick up! 😅😅😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣. Jst kiddn. I've always wanted to put a Corvair Corsa engine in a 🐞 Beetle.
....Yyyeah. He definitely looks like someone who would do burnouts in a residential.
This actual y weights 1,000 pounds not 2,000 pounds
hahah....no
@@naggersdie well dude if that weights that it can't be that fast mk1s weight 600 stripped normal 900 75-80 81-84 l rabbits weight 1,200 even jettas 83-84 gti 1,500 cause there is no way that weights 2,000 pounds
@@connort3699 Curb weight between 1934 lbs to 2174 lbs depending on year and drive train.
Curious as to where you came up with those weights?
Muffler? 😖
No no you do not take out the VR6 and put in a lawnmover engine
More driving less talking
