Yea, having the wind knocked outta your sails always sucks. So much of the rocco build went so smooth and now I'm running into these small issues that just eat up so much time. However, I just keep thinking how it will be when I'm back behind the wheel and the car is moving under it's own power again.

yeah for real....its looking like im not gonna get it on the road as soon as i thought, unles i can find a MkIII in the junkyard with a full serp belt setup and just piece my own together, they want 600 for the complete kit for that one on the vortex

SoCal, I have parted out three of them in the last year, what do you need? I may have it sitting in my basement or on another parts car. I know I have brackets with tensioners, alternators and probably pulleys as well. I'm out of P/S pumps but I have adapted earlier ones to work. A/C compressors are laying around but I can't tell you that they work.

the bracket, pulleys and tensioner, im not running power steering or A/C so all i need to run is the alt and waterpump

[sixsracing]

I should have no problem supplying that. Which pulleys? Alternator is grooved and runs with the a/c. Water pump is a V and runs with the P/S. I have an alternator pulley and the tensioner pulley (flat). I'm thinking more like $50.00 plus shipping. Let me know.

i need the crank pulley, the whole alternator (and possible the plugs for the alternator cause i dont know if my stock wiring is plug and play for it), the alternator bracket (im picturing the one with the tensioner built into the bracket) and i need the idler style pulley for the water pump (i have no idea what its from, but if it boils down to it i will order one from that company on the vortex)
i just checked ETKA and it looks like i need the VR6 water pump pulley
here is the part number:
021 121 031 A - VR6 water pump pulley

[SoCal_Cabby]

this is the exact pulley setup i have been thinking of...but cant seem to find the rest of the part numbers

[sixsracing]

I have the bracket with the tensioner.
I have an alternator and I can cut the plugs out of a parts car.
I have a crank pulley.
I will check pulleys and see if I have that number but if it's V6 only then I'm sure I don't.

I'll put them in a box to the side and wait to hear from you. Didn't know you needed the alternator too.
I'll check my stock and see if I can still cut that price. Up here in cold country I use them quite a bit.

[SoCal_Cabby]

i never even noticed a price till just now...so whatever is clever
if you could send all the bolts and stuff too, i'd greatly appreciate it

[sixsracing]

Bolts might be a little tough. Most everything has been disassembled and is in the basement
but I will see what I can do.

im pretty sure i can use the bolts from my bracket to the block, but i dont even have the bolts for my alternator...no biggie i can get what i need from the JY after i get the parts from you

[sixsracing]

Ok, got most of it together this morning. Bolts for the alternator, compressor and mounting studs
for bracket to block. Both the alt. and the compressor equipped with electrical connectors and
pigtails. I am concerned about the p/s bracket and cradle. The bracket is here but I have no
cradle or p/s pump. Different pumps take different cradles and I'm out of stock. Here are some
pics, let me know if you see something missing that you need and I'll get them UPS'd.

i dont need the a/c pump or the power steering pump, i deleted them from my car to clean up the engine bay, besides my manual steering rack has no where to put the fluid from the pump

[sixsracing]

Well that will reduce the shipping costs.

So, forget the A/C compressor and the bracket for the P/S.

Is there anything else you might need from me to make life easier. Have you found an ECU?

i have an ecu, just still not sure if it's the right one...

also i found out which crank pulley it is i need...its the crank pulley from a 1.8t

so 1.8t crank pulley, VR6 waterpump pulley, aba alternator and bracket....
