Mate did you get the headunit brand new ? If so do you mind telling me how much and from where !
How do you find it ?
Did you get the nav set up to go with it ?

Ahhhh always liked the Bora
When did VW drop the "R" from VR6?
And is that the 12 valve of 24 valve head?
A very nice car, that would be far more comfortable compared to its older sibling (my MK2)

Sorry guys only just noticed the comments on here.
Matt: Got the headunit brand new from JB Hi Fi. They had a 30% off sale on incar entertainment. Think I payed around $1250 for it, reduced from
$1817.
Didn't get the Sat Nav Module with it, but I plan to install it later on. Think its about $400 for that.
Ryan: The MkIII was the only one called the "VR6" I think. The Bora and the R32 Golf still use the same engine except that they both have the 24v
Head. (R32 has 400cc more capacity as well)
MkIV "VR6s" Also picked up a variable valve timing and other little goodies.

Recieved my Performance Haldex controller today. The Haldex is the computer which controls the AWD system. Upgrading the computer is one of the best
upgrades that can be made (apparently.)
Here is some info for anyone that is interested:
"The sophisticated Haldex based all wheel drive system used in the VW R32 and Audi TT Quattro monitors throttle input, ABS wheel speed sensors,
steering angle, etc to anticipate and distribute torque transfer from the engine to the driveline.
Specially prepared Haldex control units are able to alter the time in which the system reacts to these dynamic changes and and how it reacts to them;
creating more favourable or aggressive handling characteristics.
This upgrade increases torque transmission at acceleration providing consistent performance with increased over-steer. The torque-transmission is
influenced by how fast you press the accelerator down. The Haldex system can transmit torque before the engine delivers torque. At greater speeds the
torque will decrease enabling less over-steer and safer driving properties.
The advantages of this HPP upgrade are it’s ability to predict the onset of torque. This upgrade takes into account the TPS signal more so than the
OEM software and therefore can proactively begin applying power to the RWD clutch packs before wheel spin begins. As power is increased, more power
lock occurs in the RWD unit until full lock is achieved. To summarize, the new HPP is more aggressive with how it transfers power and does so much
more proactively than the OEM system. This is ideal for autocross, road racing, and street driving as well as enhancements to poor weather
driving."

Yeh thats standard. Getting the rear section (inlcluding the resonator and rear muffler) replaced in stainless. Mates rates, all tig welded
Will lose a bit of ground clearance but should flow alot better and sound awesome!
I was amazed that the exhaust is stainless from the factory
