Metal VR6 Coolant Pipes



Tired of the VR6 plastic "crack pipe" snapping at the oil cooler nipple or leaking at the weak o-ring grooves? Are you chasing coolant leaks that never seem to end? Its time to get serious about the durability of your VR6 engine – by replacing the inferior plastic parts with BULLETPROOF metal versions.

Here is an affordable metal alternative that is custom made in Atlanta, GA by one hell of a machinist (does work for OCC). Comes with aerospace grade o-rings (wont break down) and a chrome plated drain valve. This thing is a show piece – just check out the pics !!











$100 VR6 Metal Crack Pipes!!

Shipping OVERNIGHT ANYWHERE in US $6 on DHL. 2 day international shipping $16 almost ANYWHERE in the world!!

Lots of satisfied customers already, how’s this for feedback :

Vwvortex.com

Oichan: I got excellent pipe! I want thermostat housing

yellowslc - the quality is nothing short of what I demand. I'll be adding my own drain (-an) fitting and plug prior to having it hard anodized.

Gavster - I will be getting an oil cooler myself very soon...my oil temps are always quite high....and that metal crack pipe made by a2t is cherry...i highly recommend it!

simonvr6 : just picked up my pipe from dhl depot YIPPPEEE!!!!! WELL IMPRESSED!OUTSTANDING QUALITY!

Vrmonster : the pipe is great, it is so well made, say thanks to the metalworker. and thank you paul for sorting us out with such a good product. my package was there on the morning of the second day, lol. i was well chuffed. no fees either. your a great guy paul. you should think of some other parts that could do with a revamp.

Bigvw : Got my pipe yesterday, all I can say is WHOWWWW!!! Well worth the money, top quality, and now I know how OCC bikes look that good. I wish I lived nearer you for bits for my Harley. cheers m8

Markgolf : Got mine yesterday! Going to look great on the engine! Suprised Binliner hasn't gone for one! Going to be featured in PVW soon. You can see it, made sure of that! And its better as it wont break and crack like the plastic ones, and upon removin my one today, there's a crack! So worth getting!

Valver : Got mine today and have to say I'm well impressed with the quality - very nice bit of kit, looks almost too good to fit!!! Almost! Cheers Paul, great service too - highly recommended!


Shoot me an email if you have questions or want yours custom tailored for your VR6 set up – these pipes can easily be made without the nipple if you have an aftermarket oil cooler set up. You can easily remove the factory oil/water oil cooler, free up some space behind the starter motor, and get rid of 2 coolant hoses (that tend to break at the worst possible time).

Payments accepted via paypal by sending payment to pi2060@yahoo.com

Group buys are welcome and encouraged.

Re: Metal VR6 Coolant Pipes

This looks to only be the pipe piece that runs along the fron side of the engine. The three pieces that make up the thermostat housing are only available through VW as far as I know. None of them are that expensinve from VW, but this pipe piece can get expensive to install.
