In fact, the ideas behind most of what we currently sell comes from the great people on the forums like you! If you would like us to design a custom part for your vehicle, please feel free to get in touch with us. If you lead us to another part, you will be given free or deeply discounted parts for evaluating prototypes. Just email or call – it's, that’s simple.

Billet VR6 Crack Pipes for ALL VR6 Engines – Corrado thru R32!
We were the 1st to build this part and its what started us off! If you have a billet crack pipe in your VR6, chances are it was made by http://www.GruvenParts.com. Hand crafted in our Aerospace shop using O-rings from the Boeing 777, proven by many hours of track time, it’s the highest quality crack pipe you can buy. It’s on all of our track cars and has withstood countless hours of track abuse!
MKIV VR6 Intake Manifold Bushings - AFP and BDF VR6
Another Vortex 1st - You guys told us about the chronic rattles common to the intake manifold of the AFP and BDF VR6's and we listened. These bushings provide the fit VW should have used to prevent intake manifold wear. (The R32 intake bushings are coming soon!)
Billet Stainless Steel Short Shifter Bracket
Replace the weak plastic link in your cable shift mechanism with this one made from Aerospace grade, hardened stainless steel. Reduces side/side shift throw by 35%! This part replaces OEM P/N 1J0-711-256 (common to most cable shift MK3, MK4 Jettas, Golfs, TDI’s, Beetles, Passats, and Corrado VR6)
Billet 12V VR6 Drive Belt Pulleys - All 12V VR6
GruvenParts.com offers ultra sleek lightweight 12V VR6 crank, power steering, water pump, and tensioner pulleys for your 12V VR6 engine. These pulleys are precision CNC'd from aircraft grade billet aluminum. Regular and under drive available. Buy them as a set and save!
24V Billet VR6 Drive Belt Pulleys - All 24V VR6
We also offer lightweight 24V VR6 crank, water pump, and tensioner pulleys for your 24V VR6 engine. Same great quality as the 12V pulleys, but tailored for your 24V VR6 engine !
Lightweight MK4 1.8T / 2.0 Billet Drive Belt Pulleys
Check out our ultra light pulley sets for your 1.8T/2.0 VW and Audi. Reduced rotational mass, underdrive, and precision CNC’d from billet aluminum. Buy as a set and save!
VR6 Billet Aux Water Pump Bracket – All VR6
This part replaces the useless rubber donut (OEM P/N 035-959-209E) that does a poor job supporting your PRICEY auxiliary water pump, and related PRICEY hoses. The OEM rubber donut allows the weight of the pump and hoses to sag, causing stress which can lead to pump and hose failure. This ones holds the pump and hoses tight!
Billet / Carbon Fiber / Chrome "VeeChain"
Pay homage to the unique VR6 engine with this keychain. An instant conversation starter with girls at the parties who are constantly wondering about your 15 degree cylinder offset. An Oichan original design (http://www.oichan.org) sold under his permission.
5 Axis CNC’d Billet Hood Pull – All MKIV Golf/Jetta Wagon
Murphy is a mother…Ours is crafted from a solid block of aerospace grade aluminum on 1 of our 5 axis CNC's for a perfect fit. Forget about the “Pray and Pull” theory, you're not breaking this one! Includes nut/bolt to install. (MKIV Jetta Version coming soon)
CNC Pressed MSD Coil Pack Brackets MK3 and MK4 VR6
Use this CNC formed, powder coated Aerospace grade aluminum bracket to mount your new MSD coils on MK3 or MK4 VR6 engines. We all know how poorly the OEM Beru units hold up - so get serious about your VR6 ignition and step up to MSD! Leave the cheaply made, overpriced Beru coils for the competition!
New Beetle RSI Grab Handles
A must for any New Beetle owner seeking that truley custom interior. It's made from a slab of aerospace grade 6061-T651 aluminum on one of our 5 axis CNC's, then hand polished to perfection.
Billet Upper "Rad Neck" - all Corrado
This part is designed to replace the weak plastic factory radiator neck (prone to cracking and dropping chunks in your radiator over time). We closed the book on this part, and it will never need to be replaced again. "Wife-beater" t-shirt not included.
Billet Upper Radiator Hose Y Junction - MK3 VR6 5sp
An absolute MUST HAVE for all MK3 VR6 owners with 5sp trans. The most documented cause of replacement on this hose is due to the plastic Y adapter fitting which connects the 3 short hose pieces. The plastic VW Y pipe cannot be bought separately, and is not suited for the high temperatures under the hood. Hell, its plastic – what did you expect?! Dont buy the OEM plastic part or more expensive alternatives when you can buy this BILLET ALUMINUM TIG welded replacement part for half the price!

What's In Development?
We always have new projects in development at http://www.GruvenParts.com. The VR6 thermostat housing could definitely use the "Billet Treatment". Its in work, don't worry (just trying to find lower tooling costs!).
Look for our billet R32 hood release handle, 1.8T coolant flange, MK5 camber plates, MK3 and MK4 Skid Plates (MK5 soon, too!), and many other great parts.
