Description
VR6 Girdle Kit for 3.2 FSI, 3.6 FSI and R36 Engines
The Krabifab VR6 Girdle Kit is designed to increase bottom-end strength and reliability for Volkswagen VR6 3.2 FSI, 3.6 FSI and R36 engines. This reinforcement kit helps reduce main bearing cap movement and improves engine block rigidity under high cylinder pressures.
This 10 mm girdle plate is manufactured from high-strength Strenx 650 structural steel and is designed for demanding applications including turbocharged, supercharged and high-power naturally aspirated VR6 engines.
Why Choose the Krabifab VR6 Girdle Kit?
Unlike a simple reinforcement plate, the Krabifab VR6 Girdle Kit is manufactured using multiple precision machining processes to ensure excellent fitment and reliability.
Each girdle starts as a 10 mm Strenx 650 steel plate. The plate is laser cut for accurate geometry, surface ground on both sides for improved flatness, and CNC machined with precision O-ring grooves.
The complete kit includes genuine ARP2000® fasteners, precision-machined bushings and O-rings, providing all required components for installation.
