Of course you can. You need to be at least VR1 to do so. In order to play the veteran dungeon, the leader of the group needs to set the mode from normal to veteran in the group window (at the top you can see two 'shields') before entering the dungeon. That dungeon needs to have its veteran mode of course since only the dungeons located in the first three zones of AD and DC territory and the first two zones of EP territory have their veteran variant.

If you use the group finder to enter the dungeon, you'll be scaled up, so your stats are about the same as a max level player if you have usefull gear. If you don't use the group finder, everyone will stay at his level and the dungeon will scale to the leader. So if you are leader and go with other people that are around v8, you'll do fine, if the group leader is v16 and the other people have low vet ranks, it will be harder than usuall.

You should be fine doing vet dungeons at your level however I'd recommend hitting v16 before farming monster sets like engine guardian because a vet16 set will be a lot more useful than a vet 8 set

Only in the Drop you will. The Drop will scale to you so you end up with a VR8 piece.

Funny thing, the first time I defeated that boss, I got the Helm. Probably never get the shoulders now.
