    cool thats the one i'd seen, not available from any uk suppliers then?
  2. sharky_70
    wait a sec, so i could drop my 440's in using the stock MAF, a MAF clamp and the begi? this'll be ok? like Jim, as a stop gap
  3. sharky_70
    what one are you VRT guys using/used when running a Begi? i hear split second tuning mentioned, but they list a few on their site. whats the one to go for? also are they available in the uk or just order fromt he states?

    nice work yeah bridgestones dont have the strongest sidewalls. nice for a stretch but not for flex running 215/35 Falken ZE912 on my 9.5's and theyre a lot stronger
  5. sharky_70
    ah i see! an adapter into the oil temp.
  6. sharky_70
    Kev ive had a quick scan back though, but where do you plum your turbo oil feed from? the filter housing?
  7. sharky_70
    Bodge i bumped this up because i found an audi 02m for £150!

    binliner - my KW v1's have just arrived so when ive got them on i'll let you know how they are

    i'd say the opposite. why would you need air-ride for a show car, that only gets driven to and from shows? if i had 2k i'd get air-ride you can make it handle far better these days. you can get kits to use any shock insert you want, so kw, koni... then uprated arbs and polybushes jobs a gooden

    yeah i know i just wanna know if i can get something from the uk to avoid crap exchange rate and duties
  11. sharky_70

    poop again. i was actually considering it as a possible 'cheap' alternative to rebuilding with an lsd. the 6 speed would just be a bonus. ah well i'll wait for a good price on the wavetrak
  13. sharky_70
    poop ah well im raising the engine anyway so makes no difference i guess
  14. sharky_70
    WOW. walking away from that then!
  15. sharky_70
    thats typically thoughtfull of them did the R32 type VR go into anything else, like the VR went into galaxy and alhambra? (see what im thinking here?)
  16. sharky_70
    ok so just jumping on this... apart from the mounts etc whats needed to make the 02M work on a VR? how do you close off the prop shaft? what clutch?
  17. sharky_70
    looking at that, can you not use the shorter R32 oil pipe on the VR pump? almost cuts the conversion cost in half then...
  18. sharky_70
    ok guys so whats involved? obv. needs to have the prop shaft taken out of the equation, but you just take it out and get a plate made to blank it off? C2 do a mount now i see does it fit straight up to the VR block? what about flywheel, clutch etc?
  19. sharky_70
    same situation myself at the moment pretty much everyone ive spoken to has said KW v1's mines not a daily as such, but its my only car and i dont track it, but i run it very low been told that down to 100mm they feel like 30mm! so must be pretty good if anyone knows where i can get them cheaper than 625 i'd appreciate it!
  20. sharky_70
    your engine must be very healthy Jim those are some very impressive figures from what is essentially a modest set-up
  21. sharky_70
    again just fantastic work only seen the stock air box used on one other VRT and that was in the states, does look so much more trick and OE
  22. sharky_70
    with tyres and wider outers, new bolts, getting the outers restored (they were pitted to F**k) paint plus buying the wheels prob £800 theyre merc fitment so im running adapters up front and had the rear disks redrilled to 5x112
  23. sharky_70
    not as much as you'd think! bought them used but original, fitted genuine BBS 2.5" rear dishes, new satin black bolts and respayed the centres just sold my 17" versions too
  24. sharky_70

  25. sharky_70
