user ID 'Audibits' seller on ebay

[Crawford_S2]

sorry didnt want to ruffle any feathers i am not saying no one on here has a s2 but i can bet you some of the posts directed at me are comming from non s2 owners all i want is to get involved as i intend modding my s2 and need all your expertees without being ribbed all the time i am a genuine person always wanted a s2 now i have it i want to make it the dogs you know whats first question would i need to mod my manifold at all to install a k26 turbo or does it go straight on i just feel the 3b is holding back on the power

Its cool dude, just enjoy the resource we have here like the rest of us, its really important to a lot on here that it remains and allways is a true enthusiasts forum with a friendly feel. As for mods there are so many threads on manifolds and such, search away and you too will be enlightened, peace

Now if you had said you had an S2 in the first place it would have been different!

The search function is your friend.

Cheers,

Steve.

If that people tried boycotting his sales, there will always be people willing to by stuff off him and he could even possibly change his name on there or start fresh or something.

i have too good a reputation world wide to change my user id that is left to the scammers and bad business men i started 2 years ago with a highly moded 90 my son descided to crash bought it back from the insurance and broke her many a cold day and night in a car park getting soaked through crawling about in the dirt now 2 years on i have built up a succesful busines with only 11 negatives out of 5200 positives i try and sort out problems but you must remember the other side of the coin i had a spate of buyers buying expensive parts and then saying they hadnt recieved them guess who had to pay they money back now all my parts over £10 go with dhl or recorded and guess what nothing ever goes missing any more apart from the odd royal mail muck up i hope this puts some minds at ease just check out my feedback on ebay cheers mike

Well I too have been sitting on the fence regarding this thread as both sides are correct (and incorrect) to a degree (ignoring all the digs and swearing).

Mike, you do seem to list far to many parts as fitting an S2 when they don't. Please don't even think about trying to argue this one, as the collective wisdom on this site is mind-blowing. I personally started ignoring your listings as it did annoy me, unless I was specifically looking for something you tend to offer.

On the other hand, I have bought quite a few things from you in the past and everything went very well (you'll not remember me as they were last year...same name as here). You even emailed me to apologise that something I had won was incorrectly described and by the time I read my email, the refund was with me

My advice moving forwards would be (in no particular order)....

1. Join the S2Forum and get to know everyone (oh, already started....good move )

2. Only describe your listings as S2 if you are absolutely certain. You can always ask on here, as we can tell you and get first dibs on the parts....how’s that?

3. Choose a side - you either drive a Coupe or a Hearse. Since you have a 3B you are a Coupe boy, so start on the coffin jokes at every opportunity

4. Don't argue with anyone about Audi numbers, parts, types, models etc. You would be amazed just how many folks on here are parts managers for Audi garages, own Audi based businesses, have owned Audis all their lives or currently own more Audis than children and wife’s added together

5. Dangerous tactic challenging whether people on here have or know their S2's matey.....221 people have voted on the what colour their S2/RS2 is....what does that tell you?

6. Sort your brakes out before tuning the engine...that way you'll live to sell us more cheap Audibits.(pun intended)

7. Get along to the next meeting, have a beer and laugh, then start taking the Michael (wow, another pun) out of Fatty and Jamo….we all do

Cheers n

Si

P.S. How odd is this?....I'm almost acting as peacekeeper, when my primary role on this forum is to create humour and abuse people at every opportunity.....Right, where's Jamo, I feel the need....the need to abuse

hi mate, yeah I have had no problems with buying from you only thing i've had before is I tried contacting you a couple of times about parts but did not get an answer, might have just missed the email or something. Unfortunately I don't have that car now so prob saved me money in the long run Cheers for your time when I did ask questions and get a response tho, you was helpfull.

I'm very supprised you didnt ad fuel to the fire Si a very level headed post though.

Nah, I see my role on here as closer to chief humourist and hearse basher.

My usual targets are Fatty and Jamo, Mike doesn't even register on my radar....yet So when Jamo defected to the dead-side....it was more than I could have ever asked for.....the opportunities for abuse are virtually boundless

What would finish it off would be Fatty selling one of his pink-mobiles and buying a pink hearse to polish every weekend.......oh I'm in pain from laughter just thinking about it

[Acidburn]

Lmao, um how many pies can you fit in a hearse? just out of interest?

[Greg_S]

all i want is to learn about the s2 as she is my first and i want to get her in tip top shape i like to mod my cars usually starting under the bonnet as theres no point in having the looks but not the guts i need to know which is the largest turbo i can put on her without modding anything also i have heard by putting a larger intercooler on this will improve bhp as long as i dont fill it up with water lol

There is lots of threads on the forum, the easy and tried and tested route is the RS2 setup which requires little internal mods other than a metal head gasket.

Might be worth posting an intro thread with a few pics of your car & plans etc now that the air has been cleared
