cull on srs?

But you are your own tuner

[prj]

Doesn't help the million people saying "but I read this on a forum, so it must be right".

It's a lot better with 2.2T and S2Forum, because people here are dedicated and know a lot about these cars, and common mistakes get quickly put right.

But with the newer cars there is just so much misinformation...

[Rusty]

Can we ban one of the plebs each week to keep them on their toes?

[Jamo]

You just can't compare most other car forums to s2forum. Especially ones that cater for newer Audis, and the snobbery that goes with them.

A lot of us on here are in it for the long haul, and like to know our cars inside out.
You have to have your heart in an S2, otherwise it makes very little sense to own one.

I have tried to use other Audi forums, but most are the same.
People ask the same old stupid questions. Plus first hand experience can never win over "My tuner says ..."

Yeah and what stage is your car at

6 years is it Stu?

[4WheelDrifter]

6 years it is. So like many of us, no one can accuse me of owning the S2 as some sort of status symbol, unlike some that frequent other Audi S car forums. I'm tuning the S2 to make it better for me to drive, not for pub figures.

I have tried to spend some time photographing and documenting first hand information to contribute to this forum, which eats into working time considerably, but is hopefully worth it. We're lucky that we have so many hands-on members that do the same.
I don't do it as some sort of competition to have the most knowledge, but to help others out, as I know many will do the same regarding the many things I don't have knowledge of

I think loba has some great products other than their ridiculous pricing on some items. Despite the pricing would still buy it and recommend it to customers if it wasn't for their agent super**ick. Who with his wealth of inexperience and lack of knowledge and should've stuck to computer games has put me of from ever recommending loba to anyone.
Saying that the only product loba supplies I can't get somewhere else is their cams and after seeing a pic of the lobes knocked of them just like stock ones I wouldn't waste my money on them either.

as good as the rs4 cams i had from you.....with no threads....must be 2.5 years since you had them back to rectify

[JP]

^^^^ they were 2.4 cams. Still in my loft as I was not given any instructions by anyone other than jack that sold them to you to blast as they were rusty, not something I would want to do to a set of cams but I do what I'm told. However you've never asked me to sort them, in person, by phone or email. Asked Jack what he wanted me to do and he said not his problem. If however you would like me to sort them let me know and then maybe I can have my loft space back. You know how to get hold of me.

[quattronutter]

they were sold to me as 'as new'received full of wet sand which had rusted the threads away...no contact from jack...contact was made via your other customers for me on several occasions

[JP]

Lol sounds like you've been done over. Only communication to me was via pete who never gave me a definitive answer as what you wanted done with them.

So for the benefit of everyone here as this is public now.

You buy a set of new rs4 cams from someone who actually supplies you with rusty 2.4 cams that were blasted clean by request of the seller. Done as a favour by myself with no exchange of money for the service as I dissagreed with it.

You receive said cams and realise they are not as described. Hand the cams to someone that knows me of the forum and is passing through on his way home dropping them of to me with ambiguous instructions as what to do with them. As from what I understood was you didn't want them and was taking it up with the seller.

Apparantly though I have missinterpreted this and am now guilty for providing you with a dodgy product despite never having sold anything to you or having received any money for any services from anyone.

I will however out of courtesy if you so desire to have these cams. Clean them, polish the lobes, clean the threads and make them as new as one could make them under the circumstances of what they are. All at no charge to yourself. You can then have these cams at your convenience when you collect them in person. They'll be done for the weekend if instructed to do so by yourself in your reply.

Sound fair?

[quattronutter]

sounds fair, lots of miss understandings going on with these,much appreciated,no rush for the weekend though

[rj scotty]

I get the impression this would not have been solved in this way over on srs

Long live the s2 forum

[Jamo]

I'm going to have to step of srs for the day to cool down, the lack of technical knowledge from certain people on there is driving me nuts

I'm not in an arguement that large port manifolds are better just because

You can't keep coming back on here just because you fall out with your new friends you know
