building a sportquattro

[Jeffer]

Well the new ignition arrived. New dyno day is planned in 3 weeks . Exciting!

[Jeffer]

Never used the Bram, so if you say so

[Bram]

Konis will work

Ok, final bits are heading this way.

Faulkner springs, custom made to suit the SQ suspension
450 and 500 lbs/in
7 inch long springs

Sadly no AST dampers but Koni adjustables
Sport 86 2086SPD2

And new ignition CDI driver.

Bitburg 20th may is the first 1/4 mile run of this year.

They are pretty stable. Never had a moments doubt it would fall over.

How do you find the scissor lift to work on?

[Jeffer]

Just weighed the car. Its 1300 kgs with me in there (80 kgs) and a full tank of fuel.
Front weighs 760 kgs
rear weighs 540 kgs

Bit more then I expected. But still happy with that.

Awesome results so far Jeffers.
Looking forward to the retake on the dyno when you fit the new ignition!!

awesome project Jeffer...bravo.....hope we'll hear thar beast soon

[Jeffer]

I noticed on the dyno that one axles was "slightly" bent.
So we went about it with the hamer. Man, that axle is solid . Couple of whacks did the job, sort of... Well it held the dyno abuse.

I probably bent it last year. Not this time on the dyno in any event.

Looking forward to seeing you there

[Jeffer]

btw, I'll be going to prescott hill with the Sport Quattro on the 19th of August. So around that date I'll be driving around in the UK.
