ABY to ADU Project

[Jamo]

Right the cats out the bag i've been planning and buying since the turn of the year on converting my ABY to ADU spec

Sourced to date:

- RS2 Turbo + RS2 EM
- RS2 IC + Crossmember
- RS2 Injectors & RS2 FPR
- Bosch 044 fuel pump
- RS2 airbox
- Samco water and boost hoses
- RS2 front grill
- RS2 exhaust Cam
- RS2 cam sprocket
- Sports Exhaust




Chassis:

- Porsche Monoblock front brakes 304 discs
- Bilstein B6 shocks
- Whiteline RARB
- RS2 FARB
- Forged front wishbones

Exterior:

- S8 alloys with 225/40/18 Continental Contact Sport 2
- Extreme HID kit from VAG parts


To source when funds allow:

- Superflex bushes
- Uprated bushes for forged wishbones (non powerflex)
- Uprated Clutch for Dual mass flywheel
- Head porting and new cutback valves
- MRC remap
- RS6 front brakes
- New 034 coil packs



What i need is some advice on what uprated clutch to get that allows me to keep the dual mass, failing that give in and go to a 3B flywheel

thought i could smell buring plastic in the air!!!! Good luck, only a touch envious

So i'm not the only one with a parts collection in the closet :mischeif:

Whats different with the RS2 FPR? ...must have missed that one

Dump the dual mass, you know it makes sense, when you have them side by side its a no brainer.

Ask Aelred if you want info on Clutchnet products or Corey if you want info on Spec units. Other options are Precision Clutch, Sachs, etc..

I know you won a set of forged wishbones that i outbid you on but my IE crashed when i hit submit bid

No matter i found another set

Higher rating than the ABY one, you can use a 7A one, they are about £5-15 2nd hand.

I got a complete RS2 fuel rail with all the connectors and injectors.

Would be interested to know on the clutch situation, I smelt clutch after one on 1/4 mile.

Im not sure the RS2 exhaust cam is any different to the S2 one though?

[mcandmar]

LOL thats what you get for using IE

I actually bought two sets, the first two i bought were different so i ended up with one arm off a ur-quattro ...i assume you are talking about the second set which was quite recent?

Is the RS2 FPR 4 bar too? i thought only the 3b engine had a lower rating?

Cheers,

Mark.

It is Greg, different timing, Pisobiker has posted the specs

It was from a seller in germany and it was recent couple of weeks to a month.

RS2 FPR is 3.8 bar IIRC i don't know what the ABY one is i'll have to do a search:

http://www.s2forum.com/forum/showthr...hlight=FPR+bar

http://www.s2forum.com/forum/showthr...hlight=FPR+bar

3B = 3 Bar
ABY = 4 Bar
RS2 = 3.8 Bar

Wonder why the RS2 FPR was backed off?

Fair play Jamo! That is going to be a tidy motor when you are done.

Update

RS2 Grille and RS2 Exhaust cam added too the collection

Just wondering, does nothing come up under the search button

Nope everybody ditches the dual mass for the 3B flywheel, i just can't bring myself to do that

Mihnea recommends an LUK clutch but other than that most people ditch the dual mass.

[s2avant]

The dual mass gets ditched because it weighs too much and when it breaks it will set you back £765.73 + VAT!!!

I made the mistake of fitting a new OE clutch to mine only to have the dual mass goe south after a couple of thousand more miles. Two bills to remove the gearbox is not fun

Lightweight alloy all the way. You should have had a go revving mine at GTi the difference between ABY dual mass and Alloy is a world apart.
