struikie - Audi 80 B4 quattro project

[Bowie69]

Ok, well, that's news to me! Assumed it was a ford-own engine, they did have one after all, ended up in all sorts including jags.

It was the galaxy/Sharan collaboration.

Jase.

[Bowie69]

Ah, makes more sense!

[struikie]

Fitted the Focal 165KRX3 set and wired to the right side of the boot.
Still waiting on the head unit to arrive. First I'll run the set off the
head unit. Later on I'll add a DSP amp and active sub.




Found the rare trunk battery cover!
Couldn't let I pass! I has has some cracks, but that can be reinforced on
the back side.

Great project.
You won't go with a VR6 2.9 from Golf MK3 syncro or corrado?

[struikie]

I had the opportunity to get two 24V's.
Also my tuner said that the 24V make power a little bit more easily.

Nice! I am running some Focals up front in my S2 Coupe! Lovely sound....

[struikie]

Thanks!
I thought the reflection of the mids in the wind screen would be an issue,
but it is actually the glare of the silver tweeters that annoy me a bit...
Maybe I'll try and wrap the edges in matt black.

I have focal 100mm in the dash locations and Kenwood Tweeters sunk into the small airvent pockets...

[Henkjan]

looking great JW

My First VR6


I'll get the other (new) VR6 soon as well. So I will have two of them
waiting... probably for more than a year before anything will be fitted

Great job on a different kind of B4 project
Thats what we like

[BLAMM0]

Love the brake adapter work and the Focal install How many amplifiers are you using for it?
Where did you order your braided hoses from?

[struikie]

At the moment 0 amplifiers hahaha
My headunit is still on the ship in the Suez canal....
I plan an runnnig two amps. One Mosconi D2 100.4 DSP for the tweets and mids and
a Mosconi D2 150.2 for the kicks (on the extra dsp outputs of the 100.4).
Sub will be a Audison APBX10AS2.
