Project "Sooty"

[Jas11n]

Forgot to update this. Black lights are now sold.

Ellipsoids have been sourced, thanks to Pete (acidburn) for the heads up and Sal for the lights
Sal, you are one of a kind

The diesel is going to be getting some water injection soon, but I need to split it into two gasses first :mischeif:

Now where's my white coat gone?? Mumble mutter mumble

[Acidburn]

sounds like a good idea from what i've heard from various comments you've put on sites jas

[Animal Mother]

Looking sweet.

I'd slam it to the deck by another inch or two though, give it that euro look.

I'd sue the *** off Audi for the jack failure, seriously. Imagine if you were changing a wheel on the hard shoulder and the car dropped and you jumped back as an automatic reaction, right into a truck!

For those wondering WTF I'm on about above. I'm making and installing a hydroxy booster. More mpg, lower emissions and a marginal increase in power.

Yes, yes, I'll be careful.

Jase..

.. yeah right! he starts off with the idea of cheering up a tired old dag dag and ends up trying to give it some sort of Mr Fusion Device to go with his secret Flux Capacitor!! You just want that little bit of extra little kick when you hit 88 mph

This is what you're really installing in the back Doc!!





Great Scott! !!

Ok, Tada the finale. The end of project "Sooty" The invasion of the dag dag is over.

Approved and signed off by Oscar. It's his mode of transport as much as mine

[Flat on my back]

Niiiice.

think the pipes need to be chrome now...the back end's missing something and maybe a subtle boot lip spoiler?

Say'd it again...nice.

Absolutely awesome Jase! Sterling work

Great facility with the photos.

They're bigger to start with than the thumbnail photos that seem to be pervading the forum's threads now?, and can be blown up even bigger if necessary with a convenient click.

My £0.02 is that all photos should ideally be much bigger than the thumbnail size and be visible in "full size" all the time in the thread, (i.e. the unblown up size used in this latest post by Jas11n), as one scrolls down the thread, without any need to click to open the photo and then another click to close.

There may be a reason for the thumbnail size being necessary that I've missed, but someone in the know might advise?

Mind you, can't load a photo onto this forum to save my life.

BTW, Car is fantastic, one minor observation if it was mine I'd lower the rear to have a level stance rather than a nose down stance.

While you've enough to be doing, would the red coloured reg. no. panel from a Coupe be an item to add to the car?

Kind regards.

[Jas11n]

Thanks guys. Loving the look of the car as it is. As noted, the rear seems to sit a bit high, not sure why as they are a set of spax springs. The spare wheel isn't in the boot in those shots, so makes it look a little worse.
I can't fit the coupe rear number plate surround, it's a lot more recessed and deeper than the saloons. I wouldn't anyway David, I wanted the bone stock S2 saloon look and that's what it has now.
Carlos, you've confirmed it, along with a couple of others, about the exhaust. I'm going to whip the matt paint off and see what it looks like. It can always go back on if not right.


David, I don't use this sites facility for hosting images into threads. I make two copies of my pictures, one at 800x600, the other at full size and host them elsewhere.
Then use BBcode to create the clickable links.

The site has very good and often unread FAQ section, lots of BBcode usages are explained. Link >>> HERE.

OK so,

Jase,

The spare wheel will not change the stance enough, IMHO. I note the two reasons for not fitting the red panel. If I pause to think , I very much agree with your idea of keeping stock looking.

BTW would the Coupe panel fit on an Avant, if one puts on a seperete solenoid to trigger the opening of the tailgate? Just curious !

Like a fair proportion of males, I never read the instructions at the outset, and when I glance at the stuff in the link I know why.

Will have to take time to read and assimilate it, or get my brother to decipher it on my behalf.

Thanks again.

Thanks again.

Again the Coupes rear panel is way too deep.
Although as an Avant owner David, you have the option of fitting the Audi 90 rear panel.
I can't even fit that if I wanted too. Reason being the B4 80 saloon has a much larger boot lock. The 90 and Avant have a smaller one. If I were to attempt to fit the 90 rear panel, the B4 80's boot lock would not fit through hole in the 90 rear panel.

The only option a B4 80 saloon could have, although untested by anyone I know, is using a Cabriolet rear section. It's the right width and height, and the hole for the boot lock is the right size, but whether it's in the right place I don't know. Cabriolet rear panels are hard to come by.

HTH's mate,
Jase..
