I like the idea of the needle bearings.
And i am curious how you are going to mount the front ARB blades aswell

yep

Fair play for a lad of your age, in fact for a lad of any age this quite ambitious project. I like the way your not scared to try new things and be different. I'm sure once completed you'll have a unique RS2. Respect to you sir

Thank you for the kind words
If you dont try, you dont learn

When i was 13 me and my dad chopped up an old Volvo 142 and smashed down a Volvo t5 engine with K27 Bmw m3 Gearbox and Bmw m5 rear axle

I cant wait to see this project completed.
The time and effort will all be worth it.
Then it's time for a Youtube film on the track.

[lind4hl]

Jersey_paul: thank you, i hope that it will be worth the time and money also

Adam_w: i you´re nearby, just give me a shout

Did big service on the beemer today also, but i had to look at some parts for the rs also

Heres the coil-over build so far, im an going to buy 100mm "helping springs" also to hold the springs in place when the shock is fully out, forgot to order these

the shock is getting 33mm down in rideheight than this also



going to norway on monday and no time to work on the car before i think

[lind4hl]

Ordered the Helpersprings today 100mm long and 40LBS sent them to my mates house so they are home when i am back from Norway. Also another friend promised me the coil-over sleeves should be done and posted to me when im home, hopefully have fully working coilovers in 2-3weeks if i have time when i come home..

[lind4hl]

Sitting in norway and got some MMS from my mate, (thank you Tomas )

the coil-over sleeves are nearly finished, just need some machining for the key to adjust the nuts up/down

pics on them: there are 2 nuts at the bottom, so they are not that thick)

[konradwax]

f&%$in nice

[TimE-J]

looks like really nice qualitly machining

[quattro84]

Why use billets in stead of thin wall extrudes? Do you like to make spån? :mischeif:
What kind of thread did you use on the sleeves?
Looks like ordinairy steel to weld onto the RS2 legs.

[lind4hl]

i have not machined them, only a simple paint drawing that my mate made into cad etc. so why he used billet i dont know, Tomas, if you read this, register and answer
threads i dont know for sure either, i only said as huge as possible that fits.

yes regular blacksteel that will be spot-welded


also 1 set for sale, can maybe make more...

[lind4hl]

going home tomorrow, 700km VW transporter is not funny though

got my last springs and my b-pillar carbon trim, lying at my mate atm..

[lind4hl]
