My 95 S2 Avant Project. LZ5T Coolness

[irishs2]

Aint that the truth. It was difficult enough just taking it off the engine stand and getting it onto my makeshift stand to do the flywheel.

Another concern is to use the correct bolts in the right holes for the gearbox<>engine. I never took note of them.

Could have verified what's what on your Coupe ?

Check your spare Avant ?

Someone will have a photo or info on this. It is a regular obstacle to come up against.

Looking good, as ever.

Looking super

Thanks.... and oh my coupe



"Dont forget the dualmass gearbox spacer". I kept saying to myself over and over.


Changed the release bearing that was included in the clutch kit.



Systems are a go


"C'mon Tars"

And with a lot of struggling


Reunited for the first time in over 2 years.

Looking super

Thanks

Hope you're keeping well

Money shot


Getting to that stage was one of my favourite parts of the project. Hope you're enjoying it fella

[irishs2]

There is still a HUGE amount of work to do but yea its exciting and I am enjoying it for sure.

[saltinot]

Mine too! I prefer putting them together that way than doing it in the car.

Revel in it Eric!

[irishs2]

I think so too. I have never fitted one but from watching yours and Alexs build I am copying the method.

Great progress Eric. Nice photos. I had only heard about (but not seen) that spacer before. Not sure why it is needed on a B4 and not on a C4.

Different flywheel on the ABY/RS2.

Are you fooling us? I'm sure you know the C4 uses a thinner dual mass flywheel andtherefore not needing the spacer?

So would it be a good mod for an ABY / ADU where one didn't want the weight / inertia of dual mass flywheel, but equally didn't want a 'crudity' of 7A type flywheel ?

Just curious, as happy with my UrS6 in its standard format.

Based on the number of S2s and RS2s officially imported into Canada (exactly NONE) and the number of grey market S2s and RS2s that have been imported into Canada under the 15 year rule that I have seen (0 S2s (I don't even know where any are) and 3 RS2s that I have seen (maybe 6 in Canada)) - and they were not a part), NO, I did not/do not know that the ABY/ADU dual mass flywheels are different than the C4 AAN dual mass flywheels.

I see now that the ABY/ADU flywheel is 034105266E and the AAN flywheel is 034105266C. But there is no info about thickness nor have I ever seen a posting comparing the thickness of the two different dual mass flywheels.

SO, bottomline, no, I have not trying to fool the forum. But I did learn something (and will document it somewhere - photos welcomed).
