[Error404]

cool, its about time you got off your butt and did some work on it

[willg54]

I have a huge box of bits to play with

Ive taken today and monday off work to get this car going! Dropped by quattro corner with a big shopping list! All the belts, waterpump, thermostat, crank pulley, bolts, front ball joints blah blah blah

Finished the last hub, and bushes into the front wishbones, sorted my discs to get skimmed so a productive day! Bring on the mass build tomorrow

i'm sure i'll be posting pics as it goes!

its happening again...im not able to work on the car so im spending money.

just ordered all the fittings i need to finish my fuel lines.

3 x -6 straight fittings
1 x -6 90 degree
2 x bosch to -6 adaptor
1m -6 braided hose

that was a cheap shop....not!

[s2_wot]

it's looking good Will

[willg54]

not working on my car every weekend is truely horrible, but i do have to say...my job is AWESOME!!

One good thing...pay cheques! Currently have plenty of bits on order so when go home in a couple of weeks, i'll have lots of toys to fit

Mocal Oil cooler is turning out expensive fittings are more expensive!

[willg54]

well ive officially moved away...70miles from my S2

before i left, i put the intake on, wastegate cover on and she was looking seeeeexy! all the uprights, driveshafts etc were all ready to finish...it'll have to wait for next weekend now...9 days with no S2...what will i do? Paint body work, thats what!

[willg54]

just ordered some anodised nuts for the wastegate cover from that shop...

[Twenny Benson]

Thats better

[willg54]

i think the flared washers for the coil cover

anyway, this might be the last update for a while with me moving away unless i avoid packing my stuff in the morning anyway....

Nice clean CV joints!








Inlet finally painted and just for you Twenny Benson...the wastegate cover

[Twenny Benson]

I did question if it was a good idea posting that link haha

You know it makes sense, just dont look at the flared or drilled washers
