UrS6 Saloon restoration

[Wrath]

Hi Wrath,I'm just wondering how efficient you found this guy @ (at au-tel.de) ? I'm currently having trouble getting hold of him.Sent an email 3 days ago requesting parts/prices and no reply.Is this normal for him? It's doing my head in as i hate waiting around for nothing whilst i could be getting on with jobs. Cheers Mark.

Have bought Audi parts from him the last three years and have always got an answer the same day, but last order one thing was broken and he refused to help me (à 50€ part)
So then i terminated our relation, hade bought parts for 2000€ from him...

His loss, sorry that I couldnt help you more...

Regards
Goeran

Did make a copy of the Thuppu Cayenne brake adapter and have it done in aluminum in cad, going to try em out to see If I can use them. Then maybe other people are interested. They are for the HP2 struts by the way.



I have also sorted the missing parts to the front suspension Had to buy em from the stealer, but got it from Germany trough Heiko @ au-tel.de so I was only half the price



He was nice to send me a pen Have probably bought stuff trough him for like 1k£

Any who, things are looking brighter and I can see the light. Although I just bought a house so I hope I can sort out the car before the move in August... but things need to be done there as well

That has crossed My mind am about to give My Hyundai away to My girlfriend and have looked at à A6 allroad -12-14 for à daily driver or à 525 , 530 xdrive -13-14

But then i was thinking of à cheaper and more fun car like another 2.2 or V8

[macspring]

But it will be done as soon my priorities with The house is done

It's still a lifelong project

You'll appreciate the house all the better when it is done.

These cars are lifelong, but you're definitely halfway there.

When it's done you can buy and fettle a UrS6+ 4.2L Avant for use as a daily driver.

Yeah if i have had The time to fix My garage i could have done it by know, but the car is in storage in another location, and as soon summer is here i will change roof and build à carport on The house and fix the garage... But it will be done as soon my priorities with The house is done

Its still a lifelong project

[macspring]

Should be pretty much done by then.

Albert's farb bracket is worth doing.

Thanks for update.

Mac:

No not at the moment, bought a house in October so all the time went there
So The car is in winter storage, but will do this in the summer:

New springs (changing Eibach to H&R)
Change rear bumper rubber for rear shocks
Install the new turbo
Change seal to sun roof
Realigning the windowframes om the front doors and changing tweeters in The doors.
(Have done quite à speaker install but tweeters are à little weak)
Remap

And then just enyoing the car, have plans for some better brake servo then the bomb and maybe changing bushings for the controlarms and farb to Albert design...

[macspring]

Any updates ?

Thanks either way.

[Wrath]

Had to reinstall OEM turbo thue to smokey turbo, Albert to the rescue, new turbo on the way... No gen2 but better with a gen1 k26/k27 than OEM

Excellent news wrath.Looking forward to some fresh pictures of a newly waxed car.

Car is finished, have done the 4-wheel alignment, refilled the ac system, bleeded the brakes and bleeded the cooler. Going to remap it tomorrow and have it MOT tested. Have just washed it as it had 2 year of dust on it, looks quite good but needs a good polish, the car feels real good with a new chassie but the MOT will give me a receipt how even the brakes is, don´t know if I have a little air still in the system as it pulls a little to the right when I brake hard and let go of the wheel , could be the width of the tyres and spacers as the roads aint 100% straight

[Wrath]

Hmm, I see, this polished edge makes the spokes really tight against the caliper, ET is 45 so without spacers for say 15mm they will touch the caliper

I was thinking of buying these:



19" RS6 or mk1,2 are hard to get hold of here in Sweden, and that rim in the Picture is dead cheap with some quite good quality to it
like 135-140£ each

[Ficksy Heart]

my wheels are 8j x 18“ ET48 no spacers.

i had think about it to go on 19" LM's, i like the look of your car!

[macspring]

Thanks guys re disc size replies.

[Wrath]

Macspring: thanks mate

Ficksy: i love those wheels, what ET are those? Hade to put 17mm spacers on mines as they are ET45
Gonna get similair wheels in The future but this will have too do it for now

I use my own adapters but similair to Thuppus, The disc is 360x34
