Looks amazing work dude!! great stuff!!...
Just one thing though!.. Something which I detest on the original s2's.
The brakes. They are very bad. They need a minimum of a big brake upgrade.
Its so much safer to drive and looks nice . Esp with your new power upgrade.
I've used standard brakes and now have porsche 996 brakes. They do the job nicely ! .

Keep up the good work ! you've inspired me ! I just need a decent garage and time!! haha enjoy my friend!

Thank you so much Chris for you kind words. it really motivate me to keep going.
I could not agree with you more about the brakes hence why there is a set of Big Reds waiting on the shelf to be fitted when the engine is all sorted

Hi Piotr what a cracking thread I sorted my subframes out last year and it makes a hell of a difference and out a new rear diff on also. You've done a Great job inside and also outside. My big project for next year is full respray taking everything out and alloys refurbed and Porsche breaks then mines completely sorted good luck with rest of yours and I look forward to seeing it at ADI

Hi and thank you Anthony
Oh yes ,new bushes made a huge difference,however I was not 100% happy becouse the guy who did my geometry said that one of the values is apparently adjusted by moving front subframe and he was not sure how to do itSo obviously before car will go back on the road,i will need to take it for geometry set up elsewhere.my plans looks pretty much like a copy of yours
When the engine will be back in ,next step will be respray,S8 Mk1 Avus,big reds and then i will sell it becouse i will be too scared to scratch it
Good luck with your project and photo competition
