are you sure that the exhaust manifold with your turbo will fit in the ur- engine room?
with my tubular exhaust manifold(was made for s2) and gt30-35 i had to cut in the inner wing to make room for the airfilter and had just enough space between turbo and inner wing and between turbo and the bonnet
worry's for later..........
i have also a rs4 b7 gearbox waiting to go in,this will be my next job!
first with the gt35 on the dyno so i can see if my clutch will hold the power before i gonna swap the gearbox
I hope it fits! Will find out tomorrow. If not I have a plasma cutter....
Not sure yet. Again I'm not scared to cut steel or bumper for that matter to make something big fit. I have a sport style grill which should give more room.
It's in! The gearbox fits too without any tunnel bashing. Need to make up gearbox mount brackets or get some from james. Just up on a strap for now. Also need to mess with prop shafts to get something sorted that fits. The urq shaft is slightly too long. A Urs4 shaft is about 2 inch approx short but I could make up a spacer for the diff end.
New starter fitted. Much lighter than the last one.
Timing belt too slack so need to make bigger tensioner. This is with a 80mm modification. Last one was ok with 82mm but due to the block skimming I need more like 85 mm.
Did that good a job with the thread lock and bearing fit I had to make up a fitting for the slide hammer to get the tensioner off.
One front drive shaft fitted with the help of Alex. Needed a6 shaft with S2 outer cv. The other shaft I had was wrong and wouldn't fit the S2 outer so another one is ordered. Front brakes fitted with pads.
Strange that you need a shorter shaft than the urq shaft, i use an urq shaft and 01e gearbox, currently fitting a gearbox from an s6+. Is the b7 gearbox longer than a normal 01e?
I didn't measure the box but I suppose it must be longer if the urq shaft is a tad too long. About 30mm too long at a guesstimate. A spacer and a Urs4 shaft look perfect. Just waiting on a new center bearing coming then I can confirm the length of the spacer I need.
