Will your Church be on Grand Designs ?

Looking forward to further updates.

Prj would be a good route imo.

No, I didn't really want Kevin McLeod poking around with his ****** comments

After you posted earlier I did wonder if you meant that....does any of you have pics of custom bracket work? Is it possible to use ABY / 3b brackets?

Sadly this won't be the only bridge We'll have to cross!

I would just use ABY/3B mounts it will be a direct fit. The AAN serpentine belt arrangement does really obstruct the rad in the B3/B4 chassis so again ABY/3B/7A brackets can be used

Brilliant thats ironed that out!

Sounds good. Im at the stage of clearing the bay to weld the mounts in.
Doubt mine will be as clean though.

If yours is a 16v then we are on almost identical projects and part collections

It was a 2.0 16v quattro (6A).

I'm still working through parts lists for some of the niggly parts, hoses, clips, etc....

Have you got a thread?

[GazzaG60]

Not yet. Im lazy like that. Took some pics though.

Engine is out. Dash out. Aby dash and engine loom in. Fusebox swapped.
So far all the bilkhead screws are in the correct places for the loom braxkets

What's your rear diff plans etc.

[GazzaG60]

Let me know what you need
I got loads o bits. Any. I may not need them all as in Wagner inlet and ic. Also may have spare hoses

Get posting man, we all love pics!

Rear diff - haven't looked into it much except I know I'll have to use a diff that matches to the 6 spd box, I was hoping that I could use the URS4 diff although I have no idea if / how it will mount to my existing rear subframe......either that or a 6 spd S2 diff......?

I've got;
S2 Coupe - Hubs
S2 coupe - Driveshafts
S2 coupe - Diff (6 spd)
S2 coupe - 6 spd Propshaft

034 motorsport uprated linkage

Set of Porsche 996 Front Calipers


I just need;
Bambridge caliper brackets for the 996 calipers
Rear brakes....?
3" downpipe & exhaust
Wheels.....?

I'll let you know what other bits and bobs I need when I know I'm thinking once I get started things will start cropping up all over the place, maybe I'm being too pessimistic but seems like it's never straight forward with these things

[GazzaG60]

The subframe is the same as coupe so should bolt up into it. Not sure if the 16v one is compatible ratio wise. I need to check the code
I got a full set of aby alloys for sale if you need them. Also got rear aby brakes o don't expect to use

[quattrostyle]

No you can't use an UrS4 rear diff. S2 coupe will fit.

[lcsmith]

Haha what a dumb-@ss I've just checked and forgot I bought an S2 coupe diff....

As for rear brakes I read about an S2 upgrade which involved using A4 calipers.....? I'll have to read up about it again and see what I need to get.....

[GazzaG60]

Im using the a8 disc kit turned down to 280 on the back. 6 pot on the front

Was wondering if you have a contact number for gsf ?? I need a AAN head gasket set myself - the part number of the set would be great too if you had it handy...

Cheers
