new toys.....rose jointed, cnc machined alloy goodness.

[jcb]

finally received the answer to my poxy plastic C links.
they need some plastic washers to cover the rose joints and protect them from the crap but they are very well made. will update once fitted.

 

[Broken Byzan]

WOAH ! Those are worth more than my car.

Ed they look the b*ll*cks mate.
You coming to audis in the park to show them off?

 

[jcb]

hope so, depends on other people as usual.
might just put them on the dashboard they look too nice to go near the road!

 

[Lee Goodall]

Very serious bit of kit!

 

[Drizz]

Sorry what are these for?

 

[Lee Goodall]

They link to the ARB.

Jcb, the latest batch of B5 1,8T 240mm flywheels have turned up, so yours is being shipped out tomorrow.

More shiny bits to add to your ever growing pile!

 

[Drizz]

One of Tobys?

 

[jcb]

need to start actually putting them on the car before I run out of space!!

 

[ian52]

what you doing with the k03-s when it comes off?

 

[jcb]

selling it sharpish to pay for the rest of the toys.
along with the 1.8t engine

buying?

 

[ian52]

depends on the price. just want my car to have a k03-s like it should but not sure if it would be worthwhile. its been chipped but the ecu was chipped for the previous car that had a k03-s like its meant to.

 

[jcb]

i suppose it depends on its condition when it comes off, TBH the speed at which my project is moving you could make one from scratch!!
I hope to have my clutch next week, engine build completed by end of august,
by the time i get all the bits on and ready to go it could be sept/October, if you can wait you can have first refusal

will let you know

 

[ian52]

im in no rush.the k03 works fine i would just prefer it if the proper turbo was on. if i get some money in the future i would like to put a t28 on but not sure if i could be bothered.i reckon the k03-s would give me about an extra 20bhp or so. the last car the ecu was in made 311bhp i think and k03's make about 190 with a remap i think.

 

[Broken Byzan]

If your ECu was from Docurley, then the turbo he ran with that was a 12 fin K03. I had it here for a while. It still pruduced good power and it was pretty worn tbh

 

[ian52]

thats the one. it would be good if mine makes the same sort of power.

 

[docurley]

Well I have the K03s from my 190bhp B6 which is the largest K03 that was made for our cars which I might sell (was keeping it as a spare) it's in great condition with no shaft play at all.

 

[jcb]

"shaft play "

fnarr fnarr!
sorry been drinking couldn't help it
