so another one that wants to go the fun route ;)

the trick to get the sensor i used on mine was a deep 12 side socket.

i can't remember the actual size but it fit perfect over the plug and couple of turns it freeded up nicely.

mrc tuning they performance tuners for audi vw porsceh bentely etc

where i got my car mapped. They are building a extra wide s4 and splitting it off its original parts.

if i remember correctly the firs s3 was 5x100 so means sadly you can not fit it to our cars.

but that design did come in a s4 17" is the b5 a4 and 18" in the B6 a4 format.

mrc are breakign a s4 with those wheels in 17" drop them a call

ok then shouldnt be a problem changing it

get an original one not gsf/eurocarparts one

ok well ive run those sizes on mine without any problems at all

the only difference i see is the width that had nothing to do with the diameter.

both are 35 profile and 19" rims.

also the passat is quattro system out of a audi not syncro like the earlier golfs.

Hello

the sensor is at the back of the engine driver side.

easy to get to. but what is the problems you have?

Bod thanx for pointing me this way

so yossarian are you the original owner of the car? i heard the original owner did all the work then bought a W8

alex

well there is a guy on audisrs that managed to get hold of a A6 2.7t not bad price to talk him to see if he is willing to sell everything you need

cheaper than what I bought my engine for

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/AUDI-2-7-V6-RS4-A ... 3a57722881" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

but not bad price for 80k engine

uh you dont have that guy contact details? he was up in norfolk i think? also the electric part not to bad. for the movement its just a feed and negative if I want the memory part just have to buy the loom or see if they can get it out of the car for me. the mounts is the part i would have to think ...

uh that looks nice but not my thing for the passat. i was talkign abotu these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180456108869&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; http://images.a8parts.co.uk/parts/2377.jpg they look very nice and...

ok VW and AUdi gearbox are the same. Ratios differ from engine to engine Audi exccept of S, RS and sports they all had 5 speed gearbox in the quattro/syncro/4 motion set up just like the passat. I am lead to believe later passats b5.5 went to 6 speed seom especially the TDi ones. If that is true I h...

thanx mate

i lost the contact fo rthe guy selling the W8 recaro interior and started to think about it.

anyhow if anyone hears of a W8 recaro interior going let me know

hello all

has anyone ever fitted A8 front recaro to our cars?

well i think i need new gearbox mounts lol ;)

well ive got the handbrake slides perfect

still might go out to see if I can get donuts down perfectly as got the sliding well

well if you think you guys with 4x4 having fun imagine how much fun i am having with the extra 250bhp over standard ;) off road off course lol

I dont think i can go back to a fwd or rwd seeing them all struggle and me just go round them is just great

as adam mentioned

another trick is to unplug the maf start it and drive it and if it still stalls tends to mean you dont have a leak on the intake side.

as mentioned you need to convert your car to ali uprights most audi vws have them after 2001. I have A6 quattro ones of a 2002 model on mine.

once you have them you can put porsche cayenne, q7, touareg 6 pots, rs4 rs6 8 pots, rs4 2 pots or s4 on theres without a problem

dump vale you can run on ours. They need to be recir/diverter valves ones i.e. the dumped air is returned into the intake pipe.

the bes tone is the one from teh new 2L fsi engines i.e. in tt and s3 with part number ending 710N. They are cheap as well from vw about

now i do like this collection

the plan is to get either a v6 tdi audi or bmw 2.5 or 3L tdi for me and have a play with it just nee dthe passat gone

but you are right a nice B6 A4 tdi woudl be great

I would say MRC.

out of 23 cars that run on saturdays at surrey rolling road 18 where mapped by them

guys thank for all the kind words

dont get me wrong it is very nice to have 450;) def can suprise a few out there

well more over the laptop but MRC is looking to do it over a switch

mate avoid tarox at all cost

i had them on mine and had brake failure. never again!!! they are just for show.

also why dont you put wider tyres on as you def have no problems runnign low ;)

very nice mate
