Always enjoy catching with your progress. Blows me away with just how far you've come with the car. So no, they aren't boring updates...

Hope you're feeling better? Look forward to seeing the next couple of weeks progress

Nice to hear thats its not boring updates.

Hopefully i can keep my schedule to get it running before sunday.. But time will tell.

feeling better now so thats good. just quite much other things that needs my attention right now so the car havent been worked with as much as i would like.. :/

Will do a small update now with pics.

Cheers

heres a small update

Boot floor completly welded now from both inside and outside so it is stable and strong.

heres after Zinc, Primer, body sealant, and then Body spray and lastly Corrosion shield or whats it called in English.

Also cutted an extra hole for the Fueltank heres a pic before priming etc..

Then we pressed in the 2 missing bolts with a bolt machine so now the Fueltank is completly on with both straps.

Then we Bolted upp the rear Subframe to chassie. Now with the right alloy subframe, and it fitted.

Also HR Rear Antirool bar mounted..

So now its time to start reading some pages from ELSAWIN.

But in the middle of that i recived this..

Will weld Exhaust temp flange and a flange to the wideband Lambda then Manifold, Turbo and Downpipe is of to Ceramic Coating.


K04 VS GTX Little difference in size..

Also Rear Exhaust is done, And a New JE-Design rear Muffler is on order.

Hope you like how it turns out

Cheers

Got away a couple of hours yesterday so got little done, nut much but better than nothing.

On the Way there i collected some oils to Engine Gearbox Rear Diff and Haldex also to the coling system.

Redline Extreme Street Performance 15w 50
Redline Heavy Shockproof gear oil
Rear diff Oil
Haldex Oil + Haldex Filter
Redline WaterWetter

Mounted the rear Dustshields, before i ran without them but looks better with them on so got a rear set..

Also i was annoyed of the looks in the wheel housings so cleaned everything of and painted with black Body.. Looks way better but it was a hell to get it clean before...

Test mounted the Rear part of Proopshaft.

Also tested if the rear Exhaust part would fit, And it seems like it fits pretty good.

Now its time to sort out wich bolt etc goes to where?? xD

Left to do.
Ceramic Coat this parts: Manifold, exhaust side of Turbo, And Downpipe
Weld a bracket to Propshaft center bearing
Connect the electronics of the USP Motorsport AUX fuelpump controoler
Mount Turbo kit
Mount Gearbox etc
And also do all the conections to Haldex to Car..

And prbably little more. xD

If i just can find time it will be running by the end of this weekend. Or latest beggining of next week.

Really hope i will haver time. Want to have it done by now..

On my car.

 

[mYGeL]

well had a couple of hours yesterday with the car

That means i got atleast a few picture to update with


Leaving parts today to CTBC= Ceramic Thermal Barrier Coating
Will have them Back tommorow afternon.

Prepared under the car so we can weld the propshaft center bearing support.

As everything else is dissmounted i figured i might as well check under the oilpan if everything looks ok..

Cleaned the oilpan.

And as i already had it off i Drilled and made threads for Oil temp Sender

 

[Cupra R]

Mate, have you fitted the TOG Sensor into the oil pan?

I'm after some help in fitting one too. Hopefully, you maybe able to help me out.

Hello Mate,

how do you mean? TOG Sensor What is that?

 

[Cupra R]

Oil level/temperature sensor.

The shot above shows it in your sump.

ahh no it is oem mounted, I mounted that oilsump when we builded the engine a couple of months ago, Plan was that i could connect the Oiltemp to it..
I builded a engine and when ready we just swapped. and the GTI the engine came from had that one mounted.

but as im not sure it would work with my gauge, and already had the oilsump down so I mounted the temp sensor that came with the gauge i have..

I would not like to take it down again if it wouldn't work. and as all electric is of the car now i couldnt test it. so took the safer way and mounted the other in case it wouldnt..

sorry that i wasnt so much help. :/


But it cant be to hard to mount one.
drill a hole and drill and make threads for the bolts then mount it as it is oem with gasket and bolts..
i can se if theres any part number on it if that helps?


cheers

 

[Cupra R]

Ah. Thanks anyway mate.

I have ran the wiring, plugged in a TOG Sensor to test before fitting a sump with opening, but I can't seem to figure out the coding. I was hoping you may of done it.

Never mind. Keep up the great work. Please bring it to GTi International.

oki if you figure out how to do please let me know mate

Plan is to come to GTI and i want to come.
Just hope i can afford it. this last things ive done has costed way more than i planned and far over budget ...

 

[mYGeL]

Just was away and collected the bits i left to Coater yesterday for some CTBC
= Ceramic Thermal Barrier Coating

Also Recived some goddies from Marc @ Sorensenperformance in DK

A Stage 1 + Aluminium Manifold with Direct Port Injection for methanol.

I initially ordered the stage 2 with extra fuelrailbar on top. but i didnt want to wait no more as they are on backorder in USA so i took the stage1+ that was in stock only difference is the extra fuelrail. And i hope i can survive without that

Talked to the Coating firm guy about the intake and it will be combo Coated..
Intake will be Combo Coated..

Part towards Engine will be
THBC (Thermal Heat barrier coating)
+
Rest of Manifold body will be
Coated with TDC (Thermal Dispersant coating)
this gives 20-25% better heat transfer from the material.

Also there is a Polar FIS Advance+ Box for my new speedo so i can have live data from ECU in my FIS Display.

Tommorow is long day so probably will come a few pics again

Yeah. Will let you know.

Just do your best to get to GTi. If not, then maybe next year.

Great finish to the ceramic coating, looks awesome!!!

The inlet manifold looks massive!!!

 

[joehirth]

Little more pics.

Lets se how this turns upp when mounted and so... xD

Didn't realise how similar the 2.0TFSI looks to the 1.8 20VT.

Loving this thread though, awesome. Best of luck with getting it done.
