so how long untill the diff apears then Willie?

Well, i have a mate that might be getting one too but by the end of this week coming i'll have my order in.
I picked up an 02M spare gear box yesterday with 24,000 miles on it. I also got the above OEM diff fitting bolts today. So just need to find out shipping prices for sending the lot down to Stealth Racing and i'll be good to go. Hopefully before Christmas i'll have the lot down at Stealth and New Year time have it back in Scotland and fitted to my car:) Happy New Year to me

Not everyone hjas the babees like you,

I can see you going power mad now the drive train and handelling mods are complete.
Babees are now into borrowed ones TBH. But with 0% CC one the go it's makes it a good way of getting by till the bank balance is a bit better
Your 100% correct, especially as the handling and traction is going to be very good, all I'll need now is power to make the most of it

I have 2 piece 330mm front rotors with light weight alloy bells
There 6.3Kgs made up with bolts compared to 9.5Kgs for the 1 piece ones
Was going for polycarbonate windows this winter but have other things on my mind now;)


Wilwoods are the way forward for lightweight brakes if your looking for some Willie.

I've got Facebook now so do most of my chatting through there.
Gies an email or PM if your wanting a news and I'll jump onto MSN

Expensive day

Well today has been a pretty expensive day.
Initially I bought 4 winter tyres for the Audi

235-40-18 95W XL TL Vredstein Wintrac Extreme

which were £155 each fitted.
Not too bad a price from my local place I used, not much more expensive than Camskill and mytyres

AND!!!!

An 02M Autotec Wavetrac 2WD ATB Differential....WOO HOO

So I picked up a 24,000 miles 6 speed 02M gear box at a very good price, got the VAG fitting kit from David (Sere Motors) and the differential from PSI Tuning.

This is all being sent down to Vince at Stealth Racing for him to work his magic.

If there isn't any issues when he cracks open the box the whole lot should cost

£1,500 plus shipping either way.
Not cheap but once its done its done.

I was thinking about selling my box that I have on just now but as the clutch housing is damaged I'll keep it and the rest for spares.
