I have updated the pictures,with some pictures taken last weekend on the circuitday.

muffler cutting
 

Did you modify the boxter muffler? It looks like you cut the muffler itself, did you remove the baffles. I installed the same muffler on my 2.0L. on a Transporter, I am asking because of exhaust restriction and if the muffler is hindering performance at all.

ride
 

Hello, i have shortened the exhaust on each side for 10 cm. I don't have made changes to the inside of the Muffler.

Very nice Picts & 1303rs Dirk ;)

Awesome ride Dirk. Love that 1303, for some reson I was never a fan of Supers until I saw yours. I imediately fell in love with it. Got to get me one now.

BTW,

Where did you get your bumber brackets from?

I would also love to see some interior pictures as well.


Ed

The bumber brackets are from Aluminium and i have bought them in Germany. I will take some pics from the interior..

Could you tell me who you got them from?

Thanks Dirk

@volky68 ; i don't know the manufacturer, because i have bought them on 1 Mai in Hannover on the swap meet.

No problem, I could probably get them made here in the US.

Great bug. might be a dream.
Where did you get that rear view mirrors?

thanks..

the mirrors aren "Vitaloni"

Very nice car indeed. A lot of detailed work.

thanks. On this moment i am working on the new engine ;-),and the coil over suspension on the rear

Dirk,

Nice set up.. was curious if you can share some info on those..

The struts look like bilstiens, single adjustable..

It seems that they have poly bushings with spacer for the top and bottom made of alum.

What is the combined weight of the springs.. Both lower and helper.. would be curious to see what rememelle feels is a good spring K-value for their cars..so that an equivalent torsion bar and helper spring can be determined.

Thanks and congrats, wish I had the money..
Alex
