Carefull with those protruding bolt heads in your tranny bellhousing. They _may_ just hit the flywheel ring gear...

this week i made several purchases that i probably shouldnt have as i'm fairly skint at the moment lol! my CSP wings turned up along with my order from pelican parts so i can now build up my rear arms. i also won a pair of 2.0l cylinder heads on ebay very cheap, and some 96mm barrells and pistons.

also this week i changed the door pins on my passenger door, prepped both doors and rear valance and got a coat of reface on them so im pretty pleased

Oeps, must have read over that part...
Well, better safe than sorry

ive dont a bit more on my bug - but mostly filler work which is dull as fcuk! and messy....but gota be done....especially as i want to to be as stright as an arrow!

both doors and rear valance are now in reface







and the passenger door has new door pins

i noticed my origional door has an audi logo on it - shows how late it is :lol:

decklid received the swiss cheese treatment also and is now ready for reface





quick pic of the barrles and pistons....anyone have experience of the aa stuff? is it any good?



also turned out the 2 litre heads i won on ebay were 1.8 heads.....which is nice!
