I've enjoyed seeing pics of everyones cars and buildups. Few people wanted me to post some pics of the work in progress and I finally found my digital camera, so here are a few pics:

QUOTE(75boxster @ Sep 28 2004, 07:14 AM) You are probably right about the SKS car. I have emailed him a couple of times about questions on how he handled certain technical problems. Although the car is very heavily modified the mounting points for the motor and A6 tranny he used were the stock mounting points. I believe he used a Tilton pedal cluster for the brakes and hydraulics that the Audi tranny required. I had a 98 Passat with the 1.8t and the APR stage III kit on it. The car was very strong and probably weighed 1,000lbs. more than the 914 soooo...... Have fun with your conversion (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Yup, I also had a APR SIII on my passat few years ago...but now have moved to bigger setup, lot more fun than SIII. APR has a SIII+ kit in the works using a GT28RS instead of the GT28R (SIII). The turbo i'm using for the 914 is a GT28-71R, it's the next turbo up from the GT28RS. I'm using the stock 914 pedal cluster (again, my budget is not so high for this project). I just took the master clutch cyl. from the a4 and mounted it behind the clutch pedal of the 914. Although, I need to re-install it for better operation. So when the cluch is depressed the master clutch cyl get depressed. I do need to add a spring or something to help push the pedal back forward after I let go. I kept the stock 914 brake system (except for 911 SC front suspension+brakes). I also kept the electrical system (lights, turn signals, etc.) untouched. |
