Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Converting to manual steering

The intercooler is gonna be in the front bumper replacing the air con rad and radiator ( get a thicker intercooler that way ) as for the exhaust ill probably run it parallel to the pipe going to the turbo back down to the rear. Not to sure yet ;-)

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Converting to manual steering

A little fabrication I don't mind, just want something that's almost the same in dimensions as the original.

I'm running a GT4088 turbo with front mount intercooler which is why the exhaust pipe are there ;-)

Re: V8 Mk1 6 speed with power steering

This looks amazing! If my Mk1 hadn't have given in to the rust gods then this might have been on the cards!

I got myself the tvr box, can't afford the r8 gear lol just a tad on the expensive side lol

Glad to see this coming along! Car is gonna be immense!

Mines just started back up again! Put the crankshaft in and managed to get one piston back in last night! Only 11 to go! Only a set of head bolts are needed to complete the engine rebuild!

[Mk2] [Turbo] K36 UNL V12

The final bill plus VAT ( bloody VAT! ) is £1451.40 for the 2 cylinder heads to be made new again. After doing some research on the m70 BMW engine i...

Re: [Mk2] [NA] The V12 Mk2 thread

When you say flexplate I guess you mean flywheel? Lol German gear is normally over engineered and underrated so hopefully it should handle a fair bit, guess we will find out soon enough lol I blame you for all this! If I hadn't seen the V12 thread I'd probably still have my lovely mk2 intacked and p...
