Bought the schwaben kit from ECS, when you get ready to do your timing let me know.

Anyone have a set of the tools to do the timing service on a b6/7 S4? Willing to buy/rent them.

Let me know

Always search the forums before buying from another user. There are a few known shady/lazy people on motorgeek.

The thing I hate most about this car is how high it sets the bar for my eventual 4kqt :p


But seriously, I love this car.

With a catch can I used the maf boot and intake manifold as vac source. Intake manifold line gets a check valve to stop boost from pressurizing the can and the maf line gets the pressure regulating valve. If you ...

I should have intact flaps as I went to the RS2 fan/shroud. Shoot me a PM if you want me to check storage.

Looking for a set of uncracked b2 speaker bezels for the new dash in the URQ.

*edit* realized I didnt say, looking for a brown set.

Did you check the distributor itself? If it isnt spinning freely it is going to pass that force to the gear and that could cause problems.

Thanks Aaron, used your coilover DIY thread for most of the information I have now.


Talked to ground control and they have barrel springs but the lowest spring rate they have in 8" is 340# so I think thats what I am going to end up with. Ill probably grab a couple helper springs just to keep the ...

I have a mc1 20vt from my URQ(and ecu), I went through the engine a year or two before I replaced it with the AAN that is currently in the car.

Has a new headgasket, intake manifold gasket, valve cover gasket, ect. Also has one of the last 034 20vt cams they made. Also have a rebuilt k26 turbo ...

Awesome, I didnt specifically see barrel springs listed on their website but I sent an email and we will see what they say.

Had one of the front lower spring perches let go in the s6, planning on going the a1 coilover route but not because I want to go low. I have read through the DIY threads here and on MG and see that most people are saying to go with a 6" spring, would you still go with a 6" spring for a daily driver ...

I'm going through build threads and I have some questions about what people have done:

Why do some people swap to a non-serpentine belt?

Why Do I need a 7a oil pan and pickup?
Why the Windage tray from AAN and double gaskets?

Why a 3B water manifold?
Will I need a 7a thermostat housing?

Will ...

Might be a silly question but is it just corrosion?

From what Ive read(and I may be 100% wrong) ethanol corrodes aluminum, not bad enough that it is going to eat through a tank or fuel rail but a small amount of surface corrosion is possible.

Aluminum fuel rail?

I went a little unconventional with the powersteering pump, if you are not reinstalling A/C you can mount it off of the bosses for the compressor. I used a piece of angle iron and made a little bracket that bolts up to the 2 lower bosses. I was questioning whether it was ok to mount the tensioner to ...

Ill keep an eye on your page, Ive already read through all of it

Dave wrote:you could use the stock b4 g60s, or you can use any of the upgrades that the small chassis guys use. I'm using 996 calipers with a8 rotors.

I already have boxster S calipers and Apikol adapters on the car and I don't want to have new adapters made if the hub offset is a little different.

Thanks for the info guys, I guess my last question to answer is if the stock carriers/calipers and rotors fit on the b3/b4 uprights.

Statefarm sucks honestly. I have them as well and they seem to be an absolute pain in the ass, the big difference is they are half the price of hagerty.

When I went to Statefarm I said I would like a $20,000 policy for the URQ and my agent said it shouldnt be a problem considering the work done to ...

I dont have a lot of notes on the harness but I dont think there is anything too tricky about it. The AAN wiring diagram and URQ wiring diagram is just about all you need to get the engine running in the car. From what I remember the only thing that needs to be connected to the chassis wiring is the ...

This is what I have on my S6, they have a pad that rests on the car's roof rack and a strap that goes under it and you just tighten down the strap. Works fine.

Also just want to say thanks to everyone that has helped me over the years, would have never gotten to this point if it werent for you guys.

So its been a long time since I have updated this, car has been together for a few years now. Engine has 10-15k on it and is running strong, ran into a few minor problems but overall the car has been good to me.

My rear swaybar setup ripped the tierod mounts off the subframe so I rewelded and ...

I was figuring that they were all different but I am hoping maybe someone has a BTDT and knows of gauges that work with stock senders. Realistically I have the old VDO oil temp gauge that was in the car that works with the stock sender but the oil pressure I think I am going to get a VDO pressure ...
