lol i didn't know there was a bribe happening, that Pat is a standup dude!

Yeah that is steve, car bounces between colorado and Utah. He offered it to me a while back, its a good car but it was a wisconson car most of its life. It has a hole in the roof for the CB antenna and rust from what looks like a previous repair in the back, car wasn't for me.

i mean, pull out the engine, install the new one, use stock S2 wiring harnesses, stock S2 parts, its all pretty plug and play, not a lot of crazy work to do.

no project is ever really 'done' but i think i'll be working on this while the URQ is at paint. should be a quick easy swap...

my first s2 conversion took a long time, after that they have gotten faster and faster, it becomes second nature.

Picked up a new Project car, planning on doing a quick and easy 20vt conversion on it with some S2 parts sprinkled all around

Love the attention to detail! I'm impressed with the work thats been done!

Wuste is happening during that time, its a pretty big euro car show. its more of the 'scene' kids though.

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'm using the entire CQ running gear basically.

i'm using a v6 front subframe with 01e 6 Speed
B3 rear subframe
KW coilover uprights with CQ knuckles
Machined URS4 front hubs
B5 A4 rear hubs
CQ axles
CQ rear diff
URQ Driveshaft
CQ forged Control Arms

I'm putting S2/90 suspension in my URQ. I actually purchased KW coilovers last week. and i'm going to but using them along with the knuckles from a CQ. I will '5-lug' them using the same parts I do when I do it to 90s and coupes.

you will use the newer CQ ball joints with it. which is a sort of ...

You should have told me you were passing through, i would have bought you dinner!

Still in Bend?

The seats look great! When does the 07k get swapped in?

Alright I'll update the masses. I sort of took a small hiatus from cars and such after the Battleborn Event. I worked a lot of nights and weekends getting this car ready and neglected my family a bit, so I figured I'd take a couple weeks after the event and try to be a model citizen again.

the pan you have should have a part number on the outside of it... My understanding has always been that all small chassis cars need the 3b/7a style oil pan to clear the side mount radiator. Hell even the larger chassis c3 needed it with its side mount radiator.

Yeah i would have had you bring it to vegas, i would have snagged it there..

3b and 7a have the pan extention, to allow the same oil capacity but also clearing the radiator.

looks like you are using an AAN oilpan... why not the 3b? I thought even the URQ had interference problems with the AAN oilpan(to the radiator)...
