20v turbo replied to 20v turbo's topic in General Car Chat
i started off by buzzing the car with 240grit to get any loose or damaged paint of then a quick go over with some 320grit,ech primer then two coats of white primer which is suitable as the base coat,now i'm going to flat it all down and then the colour and laqeur.the gun i'm useing is a devilbliss gti with a 3M paint system on it,its a bit more expencive but you can paint with the gun in any angle upside down everything it makes the job alot easyer 8) -

eibach only doone spring and thats for the hole range including the VR6 so it stands to reason that the 4 cylinder cars wont sit right,i had mine on for three weeks and took them off because i couldnt get the car to sit level,according to eibach its because i've got the 20vt in (b+ll+cks),now running H&R now and they sit bang on level 8)

just coming up the slip road tonight on to the m62 doing about 60mph with a farrari in tow when all of a sudden he lets rib and blows my doors clean off and givin me that come on have a go look as he passed,im like yeh i dont stand a chance,anyway as the title of this thread says corrado relieabilaty its a brilliant thing when it works cos as i pulled of at the next slip road there he was with bonnet up and steam pouring out :lol: i gave a quick blast on the horn and a wave as i passed him and in return he stuck his two fingers up :D . so when reading the other threads on her about relieabilaty its times like this that it counts :D

well this is the colour she's chosen,just sprayed a door up so she could get more of a picture of what it will look like,not bad better than i though 8) -
In that case, perhaps you can explain how to design a 1.8 turbo charged engine that has a very low boost threshold, low lag and a flat torque curve with 80% of peak delivered by 2000RPM. One that can pass EU4 emissions and is durable enough to pass Audi's sign off criteria, namely 180 hours continuous at WOT, peak power RPM, a minimum of 3 times without failure. Then add a basic head & port design good enough to to be used in a N/A version of the same engine allowing it to flow ~74% of the capacity of the 2.9VR6 from ~62% of the displacement. On the contrary, there's a lot that's clever about the VAG 1.8T engine.[/quote:d4a8e] :D :D

i agree with the fact that 1.8t has no character,when you listen to a vr6 you know straight away what it is and you know its going to shif listen to mine and until it dumps the charge air it well could be a n/a 1600,the g60 is a tottaly different sound but again very distinctive especially hennys with that toothed belt f++king sounds great 8) but as for the 1.8t being no fun to drive well i think its more fun than my g60 was apart from the wheel spin :x and as for modding its far cheaper to obtain 280 300bhp than with a vr6 just my opinion
-
good luck m8 hope its what your looking for 8)
-
, does this mean you dont any more :D
-
PhatVR6, but do you think this is because youve got the extra wieght of the vr6 over the front wheels cos in mine i get loads of wheel spin and in the rain its a f++king joke
