wiring in oil and voltage gauges?
grant.79 replied to sedge's topic in I.C.E, Security an Electrical
i know it was a while back now but how did you get on with those gauges sedge ? im looking at a second hand audi set on ebay - oil temp, oil press and volts complete with senders did you get them fitted how much of a ball ache was it ?!! thanks -
just to add, not just audi fitment vw too 17'' monza's from a gti or santa monica's from the mk4 v5 ? anybody know anywhere selling good replica alloys ?!
-
tyres i'll run are 205/40's standard sort of size for 17's .......... 7.5j is the norm for aftermarket but im wondering if i can find 7j maybe ?!! if i look for audi standard fitment say s3/tt or similar they're normaly 7j right ?
-
im looking at fitting 17 inch alloys to the vr6, and dropping her by about 30mm without the arches rolled will they catch front or rear ? anyone done this without the rolled arches ?! also she is 1996 so i cant hide any work behind the plastic arch extensions !!
-
thanks for that vr6pete, so even though its st/st you still wrapped it, how well does the wrapping keep the temps down ?! did you find decent bhp gains ? noise increase at all though im not after more noise just asking ?!
-
thanks frot the info, your right, ill just save for the better ones not sure if coilovers are even the best for me, maybe just a matched set of non adj. shocks and springs - koni maybe ? and a strut brace front and rear front for sure the v6 nose is wayward !!

no1uktuning (ebay) - selling coilover units at 160 quid for a set of 4, has anyone tried these at all how are they ? quality ? fit ? ride ........ i know the ''you get what you pay for'' line is bible but is it TOO good to be true ?!!

hi there, i am looking at a st/steel manifold from no1uktuning (ebay) but have read on here that the bolt holes can be out, i am an engineer by trade so enlarging/filing the holes slightly is not a problem AND im fully aware of the ''you get what you pay'' line at 160 quid is this TOO good to be true ? any answers/thoughts opinions possible tried and tested news greatly appreciated thanks !!
