The rise of a Lady - or - The first Audi A2 build thread on s|w

[Nagah]

Call me a slack but the most recent updates can be found on my instagram @leereiyuu
Or - if you are capable of reading German - on the German A2 Forum (unfortunately you need to be registered to open the thread)

...yeaaaah, I will really try to get this thread up to date. I was not really motivated to do so, since I had the impression that almost no one is interested in little Audi A2.

[jahilton2002]

do you have a more upto date build thread, myself and others would be grateful!

[Nagah]

Thanks for the reply! You were very kind.

Always happy to aid a fellow petrolhead.

[Nagah]

Thank you!

Never thought I would find one of these on here! Potential in EVERYTHING!

I got the speedometer dials from here: https://k-tec-carconcepts.de
For the hanging pointers you just have to put them on in the 6 o clock position, no further changes are needed.
Cupholder and tray were genuine from the Audi dealer.

Thanks for the reply! You were very kind.

Yes, I am still rocking it.
Actually I swapped the good ol trusty diesel engine to a way more strong and almighty 1.8T petrol turbo engine.
There is quite a lot of things to get up to but I dont have the time at the moment to recap everything here.
Will do that later.

I knew that someone would discover the potential of Audi a2. You have succeeded fully.
R U still driving it? Any recent photo's?

Hi...your car is very nice! I've already take this car.
Can I ask you where you have bought the Audi-S5-Style-speedometer (with hanging pointers! ), cupholder in the back and a tray below tha handbrake lever?
Thank you so much.

You only need to swap out the both rear handbrake cables. You can keep the lever and the first cable.

Next step accomplished. Rear brake drums are out and brake discs are in. In order to do so we needed to swap the whole rear axle.

It is basically possible to swap just the mountings but this would have lowered the with of the axle for a centimeter (0.4 inches) on each side causing my winter wheels to not fit anymore. This would suck.

Thats why the swap.

So now we have the rear axle from the 90hp diesel in it which came with rear discs from factory. Since I needed massive help from a friend with that I was again not able to take pictures of the process because I tried to help as much as possible which does not include lazily taking pictures.

Sorry!


So here the result, I am pretty happy with that.

For mounting the rear axle 90hp, what changes did you have to make?

[speed.triple955]

Hey guyze, some tweaking happened in october!

Second: Then after that some luxury on the inside: Steering wheel with new leather, Audi-S5-Style-speedometer (with hanging pointers! ), cupholder in the back and a tray below tha handbrake lever.

Thank you. Very little response in here but that is okay. It IS a strange car and never got a lot love by the crowds.
