Audi A4 BAT - Quattro Project by Tom's Garage

[mgpdoc]

This had to go, it was bothering me





So off it went





Much better



My APIKOL Rear Diff Mount (Race Version - RED) was then removed.
Can you tell it is used ? Cause I surely cant. Came out NEW.
Awesome product, makes a great difference, and already put it up for sale in case anyone is interested in it, fits most Audi models around here.

ebay listing link : http://www.ebay.com/itm/301075364825...84.m1555.l2649





I also put this for sale

And very soon I will list the STERN engine mounts as well.

As for some other news, the new Diff with Carbon LSD will arrive propably next week, and the hydraulic handbrake is finally on its way to me after quite some time now. The engine cannot be put in place yet, as Tom wants to see where the diff will sit first.

Cheers

I got some orders that arrived yesterday at the dealership, propably being done in kevlar too I think sometime soon





More are on their way from Germany



Got sidetracked retrofitting an RNS510 on my DaiLy Beater









Really Good stuff

However I think that there might be an interesting update to show you. It might involve a new Carbon Limited Slip Diff . . . . Stay tuned

Cheers

is the 2jz getting built up? big single turbo? maybe stroked?

Each thing at its time. Now is the time for fabrication work. Not engine build

This is nuts, the title should be audi a4 bat shit crazy

Thank you sir.

So the pile of the new fuel parts is growing up even more



Got yet another one, 044 pump, again, brand new to install when time comes, didnt want to use one new one used, i am sick, I know, but oh well, that's just me



They will make a great team



And also got this one



-12AN holes for the two -10AN lines to be combined in one, on their way to the engine



I love its colour



And also ordered this and some more.



More to come guys, stay tuned

Cheers

Got me some more parts then.



Second Aeromotive Fuel Filter



Aeromotive Replacement Filter for my other Filter housing



Because it was not that clean after its current mileage



And a second "044" Bosch Pump



I think two of those, one out of each side of the Fuel Tank, will do




Then, I did yet MORE work in the trunk area



I said that tonight was the night - And it was



Bye Bye Wheel Well.



Well Worth the Effort





The bent part in the middle will also say goodbye to the car, no need for it to be there when the cage comes in



Any guesses to the weight of the wheel-well and the holes i had to drill for the spot-welds ? Hehe

Stay tuned for more.

Cheers

Tom sounds like a very knowledgeable man lol

Great job man

[mgpdoc]

Got some more supplies then . . .













Removed pump- gonna clean it and propably buy a second one - - hehe yes, it will be needed.



Fuel Filter Removed too - also a second one will be needed i guess



At the back I am doing a lot of work which is yet to be completed





Removed the diff cover and Tom did some measurements





Lots of work ahead



Cheers, more to come

[Tuck&Poke]

Holy crap, I can't wait to see more.

[mgpdoc]

Had some really good progress with the Wheel Well, but decided to stop here





Removed this STERN transmission mount, which will propably go for sale with the whole STERN engine mount kit









Reason for the removal was to do something a bit more interesting.

Tom asked me to stop drilling and cutting and go help him . . . hehe



Time to meet each other for good



Gear shifter removed



Lets go inside





Water pipe needs to be removed





Me Likey







Let's throw the head on



I think this is what one can call WiN.



Engine will go further back



Once some more metal is removed



Exhaust side for now



I knew I had picked the right Oil pan for my car



Steering rack is going nowhere it seems . . .



2JZ temporarily in place for some nights



Parked in place



Best food table of the night



Cheers, more to come

Hello everyone and Happy New Year.

Had some news for you, but didnt have the time due to work to upload the progress

So . . . first things first . . .

Started with this



Removed this





Leaving me with this



Where some serious work will take place. Can you guess what it is about ?
More on that on the next update.

Meanwhile . . . I think I might have ordered something new . . . something not cheap . . . something like . . . this . . .



Picture is just for reference, I am talking about a brand new part, straight from Toyota Dealership.

I guess Santa will come full handed, wont he . . .

More to come . . . Cheers . . .
