6 Speed S4

So I blew a turbo on my DD and it needs a timing belt/water pump. I figured I might as well do everything on this motor and make it run for a while. Heres whats getting done: -crank seal -timing belt kit with pullys -rebuild the k03s for now until I can afford some k06s -thermostat and gasket -beefy stainless oil return lines -valve cover gaskets -serp belt -rear main seal and gasket and then what ever else is needed along the way... Heres some pics before and the start of the process: http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/2837/picture006f.jpg http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/8772/picture010e.jpg After pulling the front end: http://img245.imageshack.us/img245/5589/picture011u.jpg http://img522.imageshack.us/img522/5628/picture012zhu.jpg http://img522.imageshack.us/img522/8476/picture013w.jpg I'll keep updating as the process happens.

It is nice, just from October-March. Then it gets hot.

FMIF? Front mount inter-fucker???

haha nice. Atleast you got something back out of it.

I like snap on tq wrenches and craftsman. Haven't had an issue with either.

welcome, I got some friends at school here in Phoenix from El Paso, i just cant stand the heat in the summer here in the SW.

welcome to the board!

I like my hidden forge SMICs

I always read about cars when I was young. When I turned 15 1/2 I bought my celica and did basic stuff on that by myself, then bought an Audi and a DSM and started working on those a lot. I did research online for a while then when I graduated high school I went to CSCC for their auto program but I wasn't getting much out of it. Now I'm at UTI phoenix doing what I love doing. I'm going through the Volkswagen program soon too.

Im sorry to hear Tim. Just hope for the best.

heh all us S4 owners gotta be cheap sometime! Mines on back order I think still too!

haha thats a good one!

+1 on this. I have yet to own an automatic car.

Nice job! I had to use a friend to install those few bolts like you said when I installed one in a buddys GTI for him a few months back.

RX-8 = FAIL.

I'm a little over halfway done with my associates degree in automotive technology from UTI Phoenix. After that I am taking Ford FACT electronics training program at the same campus. By February next year I'll be in Exton, PA at the Volkswagon training program for 4 months. I have a job lined up with one of the Columbus area VW dealerships and I'll be a master tech in a few years. Right now I work at brake masters in Phoenix while I'm in school.

damn vws and audis haha. I just dumped $580 today on timing belt/water pump kit, serp belt, t-stat and gasket, and front rotors.

I wish I had some cash and I was in columbus

basically... haha

hahaha damn....

yep, but they actually are fairly strong motors, my buddy just did a twin turbo setup on a V6 accord motor with stock bottom end. I'm not a Honda fan by any means but I was actually impressed.

hmm the kid I know is 20 same age as me. I wasn't aware of another turbo nsx that was red in cbus, but I'm sure its possible.

That would be a kid named Sean, his dad passed away and he got a bunch of life insurance money. He can't drive worth a damn or at least he couldn't before I left Cbus.

Seven Pounds

lol you would Throne...
