You just screwed yourself big time

 

 

Yep you're correct. I stripped the power steering pulley center bolt so I am welding on an allen socket tomorrow morning and its coming off for sure.

 

Bought moar parts: ecs tuning lightweight pulley kit to make up for the lightweight flywheel, samco sport red boost hose kit. And of course I need more bolts haha. This project it taking way longer than expected.

I'll have more progress this week, my timing belt, water pump, pulley kit, clutch and flywheel, rear main seal is all going on tomorrow.

That flat black looks good.

 

My motor is out too, also have a bunch of bolts, hoses and gaskets that I'm replacing. Found out why my turbo sounded different...something tore up the compressor wheel :( Ran really good though on basically just one turbo.

 

FYI there are updated bolts from audi for the bell housing, not quite sure what the benefit is, i guess they have a different head. I need to replace mine anyway since someone stripped them out.

Okay: Clutch and flywheel came in finally along with all my bolts, hoses, and gaskets I needed. The car should be running this up coming weekend.

 

Tonight I re-gasketed the oil pans, installed the rear main, slapped on the turbos. Timing will be set at school since I gotta re do it from manufacturer spec. I just got a few quick shots 3 nights ago.

Hey Joe or anyone else who might be interested, I am selling my K03/K04 hybrids for $300. They will need rebuilt and the driver's side turbo needs to get a new compressor wheel, something got in there and ate it up a bit. Let me know if you are interested.

motor is completely back together just waiting on the turbos then she will run again

 

Hell yeah. You going to post a video of it running once its back together?

 

thanks guys... another delay... someone stole my turbos from my friends pt cruiser last night so I had to buy a set of used k03s with 20k on them :(

... Thats some bullshit. Time for some street justice.

yep videos will be up. Im getting it running just in time for Wustfest the big german car meet in Vegas in June.

 

We found the thieves that stole the turbos, it happened to be the douche that owns the PT cruiser left his car unlocked for his buddy to steal our stuff. Hes getting his ass beat and taken to the desert.
