I guess it's time to introduce myself overhere... :)

- Completely Powerflexed rear suspension.

- Bilstein front shocks (maybe change it to Koni)

- Koni rear shocks

- 305 Brembo on 24V hubs

- Rebuild gearbox (@ my own workbench)

- New clutch assembly fitted

To do:

- Fitting my Eibach springs

- Finishing Brakelines

- Installing GT28R !!!

- Creating 70mm exhaust system

- Installing FMIC

- Get it running again!

Other things:

- Finishing beige Leather interior

Maybe comming winter somethings are going to happen again on my 916TB... Who knows...... :D

Hi Carlo, looks like your workshop is in a tent? If so I can imagine the in the fridge statement...I wouldn't like to work on my car at temps below 10 degree C.

Super slow reply @ PHRI: It's definately not a tent, haha. Its a 2x 65m2 business unit with big overhead door and central heating with two car lifts installed. So tempertures below 10degrees C (or -10) are no problem. :thumbsup:

 

Some progress made:

- Turbo Y-piece and a little piece of the engine block altered to make room for the bigger turbo

- Connection pipes from front and rear header altered to new position / orientation from Y-piece. Even achieved a bit more clearance to avoid unwanted contact to the tarmac...

- The 70mm downpipe is finshed to the drive shaft area. The rest including theflex pipe is spotwelded in position. Now I need to order the 5" (!) race kat. to complete the downpipe / kat. Even the 70mm downpipe has a bit less chance to hit the tarmac...

- Made an adapter to connect the 70mm downpipe to the Original 60mm exhaust system (later on I will make this in 70mm too splitting at the rear axle in 2x 55mm)

 

So exhaust department is quite sorted out.. But still lots to finish off course.. :D

 

Next is the intercooler piping which will be in 55mm stainless & silicone. Front intercooler positioning is already done. Now find & make room for the 55mm pipe from the compressor outlet to the intercooler which has to share the space with the airco pipes from the airco compressor.
