audi b3 coupe

[william]

hey george nice buy btw how did ya go with the reg??
why dont you try volkswagen hubs instead of audi more available than trying to locate s2 hubs and most of them are made by the same manufactures ate valeo bendix

got the window reg today!! will fit up tomorrow!!

maybe a option is to track down some CAB rims??? I emailed the guys that I bought the window reg from,no reply as yet.


jmac,,,did you say you are interested in the wheels that are on the car now???

[Jmac]

Yes George i sure am mate, i have 3 bucckled ones here. Just on the topic of parts do you know of any Manual 80,90 or coupes around breaking???? i am big time struggling to get an inboard cv joint for mines. Just had one sent from the uk and i was wrong ARGGGGGHHHH!!!! So many here are auto.

there is a 90 breaking on ebay...some shonky lebanese guy,doesnt even give prices. the car I got the reg from is a cab in WA,,prob auto. Ill keep my eyes open..
as for the wheels,you have first choice on them.1 is brand new with new rubber!

do you think its easier just to change the hubs? adaptors will cost me over $600..... and finding 4 x 108 wheels is becoming a pain as most are bloody ugly.

Mate have you seen this guys set up?

How about these - http://www.ozaudi.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18566

Search that forum topic and you will probably find some other recent listing that could be worth following up. IIRC there were a couple of sets that didnt sell.

what a stupid forum....2 days waiting activation...................I tried pming him here.
emailed a guy on ebay about making up a set of adaptors,
It is possible to make spacers from 4 stud Pcd- 108 to 5 stud Pcd-112 but spacers have to at least 45mm to 50mm thick as you are changeing the number of studs. Priced around $175 + postage and handling each.
bit confused on what the price is exactly so ive emailed him back.


also found this site...

I reckon those original Speedline rims look awesome as they are.
Don't see very many around as well.

Personally i'd probably just stick with those.

[gpk_gti]

id rather drive around with my underpants on my head.

prefer to stick with a audi rim or (dreaming) porsche cups .

i didnt know you had a 90, i dont like your chances of fitting my wheels on a 90, my sister has a 90 with 16"s and they scrub, smaller arches than the 80, ive got a 90 quattro as well i should try them out on that.

[gpk_gti]

cleaned the interior like new on the weekend.... no cracks or damage anywhere...
fitted some new globes to tacho and speedo ,fitted window reg ,works like new!

in the rear central arm rest there is a bag that opens to nearly the gearstick,,,really crazy thing,has a valve and is heavy duty plastic.. took me a while to work it out ,but I realised its a bag for your skis!!! hehehe

also bought this on ebay, won it by 1p! tip,always bid with 0.01c extra,so if you want to bid $10.00 always put $10.01.I have won heaps of stuff using this method.

[gpk_gti]

yeah s2 from blighty

I found these in 4x108, they look nice, not sure on your taste and how much you want to pay, but Vortex wheels classifieds has a 4x108 section.
These were cheap .....
