Got some AN Connections for the turbo. AN4 for the oil and AN6 for the water. Got a original gearbox Mount and drilled holes for the ZF. Welded Mount for the MAP sensor. Please dont look at the welds! Spotted the intercooler/radiator Mount together. Had to cut away alot from the lightmount plates to get Space for everything. Spotted With everything in Place! Started on the New strutbrace, bolted together the parts. Spotted the first part of the generator Mount. Borrowed this awesome tool from a friend! Drawed some parts and had a friend at my old work Place cut them out for me. Spotted together ![]() Spotted and welded the first pressure pipe:D |

![]() I'm one hour and a half into your thread reading everything and looking at the pictures. Was well worth the time.
Respect on the attention to detail, car is coming along nicely. Great inspiration and motivation for my 242 project, also considering to make it widebody now after seeing 2 widened 242s. |

![]() Thanks! Its right/left threaded so its easy to adjust

![]() Just do it! Its alot of welding but not so hard. My biggest tip is to buy the wheels you want first. Would have saved me alot of work since I had to redo some small things after testing the wheels. |

Decided to drop the airfilter box I made. It didnt fit with the new front and I think the front end is much more important. Welded a pipe for the filter. Will have a hose from the inner fender and place the filter somewere in the front. Last two welds of the week turned out awesome in my opinion ![]() Like this. Will be a plate bolted in the inner fender and welded to the pipe. The pipe goes from 3"-3,5" and from 3,5"-4" right before the end. When youre working 10+ hours on the car each day its nessesary with good lunch! Welded some holes I dont need in the front plate. |

![]() This is insane! Are you using really stiff engine mounts? There doesn't seem to be much flex in the intake and intercooler piping.

![]() But Since there are 90 degrees silicone on both intake and turbo I think it will work fine. They allow pretty much movement ![]() ![]() If this doesnt work I will replace the connections with movable. I bought these, and two weeks later speeding had new ones(same brand) who can move around some degrees...But since I already had these I want to try them. |

![]() I've been reading your thread today on your awesome build! I got to pg 26 from 2015 where you mounted the Watts link. Something didn't seem right about how you did it and I don't know if anyone else has addressed it since I've traveled through time to 2018. It's where you mentioned getting both arms to the same angle that seemed wrong. So here is a vid I found about the basic workings of a Watts link:

![]() The parts they have that they make themselves are really good quality and they make spareparts for everything ![]() If you are ordering something you can mention my name, that would be really Nice of you ![]() ![]() |
