UKPassats

I havent posted in a while. Many things happened to my Passat, good and bad. First of I upgraded rear brakes to 300mm Discs, pads and calipers are from Audi S4 B7. Calipers needed a bit of modification for the handbrake cable and a thick shim for placement to fit. http://i987.photobucket.com/albums/...

Where can i find them and what is the price? Price on ebay is 400 pounds.

Will do an update soon.

I'm hoping for some of the same with my black passat running a 2260, R783 injector, bv head and cam.... I like your motor and the 19's really set it off... Really hoping to get a Pipercams camshaft on too. I found an offer on ebay.co.uk for 315.00 pounds. Can anyone get a better price for it? After...

Did you use the passat arms for the brake upgrade Sent from my SM-T585 using Tapatalk If you mean suspension arms then yes, those are original Passat arms. Good work, looks like a decent motor, the polished pics were impressive! Some good power too. :-bd Thanks, there is a bit more power now with F...

I have been very busy since last time. Went on a dyno and car showed 243hp and around 430Nm of torque. So next upgrade on engine will be injector nozzles. Went on a trip to Germany. Everything was fine until last 50km from home. Then this happened. http://i987.photobucket.com/albums/ae353/dujatdi/20...

Good work but not sure why you went for a GTB2260 if you weren't going to replace the injectors with some uprated items , or is that on the agenda ?. You can get 210bhp with a BV43 turbo and that is plug and play with PD130 injectors of course. Did you fit the uprated head bolts from the PD150 as t...

Haven't posted in a while. Done some work on my Passat. Season is comming so i'm in business. This is a nice number.

Was driving like this for a year and then found a complete 130HP engine and 6 speed gearbox for cheap going home http://i987.photobucket.com/albums/ae353/dujatdi/20150613_103808_zpsv9ux8buv.jpg two weeks later i got my vacation and put it to good use old one going out http://i987.photobucket.com/alb...

Then it was time for some engine work. 100HP was just not enough.
