The luxury of AWD

[speeding-g60]

I think I heard about that..... does he go by "turbodub" on vortex?

yup thats Todd. and they used my T3 .82 housing to do the tuning until his new turbo gets there.....

[Jake39454]

yup thats Todd. and they used my T3 .82 housing to do the tuning until his new turbo gets there.....

Yep, your housing made it all happen

[speeding-g60]

ASS.

[Jake39454]

ASS.

Hey for reals homes... That T4 shit wasn't cutting it for Todd... He made as much power on a fucked T3 .82 as the in good shape T4 setup with way more power under the curve... What's his new setup gonna be?

[speeding-g60]

just the way you said it HAHA. you made it sound like i meant the whole thing revolved around me... Kevin just asked if they could borrow it for awhile and tune on it. you gotta know by now that i am a team player, Jake. hell, you should buy it now thats already on that side of the world!!!

Lemme know how much... I want to break 600whp sooooo...

[Haenszel20v]

well...... tore it apart.


Found this when i drained the oil:



And this when I got the pan out and center cap off:


Looks to me like a new crank, new mains, new thrust and we should be alright..... rods/etc look ok to me.

Ouch that sucks, hope you get her going again, I wanna see what your 364 does power wise

yeah it'll be back. Parts are ordered. Need to find a crank though.

[Sales@RAI]

damn dude

[O2VW1.8T]

I can't even remember if you are 2.0 or 1.8, but I have the stock crank out of my AMB (2003 A4) from when I changed to 2 liter.

shoot me a price shipped. And are the surfaces still non-rusty?

[A4 TSCHUSS]

I have had it sitting in a box. I just took it out and looked at it and I don't see any rust anywhere. I am going to take some pics for you but have to wait a few minutes for camera battery to charge. There is a little dust on it but no rust. I rubbed my finger on one of the journals and it feels oily still. Shipping I will have to look into, no clue what that will cost and how quick you want it. What is your zip?

20176, gratzi.

[speeding-g60]

weight is roughly 38 pounds. at least, the 92.8mm crank was that much.

and the sig, "FOR SALE AMB Crank $60 " good stuff there.

[A4 TSCHUSS]

Still waiting on camera battery, just weighed it though 31.4 lbs on my scale

[speeding-g60]

much lighter than the "strokeR" crank for sure.

[A4 TSCHUSS]

Well the re weigh was 31.6 for the pic. Here they are. A few of the pics might look like there is something on there, that is the dust left from when I rubbed my finger across the journals. I just rubbed more oil on all of them as well after these pics.











USPS regular shipping is $22.65, Priority is $36.70, don't think it would make a difference though since they say 2 days in transit.
UPS regular shipping is $22.10 (says 2 days)

So if you want it say like $85 shipped.

[Haenszel20v]

sold, paypal?

[A4 TSCHUSS]

Urbamworm@aol.com, send it as a gift under the personal tab so I don't get charged the 3% fee

[speeding-g60]

haha. great deal.

is the crank trigger wheel there though? or do you press yours onto it? maybe i dont know WTF i am talkin about....

[Haenszel20v]

They just bolt on.

[speeding-g60]

OIC. carry on then. ( told you i may not know WTF i was talikin )

[Don Supreme]

Brian,

Did you install new thrust washers and mains when you built it a couple weeks ago or just re-used what was already in there?

[Haenszel20v]

Brian,

I didn't even touch the crank, mains, etc thinking "shit, it worked fine before, lets not touch what ain't broke". Now I laugh.

[BubbaNaAudi]

I tell you what I have to give it to this kid. he never gives up I have known Brian for a couple years now and he just keeps at it. I am sure there are a lot of people that would of just gave up by now. He doesn't he just keeps going at it. I admire this keep it up Brian.












































I wonder what he does when he gets off the net does he go to his room and cry? Just joking little guy.

[Don Supreme]

Yes, Brian is beyond dedicated.

[bernB5]

it even goes past dedicated. he's so confident with the work and knows exactly how to troubleshoot, what parts to get and how to install them; i'm envious. Not that it's easy work, but the fact that you can brake something and get it back together in a week is great. this car will be awesome

Never would have learned how to do anything if I had never tried it myself. I've never had a car in a shop. I've simply gotten here by digging in and screwing up a WHOLE BUNCH over the past few years.

[speeding-g60]

its the way us poor kids learn to work on cars. too broke to pay to have it fixed, live and learn.

[bernB5]

i'm in the same boat. luckily i've never had crank issues, but if i did, i can guarentee you i'd be doing it myself haha. only way to learn is to do it and make mistakes. that's why it pisses me off when kids say they want to go to tech school to learn how to work on cars, when really, you just need to get your hands dirty.

[dirtybrd]

Please use new bolt on the trigger wheel, I've seen them come loose from used bolts. But I'm sure you new that.

[Haenszel20v]

why do people even pull them off? Don't quite get that.

[Jake39454]

Same here, I've never taken one out...

[chris164935]

Are you planning to replace the block as well?

[Haenszel20v]

Are you planning to replace the block as well?

not in the least.

[Sales@RAI]

haha then we'd have to make a trip over to CR. Brian, its deadly for an Audi/VW to stumble into your driveway, it gets gutted before it cools down hah

[Haenszel20v]

yeah haha. Its really sad that we do this to ourselves.

[speeding-g60]
