My Mk4 buildup thread...

[Preen59]

Obviouslty this is a significant added expense and has completly blown out my budget but I'm thinking it might be best to do it once and do it right.

Smart man. It's cheaper in the long run..

I'm considering a change of direction slightly.

To date the parts I have include:
- K04-023
- S3 injectors
- S3 manifold
- S3 dump (on it's way)
- 4 Bar FPR
- FMIC core
- TIP (on it's way)
- Silicone Hose Kit (on it's way)

I still need to get all the bolts, gaskets and oil/coolant return lines wich is going to be another $700 plus. Ialso have the expense of tuning and also the labour involved. I've got the coin to do it, but I want to spend it wisely.

I'm thinking I might just do the FMIC for now (it's pretty universal) and save a bit more and get a quaife or a pelequin LSD plus an ECS stage 1 clutch sent also before I embark on this little build. The more I read into it, the more I'm begining to think my standard one will not last long and since we'll already be under there, I might as well do the LSD now also. Obviouslty this is a significant added expense and has completly blown out my budget but I'm thinking it might be best to do it once and do it right.

Or, I might just do the clutch for now and hold out for a while and do the LSD at a later date.... Hmmmmmmmm... Decisions.

What about fitting traction control instead of an LSD. That mate of mine in the UK has done it and rates it highly.

LSD is love. Traction control is just the fun police!
But yeah i vote if youre gonna have the gearbox off why not do the LSD. Makes sense.

It's very expensive sense. Off to do some more research...

Any one know the best place to get a LSD cheap. I like the price of the OBX but I doubt the quality of it...

Yeah you've sort of corrected yourself anyway but I think what you should've said was "Anyone know the best place to get a quality LSD at a good price".
I'm tossing and turning with the same thing at the moment as well. Wheels and brakes coming off, what else can I do whilst I'm down there and spending money.

Hmm, I just remembered I still have to do my tax return. That should hopefully get me that extra couple of G's I'll need...
