So the rebuild begin.

Hey Justin

Yes it feels fast. :slight_smile:

Had for nearly a year now and car is running very strong. Worth every penny I spent.

Any treks to the track or run-ins with any other worthy cars?

I bet it’s a fun beast on the hwy with great tip-in.

Update: I still have the car and a blast to drive.

Additional items that have happened since the rebuild:

  • Replaced Steering pump twice
  • Replaced Fan and controller for A/C
  • HP Fuel Pumps
  • General Items: Tires, brakes, battery

The car has a little over 166,000 miles now

Been awhile since I have been on.
Car is still running. Need to sort a vacuum leak but that is all is required at the moment.

I replaced my PS pump with engine out of the car. Did you replace yours with engine in?

You really have to give it to Nordy great updates… The car has been one of the inspirations for many of us.

@laketahoequattro
Yes, did it will engine in. This was possible with the custom manifolds.
Make sure to replace the reservoir too.

Thanks, trying to post here more.
Just replaced the taillight bulb holders due to intermittent inductions of bulb failure but they were good.

Need to replace the ignition coils but otherwise still running.

Continue to love the car and that it’s still running. Heard there’s some more good power news for us soon in the 5.2… Something along the blower option. So I’m excited to hear more.

Tease

@justincredible
I have thought about it but it has been awhile since I heard anything on the supercharger.

I think it would be great if we could organize a S6 meet somehow.

The amex is prepped and waiting for blower kit

The blower would be a nice power addition.

Been dealing with some rough idle issues here and a vac leak. Ordered all new coil packs today as I did not replace them during the rebuild. Bad me.

Hi Everyone,
Back in Indiana now. Wanted to check if the Dropbox link in the thread is still good?
Just been doing normal maintenance on the car. Approaching 170,000 miles on it.

Any news on the supercharger? Also, picked up a 3.0T Q5 for the wife. Told her since she has a supercharger that I need a supercharger. :grin:

I agree. There are a few cars but for the most part nobody is supposed to know as theyre doing well. I’ve seen one of them it boogies for sure. They are prototype kits so they’ll need that more production end look but if all goes well should be the last quarter of this year from what I understand.
