Hi all my friend is rebuilding engine for his girlfriends car its a S3 with the APY engine. we removed the pistons today and the skirts are really worn, so we are trying to find a new set of pistons. what is the best place to buy them from as i am struggling to find any. this car will never go...

Thanks, Suer i will try to get a thread done this week about it and what plants attract what. to look at my garden most people think it just a mass of weeds but most the plants in it are just to attract bee's and butterfly's

It's doing a fly over at Croft Nostalgia Festival next month i cant wait to see it

Its a S3 car is standard right now dont really have any plans other than stage two so think will just go for a OME manifold.

So went to fix oil leak from my turbo today and found this :( gutted one more job to add to list of many i need to do.

Finally got around to replacing it old one was well and truly dead sum of the ball bearing had ******** off sum where. I end up buying one from GSF

Thanks i didn't think any where did them lol been googling all day. Normally i would just get a oem one but after replacing my turbo on my drive last year with very little mechanical knowledge i realized how much i love working on cars so now i'm not working and back at college getting my motor...

i found out its £175 for new CV joint or 209.56 for new drive shaft with both CV joint for now just going to get a second hand shaft and when i have the money free mite as well just get a new drive shaft.

Cheers Tuffty i will just leave the shaft in and put up with the clunk of the cv joint better than causing more problems.

one more question if i take the fuse out for the haldex can i drive without rear driveshafts in this will only be for a week or so.

looks like they are different think for now i will have to get a second hand driveshaft just to be going on with.

I found the part numbers on etka look just about the same, all it is a friend has a new front one i can have but is rear one i need to replace.
