BTW these frames are made that way straight from the factory, so they are not chopped. Imagine how they look on the transport truck when two of these cabs are bolted together back to back (as this is the normal way of shipping them to campervan, rescue vehicle etc builders) so it looks like a truck with no back but two front, looking like a railway vehicle.

Hey I've just replace snapped manifold studs on my bnz where it had warped , I see you used cap heads as replacement, why , do they not suffer the same fate when manifold warps again ?

The bolts are a slightly higher tensile that the studs, if the manifold wraps enough they will have the same faint, these can just be easier to install

Hi Darkside! 👋 I have a question about flywheels, since VW uses dual mass flywheel a lot. My 2k caddy started making some rattling noises. I kinda thought to my self, can we get from dmf to a single mass flywheel? Is the vw dmf lighter or heavier than other standard smf? And how can the weight of the flywheel affect the driving and the behavior of the engine!? Thank you.

@sje106 3 года назад

Can these 2.5 TDi’s go in the Golfs and A3’s? With DSG?

@SheepInACart 3 года назад

Not easily, its a physically longer engine than anything fitted from factory into that chassis, while the 2.5 PD TDI's themselves where only found in Toureg and Transporter, so you'd likely be modifying or changing most parts forward of the flywheel. If your willing to step up one size to the A4, the longitudinal 3.0L V6 TDI was a factory option that can make great power (although getting the 3L TDI, quattro and DSG in one car is still a rare beast)... otherwise if you really need to keep it golf/A3, your looking at boosting a 1.8-2.0L and the DSG (sold as Stronic) is fairly plentiful, but be careful as its also fussy about its care and expensive to fix/replace. I'm pretty sure there are DarkSide vids featuring all those engines already if your interested.

@sje106 3 года назад

@@SheepInACart keep in mind the RS3 has an inline 5 with DSG. So a golf and A3 aren’t too different to an RS3, so I’d be surprised if it doesn’t fit with some work.

@SheepInACart 3 года назад

@@sje106 RS3 was also a wider track width, which depending on how it was implemented may have been a factor. Not to mention your now talking about the petrol's rather than diesels, so there are some differences there too. I'm not saying its impossible, just you'll end up putting a vast amount of time and money in (and likely regulatory hassle most places to get it on the road) vs finding an A4 configured with the larger motor standard.

@sje106 3 года назад

@@SheepInACart what’s wider track got to do with it? They’re practically the same chassis. Track won’t matter. I’m not asking about A4’s, really don’t care about an A4.

If you have to ask you wont do it is what I usually say. It would be a tight fit but possible
