Re: New Clutch Suggestions?

Which TTRS clutch? Didn't know that was an option. Looking at a clutch and flywheel in the near future and the Sachs organic with a new flywheel is around a grand in just parts. not sure which generation of TTRS fits but i believe it uses the clutch and pressure plate and the stock flywheel. Some h...

Re: New Clutch Suggestions?

the sachs organic is a heavy clutch.

the RTS has been changed and can now sound like a helicopter when idling.

cg i have not seen before.

there is also an option of fitting a TTRS clutch that gives a more oem like feel but has a higher torque rating

Re: CanBus database for 6C

Why would he need any more, he is not building a diagnostic device. He will probably use an CAN sniffer and send data to his raspberry pi, or arduino. The chinese headunits are not any better, you cant read dtcs with them, atleast there isnt an app. You still have to utilize elm. You will probably ...

How to do it? I have 3Q0035820B as well and want a carplay or mirrorlink on it
the only way is to replace the unit in the glovebox with a compatible unit (i really wouldn't bother with mirrorlink)

that's the basic unit. you can upgrade it to a unit that ends in 42C that will allow you to possibly use app connect.

just email them and ask about your options as it may be cheaper to get just a like for like replacement

Re: 02U Quaife differential?

Quiafe is torsen style lsd, this is not. If you ask me you cant beat it for <200 EUR and you have an LSD. I'm pretty sure if you need more than 25% that they can adjust it. This company started after the guy bought a quaife diff for his mr2 and was dissapointed that he still couldn't drift 😂 Anyway...
