Thread: Stage 2 Going from DE+t to DET

rs5f70A vs rs5f32A

nice man keep up the hard work it will pay off trust

Keeping cable clutch or going hydraulic?

Cable, but if i see i can get hydro for cheap i´ll convert it when gearbox goes in.

The car is up and runing, the solid mounts, 13lb fly and 4 puck FX500 clutch make it a challenge to drive slow, much more noisy and agressive, it takes used to... i think i can live with the clutch and fly but not sure about the mounts, the car rattles alot, really don´t like that race car feel. Also my EWG downpipe makes some noise as you can see in the video.

Now i´m running mineral oil for 500km or so, doing slow run in, then more boost, bigger injectors, fuel pump, fuel pressure and proper managment, going nistune.

Damn those prothanes, i hate them... think i´m going to revert to stock, or maybe miz and match to get the best result!?

Maybe stock everything and the front one solid?

Oh and i just fucked the rest of my allready "singing" CV joint due to "clutch newbiness".

Im going with hydraulic on my N14. Ive got 70A for 90USD and it came with slave cylinder too so I need only few parts to make it complete. I think that N16 pedal and master cylinder should fit N14.

That´s good info, will investigate that...

Keep the Prothanes in for a bit. I got used to mine, and I just traced down the rattles and tightened them up. You'll be glad you have them once you start making more power. Especially with that fx500 clutch.

It´s way too agressive, cannot live with that.

I ordered 2 motormouns, let´s see if it gets better. If not i´ll order the other 2.

The passenger (RH) side engine mount will cause the most vibration and noise in the cabin. Try replacing it with an OEM mount and see how the car feels.
