Long story, but basically i owe someone a set of steel rods and 82mm forged pistons for an audi a4 1.8t motor, anyone got a decent priced supplier for them?
Stateside or over here, not too botheed, but i do need them relatively quickly (EIP Tuning who i was going to be using can get some particuarly nice ones but its a six week delay )
Seriously though, thanks for trying mate, it really is much appreciated as i know you arent really a VAG supplier but i really need to be keeping it to not much over a grand for both the rods and pistons ideally.
Was budgeting about 650 for rods and 450 for pistons.
Was only 800 quid stateside from EIP for both
(including shipping)
having problems with pistons tbh as there are a few differences to the 1.8 motors
would need sample piston, 630 quid and 5 weeks so i guess no to ross racing pistons lol
Ive found a few other stateside suppliers, they are all the same sort of price, circa 1600 dollars including postage to the uk (taxes to pay on top though)
But that should bring it in under a grand if i can get them to make the cost down for shipping.
Thanks very much for trying Rob.
Have you got those injectors off to my mate John yet?
(oh and thanks for the big mac meal it was lovely lmao)
Can send you the other 3 quid at some point if you want, it was just FAR too funny not to exploit your good nature and take you right out of context at the time lmao
$555 for the pistons
$625 for the rods
$100ish for shipping
And they will mark them down for tax.
So about
800 quid all in.
Wahooo
And only 14 days to make the pistons!
