Even though we tend to focus our blog mostly on the performance and fabrication sides of Fluid MotorUnion, we also have a fully-equipped maintenance wing where we do almost every kind of service to almost every vehicle imaginable.
The RS6 you all know and love got some new and upgraded goodies recently.
A happy Columbus Day to everyone! If you happen to be in grade school or work for a variety of governmental outfits, then enjoy your day off. For the rest of us, however, it's business as usual. In honor of this undercelebrated day, we're showcasing one of the more undercelebrated parts of Fluid MotorUnion -- our shop pups, Diesel and Jade.
Welcome to the first installment in a new weekly feature of Fluid MotorUnion's blog, Education Station (name subject to change). The aim of this project is to make simple the many systems that occupy space in and help to power your vehicle.
After rooting through some of the older sets of pictures in iPhoto, we came across some pictures that we took within the last week or so of the RS6. Since we haven't provided an update on the RS6 for a while, we realized that our newest addition to its engine bay ended up being passed over.
Guess what's finished?
Our collective Fluid hats must once again be tipped to the dynamic duo of welding, Craig and Tom. Their work on these custom C63 headers is nothing short of wonderful, as always. It took a lot of test fitting, but now everything is...
Today is a very exciting day at Fluid MotorUnion. After the other fun stuff to happen to us this week (getting the feature in European Car and having our minds blown by Burroughs' wicked E28), we managed to hit a milestone! Today marks the first time that Fluid MotorUnion has sold and shipped a custom-fabricated part.
There's no doubt that Volkswagen has a strong presence in the stance scene. Many corners of StanceWorks' forum are littered with varying generations of varying Volkswagens, each carrying its own unique street-sweeper stance. Heights range from near-stock to so-slammed-it's-practically-part-of-the-ground. This week, we helped a fifth generation (MkV) GTI move its way toward the latter.
There hasn't been too much static content on this website lately. For those not in the know, static refers to the lowering of a car by means of changing the springs or coilovers, as opposed to installing an airbag system (which can change its height with a switch, dynamically, hence static being the opposite). That changes today.
