Hi all,
I got myself the red RS4 B5 that was lurking on here a while ago. I am pretty sure I made enquires about buying it off the last 3 owners - but finally got it off the dealer in PN.
It was a little bit nicer than I expected, so I am not using as much as I initially intended (not a daily driver - yet).
It is better than all the others I looked at, and goes better than certainly the tradin post one. Not quite as brutal as the black one that was chipped, but I think it just kicks in a bit later. It is a nice place to be in. the turbo lag is entertaining, and it is a bit scary when you give it beans! The only real negatives are the gearbox is a bit agricultural - not sure how you do quick changes in it, and it is a bit gutless below 2000rpm. I am not sure how you unsettle it - you would have to be a bit bonkers! Pretty happy with it really!!  :)

That's the one from Lee European.

Did the dealer tidy up the centre caps on the wheels ?

When I had a look at the car back in May the caps looked like Stevie Wonder fitted them.

;D

They are a good car out of the box. Owned one for 8 years! Daily.
The only 'must do' is the suspension, else the turn, roll, wait, now its coming over is just all wrong, especially when combiined with turbo lag.
Also, learn how to heal and toe, it helps allot when the box is cold, and down shifting.

the rear centre caps are pretty average. fronts are OK. small scratch on rear wheel arch, otherwise pretty mint for a 120k km car. I think the inside was given a good spruce up from previous photo's I had seen.
I played with double clutching, but I think it just made me busier rather than making the changes faster. I would guess a bit of heal-toe would be good on the track, especially with the lag. It is really only 2nd gear when it is cold that is an issue, and 3rd->2nd isn't too bad. But I do wonder how they do under 5sec to 100kph, but I guess it is only one gear change...
What is the "must do" on the suspension?

Suspension - Bilstein pss9 coilovers and a bigger rear arb, the arb alone will make a huge difference, on one of my 80 quattros (same susp setup) it has a 19mm bar (factory 10mm) and the difference is night and day

I did a 13.09 1/4 in my B5 RS4.
5,500 RPM and drop clutch was the only way.

standard or chipped? I presume traction control off. Without giving it a good go - the traction control appears quite intrusive, especially in the first couple of gears. I initially thought there was an issue until I noticed the little traction control light flashing on when I "had to" do a bit quicker start from the lights  ;D ;D

Non Chipped, ESP off.
