A4/S4/RS4 Owners - Your cars please

[RS ZWEI]

Looks like a Regular A4 1.8t Quattro Avant to me? I thought Le Mans A4s came with Body Kit Chip Exhaust and BBS RC Wheels

Did you think that Noels Le Mans was standard?

Yep it is an unmodified Le Mans (avant). That's how they came, probably a bit understated but that is partly why I liked it. A really well balanced car - great handling.

Thanks Turbo I will contact the REVO crowd.

That Jacquard cloth seat material is superb stuff - had the same leather/jacquard combo on my 96 A4 - it is bullet proof.

If you are looking for a long term keeper a Le Mans would be a GREAT choice.

Cheers

2001 MTM avant is a great package , full leather,factory bilstein suspension and BLACK too.
Would be hard to replace

I have a 2001 1.8TQ Avant Le Mans. No mods but it is a great package as is. The photo below was taken a couple of days ago on Waikare Rd driving between Auckland and Tauranga.

Looks identical to my brothers wagon in sydney (although his is called a "GT"). He's just slapped some A8 replica wheels on his.

The AU cars have the same wheels, but they dont get the rest of the lemans package.

Hi.
I'm a newby to the forum action, but i'll kick off with my details.
2001 nz new 1.8T Quattro.
Forge Divertor valve, K & N filter, cat back Neuspeed stainless exhaust sytem, (groovy) Neuspeed short shifter.
Bilstein sport shocks and Neuspeed sport springs. Lowered vehicle an additional 25mm from the factory sport suspension, but massive improvement in ride quality and stability. Also Neuspeed 21mm rear sway bar. Probably one of the best things you could do to eliminate the push some Audis get when driven hard. Like mine did.....
19 x 8.5 imported ssw alloys and Goodyear F1s.
I've been tinkering with my Audi for 2 years, and i bring all these sorts of bits in from the USA.
My next upgrade is installing my GT28rs turbo charger, front mount intercooler and Revo stage 3 software......can't wait.

Welcome to the forum Quattro Guy. Nice car you have there.

How much power do you think it will put out with the new turbo?

[Quattro.guy]

Plan on about 350 engine hp on 1.1 bar max boost. Some americans claim easily more but relisticly the engine managements gunna be the make or break. At my shop in Tauranga, we work on plenty of 1.8 and 2.0 mitsy's (dear i say it) with faifly similar results, so i'll have to do the R & D until im happy i spose....

[Quattro.guy]

Yeh. I'm the owner of Speedfactor.

rad. keep us posted. we need some ridiculous A4's around NZ.

[Audidude]

Welcome here Evan!

You know who I am I'm sure when you spot my Integra Type R that you built into a Targa car for me  .



Didn't know you were planning such radical performance mods for the Audi! Don't think for a moment I'm going to let you loose on my DTM A4

Did your sister previously own a silver Mk4 4-motion golf?

I read somewhere that "boost pressure is boost pressure doesnt matter about the size of the turbo", ie: small turbos spool quicker but big turbos hold thier power longer etc. Clearly i am far short of 350hp, yet my 1.8t is running 1.4 bar. Surely your engine is using more air than mine, so does this mean your turbo is flowing more air at the same boost pressure, or you are running more boost? or is it another variable such as cam timings and head work etc that accounts for the increase in power...?
Sorry for sounding thick but ive heard so many contradicting opinions

RS4 owner for 1month. Previously had RS2.

Could not pass this car by when it came up for sale. Like new inside. Engine cleaner than new. Very well maintained, all servicing spot on. Car in original spec.
Anyone know who can remap so power does not cut off when left foot braking. RS4 does not allow throttle and brake to be on at same time!!!!! Obviosly to preserve brakes or something, but does not work for my style of driving. ESP on or off makes no difference.
Hope it is a simple thing to change. All help appreciated.
