Hey guys
Got my hands on this 1994 S2.
Its a awesome little car. It has a few little things to improve due but still goes really well. I don't know if or what mods have been done to it but I love it.

Welcome to the forum, great looking car.
What needs to be improved?
As for mods, it has been optioned up with 17 in wheels.
Has anyone played with the external wastegate?

I really dont know what mods have been done. Im going to have look in the log book and a chat to the mechanics at work (Giltrap) to see if they notice any mods. The old number plate was UNCOND and i know the guy who owned it looked after it. I put a euro plate on it just to make it look nicer. There has obvious wear and tear in the interior such as the leather on the steering wheel as perished a bit. I gave it a good cut and polish when i bought it which made it look awesome.

thats a sweet ride!

welcome!

I think I saw this car on College Hill a couple of months back - it was looking pristine. Was that you? Lovely looking car.

Thanks. Yea that would have been my S2 on College Hill. Defiantly like to keep it looking nice.

Saw your car a few months back too. I was driving down College Hill & had to U-turn to snap a photo. Looks great. What Audi colour is it?

I'm no expert on S2 VINs by any means - but decoding your car's VIN (http://s2central.net/vin_entry_sonic.html) gives a 1995 model year.

I was having a new set of Bridgestone RE002s fitted to my S2 by a guy at Firestone in Henderson (for an excellent price) - the previous owner took your car there for years as have we with ours. Do you know if your car was imported with the last batch of S2s to NZ as well? He seemed to think that it was & had ECU modifications done by Audi, as did mine. I've had this story told to me by Dad also.

I have no evidence (yet) from Audi to suggest that this was the case, but I'm waiting for the dealer who sold our one to us to give me a bit more info when he returns from Europe. I think he may even work for Giltraps now? Duane was his name.

I saw the previous owner in his S5 on the motorway a few months ago - same UNCOND plate on it. Nice car.

Duane still works for CCS, albeit manager on Wairau road.
Although i have heard things are changing there, maybe he is one of the casualties  :-\

Hey yea thats my car off College Hill and you are right about the date of the model. I went to get a spare key made and had to get a chip put in it which only 1995 models have. For some reason it is registered as a 1994 even though its a 1995. Im yet to talk to the people at giltrap about any mods that have been done but it wouldnt surprise me if there have been. There is a little switch under the steering wheel which would have been used for a radar jammer. Bit gutted its not still there.
I dont know a Duane at giltrap so he must work at CCS. Will let you guys know when i find some info about it.

Hey guys looking into getting a new exhaust system for my S2. Anyone know of any good ones that I should look into
