You will love the AUDI - they're tops cars :whistling:

Although they're a bit of a "wifes" car - good for her to do the shopping and get the kids from school then dad can give it a bit of punishment on the weekend

Was it like this one?

Starting the thread with...

the time has come!

FFS! can someone be a little bit more original :blink:

Oh.. and AUDI sucks.

Induction Twin Turbo intercooled

Power 195kW @ 5800rpm

Torque 400Nm @ 1850rpm-3600rpm

Acceleration 0-100Km/h 5.7 secs

Kerb Weight 1615kg

Chip it and get an extra 60 or so kw and alot more torque, then exhaust and intake and im flying!

Sorry mars! ill change it to

Id rather have a big debt and a newer car than an old skyline when i can afford to pay off a new car!??

buy a 180 ya fag

...and be like everyone else? :P

It's sad letting a car go, my current runabout goes on the market as soon as the Stagea lands from Japland.

As much as it has cost to keep it on the road and caused me a lot of problems i'm going to miss it. :google:

Best of luck with the Audi! :nyaanyaa:

servicing isnt too bad actually... its the parts that are a tad more expensive... but still not as bad as getting them overnight delivered from jaapaaaan

im over my imports at the moment, its twin turbo sleeper time!

A mate of mine who used to be on these forums went from a R33 gts-t to a 2.7l tt S4. Said the same stuff as you. Cat back exhaust set him back 5k and took 6 months to manufacture and send from the US. Getting someone local to chip it was a rort they wanted $1600 to load some software.

Things may have changed since then but i doubt its cheap yet.

Dont listen to them Ed! you will love the S4, i used to have a B6 1.8T Quattro work car and that was a very nice drive. Just remember with euro's you go through more brake discs compared to a jap car (usually every 2-3 sets of pads)

    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
    • EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
