Looking to buy a 98-00 rs4s s1 and wanted to know of the best dealers/importers to go through around melbourne?

cheers.

You can't...

98-00 are all series2's, also s1 manuals were never made. A few have been converted.

Buy private, you save a lot of bucks.

meant s2, just looking for one either like.. black or gunmetal grey and about as stock as possible, with the major 100k service done.

pretty much my dream car, but because of my job its hard to get out and go see the ones for sale. bit of a pain.

J-Spec Imports are melbourne based, may be worth having a browse of their website. They show auction and dealer cars currently in Japan, if you want to pick one to import. Just on a quick look of their site to give you some examples I found:

Auction Cars (Japan)

http://www.j-specimports.com.au/auction/20...on-4403811.html

http://www.j-specimports.com.au/auction/19...BO-4403814.html

http://www.j-specimports.com.au/auction/19...UR-4403816.html

http://www.j-specimports.com.au/auction/19...hV-4431611.html

Dealer Cars (Japan)

http://www.j-specimports.com.au/dealer/199...UR-3754787.html

http://www.j-specimports.com.au/dealer/199..._V-3754779.html

Personally I would be aiming for something with under 100,000km's, on the plus side if you have the 100,000km service done by a reputable workshop atleast you have some assurance that it's been done properly. That's just my take on it, cars 100,000km plus are going to show a lot of interior and exterior wear and tear.

I bought mine through luxury and performance vehciles in Scoresby road bayswater. Frank Wang is his name and the number is 97206789. He was good to deal with and ive had mine for 4 years now and its never missed a beat. he can also organise a 3 year used car warranty which is worth having..

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      boost source Size Garrett gt28 gen2

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
