Also, going to Chasers Motorworks on Monday. Ordering in a Nistune board and also booking in my 90k km service with them.

All up, including service, supply of board and tune should cost me $1100. Hopefully they'll look after me... Cant wait to see the difference after a tune!

Chasers seems alright, a lot of nice show/ race cars are always in there. My old office in the same strip. Good bunch of guys but that was 3 years ago.

Let us know how you go with Chasers and the work they do. I would be most interested.

That looks like a nice car. Very rare combo of black, factory RS4s manual and sunroofs. These cars don't come up very often in that factory spec.

thanks mate :) i'm looking at possibly a new front end though... just have nfi what to look for at the moment!!

i wish my rs4s was black :(

I love black, but its a bitch to keep clean!!

That won't fit your car as it is for a series one and you've got a series two. Check out Import Monster, I got my NA grill (pretty much the same as the one in your link) through them for about $180, and it only took about a week to get from Japan to Tassie. One like this:

Thanks mate. That should fit straight into my S2? Or do you need to modify it further to fit it?

That should fit straight on as far as I know. Series 2 grills have the holes for the fog lights, series 1 grills don't. Apart from that they are pretty standard as far as I am aware. Mine just fitted straight on when I got it.

Seeing as I'm located in Deer Park and fairly close to you, happy to let you take mine off and trial fit it on yours to make up your mind. :thumbsup:

Mine is the second grill and painted black but it now is a bit flakey, suppose it'll still give you an idea how it'll look.

I have the second one on my white car, but it has been painted black with the badges unclipped, so no chrome.

I'm happy with it on a white background, might be too much black for a black car.

It came like that imported, but I did notice you can get similar mesh at all the auto (and hardware?) stores :)

never had a problem at all, had the car well over two years now, and not a single problem from the po-po

(considering I've got a carbon fibre hood, bov, fmic, pod, no cat and 3' turbo back... :D)

they prob like... hmmmm volvo... nice volvo... now where's the skyline that has that bov.. *turns head*

I vote get the mesh and see what you think dude .. I think it looks way better than any of the stock grills.

If you are not too sure better to spend less cash and get it looking a little nicer while you make up your mind.

Although most member seem to have stock grills so I'd keep yours

Heres the front of mine with the series two grill if you want to know exactly what yours would look like

      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.

      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.

      I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things

      I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt
