    Any B7 owners here come from a CSL?

    PM returned! Just for anyone elses benefit, winter last year saw me put 300 miles on the CSL as I just couldn't keep it on the road in a straight line (on road tyres). Don't get me wrong, it is useable, but you can't boot it unless you're sure of the road conditions. My journeys in the...

    Well worth the trip to AmD yesterday . .

    Nice to see a Noggy one on the rollers! What did your car put out as standard and at what RPM? IIRC, max power standard is at 6k RPM and holds this until 7k RPM. Yours seems to be produced quite low. I can't find the graph of my Stg 1 RS4 but it put out 420 independently at QST a...

    NEW RS4???

    Who knows, there's rumours of both. Audi tarnished the RS brand by not limiting the RS6 numbers (except the plus), and some would say that selling a saloon also isn't right. I'll be keeping my B5 RS4 until there is something seriously tasty in the Audi range, which looks like it could take a...

    Eibach Springs...

    I ran Eibachs because the H&R's were bright red and you could see them a mile off. The Eibachs are a stealthy grey and were a mile better than standard, even with standard dampers. The front also drops more than the back ever so slightly. Hope that helps, Cheers Ben

    Recaro - rear access release lever

    Yep happened to me. It became stiff, stopped working most of the time, then the handle just snapped off. Fixed under warranty but make sure you check the panel where the handle is as they buitchered mine off to get to the mechanism. About 6 months later it started playing up again though. Crap...

    How much for Jester?

    There are '01 S3's for sale with those sort of miles for under £16k. I'd be happy for £15-£15.5k from the lease company. Best of luck, Ben
