Good stuff mate, glad youve found the love for it again, it was close to being mine at one point. Im debating wether to just leave mine a it is seens i like it so much lol.You'll be happy to know Craig I'm back in love. Pulled it in the workshop the other day and took this. I need cheap ideas now I'm bored and skint haha

Thinking about buying an S4 b5 saloon and doing an Rs4 wide arch conversion as well as keeping the B7.
I just dont want to spoil my car and make it unreliable.... so im in 2 minds at the momment.
Yeah definitely. I need to make my mind up fast though. I dont want to end up spending my life under the bonnet like i did with the A4. Plus 435bhp is enough really.I know what you mean. I'd like to play with mine a little bit not do too much. We will have to share some ideas
The jhm charger is still an option, im just trying to find a happy medium between race car and every day does what it says on the tin car, if that makes sense.No heard of any issues with the JHM SC and can only think it will enhance the car. You're A4 was all custom and in the unknown. With the JHM kit you know it been tested to the limit.
in regards to the b5 RS4 conversion based on the S4 it will be a engine out job for most things but a b5 with a VR6 lump and turbo could be a better option with loads of space to work on?

And if you really want to do the RS4 body conversion have a look at my old car I documented it quite well and was the first UK Road going conversion.
Whats your budget mate? Supercharger is the main kit for the S4Hi Craig what mods can you do to a B6 S4 with JHM Parts
No i was just thinking of a ECU update or something along those lines as i have a BCS custom 200 cell exhaust.Whats your budget mate? Supercharger is the main kit for the S4
Ill look into mate.No i was just thinking of a ECU update or something along those lines as i have a BCS custom 200 cell exhaust.
Evening people, i havent been on here for a while for the reason that business has been hectik and ive been busy painting the RS4...
I didnt want to post until i had something good to post about...
So heres the full timelapse of the RS4 respray, hope you like
Cheers mate, i could look after you on price no problem, couldnt do it for free as an advertisement due to the cost and time involved. I was pushing it by turning it round in 20 hours mate tbh, week minimum usually. By all means ill look after youGood work mate. When ya wanna do a black one as advertising let me know it'll be all over the eibach stand in July lol
Cheers mate, your not far off with £2k really. With the strip and refit there can be a day alone. Theres load of places that will do a re spray for half what i would charge, but i would be conscious of the quality. Also for that price i would imagine everything would be masked as apose to removed.
Thats a good price for that amount of work mate. Bet it looked well!Morning , what i should have said was that was 20 yrs ago, Rover 827 Vitesse 5 dr British Racing Green all de-baged not bare metal but everything removed it did have a new back quarter panel and rear door had the arches re-worked for bigger wider wheels and it looked stunning when it was finished, the car had been to Moto-build in London, 4'' off floor new uprated inj & induction kit full stainless and 19'' Momo wheels, good for
145
Nothing more devastating than finding a rogue screw lol****** good turn around in less than 20 hours. My step dad used to run a body shop and stripping/refitting bored me to tears. Especially when you find a random screw at the end lol.
Me too mate, i get out of breath lolGood effort - makes me tired just watching your youtube clip!
Its been a while since my last confession
So here iam, we went over to unicorn motor developments last week and restored a very slow RS4 from 299bhp to 402bhp and 336lbft. This was all after a carbon clean, full milltek decat non res system and after solving a series of vac leaks we're back to nearly what it should be. (Although we know most stock RS4s are struggling for 380bhp let alone the 414bhp claimed.
Anyway, while we were over there, we fired mine onto the dyno for a power run. Its been 2 years since its last carbon clean and stage 2 software. It run 402bhp and 334lbft from the claimed 429bhp (435ps) 340lbft. So im not too dissapointed as it shows that its still doing things properly.
Because we could bk2bk 2 Rs4s on the dyno we managed to log air flow and the silver Rs with the recent carbon clean showed ver nice air flow, where as im mine was up and down, in return pulling 7 degreees of timing.
So ive ordered some Jhm inlet manifold spacers, gonna perform another carbon clean at the same time, then run some logs to see if the air flow and timing pull has been cured, then back over for another run.
Im still toying with supercharger or twin turbo, but im still enjoying learning the RS4 and how it relys so much on its complicated vac system for power.
If you have a vac leak or even an upraded air filter and havent taken the steps to code out the solenoid for the power flap, it will not advance the timing @5k(safety feature for the engine)in return, no power and no 2nd kick @ 5k.
Any way, heres some vids

You have to remove them mate, then code them out so the car doesnt expect them to be there. Otherwise it brings up a faultWhat's this about coding out flap mate?
