    What have you done to your Audi A4 B7 today?

    I use a very small gas torch to heat the fitting up and burn back some of the plastic coating off the pipe, works a treat everytime.

    S4 onto A4 rear brake upgrade.

    If you're not changing the carrier does the pad not sit in exactly the same place so actually there's no actually performance gain or are the pads wider to reach the outer edge of the disc?

    B7 cab diffusor/valance on avant?

    Doesn't fit, The B7 cab rear bumper is the same as was fitted to the B6 cab so not compatible with the B7 avants/saloons.

    Airtec FMIC's.

    As Sidrick eluded to, I’m sure most people, myself included would assume that priorities have to be made and exercise a level of understanding and expect delays. Try going direct, ryan@airtechmotorsport.co.uk, he’s expecting your email.

    Airtec FMIC's.

    They are surviving by operating on minimum staff so they can maintain social distancing within the work place. If it was my my company what would I concentrate my staff on? Fulfilling orders to keep up with demand and keep a steady cash flow coming in or sitting replying to emails in the off...

    Airtec FMIC's.

    WOW!! Not very often I get angry but from what I've just read I'm not actually sure you do "appreciate" how difficult times are for some. People are dying, struggling to feed their families, loosing jobs and that's just scratching the surface of the problems many are having to endure. Not...

    Wheel bolts

    Are you sure the wheels are 112 pcd? As far as I'm aware all 5x112 cars are M14 where as Japanese cars I think are 5x114 with M12?

    Wheel arch rolling, what it's all about .

    Unless it’s quite a bit of centre the wheel alignment won’t necessarily show up subframe issues so I would base too much on that, I would think the camber adjustment etc could easy cover up an imbalance between side.

    Wheel arch rolling, what it's all about .

    I’m pretty sure the rears are totally different to the fronts, almost rolled from the factory although it’s been a few years since I’ve seen B7 ones tho. That said you may still get a few mm’s if you roll straight on the o/s edge of the arch. That I can’t tell you, I think it will be very hard...

    Wheel arch rolling, what it's all about .

    I did mine on my car but only the front, can’t remember doing the rears, Is there a lip to roll on the rears? Is the rear subframe centralised?

    Upgrading 18z's to 352 x32 two piece rotors.

    It would be the 8 pot RS ones as they are radially mounted so easy to space. I had them spaced to run 380mm discs on my old avant. https://www.audi-sport.net/xf/threads/ajs-avant.237833/page-6

    Upgrading 18z's to 352 x32 two piece rotors.

    An adaptor to move the caliper 3.5mm?? Is it even possible to make one that small?? Buy a set of Girodiscs or if req'd get your 352's turned down a bit

    V8 S4 engine conversion

    I get what the others are saying but sometimes you've got to throw logic out the window and do your own thing, if you really feel attached to your existing car I say go for it. Unless you've got buckets of cash to throw at it I do agree a donor car is the way to go, your cash will go quickly on...

    Are all 3.2L created equally?

    I’m not really familiar with the 3.2 but think you could be on the right track. I’ve recently converted a 4.2 auto to manual and it had thin spacers between the flexplate and crank although i’d expect a garage to get that right. Another thing to check would be the sensor itself, depending on if...

    Are all 3.2L created equally?

    I really don't think it'll have anything to do with chassis differences or quattro. Is it only the engine you've changed? Not ECU, gearbox etc? Guessing you mean crank sensor and not cam sensor as crank reads from the flexplate, have they tried a replacement sensor? What gearbox is your...

    Time for a front end refresh.

    When's the RS4 replica bumper you had going on? Thought it was all painted up with the S4 blades and good to go?
