[QIKRNU]

Does anybody in the Greater Cincinnati area with a B6/B7 S4 have a Magnaflow catback. I am considering buying one, but would like to hear what it sounds like before I do.

Thanks

Feeling like I could make it - probably bring C4 though unless it looks nice. Had some fun today getting her sideways on a few turns - I'm increasingly addicted to this engine/chassis, need.bigger.turbo/suspension/brakes - or already built one. hmm..

[AntagonsticRS6]

Looks like I'm late to the party but thought I would introduce myself anyway. I have a C5 RS6 and recently moved to the Louisville from Denver. You don't see many Audi's out here!! Anyway, I'm considering selling the beast but I'm still not sure if I can part with her. Also, if you guys happen to know of anybody selling OEM RS4 wheels w/ tires (19x9 29mm) let me know. Good to meet you guys.

Jeff

P.S. I totally misspelled "Antagonistic."

[Getoffamybacon]

Jeff,

You should check out LouivilleVW.org (http://www.louisvillevw.org/forums/forum.php). I have met a bunch of Audi guys in that area on that site.

Also as far as wheels go: http://cincinnati.craigslist.org/pts/2767706835.html. I have no affiliation with the seller but I saw them the other day. Not sure what your budget is or how pristine your requirements are for wheels. They appear a little curbed.

[AntagonsticRS6]

Right on...I appreciate the links. I'm going to check them out right now.

Good find on the wheels man and I really do appreciate the foot work. Unfortunately I need to find a set of OEM wheels in order to fit over my calipers without spacers. I had spacers with my previous set and I'm not doing that again! I just signed up at LouisvilleVW under PJ777. Hope to see you around.

[Bdubs]

Finally made a C&C this weekend...arrived a little late, around 11am or so. There was a decent turnout...some old bimmers, some VW's, a few mini's, a couple street bikes and a lotus. There was one S4 there that left right after I arrived (driver was already in the car when I pulled up)...anybody on here?

Talked to a few people and walked through the cars with my 6 and 7 year old sons...my 6 year old had his Nintendo DSi and had a great time taking pictures of the cars. Maybe I'll see some of you out there once it warms up again.

[USAF Long]

Anyone able to do a heater core for me on a 97 A4? I have $500 cash for you if you can do it. I don't have the garage space to do it and don't want to pay 10 hours labor to a shop. Contact me by PM.

[MYDWAGON]

Why not.It takes 10 hours to do.I'm sure for a couple hundred more you can get a shop to do it.Some one who has done it before.Like Dubwerxs

[dmg312]

anyone have one of those history reports on cars that we aren't allowed to ask about?

[juntsky]

Hey guys! Sorry to be kinda salesy here but I'm in this HUGE contest with my company to win a trip to Playa del Carmen, Mexico that is based on sales. I have to sell 7500 by the end of the week (tonight) and I only have 1900 left to go. If anyone has any interest in cooking at all and enjoys really high quality, american made product, please shoot me a PM. Anything at all helps out!

[Unlucky11]

anyone have 1-4 rims and tires for an A4? im looking for the oem one for 02-05 but whatever works. I popped 2 tires within 10 hours of each other on my Rotiforms. so if you so happen to have a 225/35/19 tire I will love you forever.

[Bdubs]

Ok...enough 50+ degree weather with rain...I'm ready for some snow! Would be nice to use my Blizzaks for something other than an overly compliant ride with excessive front in push in aggressive corners...

[Getoffamybacon]

I agree. Look on the bright side of this morning: free car-wash (does not apply to those who parked in a garage though). I really need to drive in some snow soon.

Hey, at least they don't vibrate anymore!


Ha ha suckers! (said while I do a little happy dance) It's in the low 70's out here in Phoenix! ... now if I could just figure out how not to come back in the middle of Feb.

[Myallroad]

Richard, if the rs6 or r8 need some company, let me know.
Enjoy my most favorite state.

This is true...

At least it only took 4 tries, lesson being never run non-oem winter wheels without centering rings.

[Myallroad]

I dont know about anyone else, but I am actually ready for spring time!


Time to start planning a meet?


Who is down? What do you guys think?

Another spirited drive, a grill out to just hang out at a park, invade the milford car show on a friday night?

What do you think?

I'm jealous I was just out there the 16-the 22nd for the Barrett-Jackson auction and I hated to leave and come home the weather is so much better there!

I'd be up for a spring meet/drive. I'd personally rather just grab lunch someplace vs. having to plan a cookout/bring food/plan around the weather, but I'm open to whatever the larger group decides.

Hey guys, if anyone is looking for new summer wheels this guy is selling some Hartmann Reps 19x8.5 ET38. $600 but no tires. He is over in Amelia.

I was going to buy them until I found out the ET. He didn't know they were stamped on the rear of the rim.....

hey all,

okay so i posted a few months ago and i never got a chance to get on and talk.
any one close to colerain? any one with a b5 s4 wanna meet up?

im thinking of piggie-ing my dp's but dont know how loud it will make it.. from what i read and see on youtube it just changes the sound a little which is aweomse but if anyone around has a turbo back or piggie or aftermarket dp's... i wanna hear it!! lol

[KfabR8]

What to do when NOT in Ohio (aka, beating the Winter Ick):



Pay no attention to my stellar driving skills demonstrated at 1:24...
At least it wasn't in a car that has a set of rings on the hood/trunk. That would have been expensive.

I've got a set of stock downpipes laying around if you want them you can have them for $100 bucks. That way you can piggie these and just pull the ones on your car off and toss these on for a quicker turn around like I did. I've just been lazy and never piggied these to post them and recoop some of the money I spend on my other downpipes.

[Bdubs]

@ kfab...

[Myallroad]

Nice video Richard. Seems to be pretty smooth on the camera, soft suspension? how far with the shocks drop?


ahhhh i miss the az desert. FML.

hell yeah. they in good shape? ill take em as long as they arnt torn up, i dont see they would be lol.
once i get my tax return ill def take em.

is it hard to piggie them?

[99ebpsi24]

From what I remember they're in good shape. I took them off when I went stage 3 (in Nov. of 2010) and I took them to my dads shop and forgot about them to be honest lol. I think one of the flex joints braiding may be a little banged up if I remember correctly, but I'll have to double check that. I know for a fact they never had any leaks or dents in them though. If your interested I'll run out there and find them and grab some pics of them for you. To piggie them isn't too hard and there are a few different ways of doing it depending on if you know how to weld or not. Just shoot me a PM if you want me to run out there and grab the pics of them that way we don't clutter up this thread.

Mine were pigged out on b5 s4 i used to have.. Just adds a deeper tone.. I used a drill, punch and hammer to pig it out

Hey AWellman,
I have a Brilliant Black Stg3 B5 S4. If you ever want to meet up let me know and we can talk shop. Most of the guys know me on here and can vouch I am not a bot or someone that will mess with you. Any Audi owner is a friend of mine. I am in west chester so I am not that far from you either. PM me if you want my cell number and we can meet up and talk about S4's or whatever.

Hope everyone else is doing well with this mild winter. Kinda makes me upset I bought winter tires, oh well, at least i will have them for next year.

Side Note; why dont we have the first Audi Owners meet at one of the parks in or around Hyde Park, Mount Adams, or Mount Lookout area? Its a nice classy area with some beutiful scenery. Just saying. And its central for everyone to meet at.

Richard, its good to see you staying warm. We and the weather will be waiting for you come mid Feb. See you soon buddy.

-Sean

Guys

The Design School here at UC has decided to throw yet another curveball at me and long story short, I'm stuck here all spring and summer (rather than go out on co-op). So, because of this, I am starting to look around at options for my S4. I would like to bring it down around April and keep it down here until September and am looking to find a garage to keep it in preferably close enough to clifton that its not a hassle to get to, but not too close as its a rough area here (and no place for a clean BRIGHT BLUE Audi). Last year I brought it down here for a week and Tyler King let me keep it at his place but I am hoping to find a more permanent garage option as I'll only need it once or twice a week (and all weekend)

So, if anyone knows of any good garage/parking options in the inner city area, please let me know as I am starting to view some options. The thought of me not having my car ALL spring and summer just doesnt sit too well with me considering I havent seen it in a good 2 months and have stage 3 plans this summer for it. Thanks in advance gentlemen!
