From A4 (B6) to RS4 (B7)

[Speedymon]

wow

[pyro]

absolutely stunning. I see this thing in magazines and audi of the month on here hands down. keep us posted for sure!

[cotmfk]

That's awesome, man! It's kind of like you are building the car from scratch. :) Good luck with the rest of the build.

[jsizzle20]

what wheels are these on this car?!?!?

[gunxit]

Sick work!!! Truly amazingggg.


If the B7 RS4 motor is so expensive, why not a 2.7 T ???

Whatever you do, thanks for the eye candy. Work was much better today thanks to this thread

[b00st]

crazy build...mod it the way you want. props for doing what you do. it looks good.

[|FYASKO|]

[nealRlett]

[speedee911]

[GTMRS4]

Just sick!!!

[Maverick]

Amazing transformation. acutally this is more than a transformation.
Nice work man. Hard earned money spent on the right thing.
Love that transformed widebody B5, damn, one of my favorite audi of all time.

I am surprised to see NASCAR in a Norway body shop, lol

dont you guys have any tuner shows there..they should've done a show on your car and record the progress of it and then air it on TV..then put it on youtube or something, so we can all watch..this is just amazing..im speechless..the color is NICE!

Check out this build of the E90 GatebilTaxi.. You can see the widebody B5 in the background during the bulid

We got a lot of work done today, -doorpanels, rear brakes, rear bumper etc.

And finally on its own wheels!!! Have to geta a set of wheelspacers to make it just perfect...

[Dolphin18T]

Wow, this is strange, but I have nothing but respect for the project. Awesome work!

[evilb]

I have an idea... when you're done with this project, let's race, then compare receipts

Why put RS4 wheels on there? Some spinnaz would be much more fitting to with the gold paint job. Do you have any matching "crown" air fresheners for your dash and rear decklid? Fuzzy dice?

Ok, I'll stop...

Intense project. Props for taking it on. But really... why? Because you can? Terrible answer.

[jdmnomore]

Sir lets keep the hate to a minumum please. The guy already explained why. Does that mean it makes sense, the word opinion comes to mind. I cant quite see the point myself however thats one hell of a body kit.

Because we can. And because a prorper RS4 is $250000 - used.

And about the color. its from a 1981 Chrysler

I guess we should have done avus silver to match the rest of the 5000000000 Audis with that color But seriously, thanks for caring.

I guess you're not only smart with car projects...

Seriously...how could you guys make such fast progress so quickly??? It's just like how fast they could build a house here in America!

[speedydragon]

wow nice. are you running rs4 brakes in the rear too? Any shots of the interior?

[Billi]

Standard RS4 rear brakes in the rear.
you cab see the frontseats on the first page... more pictures will come:)

[PRY4SNO]

Must say that's one Hell of an ambitious project and with the TDI it'll be nothing if not unique. I've considered doing a (1.9L VW) TDI swap but it'd be murder with the labour.

Not a fan of the colour (would have picked a green, or flat/matte black myself) but one can't overestimate the whole project's originality factor.

[RAVI]

amazing dude.. just saw this thread.. fucking amazing! your car would look like with some more carbon fiber accents.. roof spoiler, chin spoiler..

[dtm4me]

Very, very nice work. I applaud you and your efforts! Looking forward to seeing the finished product.

[RAudi Driver]

It's only $4,500 USD for the body kit. It's really not that bad considering that an exhaust for the RS4 costs $5,000.

[MTLA4]

I should have bought my wreck(thanks drunker)from the insurance company and do so LOL....but looking at this

OUCCCHH harsh...

I can promiss you that I would not get far with 4500usd when turning a B6 into RS4 B7! The first order I did from germany has dealer price here in norway at about 34500usd! I pay alot less, but still there are a lot of parts into this project!
If i had an A4 B7 I wouldn't have to change the front doors, any of the lamps, hood, and many more parts..

I Guess We Should Have Done Avus Silver To Match The Rest Of The 5000000000 Audis With That Color

Lol!!!!

[zachf88]

That lip spoiler looks soo good! Any more pics?

$250,000 for an RS4, eh? Amazing.

There's a big reason why Audi has colors like Avus silver, and not metallic gold: Because Audi might sell one of them in gold... maybe two

To each his own... but converting a B6 to B7 alone seems ridiculous, especially on such a lowly powertrain, let alone the same powertrain with an RS4 body.

This is a message forum... on the internet... everybody on here isn't going to tell you how awesome this project is. Such is life.

[CaptDistraction]

Awesome project guys.

Most of the mods we do, are born of big things like this.

[doublezero30]

wow this project is nuts. if i had the money/tools/know-how to do something like this i totally would. im not saying ide do exactly this, but something just as unique.

question: how easily did the sideskirts bolt on? any modifications have to be made? i think those things look nasty.

[|FYASKO|]

got any updated shots?

I see no reason for you to comment in this thread just to say bad things about this guys work. I'm sure your comments don't phase him at all... but you have no reason to hate on this guys work. He has better reasons for his conversion then your reasons for negatively criticizing him.

Good job man that looks stunning. Definitely some amazing work.

[thenicholsterr]

People will think that you put a B6 diesel engine into a RS4 and not the other way lol

[s4ck]

It's hard to believe you couldnt find a used or damaged rs4 for around the same price this is costing you when it's all said and done. Plus an rs4 title would come in handy when you want to sell. Very classy looking car.

[aaaudiprotein]

A lot of us dont understand (forget) that Europeans pay way more for the cars than we do. I remember when b7 s4 DTM pkg came out, that was like 100K+ in Moscow.

[Rippin]

Don't mind the haters. Props to the tremendous amount of effort you're putting into your project.
