CONVERSION 2.7t A6 to RS6

[2.7t steve]

I'm doing conversion on my 2004 2.7t a6 to RS6

difference between 04 a6 and rs6:
Bumpers
bumper supports
Hood
Headlights
fenders and quarter panels
exhaust tips
and a lot of small parts that i will let you know of later!!!

Thanks!!! I will!!!

[Vinchenzo51]

wow, can't wait to see this all done!

good luck with the project

Just for grins, are there any dimensional differences between the RS6 and 2.7T hoods? It's rumored that V8 C5s could have a longer engine bay than V6 C5 models and I'm curious just how much longer.

and on a side question wasn't there a drive train difference to the RS6 as well?

[btsline04]

A-MAZING fenders and all huh? mustve been a pretty penny so far! good luck with it and i cant wait to see it finished!

Wow. Crazy to see the difference in fender widths.

Good luck with the project, but I have to question why you don't just buy an rs6 for the price you'll spend with the conversion...

[2.7t steve]

it would be more expensive and way slower, and i would spend allot on converting it to stick.

2 inches

I'm not hating but it would have probably been easier/cheaper to buy an A6 4.2 and put a 2.7tt in it.

[2.7t steve]

i know that a6 4.2 is a bit cheap to convert to rs6, but to convert 4.2 to 2.7t 6speed is way more money!!! PLUS 4.2 costs more money than 2.7t thanks for your advice!!!

[Auda]

2 inches? More like 6 inches longer.

Yeah, my thoughts exactly...
But he already has the 2.7 so ya gotta go with what ya have...

[patrick23]

so are you going to weld on bigger fenders? or are you going to trim the bumpers? or are putting on RS6 fenders?

[green a6]

good luck wit the new build

[coolgraymemo]

i want to see the final results...

RS6 fenders are the same as the A6 4.2 in fact all the panels are the same as the 4.2.

[patrick23]

so he's putting on 4.2 fenders on the front then??
what about the rear panels?

[2.7t steve]

[jeffp477]
