Back in another B5 =)

[NYEuroTuner]

Been gone a while, parted out my old B5 due to back to back Detachments and training. But back now, and had an S4 itch to scratch. Picked her up from a guy who babied her like no other. Had a stack of receipts of replaced components by dealer only. Guy took it to Germany with him where he was stationed and brought it back with him. I just couldn't pass this deal up.

Old B5






Anyways.. Moving foward... lol

Bought her as shown, with the BBS RKs and stock suspension. Long list of Mods, AWE Stage 3 Blah Blah Blah... You get the point.


Wife took some pics, thought I would share.

[RickyCastro]

I feel like I saw that one on eBay or Audiforums. Either way, it's definitely a beauty

Spotted her on the local Craigslist, he posted an ad with one tiny pic, and his cell fone number.. Thought it was gonna be a waste of my time until I went to check her out. I got lucky.

[Ms.S4]

Gorgeous, nice addition! Love the color.

Guy is getting stationed/retiring in Germany, he just picked up a 997 and has a few other vehicles that he is bringing with him. And no room for the B5.. Man this guy looked upset when I drove away, lol

yeah that's the car. good job man. I don't remember why I didn't pick it up. I think it was some stupid reason like that rs4 bumper or something.

[NYEuroTuner]

where in NC are you?

Jacksonville for now, transferring back to Cali in the next 90 days.

[Max@034]

Good to hear! Looks very babied. We just picked up a shop B5 S4, silver as well, that was virtually babied its entire life as well! They are rare!

Question; what kind of lens are you using?

I'll post more pics when I finally get back to Cali in about 10 days, really want to take more pics when I lower her and throw on my wheels, and I have my adapters at home as well, so I'll post the specs (rim size/offset/tires) as soon as I'm home.

[witwer4444]

Looking good George! Let me know on those 996's like we talked about

Hit you up when I get settled.

[NYEuroTuner]

Was taking out the spare since I'm shipping her to Cali, and boom, Brand new, never been used spare, even still had the sticker on it. Figure you guys would get a kick.

[MileMan402]

haha mine has the sticker too! And in for wheel specs

[NYEuroTuner]

Ladies have arrived in California

Wife's Golf and My Eleanor =)

The Good....








The Bad.... Guy rolled too far back and hit the rivets on the wall getting the S off the truck and did this -_-

Where he rolled into..













Called the owner and he said to send him the bill and would fully reimburse me for the repair. So I guess its not that bad... Anyways Now.. Euro Rear? lol =)

[V8EATER]

OUCH^

Looks really good. I know what you mean about the large binder full of reciepts!! I have every reciept from day one of my car from the previous owner. Enjoy it.

[AudiSportB5S4]

Nice man, I recognize the SN.. Good luck with the new S4 and location!

[Turtle]

I like your bumper. I am interested in doing the same thing. Better pics please

[NYEuroTuner]

I post more of the car when as soon as I lower her and slap my wheels, but speaking of wheels, repaired/refinished my 996'S.

[NYEuroTuner]

Apologies for the crappy cell pic, but I was test fitting, rears came out perfect, but its been a few years since I used the my current adapters and I really don't like the shape their in from being thrown around in the garage. So I ordered new ones from ECS and currently waiting for them to arrive, anyways, figured I'd test fit the rears, check clearances etc etc...





Now just waiting for the new adapters to arrive. =)

[NYEuroTuner]

Quick pic from Super Car Sunday, I overslept and was a bit late, still made it out towards the end, met a few fellow B5'ers

[NYEuroTuner]
