The car wont be ready until tomorrow. The shop said it took them longer than they though it would to take the front suspension off, and put it back together. So, the fronts are finished and the backs will be finished up in the morning. Then it's off the alignment shop and it should be ready in the early part of the afternoon.

Nice Bowaii! Can't wait to see some pics.

[AudiWxGuy]

It's Done!!! Going to pick it up soon!

[smcgann]

you ought to park it in front of mine and take a comparison pic.

[AudiWxGuy]

They were working on yours as i was there. It was up on the lift and the wheels were off. It looks great!!! It's lower than I thought it would be. I haven't gotten to put it through any paces yet, but the ride back to the station was impressive. Not too bouncy, but firmed up nicely. I'll get to take some good turns in a bit and I'll let you know how it was!!

Looks like a different car!

[JGreen76]

I feel your excitement, mine are in the mail.... Looking forward to seeing the pics and hearing your responce...

[AudiWxGuy]

Pics may not come till Monday. I'm going out of town this weekend, but as soon as I get, pics galore.

I'll have to do some compare/contrast photos.

[AudiWxGuy]

It's amazing how much more aggressive the car looks!

Your about to get flamed for this for not including pics. Plus I don't appreciate you rubbing salt in my wounds since mine is still in the shop unfinished.

[AudiWxGuy]

Pics...Figured out how to use Verizon Pix Place. 3 Pics I just took.

[smcgann]

Looks like they did it right, has that slight rake, does look low like you said.

[AudiWxGuy]

Yup. The back is supposed to be 1/8" higher than the front. They said they got it so it's actually a hair more than that. No biggie.

[supamannn99]

thats still pretty high

[smcgann]

thats still pretty high

Yes hi, compared to the tucked cars we see pics of on here, but our frame of reference is looking at our 4x4 looking A4's and now seeing the large difference from stock hight.

[joec500]

I have street sports too....Looks perfect, they will also settle a touch after a few weeks.

[AudiWxGuy]

Yeah, that's as low as I'm going to go. I'm not going for the tucked look. The only time I may get lower is if I get different wheels. But for now, this is fine. Got to put the car through a couple of turns on the way to dinner. Big difference. Stays nice and level. you can also feel the road a lot more. The ride is definitely sportier, but not by any means bad. Highway driving is still comfortable. I actually think the ride at speed is better on these than on the stock suspension as well.

[viperdsa]

So is that the height that they are set at by Stasis, or did you lower it a little more?

[yload]

yeah what is your height front and rear floor to fender?

Thanks

[AudiWxGuy]

That's the height that STaSIS recommends. I believe they set the fronts, and then you have to set the back to be 1/8 of an inch higher.

[PannikAttk]

Yeah, go lower if ya can...the front looks great but the rear looks like stock sport suspension height.

[AudiWxGuy]

Not sure. I'll have to measure next week once it settles a bit and I have the car aligned. Let me also say that pictures over exagerate everything. In person the car looks low. The pictures make the gaps look bigger than they actually are. Like, if you see an A4 with Sport Suspension it looks better in person than in pictures. I'm going to wait to do any adjusting for a while. Probably until I get new wheels.

[ImitationOfLife]

The stock wheels look much better on the car with a drop.

[AudiWxGuy]

They really do. I also may get some 8mm spacers for the front, but I'm still unsure about that.

[viperdsa]

What's the wheel gap in the front? It looks like it might be one finger width, it's hard to tell with the shadows.

[AudiWxGuy]

Something like that. Might be less. The top of the tire is almost under the fender.

[Sharkfin]

now its time for some new wheels....

[AudiWxGuy]

In time my son, in time. I think the stockers look okay for now. Got to put the car through some turns...all I can say is wow. Handling is so much better. The car feels like it's on rails. The oversteer is reduced a lot. There is virtually zero body roll. What a good investment. Now, I want to chip it again.....grrr
