New owner to 01.5 S4

[nateS4]

Well, I can finally live up to my name now. It's a 6spd, has 120k on the odo and has HAD a lot warranty work done as well as the t-belt/water pump. It's stage 2 , which is nice. Anyone in the Baltimore area I'm always down for a cruise.

[skunkoncrunk]

Congrats! Looks clean!

The only thing I don't like... the exhaust. Not a fan.

[SoEvoL]

[s42k5b]

yeah, I would have used a muffler that looked stock, but it's 3'' cat back.

[VonPooper]

can't be rollin around with single tip son.

[KryptoniK01]

Very nice, welcome!

[nateS4]

The first thing I need to buy are tires. Any suggestions?? Kumho Ecstas are on it, and they are extremely noisy.

[speedracer9k]

Nice Imola, upgrading to KO4s? Yeah I am in Parkville some, and I work in Owings Mills. Just went down to Skyline Drive with some cats from Absolute Driven, I loved the way the car handled in the mountains.

[speedracer9k]

Yes to K04, K03s went bye bye. I work down in the Canton area, used to live in Owings Mills.

Hey man,

Nice ride. It does look a little low to me, especially the front. But some people like that look. I'd raise it up a bit.

Yeah I have the Kumho Ecstas on my car too, they are cheap and mine are real noisy too. They mainly got worse as they wore. Not sure what I'll get for tires next which will probably be later this fall, but probably something different the the Ecstas

Welcome to the B5 boys club... Car is in great shape, and you got to love the color.

No, mine is an 01.5, that one is clearly an 01 or older because of the badge.

And it is @ 90k not 60k, so no on two t-belt jobs.

[tike0rz]

Nice find bro! Welcome to the Nogaro club! Haha...kidding.

Few suggestions:
Put front S4 badge on RS4 grille.
New Exhaust
Tint
Raise it up an inch or so

Kudos on the front license plate filler plate too. Wanna trade? lol.

Yeah, I have only had the car for about 5 weeks and the tires are getting more noisy already, they suck for road noise, but handle pretty good when worn. As far as adjusting the suspension; it's a little low in the front for my taste, but they are H&R spring, so I can't adjust them. But with the Bilstein shocks it handles pretty good.

As far as the muffler goes, I would have put one on with two tips, but like I just bought the car and there are more important things (ie brake light was on for front pads, tires are almost worn out, rotors fad and are pretty thin).

Thanks for the props and for the welcome guys, and I'm always down for a spirited drive !

Haha, yeah, I am going to keep that tag off for as long as possible, and the tint..hell yeah, 20% in a couple weeks. I am picking up the stick on badge for the rs4 grille today at the dealer ($10). Unfortunately it cant adjust the H&R lowering spring

Yeah, I've had the car bout 5 weeks now. This is nateS4 from absolutely driven, this is Aaron right? Anyways how are the shirts coming along, I think seeing the wheel around the nipple area would be cool.

Beautiful! Super clean for that many miles! Got any interior shots?

I haven't taken any yet cause I needed to vacuum. But it is surprising clean and the leather is in great condition for its age. The only thing is the drivers floor mat has a hole where your right heal is. Apparently that is a common flaw, I tried to get a new set of S4 floor mats, but they are discontinued.
