My (maybe RS4) Avant Project Started !!

[Ken21]

Guys.....here is my project of my 00 A4 Avant and hopefully if things goes well it'll become a RS4 " look " avant

Anyway my avant it's a 1.8T AWT engine ( Euro-engine code ) with Tiptronic ( yeah i know i should get MT but it's my daily drive car and my gf drives it too so AT is the way to go )....currently done 85,xxx miles and cost me $10k

More info about this project :

Trying to build a avant that has a WOW effect and can be a head-turner car ( compare to cars that's in the similar price range $16k to $25k )

Currently sourcing RS4 body parts from germany so my goal is to build a RS4 "look" avant but of course i won't have the power to backup the look sadly but we don't have S4 avant here and RS4 avant cost $50k here . Not saying i can't afford it but just not worth it to me as i own an E39 M5 modded and been a BMW guy for along time so this is just a project of getting my avant into a Very good looking daily drive avant instead of a super fast avant So enjoy and i'll update it as i got new mods on it

Oh...and in terms of performance.....i'll getting a K04 setup just to make my RS4 " look " avant go faster....lol


Enjoy and thanks for watching


Currenty Mod list : ( I'll update it once i got new mods on )

1. LED Lics. plate light bulbs
2. LED City light bulbs
3. Short Stubby Antenna
4. Nurburgring Stickers ^^ Must have for my cars
5. 6000K HID Low beams
6. 45% Windows tint
7. Panasonic 7" Flip-out screen headunit
8. De-badged

Sounds like you're going all out for this project, Ken!

Let me know if there are any parts you're short of, or think I can be more competitive on in terms of price.

[Ken21]

Siena...thanks for the reply

How good can you be on the parts's price ??? ^^

[t1demont1]

lets see some pics of the whip. Cant wait to see this, a4->rs4 conversions are sweet.

[Ken21]

Day 1 ( First day home....Stock as hell )

[Siena]

Looks a very clean base car to start with!

Almost seems a shame to slice her up!
Still, she'll emerge a damn sight better-looking than she does right now.

*Subscribed*

[pipe7284]

that is a clean avant you got there. cant wait to see the results.

[solowb5]

Is that santorin? Looks uber dark if it is. Which makes it look sexier.

[t1demont1]

Damn thats thing is immaculate for being almost 9 years old.

*suscribed*

So what made you go this route instead of the b6 a4 to b7 rs4 conversion?

[Ken21]

So what made you go this route instead of the b6 a4 to b7 rs4 conversion?

Thanks for the kind words. Anyway to me a B5 is better in terms of Exterior looks than a B6 and a B6 to B7 RS4 looks just doesn't looks right...so no B6 for me and i've think of a B7 Avant RS4 conversion but it's out of my budget for a daily drive car so B5 is the perfect answer and to me.....the B5/B5 RS4 still looks way better than a B6 and looks more unique than a B7 RS4 so easy answer is B5

[solowb5]

100% agree with you on the b5 rs4 is so much sexier looking then a b6/b7 one. When you see one in person it's just amazing.

[Stampy]

That is a nice car man. Like Siena said, almost a shame to work on it. It will be killer when you are done.

HK my home town, hopefully I will get to see this in person when i come back in March

[Ken21]

Time for some update :

( Added mods : LED lic. plate bulbs, LED city light bulbs , Short stubby antenna , Nurburgring stickers ^^ )

^are you a forum member in 6speedonline as well? The location of the pictures taken and Nurburgring sticker seems very familiar to one of the members there.

I'm a member of 6speedonline but i never post pictures of my either car on the forum

[Ken21]

More update : This time -- ( 6000K HID , Panasonic 7" monitor )










Nice Pure white output with abit blue and looks great with the sharp e-code cutoff

[Russell2686]

sooo when is this going to turn into an rs4 widebody thread

[LDetter]

^x2. This section is supposed to be for unique build projects, so far all i see is stuff that everyone else has done.

[Ken21]

Soon.....step by step bro

I prefer to get the car looks better step by step lol......But for those who can't wait....here is some teaser shots

[t1demont1]

poor rs4 :(

[Siena]

Nice one, Ken. An RS4 has to die, to build an RS4 sedan.

In my case though, I was too impatient, and ended up buying all my parts brand new.

[okar]

I love you city!! did you slice that up?? if so, you sure are brave. !!! visualize and you shall achieve!

[oldblu]

Did you rob Docurly?? (Just kidding) Where do you find all those parts cause they'd be very expensive at the dealer?

[fred2ka4]

Looks good so far. Can't wait to see pictures of the process as I like to see the steps as well as the finished product. I am one of those persons that likes to pay attention to details that no one else will ever see .........

[black8e]

Cool..very serious RS4 transformation.

I have a B5 avant TQM too and waiting some widebody parts for imitation as a RS4 replica.

Looking for the progress you had in November, you should make very good progress then. Show us your update.
