has anyone ever ran a rear diffuser on the s4???

[slammed_nogaro]

this is the only other one ive ever seen before...

[RogueStatus]

never seen one but that looks like terd.

[highPSI-S4]

It is common in the JDM scene, but that is the first i've seen on an audi. If they could make it look alot better- maybe it would become the new IT mod. But then again it would be called rice.

[sixfiveoh]

never seen one but that looks like terd.

...

It's a race car dude.

That's the 034 VR6T car.

[Chknkatsu]

I'm sure it would look nice if done right, I saw a M5 today with one and it looked very nice. The picture you posted looks like a 16 year old did it in his garage...

no shit. i said it looks like terd. slammed nogaro seems to be a daily driver and i never said the car pictured was or was not a race car. its in a trailer,with no plate,no exhaust,and a rear difuser...yeah sure looks like a DD go back to the a4 section.

if they made one that would fit an exhaust and look a little nicer,maybe itd be appealing to some people. but anything different will always be "rice" in some peoples eyes. they look sick on s2000's and subarus,etc...

[highPSI-S4]

I would like to see a rear diffuser on a widebody B5, that would compliment it the best in my opinion.

Or get some pics of that same car from other angles.

[wdbdy2000s4]

I'd like to see a more subtle difuser ona widebody B5, like the one on the quattro 25th anniversary s4's.

When does "funtion" ever need to look pretty?

[RogueStatus]

function usually equals ugly haha. i'd like to see a more subtle one on a b5.

[Brilliant]

dude, where is my flashloader?

[BastardS4]

i like it.

i wouldnt mind some downforce without ricy wings and other uglyness.

[4RingsCircus]

No

Well I think if it was more subtle it wouldn't actual do anything, which means it is then being done for looks only.

[audispeed]

done right a diffuser/undercar aero also does wonders to reduce drag

[mike-2ptzero]

Yes. So does sealing off the bottom and nose of the car, but how many people are doing that?

[RogueStatus]

less drag equals better gas miles...tell the hybrid owners

Excuse me, dipshit? I was pointing out that it serves a purpose. It's a stock body A4 with a diffuser and the plate off... is that so clearly a race car? Perhaps if you've never seen it before, you wouldn't be aware of what it is. Maybe OP tracks his car and is more interested in the performance aspect, and not solely into looks like hardparkers such as yourself.

Oh man, I'd better get back over there since you told me to. You're so prestigious in your 8 year old beater.

[RogueStatus]

oh jeez,another badass in a a4. just stop. were not taking this any farther.

back on topic.

[sixfiveoh]

Oh man the type of car you drive totally defines the person you are. Good logic, douchebag.

Get the diffuser. Step outside the box and try different things.

[RogueStatus]

ok...the type of car i drive? a stock looking silver s4? right and you,an a4 with chip and exhaust...super.

i never said not to rock one,im all about different things. i dont care what people say about MY car. how many times do i need to explain,TOO EACH THEIR OWN. do what the fuck you want,it doesnt bother me. diffusers look badass on the few cars ive seen them on,and serve a purpose. someone posts the 034 track car and is contemplating doing it,why not,its different,go for it.

...so what are you arguing? that we're both agreeing its a track car.ok. that the diffuser is different and he should do one if he wants to.ok. maybe just the fact that you...nevermind,not gonna keep going.

[MacDaddy]

we don't need it because our S4's don't have Vtak.

which, a rear diffuser that has no function?

RICE! the epitome of rice if you ask me

aimed at you Eurosteez

haha oh yea? i have a none functional diffuser on my car? youre right

sean dont you live in MA? or are you not the same sean18t as on AW?

[sean1.8t]

haha oh yea? i have a none functional diffuser on my car? youre right

i guess you didn't get it.

i'd like to see a more subtle one on a b5.

i hope you do now.


and no, not the same

[RogueStatus]

guess your jokes arent funny. yea,i wouldnt mind seeing a more subtle one. but then i was corrected by mike saying it wouldnt serve any function. but im not getting into a "rice" argument.

i bet slammednogaro didnt expect he'd start yet another argument thread haha

[michael66899]

Not much function, but I always thought it would look good with the lower part molded to a WB B5 Bumper...Anybody wana try?

[4RingsCircus]

Uh.... that..... actually looks pretty good on THAT car. I think the B5 has too many curves and angles to look right, dunno. I can't afford any appearance stuff yet. Flat broke from spring tuition, and car/holiday stuff.

[RogueStatus]

examples of cars they look good on (function and appeal)





(in my opinion) for the haters haha

[offroader1006]

really?

you think that looks good?

and btw, you are comparing mass produced diffusers to 034's, made to work, one-off, diffuser.

it seems some people are worried about being pretty. i never was into pretty.

i gotta go dry the glue on my S4 badges.

[RogueStatus]

yep. my opinion,it looks good. better if it had single exhaust and the diffuser was fit a little better.

im not hating on 034's. its made for function,not to look pretty.

[MacDaddy]

those first two are going to catch more air than anything.

a proper diffuser has to seamlessly cover the bottom of the car without gaps that would allow for trapped air, if you ever see under a lotus elise you get the idea.

those first two look functional, but really are not, im willing to bet its the same story with the S2000 there too.

[mike-2ptzero]

So your car is on a rack while driving on the street or racing?

[glenb8]

15 years later and here we're. People back then asking if diffusers were a thing now they can install formula one inspired rear diffusers.
