Meet Blizzard, A4 Avant S-Line, Stasis Challenge Spec, ongoing build thread

[hyperunion]

The reason I logged in was to post this priceless gem found in the track photos by Got Blue Milk Photography.

10 points if you can identify the car that I'd just passed. In all fairness, I think his tires were still cold and he was taking time to warm them up... or I'd never have gotten by him.

Ding, ding, ding! Good eye!
Pretty rare to be sharing track time with a modern LMS beast.

Here's a shot I took of Jürgen Zürn taking auction winners for hot laps. He is a senior manager/engineer for the Audi Sport Customer Racing Program. Race car driver Dion Von Moltke was also giving hot laps as well.

Not much challenge getting by them...B7 RS4's and S4's are just slower traffic.

Mine are 19x9 ET40. But I do not believe they are available. I was told there would be no replacement available if these got damaged.

There is an Enkei RSM 9 in 19x9.5 ET45 that is a catalog item. I tried that one initially but it's spoke profile did not clear the Alcon Mono6 calipers.

If I had smaller brake calipers, I'd go with those.

Thanks for taking the time to read through it. It's been a crazy but fun adventure.

PM me your email address if serious about "Blizzard" and I'll add you to the short list.

Here's a shot my wife took from the grandstands of Blizz hunting during AudiFest.

Could you post up your tailights and the kit you used to get them to work?

I am itching to do the conversion soon.

I was part of one of Europrice's first GB for them. Alex provided the parts and DavidB8 did the coding remotely using a laptop with VCDS.

I love the change but you must make sure the wiring is CORRECT or you can fry your BCM module $$$$. Check page 3, led tail lights are around posts 80-85.

LMK if you have any other questions about the swap after reading that. Hope it helps

If I remember correctly it was something to do with being a prestige and having the power lift gate that had extra wires?

That's all I could think of after looking at BCM modules in a number of different Avants.

I know I had multiple wires with the same color combos. I let Alex know everything we found. The directions should specify the pinouts now so that you can just trace it to them before potentially tapping the wrong wire.

And it helps to have a pin removal tool during the install. Much faster than using a pick. just my .02 fwiw

It’s been years .. I stumbled across this thread again in my feed for some reason. Is Blizzard still around?
