Fourings 6-speed allroad Build Thread

Meow, did you just swap the alacantara part over to your OG door card? Also, are you doing the rear belts too? They are a pain. One last question, how close will the rolling diameter be between the front and rear?

I didn't, these were all minty and have sunshades so I didn't have to. I did that with my rear cards going from grey leather inserts to black though.

Rear belts will be done, haven't pulled them out yet and don't even know how yet. Hopefully it's not TOO bad. Remember I only have two rear seats so I don't have to mess with any belt in the middle (there is none).

Rolling diameter is .66% different. 285/35/19f 325/30/19r I case you're wondering, though I think I stated the specs before.

So you need to modify the hubs up front too? 285 is alot of tire up there......

Just to clarify everything, i'm having entirely new hubs made that will look OEM on the backside and accept Porsche centerlock wheels on the frontside. For now I'll be modifying my existing flares in a somewhat secretive way (all will be revealed). But I'm working on new, much wider carbon fiber flares for the future. My rear track will be wider than the front like many hypercars.

The 325s came in. I compared them to the factory 255s on the S6 then took them downstairs to compare to the 255s and 285s I ran last season.





Lol

Those tires are no joke. Im just waiting to see how you make it all fit the way you want. Dont have any doubts you can make it work.

I'll be modifying the factory flares as well as placing a spacer between the body and flare to push it out.

I need to measure inner clearance to see how much I need to widen the flare. If I had zero inner clearance I would need an extra 50mm to the outside, that is doable but I know I also have some inner clearance.


Once fitment is dialed in I'll be making some wide carbon flares. I'll also have a wider rear track like a 911. Will be real unique when done.

Thank you for the vote of confidence

Sub'd!

[4rings2turbos]

Thanks! Winter is winding down and I have a great many juicy details coming up.

[BasicA6]

wow that thing is amazing

[Chris_s1]

I've got a few questions man! Who'd you have do the ebrake cover? I'd love to get that done to match the headliner. Also, is the RS6 steering rack a direct swap into the sedan as well?

In love with your build man, amazes me every time I look it over.

[4rings2turbos]

Thanks guys :)

Lukasz (raggaman) did my handbrake cover as well and my Alcantara shift knob coming.

RS rack fits all C5s, they're all interchangeable. Very convenient!

[4rings2turbos]

Wheel specs are in and I'm too excited to wait until they're mounted. Everything is RIIIIIGHT on the cusp of happening and it's really killing me that I don't have any REAL updates (other that swapping Alcantara door cards in and some cleaner switches and rear soft touch ashtrays (exciting!) lol. Mintiness is very important...

So anyway, without further ado here is the final response to all the 'will those fit' questions: YES! And here's how.

Front, 19x9.5 285/35/19 et37.5 25mm spacer, final et12.5.
Rear, 19x11 325/30/19 et56.75 45mm spacer, final et11.75.

Measuring front with rear wheels that are moving up and unmounted tires for the rear. You can see how much wider the rear will become... I'm think/hoping this will be the meanest and most aggressive allroad in existence.







Sorry for the blurry pic, didn't realize it til later on.



It'll be a wee bit wider due to added spacing for clearance, but you get the idea.

[SteelyS6]

Allroad DTM edition!

[a4kamila6]

All thats left to do is build a 1500hp motor and a drivetrain that can handle it

Rocket Bunny Allroad??!???

[A Stupid Turtle]

What kind of flares are those? Is that riveted to the panels?

[happy2B5]

Me likey. Would want to see a wider angle view

[4rings2turbos]

Not rocket bunny either, someone on Instagram asked if I'm doing liberty walk, no to that as well no riveted flares and no flares that don't reach the rocker panels. No offense to these builders but that looks shoddy and unfinished.

Just givining you a bit of sh!t . I know your will look more finished, but you will need some biiiigg flares to cover those tires! As big as the rocket bunny's or what ever the other flavor is!

[4rings2turbos]

I know you are, not everyone will know that though. I suppose the proof will be in the pudding when it's done. :)

I'm kinda keeping in DL, but I'm developing spacers that go between the flare and the body so anyone will be able to go a little bit wider. Then I'll probably offer the wider flares I make for sale too. To begin with I'll just be running the spacer and modified factory flares.

I'm sending out wheels for widening today so we'll see it soon enough! Spacers will be ordered as well. Oh, and picking up finished seat belts tomorrow morning. Need to get my headliner here so I can put the interior all back together. (except for the sportsters)

[arjun90]

Wow, definitely looking forward to a video update.

[happy2B5]

I am liking Thads idea better with the integrated, just widened look. Can't wait

[4rings2turbos]

I have one possible trick up my sleeve, but it's beyond my skill level so I'll need to employ a pro to make it work. Will keep you guys posted on that.

[4rings2turbos]

A lot of Alcantara in this picture. Headliner, doorcard, steering wheel and handbrake, soon to be shiftknob too.



I have to wrap the center console trim pieces still. Been LAZY. But seat belts are done and installed :) love it!

[happy2B5]

Did you go with rs6 badging on the steering wheel? Thinking I just want sline badge when I order mine up

[4rings2turbos]

I did. My car is very RS 6'd and only becoming moreso. I'll never badge the exterior as RS 6, but the interior is for me :) technically it's not an S-line either, so if you deep down want the RS badge DOOOO IIIIIIT ;)

[happy2B5]

Wish I could just get an audisport logo. Maybe I'll ask him if he can do that.

Keep the updates coming...

[4rings2turbos]

Did Audi ever make one? He uses OEM badges, so if you can get the P/N then he can do it!

Looks like they did

[8520]

Seatbelts. So much want. I think mine might be white. No idea. Either way they need to be orange

[4rings2turbos]

Well there you go, perfect!

Same badge as preface lift b5 s4's for what it's worth. O

If you want to send yours to me I can do them for you. They're sew to have an SPI seam strength of 1800lbs and a total seam strength of 10,800lbs. This far exceeds Audis OEM seam strength. Regardless though I would still have to have a document signed stating that you're not going to put them in your car and use them as restraints and that I'm not liable if you do. If you're cool with that I'd do them in any color you want for a few bills.

As you might imagine. Seat belts are a low priority on a car that doesn't run lol.

Let me get it driving and we'll go from there.

[4rings2turbos]

Haha, very true. Offer is open.

Got your PM, I'll text you later today.

[4rings2turbos]

Interior is slowly coming back together, the rear belts are in, the headliner is mostly out, the front seats are sold and coming out tomorrow. Two more Alcantara door cards to put in, Alcantara headliner to go in, some buttoning up from removing rear seat belts and... SPORTSTERS ARE GETTING ORDERED TOMORROW!

These seats have the most beautiful bolsters and I love the integrated headrest.

Having a tiny bit of trouble deciding to do full leather or their synthetic suede inserts. My dash, door cards, steering wheel, headliner, shift knob and hand brake are all Alcantara or will be soon BUT my rear seats are full leather. Feel free to voice your opinions on that.

Also need to decide what color to finish the backs, Papaya or piano black? These seats look so much nicer with the backs painted:





Rear wheels go out for widening this week too.

[SteelyS6]

My vote is for full leather and piano black, but that's just me. Second choice would be full leather with papaya back. The interior on this car is going to blow people's minds!
