Good to see you on here Pete. Big fan of your B5 RS4 Avant.

Its been a pleasure watching this car being brought back up to its former glory. Definitely keep this thread updated with the latest on the car.

Phenomenal car dude! I had a highly modded B5 S4 here in Canada, but I lust over the RS4 so much. Unfortunately they were never offered here and it's 15 years until being able to legally import one.

Hi Robbie,

Played around with a couple things

New shoes OEM RS6 19's also installed the Rear sway bar








The sway bar has done wonders for handling as too the Eagle F1 ASyme 2's as well

Looks beasty with the RS6 wheels Pete. Keep up the good work. Was it easy sourcing all the interior door grabs and trims?
Immaculate paintwork :O

Is there much less under steer and more balance?

Love the rs6 wheels on the rs4 fill out the archers a bit more way easier to clean, wasnt to hard just keep my eyes out of the uk forums.

before the car use to want to under steer now it feel a lot more planted and over steer is an option

[ppoida]

Wow I love polish and Wax!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



















Does any one have a black thule roof pod they want to sell or any thule pod??????
