My Official Red 2005 1.8T Mod Thread

[CustomAvant]

You car looks so much better! Congrats!

[justin]

Awesome. My Recaros are going in tonight. We'll see how the black seat / platinum interior 2-tone looks. I am not entirely sold on it yet.

Awesome make sure you replace the fuse for passenger seat to a 30amp or else you will blow the 10 like we did hahaha.

How do you like the H&R coil-overs?

I'm going to ditch my STaSIS streetsports and probably give the new B&G RS2 coil-overs a try. I need full adjustability with the ability to change spring rates since the standard B6/B7 systems don't account for the added weight (cargo) I put in my car since its an Avant.

I love them... I mean its a huge difference from my stock suspension and it handles real nice with the S4 sways.

Looks nice.
I see you around a lot. Saw you today on 23 before and as you were turning at the light before the Hess station.

^Looks good, you planning on doing more to clean it up under the hood?

[Dan[FN]5857]

nice! I had that same color combo in my bay at one time, except my intake mani was flat black.

[justin]

^Looks good, you planning on doing more to clean it up under the hood?

Yeah as for what I am not sure right now. Maybe R8 Caps, Battery tray cover and that driver side cover. I am going to try something for my beauty cover that I haven't seen done yet so well see how that goes.

Worst cell phone picture ever

As of right now, I am planning to leave pretty early, like around 9-10, but Maxipaid (a4tune on az) wants to drink tonight which probably means I'll be hung the fuck over.

[Secnd2no1]

[Joey]

I heard this little bastard might be getting Ecodes and CF door blades next. I swear if this car doesn't win shows this summer...

^Beat up Angela?

[justin]

Ok so now some time to finally sit down and update this...

I acquired over the winter a CF painted hood. I can't believe the weight difference between the two. I absolutely love hood. It has functional hood pins which I wasnt sure about but turned out to love.

Since Joey let the cat out of the bag early I just put on carbon fiber s4 doorblades with the E-codes going in sometime this week.

I am close to being done in my mind although I have thought this before... I have secured a new job and if they can give me the hours I want I should be done before waterfest hopefully. Now that she is back on Summer wheels I am gonna have some proper photos taken by Culver and Muller.

Here are some quick photos that were taken by some people at Dubs at Defrost this weekend. I also installed a blacked out S4 grill...I am unsure if I like having the rings blacked out. I may swap the original rings back on. I will get more detailed pictures this week of all the mods I added on...

I also want to give a shout out to Sam and Shaun at Elite Motors of NJ for keeping the car going. I have tried the rest and settled on the best. They have fixed numerous problems and have a few more coming up that a) either other shops caused or b) other shops wanted to replace way more than what was needed. As many will tell you Elite is the only place and they trust to bring their car and after trying other places you can't beat the quality of service at EM.
