Re: Installing Lowering Springs

Changing the springs yourself with DRC still all connected is difficult at best and only contemplate if you are totally comfortable compressing springs and disassembling the strut arrangement in the front wheel well. You do not need to remove the upper arms at all, but is easier if you remove. When ...

Re: Daytona Grey Goodness

Hi Ben, Great write up on the brake refurb. I am doing new rotors front and rear myself at present. When you re-fitted the rotors back onto the hubs, did you put a smear of grease between the two surfaces to stop the rust coming back? Hopefully the coilovers are a little easier to raise at the back ...

Re: *wanted* How to discharge and remove DRC system

I also used the stasis instructions when I installed my KW lowering springs. I had a DRC leak sous plates and removed front struts completely to install. I also did adjustable upper control arms at same time - very worthwhile, I have done it twice now with the new SPC Motorsport version transforming...

Re: My RS under the knife..

I have also fitted the JHM full exhaust and the sound is awesome. Except on cold startup when the standard tune has the car sitting at 2000 rpm for what seems like an eternity. It must be the natural frequency for the system as it is a very high volume boom. At idle it is a discrete burble and highe...

Re: KW COILOVER LOWERING KITS. B7 , B8 , C6

Hi Grizz,

I would like to join the group buy, if you can supply me a set to Australia.
I have sent you an email, if you could respond when you get a chance.
I think I also need a new left rear DRC shock for the B7 RS4, if you can supply me this also?

Thanks,
Greg

Re: Unit20 offering cheap KW lowering kits

I am keen on getting a set of these too. I am just waiting on an email reply from Grizz to see if he can send me a set to Perth, Australia. I think I also have a stuffed left rear shock, so hopefully he can supply me with a rear DRC shock also. Will you guys be buying a set of adjustable upper contr...

Re: More goodies for the RS *Pole positions now in with pics

Hi Sonny,

I am also looking at getting some 18" OZ racing rims for my RS4. I see there are plenty of 18x8, but would prefer 18x9 to take bigger tyres.

Have you any advice on offset/width/tyre size? I I am keen to fit a dunlop direzza 03G, or Advan A048 semi slick.
