Re: Gearbox oil
I have recently changed the gearbox and diff oil too and I went with VW/Audi factory oil. You may want to research a bit more on user feedback on other Audi forums for aftermarket gear box oil. I understand most people don't have issues using aftermarket gear box oil. However, I read a few negative ...

Re: Coilover springs Help required.
Not sure what you are trying to achieve here Shockerboy... There is no need to second guess the spring rates on the Stasis kit as they are designed like that. The OP is a well-established member here and look at his build, he only wants the best for his car. I am certain he knows what he wants to ac...

Re: Koni shock absorbers
Shock/spring combo VS coilover, this has been debated many times and each has its own merits and shortcomings. I am sure most RS owners or car enthusiasts are well aware of that. What really amazes me is Shockerboy presents himself as an expert in the suspension field with over 30 years racing exper...

Re: Coilover springs Help required.
The Stasis coilover are based on Ohlins shocks/digressive valving and they are meant to be used with high spring rates. If you google Stasis/Ohlins you will find more specific details of their design and owners' reviews. In short, these Ohlins digressive valve/shock design has multiple oil paths and...

Shipping to UK via Fedex Express 3-5 days service is approx. GBP$100, which is quite reasonable I think.

Re: Occasional cloud of oil smoke on idle, mainly* on cold startup
I used to have quite a lot of smoke on cold start up and it could last upto a few minutes. Did a compression test and everything is fine, which rules out piston ring sealing issues. Recently, I changed the PCV valve, carbon clean and new injectors fitted and the cold start smoke has been reduced to ...

Re: Anyone interested in a set of new Stasis/Ohlins SL coilover?
Pics added. This set of SL coilovers are brand new uninstalled. The fronts shocks were assembled by PSI in March 2017 (have invoice) using new old stock parts and valved to 750lbs spring rate, same as original Stasis SL. The rear shocks are new old stock items so they don't need service. All hardwar...

I got them for my B7 RS4 but apparently they are also suitable for B6/B7 platform. These coilovers are not cheap but they are highly regarded in US with rave reviews. I can post more info and pic if someone is interested. IMG_5974.jpg IMG_5975.jpg IMG_5976.jpg IMG_5977.jpg IMG_5978.jpg IMG_5979.jpg ...

Re: Engine failure
OMG, that's the worst nightmare, sorry to hear that Marten. I hope engine is still rebuildable. Finger crossed mate. And thanks for the heads up. Just wondering, prior to the strange engine noise, did you notice anything abnormal? Eg. higher oil temperature etc? I can only image if the rubber parts ...

Re: DRC removal plugs
You will need 4 of these: http://www.brakeconnect.com/product/female-plug-m12-x-1 Apparently these female plugs are uncommon size and not easy to find. I have ordered a few of this plugs from this company but I haven't use them yet as I am still waiting for the "right time" to install the coilovers.
