Moving to New Zealand. Want to get RS4 there.
Saw a RS4 at heathrow with Brembo 4 pot calipers with RS4 on them. The standard calipers ( 2 pot single sided.) really look dog.

Drove the M3 CSL about 3 months ago. Doesn't have that WHAM kick up to about 90km/h. RS2 feels faster there. Over 100 the CSL feels gruntier than the RS2. CSL suspension felt sharper and harder than RS2, but doesn't have the quattro driveability in the tight twisties. Loved the SMG gearbox. WOW imag...

I am planning on moving to New Zealand, and dont seem to be able to take my RS2 with me due to no frontal impact tests done on the car. I have looked at other possibilities when I get there, New S4 or RS4. But I really just want to keep my RS2. It just has some unexplained uniqueness over the other ...

RE: Re: RE: Air filter to MAF pipe (and cone filters)

Best way I found out, is driving barefoot, big toe on accelerator. With K&N small movement of toe is response. With standard you need to move your toe a bit more for the same response. Strange but works. I love driving the car barefoot, try it, makes the car faster?????????

RE: Air filter to MAF pipe (and cone filters)

I replaced my standard with K&N panel about 8 months ago. The car just became so much more crisper. I have no problem cleaning and re-oiling the filter every few months. I am so used to it as I do it on a weekly basis with my motocross bike. It also sounds slightly more throaty, but fine for the wif...

RE: Re: RE: RS2 transformed

When I bought my car, 105000km, I replaced strut top bearings, great improvement. Then I put on new set of rubbish tyres. Felt great, but as I started pushing car more I felt it needed sharpening up. I then replaced shocks with Koni's set 50/60%. Felt better, less harsh, more controll. Then I put in...

When you accelerate full throttle under load ( Uphill.) if the car has a slight splutter at top end of revs. 5-6000rpm. Time to change plugs.
