Tonks's 80 2 door quattro RS4 Tourenwagen

So today I had the box out again!!!! Raymor off the S2forum has an RS4 engine and gearbox so he kindly made a rough template of the crank position sensor location. So to make a mount I first cut a lump of aluminium off a solid bar I had lying around. http://img.tapatalk.com/5169ef9c-dda2-cb3f.jpg Th...

Tonks's 80 2 door quattro RS4 Tourenwagen

Superb. I guess an inline 5 with a big hairdryer on it would've been more genuine but that is going to sound brilliant as well. No to keep it original it would have to be a 1.6 na that revs to 9000rpm And I have done the i5 turbo conversions to death, so the V8 was the only option to stand out and ...

Mice have eaten my car!!!!!

May be worth asking the dealer if they can add a Rodent Repellor System to your car.

It was a factory Audi option on the Audi S2

Great stuff, take it you've seen this... http://www.s2forum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=26537 Also if you're ever in the Aberdeen area with the RS4 engined 80, do let me know as I'd love to see it! Yes that is Hamish, he has made a beautiful job of his car. I supplied his rear wings from my moulds. :)

They are currently standard, however I have been doing some work on some B4 legs so I can retain the 4 stud wheels and I can use 4 pot genuine sport quattro brakes :)

Hang on, did you say SWB Quattro? Is that an original SWB shell? Awesome build, can't wait to hear and see it when the engine is fully up and running. You going to custom fab an exhaust? No it's not an original shell it is my very long term project. I have built this car including the shell over th...
