    difference between 1.8T engines

    Apart from quite a few cosmetics there is little difference between the AEB engine and AJL engine. As far as I am aware there isn't even any difference with the turbo. The KO3s which is supposedly fitted to the 1.8TSQ is a myth and as far as I can see the only difference with regard the turbo is...

    Can I.....

    You are right, it is an oem option. The oem hu does look better than most after market, but there are a few which blend in nicely if you are willing to search and pay the price. Becker make a very good hu for instance. Swapping hu's is simple, even with an after market one. Both are plug and...

    Is this the most expensive B5 1.8TQS for sale?

    I would say thats a fair enough price for a good example. I know it was a year ago but mine with similar miles went for 4K to the first person who looked at it. If I was after a standard good example I would definitely consider taking a look

    thinking of some changes

    Stunning looking car mate. Sadly reminds me of my last car. The wheels look outstanding. What finish is it on the wheels? Is it smoked chrome? Mine were anthracite, which looked good but nowhere near as nice as yours.....well done mate

    ooooucha beastie

    Can't see that bad welds would cause it to go like that. I have manufactured quite a few pipes with welded flanges before and pressure tested them to 3000 psi. Even when the welds give way they don't go like that LOL. Something must definitely have blocked your pipe. Maybe your cat (not the...

    B5 Boost Levels

    I would say the boost figures you have stated are very reasonable for a unmapped car. If I remember correctly standard boost would be around 0.8 Bar, which equates to about 12 PSI. Anyway its not about how much boost is generated its more important that it holds that pressure, hence the N75J valve.

    Query!!

    I take it you have checked the wheel nuts mate. Had a similar thing on my B5 and the garage had torqued them but the wheel couldn't have been sat right and I found all the nuts hand tight by the time I got home.

    Door mirror glass

    Have always got away with pushing it one way, getting your fingers behind it and pulling. Never had a problem doing it like this.

    Bit of a refresh!

    Your car looks great buddy. Mirrors and roof suit the car really well. Am not quite so sure about the grill. Personally feel it would look better with the Rs4 grill. Wheels also suit the car well.

    B5 door mirror problem!

    As far as I know the glass isn't different between the A4 and S4. The only change occurs with the facelift model B5 which has a different shape mirror cover. I am sure there is a post on here about this though and its something to do with the facelift covers being slightly more angled nearest...

    Scummy scrotes!!! "Angry"

    There seems more and more of this type of thing going on lately. WTF is wrong with the world or maybe its just the way this country is run. Maybe if the parents were held directly responsible for their kids actions then they might stop not giving two tosses what they are up to while they are...
