New springs arrived today!

One day mate.

Thanks

All the best with the 5 pot. Wish I could own both, V8 D2 and C4 5 pot....half way there though.

I also bought a URS6 on Saturday which has Boleros also, they definitely suit the car

Which C4 are you putting the springs on ?

Ask Prj to chip the auto S6, I have one he did, it is great off the line with wot seamless changes to what the road ahead allows/permits.
Also great in heavy traffic, try using the outbox as a tiptronic, it takes a while to get the hang of it and become proficient, but it makes the auto almost an advantage when you do.

Enjoy, looking forward to the after photos.

When are you fitting some KW3s to it.

Hi bud,

The springs are for the 2.8 Quattro as are the new set of Boleros - hopefully.

Thanks for the info re the chip, I might consider contacting him. How does it work with fitting/programming etc?

What do you mean when you say 'try using the outbox as a tiptronic'?

Will definitely get some more photos when I get them and as for the V3's, not sure my wallet can stretch to that unfortunately...but I think the S6 will remain standard as far as the suspension goes, but might consider putting uprated parts as and when they need replacing.

Thanks

Any updates?

Lol, sorry for the delay. Hopefully we should be up and running by next week. Both the rear calipers were seized and I have been trying to find working units second hand but no joy there and I didn't want to fork out for the cost of them new.
So this is what has been the hold up, but I have decided to refurbish the calipers which are now done and being dropped off at the garage as we speak!

As soon as its done then I'll post some pics

I am suggesting that you start off in 1, and then click it into 2, and then 3, and only change into D if you're going quickly enough. Start in 1 is if you're keen to leave very quickly, starting in 2 will suffice for prompt departures.

When in traffic in 3, it is easy to click it back into 2 for better acceleration, without it kicking down in two 'sudden / jerky' jumps when you suddenly floor it in traffic while in D.

Hard to convey what I'm suggesting properly in a 'short' post. Try it yourself and see. I would say though that if you stick with it, you will be much better at it after a month of daily driving in city traffic, with continual improvement accruing after that.

Kind regards.

Don't see why people buy new units, when I complete seal kit costs just over a tenner and a bit if elbow grease and they look and perform like new.

Can't wait to see before/after shots
