Audi RS2 -94 Swe

Details is important Suprisingly cheap, it was about 70€.

Not bad at all, i'm guessing tradition?

Looks stunning and love the attention to detail. How much was the hood insulation?

Very nice. This has got to be one of the best RS2's out there.

Nah, im not sure about that. Have a little list of things that needs to be fixed. Hopefully it will remain in my garage for many years. So really no rush to get them fixed, besides parts are getting rarer to find.. Anyway, thanks for the kind words

Hello! Been busy in the garage and with the car this week. First of all, the AC refill didn't went well. Big leak at the pipe between dryer filter and the coupe.. Will change pipe and dryer filter when the parts arrive. Why have any luck?

Forward to the better stuff. I got my new hood insulation with new fasteners, also new air guide as the previous owner planned to put a boost gauge in the ventilation but never did so there was a hole in the center..

Fresh insulation and cleaned plastic pieces, what a difference it makes. Fun to clean old plastics i think!

My old rear lights/middle piece had some cracks so they needed to be changed. Said and done. Cleaned and waxed the surface before i installed the new rear lights.

All for tonight, next thing on the list is to change the AC pipe and dryer filter. Hopfully i will have a working AC after that's changed

[s0_big]

Nothing special has been done to the car. Just driving at the moment. During the weekend i will have a guy look at the AC as i doesent work, sure there is no gas left, hopfully not a big leak.. Have ordered some small pieces that i will mount/change. Like the air ducts for the brakes "showels". Also i will change the heat/insulation under the bonnet as it looks sad. Today i reached 1200km with the car since i got it up and running. One funny thing that happend today while driving, a BMW Z8 tried to pass, from 100km/h to 200Km/h we were side by side, then he let of the gas. Dont know if he couldn't drive properly, looked up the Z8 online and has 400hp and 500Nm, so he should left me behind..
Don't think i drive like a car thief every time, mostly i just drive like an old man. But when these situations appear i can't resist to give it some throttle...

First wash since last year!
In Sweden we are of work tomorrow (with full pay). So today i washed the old lady to get ready for a little trip tomorrow. Nothing special, just thought i share some pictures out in the sun.

Remember so well first time i looked at the car in Stockholm, i saw metallic paint job and tought that it was a faulty paint on the car. Always tought that the RS-Blue was a solid paint, not metallic. Now i know better and it is a joy to have the car out in the sunshine. But at the time i looked at it the first time i was not that happy as i tought it was repainted in the wrong colour.. (The car has at some point recieved a new coat of paint)

Sounds glorious! Well done!

Yeah, happy with the sound. Thanks

Sounds good, if your worried it's a little too loud it will quieten down once it's coated with carbon. Report back to us if it gets quieter when you've had a good few run ins with Bikers.

Link to the Supersprint exhaust thread in case you didn't' see it.

I like the noise level of the exhaust. But I will get back with some moore feed back later in the season

Test drive of the new exhaust today! It's not quiet, think its almost louder than the old but with no disturbing resonance at cruising speed (Louder outside of the car). So i'm very happy with the exhaust system.
Recieved some new exhaust rubbers from Audi today, so first i mounted them.
Then testdrive in the evening sun. As the car now is more quiet in the coupe i hear my wheel bearings (that needs to be changed), but i will live with that this summer.
Here is a little video, i knew that the motorcycle would smoke me, but i couldn't resist to give him a little battle Enjoy!

Nice, from what i've heard they're supposed to be very good on the road.

Ok! Didn't find much info on the forum. But tomorrow i will find out
