Picked up a 1990 Coupe Quattro a couple of months ago. Came with a CF hood, likely 2Bennet coilvers, 5x112 hub conversion, and a pointlessly loud exhaust. Car is in rather decent shape, think it was mostly in Arizona for most of its life. Plan to do turbo, brakes, suspension, fix up body/paint.

Can't drive without music so the first thing I did was replace the headunit and also had to add an amp that the seller nicely ripped out of the car before delivery. -
Picked up 996 front brakes from a junkyard along with an instrument cluster that was sitting in a pool of ice and gauges with black faces. Placed a big order for pads, discs, front control arms, and B7 S4 rear calipers too. Still need to order braided brake lines and caliper bolts. Hope the hubs that are on it are the correct sizes for this...Attached FilesComment

They fit fine. I've only taken it for bedding the brakes and getting an alignment. Have to take for a ride and pay attention to the ride but so far was good. I'll take a pic of the ride height. Think it needs some adjusting to match the front and rear.Comment

Taken for a few rides and its been pretty great so far. Definitely need to raise the height a little as there was a loud band from a pot hold.
Also bought a 3B engine and starting the process of accumulating all the parts to do the swap. Missed the rs2 part out post by 2 weeks...Any spare parts appreciated.
