Well ive finally stopped driving it long enough to take some pics.... and after having it just over a week now im totally in love... i never knew a car could be so good out of the factory....

as one of my mates put it, this car is over engineered! it hits full boost by 1800rpm, no need for a hard launch, it does 0-100 in 5.5, even less with a chip... the recaros are beautiful, soo comfortable, havent been sore or restless at all, the standard bose sound system is great, the car handles so well i cant think quick enough to keep up with it yet, so throwable into corners, tad of understeer then hard on the gas and the car just sticks and pulls... the dash is soo nice to look at, white on red... just beautiful!

can throw 5 people in the car, still be comfortable, and the car still feels bolted to the road, safe, secure, and farken quick...

ill get it chipped shortly, as the chip improves the performance so much its like bolting a highflow into a stock rb25... just mental!

ill tint it, maybe a subtle exhaust for better breathing, chip, and just polish the body back up to immaculate..

really i couldnt be happier, ive had my fun in the skyline, ill get one to drift in a couple of years... and ill still float around here...

now for the pics!

Always loved Audis ever since my mate threw one around a long ass corner and the thing just stuck... scared the shit out of me! I thought we would either tip, roll, or slide... but nothing... she stuck... and there were like 4 people on the car too :)

He used to own a skyline too... hmmm... a pattern perhaps...

Yawn- its a 2000, one Doctor owner, highway kms, crazy service history... ive seen them from 30k to 65k depending on colour + kms.. they were around 130ish new, direct competitor to an M3

Sanger - i used to have an audi 90 before the skyline, i just dont have time for tinkering under the bonnet of the skyline anymore, it was getting old and i was just getting over it i guess... couldnt modify much more without going nuts.. this car dosent attract unwanted attention, is beautiful to be in, drive and look at.. ive got my motorbike for hooning now :)

Doof, thats what i experience, just masses and masses of grip, in the wet i just drive it as hard, no wheel spin, feels like im driving it on dry road (untill i turn traction off and get some massive oversteer driftooo!) so comfortable and quick, its made for 200kmh all day autobahn stuff

mass - ill come down a bit later mate gotta sort some dinner out, u can drive mine ill drive urs :(

An audi rs4 wagon is my dream car performance and practicality so i can understand completely!!!!! My damn r32 really needs a ski port or something.... every time i put my surfboard in my girlfriend gets religated to the back seat which she hates!!!!!!

never had the pleasure of driving a performance audi but if its anything like my mates m3 im sure it goes like s$%t off a shovel!!!!

ok madd.... except for the driving part :)

Nice one Ed! The interior shots look exactly the same as my old man's 1.8T, except his Recaros aren't as hardcore as the ones in the S4. Still got black leather though, with electric lumbar support.

I tried to push him to get the quattro with the extra 22kW and six-speeder, but he settled for a Tiptronic in "Agate Grey" - he reckons he's too much of an old man to bother with a manual box anymore.

The ride is bloody stiff at low speeds though, unless you've got a load in the car to take away the initial hardness. Once you're doing 60km/h or more it's alright though.

Punctuation my friend...

It's the difference between:

1. I had to help my uncle jack off a horse.

and

2. I had to help my uncle jack, off a horse.

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
