Heya Mate

how are the front and rear disks and pads? Any chance of getting the disks measured? I'm in desperate need - my disks are paper thin! Also - was this an RS4 V? Or a RWD model? As it seems the AWD and RWD versions have different disks.

Cheers

Aaron

Its a AWD I will get some measurements on the disks for you asap.

how much you want for the weathershield? Is it not broken at all, right?

I am still interested about the exhaust, have you got any pics when it is out of the car? I assume it is a turbo back one from the front pipe, right?

thanks

$50 weatheershield no cracks do have another guy interested also

exhaust is still in the car, may have it out next week..its only a cat back but i do have a front pipe i was going to use but not now for extra $100 so $450 for complete exhaust..

Wrecking 1998 Stage series 2 most parts available

I hope no one was hurt in the accident. Do you have the centre console vent garnish (grey in colour, above the climate control) for sale? Mine's cracked after some idiot (not me ) tried removing it, most likely with a crow bar and a mallet.

Hi mate, any chance you might still have the LHS black mounting arm for the side mirror (happy to buy whole side mirror)? I snapped mine in 2 while moving house... I'm in Brisbane and happy to pay for freight if you've still got it.

Hey mate

sorry sold it alreadya while back

    • Because there is still an engine underneath that turbo. PSI is not a measurement of power, it's a byproduct of resistance. What would be really decent is to have a CFM gauge on the output of a turbo to see how much it's actually pushing. 21psi (as an example) is not the same amount of air at 3000rpm as it is at 7000rpm, even if the boost controller is controlling boost at "21psi". The engine is inhaling and exhaling way more air at 7000 than at 3000, even if it's less efficient.
    • don't want anything more or less, I don't really understand why the torque still goes up to 6000-6500, while the boost peak is around 4000. if it only comes from the cams or from the boost controller etc.  
    • I'm not sure you understand the physics of what you are asking. Can you draw on the dyno graph what you want to have happen? I'm thinking this is a functional impossibility here, unless you chose a turbo literally so laggy that torque is at max at 7000rpm and artificially choked prior to that. Power and Torque are intrinsically linked. Power is just Torque over time. What you're really seeing in the torque graph is "Power per RPM" if that makes any sense whatsoever. You still get more power at 7000rpm than 5000rpm, because it is "power per RPM" and you have more RPM. at 7000 than you do at 5000. You still feel more powerful at 7000rpm. The torque graph will influence the rate of power increase per RPM.
    • Welcome!  If possible,  would live to see some pics. How long was it away getting the work done? Hopefully it feels like a new machine.
    • yes indeed the graphic format makes a visual difference but there is on average 120nm more between 4000 and 6000rpm on the curves it is not nothing. you are right, the cams influence the torque curve. I was able to chat with one of the Hypergear tuners, he confirmed that a boost control allows you to manage the pressure after the spool. the absolute pressure (psi) on the graphics is measured where? It seems that the cams affect the maximum pressure depending on the regime but I may be wrong.   not pleasant to drive before 4000? if we spend our lives between 1000 and 3000 rpm as you say then we might as well just run diesel turbos
