    Default tangcla's V8 Audi S4

    So I decided to venture into the world of V8 cars... and came back with this.

    New front lip, new brakes:

    Thanks guys.

    I've always had turbo 4s, and one inline 6, this is my first 8-cylinder. I have to say, it's quite nice. Totally different sort of enjoyment to a turbo 4 - I think the turbo 4 'feels' faster because of the kick mid-rpm range, but the 8 is just brutal down low with so much torque available on tap.

    Is on the to do list. Can't justify $250 for OEM Audi RS4 pedals so I'm just waiting for something to come along.

    Thanks Matt... Can't believe you went from Commodore to Skyline. It's no better, you know.

    If you say so. Daily, in the sense of better fuel economy? Not by much.
    But then again, I guess you just got a girly GTS-T, right? Not a manly GTR.

    Photos removed at moderators' requests - apparently I'm advertising by putting up a thread with photos of my own car with a watermark, even though countless other members have it

    But it's okay for people to advertise their detailing businesses? That doesn't make any sense now does it.

    Pretty sure people who advertise detailing etc have permission from Admin or mods...

    Also, from Exotics (Ferrari x2, Lotus, Maserati)
