    Here my beast comes, at last!

    This is just what I wanted
    A very first thing to do is to fix an ultra-sensitive radar detector

    The correct answer is...Stock 19" rim.
    Just a moment for interior pics.

    Have you driven the car yet? How does it compare to your GTR?

    You should be very happy. The car looks great.

    Thanks everyone. Awesome car it is!
    Although heavier than GTR, the acceleration of RS6 is compatible to or greater than that of my ex-GTR (R34, chipped, estimated 380PS) . The stability is way good, thanks to its weight(?). Just after a pleasant drive, I became a slave of this beautiful beast.

    In night drive, I felt my headlight alignment seemed to be a little lower (didn't reach the far side). Can anyone teach me how to fix it?

    I've done this at the dealer as they have a special tool via VAG to align the headlight xenon and its perfect since then. I'm not sure if you have a VAG will be able to do it or not!!

    Ahhhh,

    You sold the R34?

    A part of history that car. Did you see the pics of my Celica GT4? I can post one here along with my MA70 turbo.

    Here is my GT4 Celica.

    Enjoy the RS.

    vangelis, thank you for the information. I'll go to the nearest dealer.

    DHall1, Your GT Four is so beautiful and additional gauges look like factory-made special and fit well.
    If I go to United States, I am going to visit you and beg a test drive for your GT Four

    :-)

    The gauges are not for looks.

    Wide band A/F
    EGT
    Boost
    Fuel pressure

    In the glove box are the rare HKS tuning components I imported from Japan. You could never buy them in the US. Full fuel and timing control along with boost and scramble boost kill buttons. :-) Under the hood is the big turbo and fuel system to support. All on the stock block and cyl head. Never been apart.

    Wait till I post the pics of my MA70. :-)

    Very nice to see your RS6, and how international this forum is.

    Sapporo - I love the beer as well

    I know Sapporo mainly from the UK. For some reason I like the big can but I haven't found the can in Sweden yet. Together with sushi it's perfect!

    Whenever you come over, please let me know. If you are in Stockholm I will take you for a tour. If you require any help, please let me know.
