I second this quote :race:

Ummm I'm thinking $20-40k in parts and labor easy....so much of the car is destroyed, even bodywork/panels/paint alone could be $20k. Guessing it will go for around $40k, interested to see....

Still in if we can get a plug and play radiator for the auto config...thanks!

Yep, with parts and labor by a skilled indy mechanic figure to be in the $10k ballpark, tune also.

Sounds good, thanks for going over all this. Cost is just fine as OEM is now going for around $1,250-1,500. My concern is it seems like the first guy that got one had to weld on his own fittings, as...

Maybe I read it wrong before, but Wizard already has made the auto spec radiator. So I'm in 100% if we can get a few people, Mark not sure if you want to organize the manual and auto group buy, or...

I'm no expert, but I've been through a few transmissions, and it sounds like your clutch plates are shot, they don't have any friction left on them to hold. What was the fluid like when you drained...

Mark,

Here's the info to the FB site and post, by George V, March 24th 2020. It's a bit of a scroll but all the comments and interested parties are there.

Group is Audi RS6 Builds and...

Sounds good, just wanted to check as the other guy was rounding up a good amount of folks from some FB groups, the more the better I figure to make it happen and reduce the price.

I'm in, thanks!

Wasn't this being organized by the guy who just got one put in his car?

Hey great to see it in the car. Looking forward to the group buy as the OEM's are almost impossible to get in the US and crazy priced now around $1,500...I should have bought one five years ago for...

Great work digging up those numbers. I really thought more Mugello Blue with black interior were bought. Add to it I've got the carbon inlays, although most ebony interiors do it seems. I'm guessing...

TCU tune has always needed soldering of a new chip, unless that changed?

I ended up swapping back to the 255/35/19. Michelin has a no questions 60 day exchange policy which was very quick and easy.

The 265/35/19 is a very bulky tire, even at .3 to .4 inches taller and...

Look forward to hearing how it turns out, yea that's a good price jump. The only issue with the stock radiator is the plastic connections for hose fittings, mine had a small crack under freezing...

Damn, very clean. You've got one of the best examples of this car, tastefully updated. Thanks for sharing!

Looking into the group buy from Wizard also if it happens. He was saying around $800 which would be much cheaper. Damn the OEM price has gone up. I was looking 4 years ago and it was $950...

Yea it's a bit of an odd one. Funny, I got in the habit of never taking mine out in the wet and moved into garage collector mode, but got a new office and my truck was a pain to park down there so...

Ah, I should have mentioned I've always had the center diff "grind grumble" when turning full lock or close to it on dry or wet pavement. I've heard it's fairly typical, varies some but tires could...

So maybe an issue, maybe not. Never noticed this before, started to park in a city garage with multiple levels, and when my tires are wet the car jumps and skips roughly around the corners going up...

Why is the motor trans getting pulled, none of that maintenance requires it?

Also to do; Bufkin oil-coolant pipe, cam adjust pads (crack over time, not just mileage), cam seals. List of stuff on...

Thanks for the confirmation. My car must sit just low enough to rub due to the Koni yellow struts. I measured the new 4S and it's actually exactly to spec, 10.4 inches wide. I think once I grind the...

Cool, thanks. I can see how that nub point sticks out and is probably fine to grind down a bit, still not the biggest fan of doing it but seems fine.

I'm going to get into the shop Friday to measure the tires, but here's a thread from a Beamer forum (I know, I know...) discussing the same thing. The 4S is a bulkier tire per the same measurements,...

If Muggy wants to put a list together, I'll add it to the maintenance section on my website. Cheers
