quicky1980 0 Posted March 23, 2011 nice choice n the RH ZW1's. Ive got a set in the garage that I need to get round to sorting. What width you going for? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue95 0 Posted March 23, 2011 nice choice n the RH ZW1's. Ive got a set in the garage that I need to get round to sorting. What width you going for? Going for 8" on the front and 8.5" on the rear.....dont want to start modding arches...yet lol I know alot of peeps have run them as et 35 and had no probs with coilovers, bit concerned though as my bbs rx (et35) were quite close to the collies with that offset and i had to space them.

quicky1980 0 Posted March 23, 2011 I was thinking of doing the same widths. Was even tempted by 8.5" all round. Seems a bit of a black art with ET's. Will play around once Ive got the wheels built up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stereoflaver 0 Posted April 7, 2011 I need to do this to my corrado. It looks so factory finish. Well done mate. Best get part hunting. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue95 0 Posted August 23, 2011 Right have started playing arround with the rims now, not sure if I am feeling the bling bling tho....... Test fitted: Also removed side strips...should have done it years ago!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
onestep 0 Posted August 23, 2011 I think the bbs look better. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue95 0 Posted August 24, 2011 I think the bbs look better. LOL - knew someone would say that...I agree, but the BBS just dont fill the arches, especially on the back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abdul 0 Posted August 24, 2011 The bbs are awesome but make the car look a bit skinny, the rh's will give it some muscle! You may need to roll the arches though depending on tyre choice... Looks good either way mate! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quicky1980 0 Posted September 25, 2011 Just tried looking at your previous posts for hints on the awd conversion but a load of pics are missing, any reason for this? Any chance you could sort it or maybe send me as many pics from the conversion as you can? pretty please? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BILLCOR 1 Posted October 14, 2011 Well I think you'll struggle to fit that lump in it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted October 14, 2011 mmmmmmm! I like the look of that, what's the story??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue95 0 Posted October 14, 2011 LOL engine is massive! surprised it fits in that bay! Needed a family car so we got a B7 RS4 Avant......nothing like whopping a porkas ass in an estate with ur misuss and three kids in the back :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coullstar 0 Posted October 14, 2011 Thought it looked familiar. It is a big looking lump but my B6 handled surprisingly well. Hope the fuel tank is bigger than the B6 otherwise you will be at the petrol station every other day!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wy906 0 Posted October 14, 2011 Needed a family car so we got a B7 RS4 Avant......nothing like whopping a porkas ass in an estate with ur misuss and three kids in the back :) Nice one! One of my favorite family cars! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue95 0 Posted October 14, 2011 The handling is superb, the car is lowered from factory with thicker arbs etc,when driving you feel like your in control of something much smaller, the DRC keeps it flat and the quattro system is superb. First time we had it on the motorway the third lane just emptied out, it pulls like a train all the way up to the limiter (tested on a track of course). Believe it or not fuel economy is not too bad if driven sensible :) Some pics from a recent meet: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Danny B 0 Posted October 14, 2011 Nice RS mate....you on the Audi scene then - those pictures at that meet look familiar - the Yellow RS saloon owner is a regular on RS246 isn't he ? EDIT : just noticed the white buckets as well :thumbleft: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
onestep 0 Posted October 14, 2011 Got to love the b7 RS4 yours looks lovely. Here is my blue on a road outside of Monaco.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue95 0 Posted October 14, 2011 Yep silver silk nappa audi exclusive interior, seen quite a few tbh. Wow onestep, the view and car look amazing!!! make me wish I was on holiday :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue95 0 Posted February 14, 2012 After many years of awsome ownership I have decided to hang up the keys of the Corrado. I have started off loading a few parts and will put the car up for sale on a few forums or possibly ebay, as it has to go. It will be a sad day to see it go, but needs must.

Jam.e.s 0 Posted April 4, 2012 Did you end up selling? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blue95 0 Posted December 7, 2012 Still around...pics to prove lol! After a patch of bad health....I did decide to sell the a lot of parts and tried to sell the C, just didn't have the heart to see her go tho. Anyway feeling nearly 100% now and even contemplating further engine work/running gear work in the near future (funds allowing of course!) Also started putting exterior back to OEM...must be getting older & wiser! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
