Obama gave poor people cars.

 

Haha, plus rep for that! Priceless.

 

Oops, can't rep but still funny.

Yeah, Dublin is kinda sketchy. My car got broken into at my dad's (right up against Muirfield) without a mark or scratch (99' VW) and my sister came out of the house just as the perp was sifting through a CD book. They just dumped them all and took off into the woods. The Dublin PD said they probably had a "key catcher" or something that receives the wireless signal and stores it. Hmm... I've never been armed at gunpoint in Dublin though.

I've been seeing a few of them around too. Can't blame them for trying to get in because of the cold, but castle doctrine pwns you spiders!

 

That's nothing a size 11 won't take care of, just don't slip on the goop.

After squinting to read some of those numbers, what does "lane change" mph mean?

 

They do an "emergency lane change maneuver" and record the speed.

And I'll bet it's still reliable as shit. Good work Porsche.

I'm pretty sure the PS3 exhausts out the back. You should at the very least cut out the back of the shelf behind the PS3, before it overheats and yellow-lights on you.

For $75 sure maybe, if I couldn't afford something better. For $300 why not just get an AK?

 

You can tactikewl mall-ninja them up all you want, but it's still an SKS.

You again?

 

I'd think I might like that big opening in the front better if it had something split it horizontally... (insert mom joke)

 

Did they pull some jagged-stealth from the newer lamborghini designs, or are thhey just melding into the same company?

And 4 of the top 10 are in California! Watch the hell out!

Awhile back I remember a trust was the hot-ticket NFA route, but either way you might want to contact an attorney to get your paperwork squared away. Selling ammo is dangerous stuff man, I can't imagine the liability would be worth it.

You could do something cheap and basic with a low-tier parts kit (model 1, etc) for closer to $600 pretty easily. If you want to get good stuff you could go with a bravo company upper kit, which will run you about $100. Either way lowers can be had just about anywhere for about $100 shipped, and the parts to finish it will run $80-$120 depending on what kind of stock you want, etc. I'd figure $600ish for a cheapie plinker, or $750ish for a nicer well-respected make. If you semi-build yourself, which is super super super easy.

 

That's off the top of my head, the prices may have changed a bit in the last few months.

Psh, their lamewad ray guns are only one-hit kill until level 20 anyway, so good luck with your D-cell batteries!

Oh please start naming them all! And that could very well be because I actual fix, replace shit when they go bad (Axle ABS ring being the exception, but who needs ABS anyway, and bumper is a little fucked but I'm not about to buy a new RS4 bumper)

 

I'll help you, things that I replaced because they failed:

 

1) Valve cover gaskets

2) Clutch pedal sensor

3) Aux water pump (just needed a new seal but i replaced it anyway)

4) EGT sensor

5) O2 sensor

6) Water Pump

7)......that's all I can remember

 

Okay, I don't have time to get out the list, but off the top of my head I'll add a few... Axle, brakes, control arms, tie rod ends, axle again, whatever hose that was that ripped, gauge cluster, axle yet again... wheel bearings...

Well everything you mentioned has been because I wanted to, upgrades, not because they failed. I still have my original k03's in my garage, they are in perfect shape even with over 100k miles on them. Things I've replaced because they failed have been gaskets and sensors, and water pump.

 

Oh is that all? Bullshit! Don't even get me started. You've replaced more parts on your Audi in any given year than I have in the last 8 years I've had my S4. ha!

 

And BMW? Please. The biturbo 6's are blowing turbos and cooking oil too, just like the 1.8t and 2.7t Audi motors did. Hey BMW, welcome to 1998. Glad you could join us. Oh what's that? You went to a single turbo setup now that might last longer? Good for you. Thumbs up for being proactive.

My car is pretty simple, its nothing more than a chipped RS4...on e85. RS6 turbo's are K04's as well, and they make my kind of power on pump gas. Those are nothing more than chipped RS4's with bigger exhaust housings.

 

My car's oil change interval is 5000miles, and I do it somewhere between 3 and 4K miles just because it's making past more than stock power. So no way in hell will I go 10k miles, but if I had a B8, which has an interval of 15K, I'd be glad to go 10K miles on it.

 

The B5's problem now is that it's a $40K+ car, that can now be had by people working at BK. Shit's not going to get taken care of properly, and those people will bitch about it because it costs more money to maintain than the 83 corolla they had before it.

 

All good points. I don't think your car is simple. You have replaced just about everything except the long block. Do I really need to detail what you've done on your car? Fuel pump, injectors, MAF, airbox, turbos, intercooler, BPVs, turbos again, charge pipes, clutch, downpipes, etc. etc. 15 other things I'm missing. I would consider simple to be or chip/intake, or something that can be done in a day's work. Not something that takes a shop a week.

 

Back on topic though... Looks like a nice little car, but it will be way too expensive for me. Seems to me like the v8s have been far far far more reliable than the 2.7t ever was. Just gotta do the timing chain tensioners at 100k.

I don't know, Chris's "simle" K04 car makes 450s awhp...

 

I don't know how "simple" I'd call his S4. Plus, he's on e85. Most K04 cars make 350-375 awhp.

 

You know Audi doesn't give two shits about how long this motor lasts once it's out of warranty. With how badly they got burned on the 1.8t/2.7t, and how the 2.0t is going, it wouldn't surprise me if this motor had issues too. They're spec'ing long intervals because it makes it more "green" and in some cases they pay for the oil changes. If 10k mile oil changes were all hunky dory on high-boost high-output street motors, then why don't you give that a try for 200k miles and let me know how that works out?

And yet the fastest C5 RS6 will still get it's dick kicked in the dirt by any number of simple stage3 B5 S4's...

 

Those are two very different cars, and is therefore a grapefruit-to-coconut comparison.

 

Also, I disagree. a "simple" stage 3 b5 makes what- 375 awhp? There's more power to be had with the 4.2. I'd say about 8/6ths more power.

by my house..

 

By your van...

 

There's nothing up here NW of Columbus. Not even rain.

That "less manly" motor makes more power than the V8 does, in stock form. Not to mention the tuning possibilities will be through the roof. Only one of the reasons why the B5 S4 is still more popular than the gas gussling, untuneable V8 S4's.

 

Wait, what? They're going with a turbo 5 that's 340+ hp? Oh yeah, that's not going to have turbo failure. Especially with their retard-assed 23k mile oil-change intervals. Yikes! I better invest in borg warner now.

Recommend bi-turbo V8. If a turbo 5 is good, a turbo 8 is better. It's just your 2.7 with 33% more awesome!

what?

 

Psh, you would settle for a car with one engine. Lame ass.

 

I'd be all for a smaller motor in a smaller car, like the TT-rs. But once you put a sexy V8 in there you can't go to a smaller, less manly motor! I mean, that's like having a 302 in a mustang, and yanking it out to stick an sr20 in there! A week before Drift Wars!

Also, wtf are they doing taking out a sexy V8 to stick in a smaller 5-cylinder? I don't like that idea honestly. I would have like to see them go back towards the rs6 motor in everything.

I'm sure it will come with all those things...except the oil cooler will probably be oil to water to air, which is far superior to just oil to air.

 

They'll probably fail it all up with a dsg-only option or some other lameness.

 

In before "OMG Audi nutswingerz! Lolz mad tyte yo!"

It has

 

Way cooler than anything mentioned so far

 

Needs locking rear diff. And carbon fiber trim. And a real oil cooler.

Needs more 5-cylinder.
