I might be picking up a C4/urS4 for cheap! A friend just got orders to Ft hood (TX) and knows he will be deploing right after he gets there, so he is selling his car, CHEAP! He paid $3500-ish for it, not 100% on the year, 6 months ago, went to a school for 5 months a month after he bought it. I think it has 160-180k-ish, green (is it worth less?!) tan leather, manual, B5 replica wheels, tires are good, new slotted rotors/pads, a bunch of little maintance under the hood, looks to be "loaded"! Im woundering what I should look for, turbo, boost hose issues, trans, common rust areas and so on when I look at it later today? If I dont buy it, it will be HERE for sale in a day or two, for CHEAP!

Nice motors (I5 2.2l 20v turbo), same motor used (though modified) in the Dahlback "Golf" kit car monster, the European S2/RS2, etc.

Basic Vehcile info:http://www.audiworld.com/model/s4/93/93-s4.shtml

I would expect to pay ~2000-2500 for an OK car.

If you're going to find any aftermarket parts you'll find them through audiworld.com or audifan.com.

:icon_tup: great buy

Im stoked! I found the grill at LLTEK and TAP has a few things too! Wife says if I sell the jetta (and ALL the parts with it :frown:) I can go crazy with this car . . . Im keeping the jetta! However, I was looking at some turbo upgrades on 034 :wink:

LLtek and o34 are the sh!t!!
honestly i would sell the jetta and go crazy with the audi, like your wife said. but its your car and i dont have any input.

that k24 turbo has a lot of potential and o34 is a great place to tune it.

again great buy :icon_tup:

post pics too!!!!

just a chip and waste gate spring will do sooo much for that car, especially for that motor.

its not too much for the spring, but the chip is a major improvement :icon_tup:

good luck man :smile:

If you want 034 parts hit up INA I bet you'll get the parts for a bit less.

I found a chip/spring FS, $200! INA on vortex?
I NEED to get the jetta going again (before I go crazy!) or the wife is gonna force the sale!

I need to deal with some rust on the S4 too. I cant wait till we get some good snow in a vacant lot! HAHA

Went and put $40 in the tank . . . 1/2 full! Tried to fill the washer fluid too, 6.4l tank!

After driving it around a little bit, needs a few things . . .
Antenna
Speakers
Lock cylinders
Brakes are acting "odd" Im going to try and bleed them . . .

Other then that (and turbo upgrade, suspension, exhuast!) its good! I will get some better pics in the AM!
