ruh roh, do i sense a stage 3 s4 in the making? have you put the car on a chassis alignment machine? that subframe has got to have taken a beating like others have said.

might as well get it running and pull the motor for a major overhaul lol

 

yea but its an easy thing to grab, i heard people at auctions like to grab smalls off the cars as they are going up to the bidding floor

not stage 3 till probably summer time.
Subframe looks fine. everything looks fine except the lower arm and some bolts, but well have it up in the air tomorrow to have a better look.

 

I haven't heard of auctions where you don't have to go through a broker? Do you have a license to buy, go with an agent, or just a cool auction?

 

my dads friend has a dealer license so we bought it with him.
but for the most parts its, have cash in hand ( you need to leave a 2000 deposit min at the door), also pay $20 entry fee and youre free to bid.

 

Thats a sick find

 

Thanks hope to be driving it soon.

 

Nice, pick up, now you gotta get your SN on AZ changed.

 

I wouldn't necessarily agree that the subframe being damaged is an issue... I had a very similar accident but my control arms were bent more than those, and my subframe alignment was basically spot-on according to the alignment holes.

Definitely worth replacing the control arms and TRE at least on that side, but if you go with FCP Groton it wouldn't be much more money to get the whole kit, and swap all the control arms and TREs.

 

haha yea, i dont think you can though.

I got the 13 piece kit from FCP so i think itll come with everything.

 

Sure you can, I was McGovs1.8TB5 both here and there. You have to post in the issues/bugs section requesting a change. You can only do it once though.
