Default FINALLY an owner!

Hey everyone! Been lurking around, admiring everyone's B5 for some time now, in HOPES to finally get one of my own. Well, I did. I JUST purchased a 2002 B5 S4 on Saturday, Sept 20.

Mods list includes:
Audi RS4 Grille
H&R Adjustable Coilover Suspension
Ecode Headlights
Braided Stainless Steel Brake Lines
Borla Cat-back Exhaust
18" BBS RXII Wheels

I absolutely LOVE it. I bought it with 36,700ish miles on it. I will be taking more pics this weekend, but here's a few to get started.

... I need to do some suspension adjusting this weekend. Does anyone know how to get in there and wrench on it without removing the wheel? (fix some rubbing) Also, by "adjustable", does that also mean adjustable in how stiff they are as well?

And I HAVE searched... Still cant find the good fix to the cruise control not working issue :P

Sweet car, santorian is a nice color and you have real low miles.. jealous....

find the wrench here: http://www.ecstuning.com/stage/edpd/...y=Coil%20Overs

I think theyre only height adjustable....

Also you should hardwire your V1! Use the Avant rear wiper fuse then run it up the A-pillar and across the window. I had mine right below the rear view, but have moved it to the right of the mirror. Best part is you get your powersocket back and theres no cord mess.

Heh, thanks guys. Yes, I love this car. I went to work early the other morning not happy about being up a little early. Walked outside and smiled, "Yeah, I get to drive THIS to work "

The V1 isnt mine. It was owned by the guy I bought it from. I WOULD like to have one though, but I'm still skeptical if it's going to really help.

Yes, I'm already addicted to it. I keep saying that I'm going to wait on X-mod or whatever, but man, it's just a question of money at the moment.

For everything on it, I got it for 22k. I thought it was a good price considering the mileage, its bone stock, and had a few extras (that I was probably going to add anyhow). I still debate on whether I like the rims. I go back and forth on it, depending on what angle I'm at when I look at them. :P But yeah. VERY well maintained, and was taken care of.

Thanks for the link for the wrenches. About those... Can I buy them at a local car parts store or is this a special order kinda thing?

Very nice. I have 38K on mine and it's a 2006, so definitely nice mileage on that thing. Great color, too. Oh, and I like the rims :-)
