so i went for a real test drive last night through some local canyons...aprx 10 mile run.... i couldn't believe it! The car handles AMAZING!! SOOOO fast around tight corners now...absolutely no body roll, lol.... i just start laughing...can't wait til i'm on another run and someone else is trying to hang with the s4......

The rear Hotchkis sway bar i think is making the biggest difference... i was always against spending 3-400 bucks on one sway bar, but i see now the difference it makes is absolutely worth it =)

HAHAHA.... both actually... i put the black front end on my silver s4.... i have a black s4 too i've been using for parts =)

...that's where the stasis coilovers came from and hotchkis sway bars... engine overheated in that one and the engine is out of the car right now...its a 2001 with clean title too, i think the car is sold already as a whole....
