Detailer's Domain's - 2001 Audi S4 Restoration and Build

update, unfortunately Recaro no longer carries the white, black, blue alcantara options so I had to get them custom done.

take a look




Hope to have them back by next week.

 

That's so cool!

 

a few items needed to looked out

- replaced engine mount - installed RS4 engine mount installed
- replace rear dif bushings - installed Apikol AUDI REAR DIFF MOUNT
- headliner replaced
- oil change
- trans fluid change
- brake fluid change
- Recaro's installed ; )

 

That is one epic project. You did an excellent job

 

thank you.

 

I havent checked this thread in a while. Loving all the details ... do you have pics of the recaros already installed? Keep the pictures coming!

 

I got to really clean up the interior we found some nasty stuff under the oem seats, I got to spend a few hours cleaning up some very old coffee stains.

 

any updates?

 

finally got the brakes fixed...project is back on track!

Brembo BBK GT 355mm kit in silver - rear brakes were seized as well - new rotors, new calipers, new pads - a bit of a set back

Front brakes on

 

034 Motorsport X34 Cold Air Intake installed

034Motorsport's X34 B5 Audi S4/RS4 Carbon Fiber Cold Air Intake is the ultimate cold air induction system for the powerful 2.7T engine. The X34 utilizes a large open element filter combined with a beautifully designed carbon fiber heat shield to ensure that your turbos are drawing in cold, dense, filtered air. In addition, every X34 intake includes an ICM relocation kit to neatly move the factory ignition control modules out of sight.

I got the guys over at Drive Autoworks an authorized 034 Motorsport vendor to get it installed on the same day for me. What was great was it was in stock and they were able to accommodate my needs the same day. Install about 30 minutes.

 

I'm a stickler for the details I guess it comes with the territory.

sick of the center surround around the shifter getting scuffed up so I decided to pick up a set of birdeye maple trim and get it over laid with carbon fiber.

and so it goes on......

Got an update that Matt at oCarbon - interior trim pieces just about ready.





For any carbon fiber trim pieces contact.

no chance of sourcing any new pieces for the interior so best bet I got them wrapped in alcantara.

sucks none of the oem pieces are available anymore.

tired of the faded oem pieces in the car, with no luck finding brand new old stock I decided I had to get some custom alcantara in black - a pillars, c pillars, rear deck lid.



install photos to come.
