Whoops...I actually meant to post in this thread.

Here's another of my current T44:

The Avant replaced a sedan:

Replacement made necessary courtesy of a drunk driver:

Buut...it's just a car. Here's a few others for fun...

Avant I found for a friend:

And one of my favorites, from some dude's CarDomain page:

Phew.

Here's a few of my V8q on some different wheels

That isn't the V8Q with a 4.2 is it ? Saw one in a video that looks almost identical

[Skyler@Achtuning-Hartmann]

It's a 3.6 but it does have a M/T

'92 5000?
'88 was the last year for the 5000.
The wheels on the Avant pictured are the OEM BBS 15"x7.5"
The same wheels also came on the V8 Quattro.
I also have a '91 200 20v Avant with these wheels, but I have no pictures to contribute at this point, sorry.

Booooteeeeeful! Any sound clips of the car?

Great to see so many type 44s have found good homes.

[xSWINDLERx]

my V8

Doesn't look like anyone has done a satisfactory lowering job on one of these. I will post pictures of mine once the weather clears up a bit.

[itsav8]

Is this satisfactory ...sorry for the big pics.

Money shot

[xSWINDLERx]

nope
THIS is satisfactory.

i can still get a bit lower and i prolly well once i figure out some wheels.

[itsav8]

My whole point is you can get the car low the rite way! Cutting springs are a bad idea. Since you cut the springs I would imagine your still running the OE shocks? I would expect you to totaly wear the shocks out in a NY minute. Allong with other suspension components.
Your going to destroy that car. But if thats your intensions..........

As to low..well here's a pic of my V8 before I adjusted it. The car could have went @ least another 3/4 or 1' more. But it's done the rite way.

[xSWINDLERx]

good for you!

everyone has there own style, and i find it funny that all of you audi elitist pricks dog on anyone that dose something different or out of the norm.

[itsav8]

No need to be so defensive. I/we audi elitist pricks are just looking out for you.

What you did was way screw up the suspension geomitry, meaning the car does not handle the way it's supposed to. & could even cause you to be in an accident even under normal road conditions & driving.

But since you'r a younster & no body can tell you any different...even some of us seasoned audi elitist pricks who have put there time in & know whats what...then I say good luck with the car & be safe!!!!

[xSWINDLERx]

this car is not a performance vehicle now, or in my eyes ever was. i drive it like a grandma, not some teen age kid that thinks cause i have a V8 i cant race anything. slow and low is the motto here.
