Its a nice car, mk2 Red.

Gary Anderson installed the charger with decompression plates. Dean had the engine and gearbox off me for the rebuild.

which group is it for sale on?

i.ve left q few due to it being full of utter dickheads


must admit i am surprised considering the amount of work and effort it took to get it all back together u would sell a unique car for something as bland as an s4. I've had a few audis and the only one i would have is the rs4.

mind you i think there will be someone who may pay more than i was able to get for mine.

These sound like nothing but an absolute headache and trouble but for some reason I really want it.
How thick were the decompression plates to cause a timing belt to break!?!?!? Saw on facebook this was the reason for the rebuild.
What is the compression ratio now? I assume still standard internals?

More importantly though, how much is it?

There are quite a few but not all, just have to filter through the crap.

More personal preference I guess. I think the "appreciation group" is the best one of the lot maybe after the Longbridge page.

There just never seems to be anything meaningful on the others. "My car did a thing today" (odo turned to 78,000 miles) and "law upheld" (a filthy ZS parked next to a cityrover in an Asda car park somewhere) posts don't really interest me but I'm not saying it makes you a bad person if they do interest other people.

I think it's probably the lack of facility to have a build thread on facebook so people doing the interesting, novel stuff tend to post on forums. Hence my preference for them. Not an absolute rule but I think a fair observation.

Also, every time somebody fits £150 civic EG coilovers to their v6 ZS, lowers it to the ground and then tells everybody how well it handles I die a little bit inside. That said, I've done it my self, that's how I learnt but still... when will people learn!

All that said, I'd still rather look at that than #selfie #no-filter (yeh right) #lips #kisses which would be the case if my news feed wasn't littered with the above instead.

Hang on, why do I have facebook at all? Now who's the knob!?

Just to clarify, no beef with anyone who does the above, just prefer it on here is all No offence to anybody intended.
