B5 boomerang

bought this A4 20vT for cheaps to daily,mega miles no history,blew it up within a fortnight........oil looked good but ripping the engine to bits revealed heavy sludge build up which chewed it out,ditched it in my sisters driveway and left it for over a year and a half due to working on my coupe and running my golf as a daily instead

found these lying in a shop and thought RUF as i could only see the top of the wheel,walked round and they were 6 spokes but still loved them so figuring theyd go well on the audi I decided to fix it

thinking about keeping it RUF themed I got them done satin black

had to give the tyres a skiff as I wanted the faces flush but still wanted to run 215/35 and 225/40(wheels are 8.5 and 9.5x18)

and thats where its sitting just now,waiting on adaptors for the black wheels(custom with flush specific spacing),broken exhaust,and in need of several cv gaitors due to the lay up then massive abuse

[Neb]

looks fantastic! nice job

[325irollin]

haha pedo center caps FTMFW! car looks sick, can't wait to see finished pics. those RUF wheels are awesome

[gumballer_80]

Fook me!
That's one hell of a come back!
:eyebrows

Can't wait to see it finished off!

[M.Burroughs]

Dude, PICS NOW!

[Zack01GC]

Looks good. Post pics of your green VW!

[Han]

Hi Daz!

-Calvin

[B Rod]

Great work! That was definitely a rough start...haha.

[Dave_The_BMXER]

I dig

[SeanDub]

Sick build!

[FluidMotorUnion]

Holy shit, completed pics demanded.

[vdubkid]

Dude, that's one hell of a comeback!

And I like where it's going, hurry up and get those adapters and wheels on!

[dubbed_up_daz]

that was a pretty condensed 'get folks up to date' im waiting on a friend of a friend turning up the custom adaptors,the 'ruf' wheels are actually BIM creative auto salon ZIET's and are off a supra so are M12 5x114.3 which I could have drilled out for M14's but they'd still need bolt to hub spacers and wobble bolts so im just going to wait on the adaptors coming,its currently lying like a shot pigeon with 3 burst gaitors and a broken exhaust which is more a priority as the work van is proper death.Ive got options wheel wise other than the BIM's but the whole reason for the build was those wheels so im as eager to see them on as you are lol

thanks for all the feedback and hi calvin :D

pics of the green ones will wait till im working on them or running them as ive nothing to update the threads with:(

[c-ron]

Welcome. Seen your car on eurghetto ride height is on-point, cant wait to see it with the new wheels on.

[slimadi]

Look forward to the updates looking good man :)

[525iT_Feen]

Pretty dope build. I def wanna see it with the new wheels.

[Schieldrop]

Pics with new wheels mounted, NOW!

[dubbed_up_daz]

Pics with new wheels mounted, NOW!

cant happen....true story

more need to sort out the running problems and im in a waiting list for the adaptors,im an impatient guy but I know I have to wait:mad

[WhiteStripes]

Sweet revival. Can't wait for final product.

[00bmw323]

nice! cant wait till wheels go on!

[Joe Flacco]

revival is right.

[schroedin]

Those wheels belong on an Audi, nice choice. The wrinkle powder looks sogood too.

[BADwayz]

Great build

[dubbed_up_daz]

we sourced the powder from the same suppliers of harley D and ferrari so they were kinda tests as well,im well happy how they turned out,washing them is amazing its almost teflon like

[ApathyCSL]

oh wow, dude whats that wrinkle powder stuff? shit is ill.

[dubbed_up_daz]

cany remember the full title but its polyester wrinkle effect powdercoat basically

[driftsucky]

I LOVE build pix like this. Car looks awesome man.

[Tuck&Poke]

sick, i belive i saw part of this build on passat world? I forget.

[ECKS///M3]

Good to be refreshed on this with a few different pics too. Badly need to see the supra rims rollin' mate!

[dubbed_up_daz]

sick, i belive i saw part of this build on passat world? I forget.

you did,I was on there from when I had my B5 passat wagon and because I was in a B5 again I thought i'd stick a post up but it never got much traffic because my updates are work dependant so it got archived a lot lol

and hi eck lol we get about dont we hahaha,we're looking at a CNC machine(mainly for diamond cutting)for in the work but its ideal for adaptors so if it comes quick enough ill knock my own adaptors up as im truly fed up with getting fucked about for them

[dubbed_up_daz]

adaptors are on their way but the car isnt,down on compression on two cylinders so the cold starting problem wasnt the temp sender like I hoped,could be either sticking or burnt valves,a hairlined gasket or rings none of them good,plus the first cv that got knocked off for a new gaitor to get fitted fell to bits and it still needs a new downpipe/decat

all in red cars suck dick

:( UGH. Sorry to hear, man. I'm really liking your car so far, hope it gets properly sorted.

[dubbed_up_daz]

not going too well so far :( red cars still suck dick

[kamberkid]

those wheels are the coolest.

[dubbed_up_daz]

not forgotten about it,still failing at adaptors but new winters(standard avus and titanium PC)with bridgestone 'wet' track tyres lol
