here is my 89 s5 tII, still a work in progress but hoping to have her all done this spring!

 

Ooh V-mount. Thats what I'm going for.

 

Varrstoen ES2's are the new MB Weapons in my mind. I love them so much.

 

I found them. Amazing engine bay. I will never get that kind of engine bay, and thats what I want so unhappy... I have no idea where to start...

Can you maybe PM and talk a little about your pully setup? it looks really nice, seems you have a custom idler installed... or have AC uninstalled....

 

its a 13B-RE main pulley set up, FD alternator, FD AC compressor and tensioner which is mounted on a modified S4 TII PS delete ac bracket. A 13B-RE uses v-belt AC pulley and the FD compressor does not line up with the S4 bracket, it puts the belts way off. So it all had to be figured out, welded, and set up. Belts have been wearing perfectly.

 

dont often see an s5 go with s4 tails.. any particular reason you switched?

 

Had a small photo shoot. thanks to rolling addiction (not a member)

 

The s5 one's had a crack on one side still looking.for a good s5 lights for a reasonable price ha

 

Had a park up and cruise. Was Atleast 30 cars Brapping away. Cops came but they were just there to make sure none got run over or whatever where we parked along the water front. Was an awesome thing to see everyone pull up at the same time, Noisey as all hell. Here's a shot from the first meeting place before we hit town and the water front.

 

Good luck on that one! seems they are getting few and far between... oh and your car is awesome btw

 

Ben, you gold s4 is inspiring. I love it. Paint choice is the one thing I still haven't decided on. Thanks for posting

 

Cheers bro. I'm a panel beater so had the option of any imaginable colour. We don't really get the satin gold metallic in nz, I've seen one other FC done in it and like mine I think it was changed to it. I spent at least two months going through colours from cherry black mica, the Subaru silver I painted the interior and engine bay, straight black, 3 stage white, Rx8 red xyrellic, everything and I chose a factory FC colour and don't regret it haha.

 

Copied from another thread because its awesome.

 

Mighty awesome for a work in progress!

 

rainy day iphone camera shoot. I promise I'll get real pictures taken soon!

 

What rear skirts are those?

 

Are those shiny glares photo shopped in?

 

He has diamond flakes. Lol

Hurley your rig is tough!

 

Thanks! Still need dyno and repaint. The currant paint is horrible.

 

Those wheels are beautiful!

 

It's a filter I have on my digital camera. Haha

 

Skirts are from a g35 coupe

 

Hurley, I prefer your old setup . Not a fan of 18's on FC's.

 

Shhhhiiiiiiieeeeeetttttt he's rocking the **** outta them thar 18's.


Cooter Kicker.

 

I wasn't happy with those cobra wheels at all! I couldn't be more pleased with how it turned out man
