Audi B4s

[Ryannn]

Evening all,
Picked up an Audi Cabrio at the weekend and looking for some inspiration as Google didn't show me much! It's my daily so I'm not really allowed to spend much so the asbo spec wheels will have to stay. But it needs lows as a priority!

Car in question



I'll post some up myself once I'm not on my phone!

I think just low + wheel spacers, you can't go wrong with these only.
With the B4 it's very easy to make it wrong, in my opinion.

These have become quite cheap now so have fallen off the radar for off the shelf suspension stuff looked at the usual retailers but they have stopped selling lowering springs, you can still get poly bushes and shox's but they are not cheap from Deamon tweeks, sometimes lowering kit turn up on ebay and ebay.de if they are willing to post to the uk.

and here l go just found this, you can still get H&R which apparently are the best for coupes for lowering without effecting ride too much

Also GSF or was it europarts have clear front indicators for a tenner and you can get clear side indicators, also have you driven it in the dark yet? l find the lights completly useless!!!!

Havn't really had a problem with the lights yet!

I may have to trim the springs as there isn't much within budget at the moment. I'm currently hunting a de-cat as that's one of the best mods according to an Audi forum!

Please, no clear indicators!

Please, chop'em springs!
I have to do the same on my Ibiza!!!
I did it on the Megane Coupé when I was in UK and it was the best mod ever. I got a customised rake too

Yeah know what you mean but it does look better and were much cheaper than replacing the original broken ones.

Seen mixed results from people chopping their springs, also check the year for decat as mine is a 94 and has to have one for the mot although some people get away with it, also you should inform the insurance becuase it is a modification.

I do miss my old B4 Avant


although it did look a lot better on the old wheels/suspension

Suspension is the killer on these, although sumpcrackers cab sat really nice on some lowering springs. When I had the avant I had 2nd hand KW front coilies (which were V nice, but expensive) and took 3 coils off the stock rear springs. And the ride from the rear was pretty poor.

Been thinking about getting another one and I recon Vectra rear coilies would work and the vectra fronts should provide the suitable parts to be chopped and welded into a front pair
