You’re nuts max. Seriously. I thought you were the guy waiting for the amd blower? There were three of you on qfail and I can’t get an update out of anyone.
And I never said anything about you and vf… I said Brian (can’t remember username) was one of the rotiform guys, and he used to be the beta vf guy (s4 kit) before ngng.
Chill out man. The law getting you down or something? Maybe take a vacation.
Say hi to mick for me. We miss his antics. The ‘lulz on other forums’ thread has really slowed down.
P. S. Don’t you get tired of blowing up at me without merit? You already did this once on rs246 then apologized. I think someone needs to look in the mirror. For the record I don’t have anything against you, not even your quattrofailiphilic nature. I think you’re a pretty interesting forum member with some great stuff done to a great looking car. I dont like those old wheels is all… But guess what you’ve got lots more blowing up to do if you blow up at anyone who didn’t like them!
LOLs at the ‘apology for blowing up’…more like I used some friendly urban slang and said “not to be a pussy” when referring to you not wanting to get a CC or dyno or something like that, I honestly don’t remember. You got upset at me for calling out your manhood or something and were offended by that. I did apologize for using a word that offended you, and I still mean that, along with everything else I say.
Not sure why you take it as blowing up…just minor banter to me. You love to give it, but it seems you can’t take it on the other end. Ain’t no one angry on my side and I don’t see the reason for either of us to apologize in this case.
And still not sure where the Amd stuff is coming from…recheck your sources and get back to me on that one.
Brian and VF? I have no clue since I never followed the S4 scene and only met Brian when I realized Rotiform was a few blocks from my office one day a few years ago and I was looking for aftermarket wheels for my RS. At most I am to rotiform what you are to JHM…a fan and now a friend.
I don’t have a problem at all with you Saki and enjoy reading your posts, but didn’t like seeing myself referred to as “whats his face from qf” when you’re obviously on that forum enough to know my name if you know what wheels I have and when I have them (and my name was also the post above you from Fazzio)
Again, it makes it seem you just have a dislike for anyone that posts on that site.
Yes, the lulz has slowed down there and with that, the forum itself, but it is a site that moves fast and is full of great contributing members as well.
This can be our formal introduction and I appreciate the compliments on my car. I’ve put a lot of time and work into it and plan to keep it for the long haul. i hope to be posting some more on your forum over here.
And btw, just started a vacation this week…wife is due with baby no. 3 literally any day now.
Still loving these Rotiforms and your unique choices in wheel setups. We build our cars the way we envision them, and that’s all that matters. We should all try to stay civil since we all share a common interest in this great automobile. No need for the he-said-she-said routine.
Seeing as they are C5 A6 4.2s, you could definitely assume that
But no, only the S6, at the moment. I am trying to raise money to bring it back from retirement.
On a funny note, I have owned three of the C5 4.2 cars, and all three have had the tranny blow up. They are definitely not the strong point of the car.
You mean the S6? I bought it with the trans already gone. It has 323K on it, so that is probably about its third transmission. Audi recommends changing them at the same time as the timing belt.
C5 RS6 uses the 5-speed ZF 5HP24A tiptronic automatic. Quote from Scotty at Advanced:
The RS6 uses a 5HP24 which is the same transmission internally as the A8/A6 4.2. The difference is the torque converter size is borrowed from the A8 D2 W12 trans (which also was a 5HP24).
The RS6 have their fair share of trans issues too.
