B6 S4 gets a little wider

Written by Jonathan on June 2, 2009 – 12:02 am -

What can you do in 12 hours? How about swapping 75% of the body panels on a B6 S4? This trip to JMI was quite rewarding as I was able to replace all the doors, remove the front core support, replace both front fenders, gut the interior, and remove the rear bumper.

With the vehicle in service position I thought it would be a good time to do some maintenance and mods. Valve cover gaskets, JHM intake manifold spacers, JHM lightweight crank pulley, JHM heater elbow bypass, and a new water pump and thermostat all ended up in the car.  I’m also relocating the Optima Yellow Top battery to the passenger-side trunk which should help balance out the weight of my sub all-the-while removing weight from the front of the car.

Anyway, here’s the progress so far…not bad for one guy and 17 hours!  (If he must say so himself – Dion)

    guess that was part of the unforseen circumstances…but so far the progress looks great, makes me jealous….lol…but i love my B5 S4

    So was this orginally a s4 or a a4 and if you did replace your engine for a s4 one did you have a 3.0 before? Lastly if it was a engine swap did your rad fit from the old car =)

    It was a B6 S4.
