deanogw New Member 12 Member For: 7y 10m 27d Posted 23/05/16 06:00 PM Author Share Posted 23/05/16 06:00 PM my friend has an audi and well its not very exciting unless I were to buy sometihng like a RS6 which I couldnt insure due to my age. realistically I really dont want to spend more then £10k or 20k AUD as I still have to ship and import it, I have seen alot of autos for around that mark but im after a manual, hoping that cash is king and when I find the right one the owner likes that sort of money in green hundies. when it comes to handling mods I havent really looked to see whats around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brembos, nicer interior / exterior / aps twin plate clutch / close ratio 6 speed / 3.73 diff gears.... these are all good things. handling is a touch on the boaty mc boat face side when they are stock.... springs shocks and the addition of a rear sway bar make all the difference.

Something to bear in mind is that the manuals are much harsher on the drivelines with these cars and are prone to more NVH than the equivalent autos. The ZF 6 speed is actually a fantastic auto too...but obviously clutch kicks aren't possible in a ZF haha. Both are fun in their own right though...I actually kinda miss my manual XR6T...but shhh, don't tell these guys...

deanogw New Member 12 Member For: 7y 10m 27d Posted 29/05/16 08:15 AM Author Share Posted 29/05/16 08:15 AM thanks for all the input guys looks like im going to have to get a F6 haha will have to be manual though hate autos. I agree with the 5link being expensive but its on par with US prices for similar setups for my 2 mopars 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
