Hi

Thanks for your opinions when I was asking about 6-speed conversion againt
complete tranny swap. My car is right now getting 6-speed tranny from
late -94 S6. After that, car is "completely" converted to from S4 to S6.

When I bought the car, it looked about this:

Fenders and bumbers were from S6 and xenon lights were installed. Then I had
a little accident last winter and with help of insurance company, front of
the car was repaired (it cost $10000), converted to S6 look and painted.
Picture quality is bad, but you can see the change.

When my gear box started to make some noise, I decided to get 6-speed to get
better acceleration up from 60mph. I hope I get some improvement to that.

Btw. here is video about accelerating from 60 to 96mph. This was taken
before my IC was washed. Video size is 1.7 MB

I also got one uphill start to 63 mph. This video is in divx format and size
is 2.2 MB
