Ok, this is the deal.   I am selling my matched suspension kit for a 1993-1=
995 Audi S4/S6.

I bought the below suspension for my 1994 Audi S4 Quattro, however, I ended=
 up selling the car before installing the suspension.  I was going to put t=
his on my wagon, but have decided to leave it stock ride height and therefo=
re I am selling the below kit.

H&R V8 Springs
Bilstien Sport Shocks

So, what is special about this kit you ask?  Well, I had my shocks sent bac=
k to Bilstien and gave them the specs on my car.  Weight (F & R), other spe=
cs, spring rates, height, and what I was looking to get out of them...  I h=
ave driven many S4's with the Bilstien/H&R setup and it is my opinion that =
while I like the ride of the springs, the shocks were not aggressive enough=
 for such a spring.  And, since there are no "matched" sets available for t=
his car, I decided to make one myself.

So, I talked at length with an engineer at Bilstien directly, who re-valved=
 all four shocks.  I had him increase the compression side just slightly as=
 I thought that part was fine, however we did increase the rebound quite a =
bit as that is where I thought improvement was most needed.

Unfortunately, I have never had this suspension on the car to feel what it =
is like, but I imagine it would be exilarating!  I'd love to feel it, so ho=
ping someone locally will buy it, but it is going to whoever coughs up the =
cash.

The kit is being sold for $850 obo.

That's Springs for $350 and Shocks for $500.

This well over $100 less than what I purchased this equipment for, and I se=
arched to get the best prices I could find, and I did all the research and =
had all the custom work done for you.  If you are considering this Bilstien=
/H&R combo, you should seriously look at this suspension kit as I think you=
 will be much happier with this setup and cost outlay is about the same as =
getting standard shocks/springs from your usual sources.

Call or email if you have any questions (206) 661-1976.
