[s-cars] Are these really 1992 Springs? ***Seller's Input***

[Michael DeBlasio]

Hey everybody,

I am the person listing the 92 springs on eBay.  I received some emails concerning the verification of the '92 springs, and this is what I came up with.  I double checked the ETKA and came up with this.  For the A10Q (Audi 100 Quattro), year 1992, illustration 407-10, it lists the springs for the AAN engine code (20v turbo), as having 1 yellow and 2 silver paint marks.  This is what I used to confirm the origin of the springs.  The previous owner of the car told me that he bought it with ABT Springs in it, and swapped them out with a set of 92 Springs.  When the springs were in the car, the car rode a bit firmer and a bit firmer, and a bit lower that the stock cars in my area.

My intention here is not to rip anyone off, or deceive anyone, so if someone could double check the info above, or has information regarding the inaccuracy of the ETKA, please let me know ASAP so that I can remove the springs from eBay before the auction closes.

Thanks in advance for your help,

Michael

The other obvious thing is that he bought the '92 from someone who had
replaced the springs with something else...but are those really the soft '97
variant, or something else?
