This is a classified on ebay for a 1995 Audi S6. Low K's and the price is right.
These can be tuned to 300+ BHP. Someone here snap it up.

nice; i wonder how much it'd cost for a manual conversion...

cos 4 spd traditional auto would be holding it back big time.

This is the same car as a urS4, based on the 100 but became S6 when the 100 became the A6. Has the same 5 cylinder turbo as in the S2.
You'd have to look in europe/uk to find a manual box for a conversion and also do some tweaking to the ECU so its not looking for the auto box.

I thought it only came in 6 speed manual??? Don't know of any autos in the UR S4. I think it's a typo on the spec as it's advertised incorrectly as an S6 which were all autos. What someone should buy if looking at one of these is the attached :big_wink:

I am pretty sure it is advertised correctly, that shape was also called an S6 .. from wiki -
See also: Audi Ur-S4 / Ur-S6 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audi_Ur-S4_/_Ur-S6) and Audi S4#C4 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audi_S4#C4)


Audi was restructuring their model lineup in early and mid-1990s, and in late 1994, began selling the fifth generation (C4) Audi 100 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audi_100) model, re-badged as the Audi A6 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audi_A6). Wanting to keep a sports-saloon in their lineup, the company made small revisions to what was previously known as the Audi S4 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audi_S4), renaming it the Audi S6; the S4 name would eventually be re-used for a completely different model derived from Audi's smaller Volkswagen Group B platform (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volkswagen_B_platform)-based Audi A4 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audi_A4)So its confusing because the Ur-S4 became the ur-S6 but I think the main difference was the S6 was Auto only?

Some one correct me if I am wrong, I am just going off what Ive read off the internet.

more from wiki -


The Ur-S4 was produced from 1992 to 1994, while the Ur-S6 was produced from 1995 to 1997. They both featured a 227 horsepower (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horsepower) 2.2 liter, 5-cylinder engine with turbocharging (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbocharging) and an intercooler (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intercooler), with a torque of 258 lb·ft (350 N·m). In Europe, V8-powered versions of both S4 and S6 were available. The S4 version sported a 280 hp (209 kW) engine (the same "ABH" engine as in Audi V8), the S6 had an upgraded engine "AEC" with 290 hp (216 kW).

I can't figure out URS4/6 in Aus. some were V8 IIRC. :confused:

Considering it is still a 5 cylinder turbo, the gearbox would be an easy switch to manual, (i think it uses it's own ECU)
I know in other country's, 1995 S6s are mostly manuals and a great gearboxs to boot, the best of 01Es at the time apart from RS2s strength wise.

Any 01A or 01E from any true quattro cars will pretty much work, some with a little more work than others.

Not that it really matters but you will get the better interior with the ur-S6 considering its based on the A6 as apposed to the S4 which was based on the 100... And I wonder if any of the ur-s6 V8's ever got to Aus?

I just remember this thread from a while back.
Probably not any V8s in Oz, nice to know it could be done as a conversion though.

Yeah I remember that one, its funny to think that engine has been around for 13 years.. Its a tough call though on which you would prefer, the famous 5cylinder turbo or the 8?

I don't even have to think about the answer to that one, but if someone gave me a drive of their RS4, I may change my mind. :big_wink:

If it were for a big cushy old mans car like this, I think I'd have to have the V8.

I dunno.. the 4.2 with a decent exhaust just sounds like pure sex and is silky smooth, but then you don't get that fun kick of the turbo or the modding options.:?:

Spoke to Peter Wright cars. That example is indeed an inline 5 turbo with automatic. I stand corrected :roll:
Might be good for parts for a certain 90 Quattro conversion :big_wink:

AAN engine is a bit of work to make it fit in the small chassis of the 90.
Besides, I've basically got all the I5 parts I need now Karl :-D

I'm going to check it out at lunch time....he's just around the corner from work.
Years ago I drove a chipped navy blue S2 he had in there and knew I had to get one !

Actually 6 months back I found a guy who'd shipped his S2 Avant over here and was selling it... it too was an auto, and for the expense and effort involved getting a good manual box, it ain't worth it in my opinion.

On the other hand if the car linked to was a Euro model S6 with the V8 and auto, well that would be a nice daily driver...at least until I got around to putting twin turbo's and a PPG gearbox in it..:rofl1:

Meanwhile the STWO 500Kw build has begun in earnest :twisted:.....stay boosted....

:woah1::woah1::woah1:

500 kW!! (or hp???)

That would be pretty awesome drag car, :_b: but with a standard 2.2 block - pretty well undrivable on the road wouldn't it? A turbo producing that power on the 2.2 block wouldn't make full boost til 5000rpm plus would it?
Would love to see the spec sheet though. Good luck mate!!
Here's some inspiration on the top speed outcome though with that sort of power :big_wink:

The car will be fully streetable, the aim is not outright Kw or drag performance at all, although ~4 sec 0-100 kph shouldn't be unreasonable, I'll be tuning it for maximum mid range torque and if it means losing some max top end output, I'm good with that, no less than 650Nm is my baseline and I'm looking to hit that well before 5k with extensive race porting and larger valves being major facilitators in this area :_b:

Haha. That is awesome isn't it
Not sure that fully tubbed RWD S2 is err what you'd call streetable though Luc :_b:
PM your build spec if you get chance. Very interested in cams, valves, rods, pistons, injectors, IM, ECU and turbo you intend using

I dont know what your talking about, im sure that any S2 that lifts the front end up under full throttle would be street legal.

Getting back on the thread track :beat:..... the car was imported by its 70+ year old owner who originally purchased it in the Philippines, thus the auto transmission and S6 badging, which Audi Australia had never officially imported, they stuck with the manual transmissions, carbon fiber interior trim, sunroof and the S4 moniker.

Ahhh
That makes more sense now. And complete with Inline 5 20V Turbo too? :big_wink:

I thought I was wrong once,............
But it turned out I was right after all :razz:

I spoke with the garage about a week ago and asked them to put up more photos.
From the new photos uploaded it looks like a scruffy car (broken indicator, missing wheel cap, bumper marks) which leads me to believe that the owner didn't care too much about it and therefore it's mechanically poor too.
Does anyone know if it has a service history?
Has anyone here gone to see it?
Might be worth making a really low offer.
The garage hasn't made much effort to tidy it up either.

I was going to see it a week or so ago, but it had been sent off for a RWC and detail... they said they would call me when it was back and also mentioned that there was a whole pile of service history which I could peruse.....still waiting for the call back :roll:

As far as the interior goes it is identical to my 1993 S4 apart from the steering wheel and the wood trim (mine has the carbon fiber trim).

As for the exterior the bumpers and the center section of the rear tail lights are slightly different to the S4. The rest of the car looks identical.

The 4 speed auto was an option.
