Doors blown off by RS4

chbrules · 06-17-2007, 11:19 PM

Speaking of this, how are procede 335i's holding up against the RS4?

You know, that's one of the first things my dad asked me--how do you think a Procede 335 would have done? Well, isn't the E46 M3 still faster than the 335 at higher speeds, like over 100? There is a 12 minute video where the M3 and B7 RS4 were compared--and the RS4 had a HUGE advantage in straight-line speed over the M3. My point, as I alluded to in my original post, is that a Bimmer wanting to keep up with that car is gonna need some serious punch.

And for the record--I have no idea if this guy was running stock or if he had modded his car--all I know is that the back of it looks very nice.

dont forget he had 3 other people in the car, plus him...easy 6-800lbs on TOP of the 4000lb curb weight.

Makes me wonder what my 335 can hold against one...

I'd be interested to see what my 335 coupe could have done. A PROcede 335 coupe would probably have taken it....I hope...No Rs4's in my area to test on though.

chbrules · 06-17-2007, 11:40 PM

I'm very interested in Vishnu's new version of the procede. I'm hearing rumors of like 50-60HP on top of the old one. What does that make it, about 450HP with exhaust then?

GraphiteBrawler · 06-17-2007, 11:41 PM

Pretty much, I cant wait for v 2.0 to come out, then all I'll need is too wait for someone to make a worthwhile intake and Turbo back exhaust, and you will have a E9X m3 killer.

This is the vid I was talking about--nice performance by the M3 all in all, but the RS4 was VERY impressive in person.

Here is a real RS 4 ...on the track at Laguna..this is a friend of mine...

And here is the car I was driving around at the track two weekends ago...from the front..they look pretty close..although if you know Audis well..this is actually a "DTM" package front bumper. This car is an A4 2.0T.

sometimes it can get confusing.

RS4's are nice, but at 4000lbs, way too heavy to be considered a true performance car IMO.

Your way off...the US weight is only 3947.

Wai328 · 06-17-2007, 11:51 PM

Ouch but funny story.You should get a new M3 as ur next car

Well, I have played around with an A4 1.8T before, and there is no way the car I saw tonight was one of those. I don't remember the chrome mirrors that people have talked about, but it had dual exhaust with the Euro style tips, a SR4 badge on the lower left part of the trunk lid, a "V8" emblem on the side, and some serious rumble coming from the exhaust. I don't know my Audis that well--but this was definately not a 1.8, 2.0T, OR one of the 3.0 sixes. It was way too fast for that.

His wheels, now that I think about it, had very aggressive spacers--they were pushed out very far--so maybe it was modded up.

evoi19 · 06-18-2007, 12:11 AM

Funny story! This actually sorta happened to me today too. I was driving to my sister's house for Father's day lunch and when i exited i see an audi coming up behind me really fast. I think ok, maybe he missed the exit, or he wants to play? Anyways, i look in my mirror and look for signs to see if it was an s4 or rs4. Sure enough, silver side view mirrors tipped me off, and i knew i was no match for this guy.

We're going down the street and he pulls next to me at a light. I give a quick look and confirm it's an rs4. Light turns green and he just floors it! I wasn't even trying to race, but i guess he had something to prove.

I drove an RS4 at Willow Springs last Nov. Whatever kind of car you want to call it, it pulled like a freight @#$%#ing train and handled everything I threw at it (which, admittedly, is not all that much, but still). That was definitely my favorite car of the day (engine/exhaust sound of the gods)...had more fun with it than the M6 (SMG =

).

Good story, and he will meet his match too. Always someone faster. Nothing wrong with getting beat, especially if you didn't know.

E90ice · 06-18-2007, 02:13 AM

A 335i with PROcede, will spank the RS4, in a straight line

Let's see what PROcede v2 will offer.
