Unbiased opinions please?
 
So just a quick rundown. I'm fairly new to audi's within the last 3 years. Prior, I was a DSM guru(tons of dsm rebuilds). Made the switch to a 6sp allroad then traded that for an 01 TTQ 6sp 225hp and have since sold that for 2 B5 6sp S4's. Imola/Silver. Just sold my 01 tip allroad and i'm looking at picking up either a URS4 or a nice Audi 90 and swapping in the 20vt. When I picked up the Silver one I immediately had to rebuild the motor and swap the turbo's due to a horrible horrible tune. All stock rebuild unfortunately. Doing RS6r's and rods on the imola within the next 3 months. Turbo's will arrive Tuesday...tomorrow.
As of the last few days i've been struggling to find the most populated forum to ask such a question and here I am.

I'm not too fond of the URS4 styling (front end overhang) but they're still pretty good looking cars. The Audi 90 2 door coupe looks much better BUT I just had a little girl and even though i'll already have 2 other 4 door cars, i'm considering another 4 door...

On top of all of that. I know the 90 comes in 2/4 door configurations but it would technically look retarded with the 4 door and a 20vt imho. Not sure. I've only been [seriously] considering this for a few days now.

Torn.

You come here looking for unbiased opinions???? Snort....

Only you know what you like....

And stealth performance is elegance itself. A 20vt in a 4 door is quite OK.

When I rebuilt the motor on my wife's debadged turbo wagon and took it for it's first test run from Denver up to Loveland pass, the thing that made me smile the most was that the only thing that passed me was a Lamborghini Contach who I blew by down at the bottom of the climb.

Personally, this 4-door 90 looks just fine to me...

It is easier to put a 20V in a B3 than a B4.

The yellow one has custom fenders, rear bumper, sills, and just about everything else. Has been know to put down over 600 whp. One of the few high HP 20VTs, that does not blow up on occasion. The evolution of this car can be found here:

The silver one is a B4Q.

B3Q 1988-92. Came with either I5 10V or 20V. All NA. Later models had 2 piece suspension. Easier to put 20T in it because motor mounts are already in the car for an I5 motor. Of course, I would go V8.


B4Q 1993-95. Came with V6. Same front suspension a B3, rear suspension is the same as the A4. Different hood, G60 front brakes standard, all models had ABS, different rear diff, etc.

I'd kill for my Silver B4 to look that good, it can be done for the right price.
Spraying the lower trim to body color is interesting, blends well and does make it look much newer.

If you want the 20vt...
 
I would personally just get the UrS4. its bigger than the 90, like you said you have a girl. I can get 4 in my 90 but its tight. To put the 20vt in the b4 would be expensive. If you want the 20VT get the UrS4 or do the 20vt swap into the coupe B3. If you did not know, you can get a B3 4 door. Do the B4 hood and headlights conversion so it LOOKS like the B4 but it will actually be a B3. That would give it a new look with am easier 20vt swap.

Its really all up to you on what you want, decide that first. What engine? If that doesn't matter, what body do you prefer/need in your current lifestyle?

What year is your car and where can I get a body kit like that. That thing looks awesome.

Not my car. Read the thread I posted.

As my name implies, I have a 90 Quattro Coupe. I am not into I5 turbo motors, as most people are. I have a 1999 Euro AKH S8 motor in my coupe.
