    Default My A5 with pieced together Stasis bits (pics)

    I've had my A5 for over 2 years now and at the time, I couldn't afford the Stasis "Challenge" package as the car was so stinking new in 2008, they didn't have much on the lot and what they did have, didn't have a Stasis package installed on it.

    So over the last two years, I've slowly pieced together my own package and I'm pretty much done with the exception of wheels - the Stasis split-5 spoke forged wheels look "ok" but I've been watching Jordan at ADV.1 and others, waffling on "spun forged" and real forged. I will go with the latter but that puts off the final pieces for another year.

    In the meantime, here's just a couple of shots (sorry, car wasn't washed) of how it looks with the following installed:

    Stasis Stainless Steel Exhaust system.
    Stasis Rear Anti-roll Bar
    Stasis/Ohlin SL coilovers
    2Bennett Brembo 8 piston calipers over 365mm 2pc. rotors
    -dress up item: R8 coolant tank cap.
    K&N drop in filter.

    The car is at a point where I like it just the way it is. The body style is exactly what I wanted to buy but I think side skirts are really going to be the next minor mod. In the following photos, you'll see why.... textured paint for the loss.





    This photo was taken to show just how much of the gap was taken up by the Ohlins when they were finally adjusted:



    Props go to Darren @ Streetwerk Tactical in Palo Alto for the Ohlin install.

    Looks perfect. I wouldn't even bother with wheels IMO.

    Looks good man, i'd probably go a little lower and throw some spacers on there to fill out those wheel wells.
