WOT, but still a bit in the family, Anyone know about lowering a Audi 4000 Coupe? Similar B2 dasher/fox Options

[Mark Henry]

Teenhulk my 17 yr/old son realizes that his 914 project is at least 3-5 years from completion but wanted a car now.
I found him a real nice condition 1982 Audi coupe, 5 cylinder.
I believe it's a B2, same but upgraded VW dasher?

Like to lower it a few, bilsteins, don't want to kill the ride, don't want to bag it. just something well sorted, firm...you know like a well sorted 914.
Even I don't like the rears, they are pretty weak, car sits nose high like a stock 914.

4X100 wheel pattern so any VW, honda, hyundai, chevy cobalt, etc etc., rim will fit with the right offset. Lots of cheap choices for rims.

Any suggestion from the collective? Steer me in the right direction.
I've asked over on the vortex forum, I'm guessing that's the best source?

Nice car. I had an 84 in white. The 1st wife got it in a divorce. Another story.

There is a guy that knows a lot about these cars. His name is Dan Garza. Sorry, but the best way to find him is on Facebook.

If you have or you son has a Facebook account, you can usually find him on a couple of pages.

Pre-95 Small Chassis Audi

There are a few peoples on these pages and they could help you. Been a while since I had mine, but I was running Konis and springs.

Oh yeah, the car weighs less than 3000lbs.

A job like this works for me, but I bet this is for '83-, I've lowered VW aircooled, 914 conversion and welded in a couple mustang front ends. I can mod suspension bits but I don't want crazy, I want something that just bolts to the car.

Yea, that was me. I have a VW Fox Wagen, basically because, it was the only water cooled VW 2dr wagen that VW brought into this country and only for 4 years. I am fitting Audi B3 parts to the front suspension. It is a project car.

Basically for Audis in the states
B1 Audi Fox 1973-1979(Dasher has the same drive components)
B2 Audi 4000/CGT 1980-1987(Quantum has the same drive components)
B3 Audi 80/90 (1988-1992)
B4 Audi 90 (1993-1995)
B5 Audi A4/S4 (1996-2001)
