But to be perfectly honest, until I have more cash to waste to build one “right” I dont want another 944 with AWD and an extra cylinder. PITA. exactly. they have to be bought clean otherwise you’re asking for a load of trouble. i mean i had the Audi 100 quattro. and that without boost was a boat load of fun. I’ve worked on a few and driven a few turbos. One customer was actually cool enough to tell me to “give it a go.” That was a good time. ---

Sorry for the crappy garage pics > [@MPD47](#): > > Same. Been so tempted to buy one so many times. But to be perfectly honest, until I have more cash to waste to build one “right” I dont want another 944 with AWD and an extra cylinder. PITA. I could not agree with that statement more and that is why I spent a bit more and got one that was solid. Personally, I would not touch a Ur-Q for less then $8K and I would try at all costs to buy an 84 or 85. The early ones had a really poor electrical system and the fuses were those things that had the points on the ends of them and that was how they stayed in place. Unless the car has been updated, or it is SOLID and an early car, try and find a later one with the fuse box under the hood. Thanks for the kind words about the car:tup: I bought this awhile ago, July of 05 I want to say. Spent it’s entire life in California until it was shipped here. > [@Jeller](#): > > Now if I can only get him to start fucking with it. I am in the process of tracking down why the car is not making the power that it should be. The car idles fine, runs fine, but it is just not making any power, doesn’t even feel like it has a turbo. Honestly, it feels like my 4000 Quattro in terms of power. I know it is nothing major though as the car runs fine, just doesn’t make power. ---

When you floor it, the factory boost guage will go to the top of the guage, indicating that it is making boost, but it is just not doing anything with the boost. I am thinking it is this rubber hose connection going to/from the IC, you can take your index and thumb and pretty much collapse the hose. Also, the car boosts a bit better if you are going up hill, i found that out on the way to Carlisle on route 15. ---

It would be easy to do a boost leak test on it, im sure you have a compressor to pressurize everything. Should be easy to pinpoint if that is the culprit. ---

> [@AWDrifter](#): > > Nice. > Have I seen that car in EA? > How much would you sell it for? I doubt it, I have driven it twice due to lack of time/other things. I really don’t think I would sell this one as I have not seen one as solid for a non retarded price. There is a guy on [Audifans.com](http://Audifans.com) selling a white 85 for $25K and I will say mine might not have paint as good due to the fact that his was resprayed, but, mine is much better “sorted” under the hood and overall a cleaner car. ---

Yes and no. The “group b” car that everyone thinks of was based on the Sport Quattro, not the long wheel base Ur-Q. There were ur-Q rally cars, tons of them. The first cars Audi used were the “regular” type 85 coupes, without the fender flares like my Ur-Q, NA engines, and AWD. Europe was lucky enough to get the narrow body coupe quattros, we only got the FWD Coupe’s in the states. One day, i will own a narrow body coupe quattro. ---
