URS6 5.2 V10 Avant 5sp Manual

[jolio1994]

Momma always said... you won't know unless you try (so here I am trying)

So, 1995.5 Audi S6 with a 5.2 V10 out of a 2007 C6 S6 (435hp). The URS6 chassis had 290,000 when swapped, and the engine had 106,000. I've since then put about 10,000 miles on this car since the swap has been done... NOT. A. SINGLE. FAILURE.

It is extremely hard for me to put everything into words so if you feel I missed something, ask away. I don't get offended, just laugh in sad tears...

An amazing car that I never expected to be up for sale.
GLWS

[jolio1994]

Thanks guys. Believe me... no rush to sell...

New project starting up at the end of the week either way!

[mightar]

Holy crap man that is badass!

I guess this isn't gonna pass CARB certification in Kalifornia...

[jdmnomore]

Fuuuuuuu... glws

[Kruat]

So what's the next project?

[Revolv0]

I have first hand experience inside this car with OP. If you are looking for the ultimate audible sensory overload, ripping gears in a raw manual V10, good luck finding something else at this price.

Alittle salty OP didnt offer it up to me before the sale posting.😂👍

[jolio1994]

Hah thanks again guys. This car is wicked awesome!

I'm not saying this next build is going to be any better, but that all comes down to fitment..

4000q (V10 if it fits) if not, either a 1.8T or a 4.2

[nthusiastt]

oh. my. lord.

That video is straight amazing.

[jolio1994]

Haha. I suppose most people don't post videos of their cars like this on F/S post, but with a swap this crazy... some might think it barely runs.

Car is extremely well put together, I overbuilt everything I could!

[audi408]

WOW this car bananas! What a sound holy hell! GLWS, this is a monster

[landfill]

Damn Joel, what next?

- - - Updated - - -

You really don’t like keeping your cars lol!

[NYC_Legacy]

When dreams become reality! Can I ask what transmission is in this beast?

[jolio1994]

2.7t Single Turbo '87 4000q is next up and in progress.

As for the transmission, this is the factory 5sp 01e. In fact, everything past the flywheel is OEM 1995 Audi S6

[jnervi3]

that thing is legendary! GLWS dude!

[Kenny147]

F#cking epic. Well done.

[besttoasted]

Follow you on IG. Sick build. GLWS.

[rawdyaudi]

Jesus man this is amazing, any idea how much she weighs? Lit up those tires with ease…..

The guy that put a 5.2L into a B5 S4 actually managed to lose 100 pounds from the factory weight while still maintaining a full interior by just swapping in manual sport seats and tubular sub-frames, so I would imagine this car is within 100 pounds of the stock 3800 pounds that these fat pigs weighed from the factory.

The 5.2L V10 has an aluminum block, while the 2.7T and AAN motors it replaced in these two examples have cast iron blocks, so the weight is fairly close between the three motors despite the vastly different configurations.

Awesome build OP! Makes me want to do this some day.

Good luck with the sale!

[jolio1994]

Yea I'd guess its in the neighborhood of the 3700-3800 lbs.

The AAN with turbo, intercooler + plumbing, and AC all add up quickly and with that gone I'm sure the car is probably slightly lighter if not the same as with the factory iron 5

[SSSSS5]

HOLY F

[jolio1994]

I get that reaction a lot!

Even better when you can park it next to a brand new RS6 at a VAG meet and people completely ignore the C8 haha

[philbegas]

Just curious - why'd you go with the 5 speed instead of the matching 6 speed for the v10? Sick build btw, talk about a "squattro" lol. I would love a car like this but just not for my only car lol

[mjmatos]

Holy jeepers Batman! This thing is NASTYYYY, pure acoustic pleasure glws op!

The simple answer is so OP didn’t have to source a six-speed transmission, too. He noted above that the transmission and everything “past the flywheel” is OEM ’95 S6, which I think is super cool.

You say “matching 6 speed”, but the only 6-speed Audi ever mated to the 5.2L (as far as I know) was the gated manual out of an R8 V10, and something tells me that would cost a hell of a lot more to acquire than the route the seller chose.

The V10 that OP used came out of a C6 S6, and he has done what I consider to be God’s work, and separated it from the gross automatic Audi tragically paired it with and mated it to a proper manual instead.

The 5-speed he used is original to the car, so he already had it, and it bolted right up! Frankly, the coolest part about this whole build in my opinion is the invaluable nugget of information that a B7 RS4 timing cover bolts up to the back of the 5.2, and enables it to be bolted to an 01E. Ever since learning that (while reading through his build thread, which is a great read by the way), visions of other ridiculous amazing V10 manual swaps have been dancing through my mind..

[jolio1994]

Hey everybody,

Im super appreciative and thankful for all the kind words and feedback for this build. Its truly an amazing and very special car and regarding the transmission being a 5sp and not the 6sp... I have a 6sp in my garage that it ready to go but whats the point of me taking apart a car that works flawlessly as-is?

The 5sp is bulletproof and its nice having that sense of security. I've contacted BAT and they're very interested in listing it even given the state of the small rust areas.

Time will tell...

[SSSSS5]

any word from BaT? Would love to see it up there

[slmds4]

This thing is so sick!! Well done, OP

[speedydtp247]

This avant is so effin AWESOME!!! Props on a epic build

[jolio1994]

I let BaT know that I won't be selling it... and I guess that kinda goes for here too. Got some pretty sweet offers, but I love this thing too much; so it'll stick around for now. Made a new intake for it, so that's pretty sweet too...

Nice to hear that your keeping it for the time being. Nice F360!

OP I think that was a great choice, not that my opinion matters LOL, but this is a unique beast and I bet just such a joy to rip on it.

You fabbed up that intake?? That looks insane!! I’m interested in learning how to do some welding myself so I can start fabbing since I’m looking into putting the 40v 4.2tt into my second b5 at some point so getting good at fabbing will help with the build costs quite a bit

Jolio in regards to the B7 RS4 Rear Timing Cover does it matter if it is from an auto or manual engine?
I converted my auto Allroad 4.2 to manual 6 speed and used the auto rear cover and now i'm contemplating a c6 5.2 conversion to 6-speed manual.
Cheers V1

[bennyc767]

Was just cruising the classifieds tonight but man was it cool to come across this thread. What an amazing build/car… Followed on IG, looking forward to more hooning in this car.
