HI there
I currently have a MK4 Golf GTi T :-
Check it out here
and here...
Good friend of mine is prepared to deal against my Golf for his immaculate 2001 S3 Facelift in black, with Bose Concert, Dimming Mirror (other options i have missed?). As his missus will be driving it mostly, he's not bothered about some of the mods on my Golf. Therefore im interested in swapping some of the mods across...
My questions are thus :-
1) My Golf has R32 front brakes fitted (with ECS tru float disks), seeing as the S3/TT 312mm front setup is a popular conversion for Golfs, is it safe to assume that the R32 brakes will bolt straight onto the S3?
2) Does the S3 have 256mm vented rears like the R32, 4-Motion and Anni?
Could i swap my 308mm solid ECS rears from the Golf to the S3?
3) I have a APR FMIC on my Golf, seeing as the facelift S3 had twin Side mounts (ala TT) would this be a worthwile upgrade?
4) I have noticed that the S3 stereo is quite wide, how do you go about fitting a standard DIN size unit in there?
5) Having H & R coilovers on the Golf, whilst outstanding in the handling dept, it is a very harsh ride, what are my options for lowering (on 8x18"'s) whilst still retaining a good level of comfort?
6) Has anyone on here had the IHI Jabba conversion done? Was just about to get this done on the Golf but then had a quiet word with myself! (no AWD)
7) Is there an advantage on chipped engines to fitting the N-75 'J' valve as there is on the chipped Golfs? I assume the S3 will have the 'F' revision as the TT?
8) What is the general opinion on CAI kits? i have one on the Golf which will be taken off regardless...
9) What is the PCD and recommended offset of the S3/A3 hub?
10) Further to Q9, i have some spare 8x18" (5 x 100) Fox premier 3's with 38mm offset, opinions on fitment and looks?
Check out my link above and look to the bottom of the pages for these wheels..
Any photochop gurus on here care to help a noob out and put them on a black S3? lol
Well, thats about it for now, must say im most impressed with the forum (and its members of course) so far. Keep up the good work guys!
