Well I usually lurk over here and hassle Prawn about his build
Anyway I thought I would start my build thread
Bought my a3 in 2009 for $12,000 (cheapest at the time), since then
*Revo stage 1 - dyno'd 117kw atw
*Initially FK streetlines but there were crap so i upgraded to weitecs hicon gt
*19" bbs ch reps
* 3" stainless steel dump pipe
* 2.5" quad exhaust cat back with high flow cats
This is what it looked like
Finally saved enough cash last year to upgrade but after 2 years of ownership the value went from $12,000 to around $8,000 (with all my mods) so i though stuff it lets build
I really set a plan on what I wanted, clutch was ruined so I ordered an ECS stage 2, then I thought I would order the F23, did more reading and thought I would order a LSD this continued for about 6 months where I continued to order parts one after the other, I finally got all the parts I wanted (or so I think)
Six months of sitting around
Let the Build Begin
Will continue the update this thread as progress is made, will reveal my plans as I go but there is a lot of parts......realistically the car is 1-1.5 months away from completion
