    Audi 1.8 turbo wiseco forged pistons for sale

    As above i have a set of brand new in box wiseco pistons that i bought for my s3, i was planning on using them in a build i was gonna do but i've decided to shift/break the car so no longer need these. They're 81.5 mm, therefore 0.5mm oversize so bores will need to be rebored to suit them. They...

    s3 door latches

    yeah the gaps on the passenger side are off slightly, i have tried messing with the door to get the gaps right but there's not much room for movement on the hinges, maybe the pins need replacing? i'll have another go at them tomorrow and report back.

    How much was your last MOT?

    not really a good thing to brag about on an open forum, it's nobs like your mot tester that make vosa keep an eye on the rest of us who are genuine testers. I get mine for free and i tend to test my own cars as it's a good chance to get a proper look round them to make sure all is well.

    bit of everything??

    i done the clutch on this about 8 months or so ago, it's definately different and has had a lot of work put into it. i would of just left it as a scooby though tbh as it looks a bit of a mess like this.

    s3 door latches

    hello all, every time i shut my passenger door it never shuts completely, it closes on the first latch only, i've messed around with the door catch and the adjusted it as much as i can and it's still no good and just to rub salt in the wound the drivers door is starting to do the same thing now...

    S3 overheating

    try changing the cooling fan fuses, they're ontop of the battery in a little plastic box, you'll find they have more than likely corroded and are making a bad connection.

    Impreza WR1

    The early classics are pretty basic inside, but the facelift classics and newage aint too bad, besides there's less to go wrong with having less goodies fitted.

    Jaguar XF Diesel S

    They're both very good cars in their own rights, i get to drive all the new jags at work as i do all Stratstones MOT's for them, the XF is a very nice car to be inside and has more than ample power for a derv, the BMW looks better from the outside but the interior isn't as good as the jags...

    Impreza WR1

    i'm pretty sure they're not mappable as standard, you need an esl daughter board fitted or aftermarket management, you can probably "chip" them to raise boost levels etc. Standard internals are good for about 350-400 bhp dependant on supporting mods, they're basically an sti lump.

    MK3 Golf GTI Failed MOT. Advice needed

    When was the last time it was serviced? you could try using some descent fuel system cleaner, but what i normally do if a cars failing the emmissions is stop the test, take the car out for a drive and get the cat nice and hot then re-try the test. it normally works.
