So 6 months have passed, which probably means it's update time :) The car has been great, but with a growing family the time has come to part with the trusty S3. I say this with a heavy heart as the last 9 years of ownership have been really enjoyable, and the car has taken everything in it's...

Sooo, I managed to get these fitted at the weekend. Mocked up to check it all fits: ...and finally in place behind the wheel (please ignore the scabby wheel, it is in dire need of a refurb): I'm really happy with the pedal feel and stopping power, more than enough for fast road driving...

Interested to see how you get on with this as mine will want a new fan next year I reckon.

Mine is my winter runner. In summer I use this: :rockwoot:

Lovely motor!

I paid Pipewerx to fit my downpipe, sports cat and system, £200 and 2 hours later - done. No swearing or ******* about and no knocks or bangs afterwards.

About time ;-)

It looks immense!

Looks well that, just needs an aero rear wiper to finish the **** off :-)
