So I've only really been using this to commute to the airport and back but I have a few things to sort. The thermostat seems to be sticking as unless Chou give it loads the temp hovers around 75-80. The exhaust now vibrates when hot on something. Could be broken rubbers or a bit of mis alignment...
You can drop the prop and the haldex and shafts. Leave the outer cv in the hold the axles together. Shouldn't take long. Gearbox can stay with transfer in. Yeh stay 4wd, blow another 5k on her and get 500 hp
Well my 2p worth. Mines an a3 Quattro, not an S3 a little lighter maybe?! I guess the specs the same as in running gear. I have the blue haldex controller that's on all the time, no traction issues at all and the rear really does push through corners with no on or off feeling.
So more 4wd than...
New intercooler has turned up at home. Toyosports 3" one. Trouble is I'm currently based in Norway for a few months so I'll try and get the bumper off for a line up.
That spec engine would take a much bigger turbo, seems daft to spend that on a hybrid when you can get the real deal for another £300? Same spec as mine, nearly and 150 hp down...as they say, each to there own.
The brakes for you prawn.
As for numbers the mods done have caused a larger intercooler to be purchased due to high temps.it's more than it was before by a good 20%. No graphs yet but bills told me a figure and that's good enough! I'm sure a graph will come once it has cooler inlet charge.
So...
So I got out of performance cars a few years ago after a very long line culminating in a 360 hp mk5 gti dsg.
Family and work meant I changed tack and gave it up.
BUT! It never really leaves you. So I was considering a toy when I chanced across this
I had the funds and it had the right bits...
I've owned this about 18 months but I killed it soon after I got it! Just got it back after a few upgrades.
Ex jabba sport car, now a badger 5 tuned car ;)
Hello,
Been lurking for some while, had an account a few Yeats ago but been out of it for a while. Got my car back from some upgrades yesterday so I thought I'd share it here.
