In my eye's I need to throw circa £2500 to make it the car I want it to be with better handling and a remap.
As she is fast, but she is not stable when giving it the beans around the twisty bits.
I may see about getting a track day in it so I can getter understand of the point where it starts...
My only thought is that the Megan is a one track pony!
It's fast on a track/ flowing road.
But it's small, cramped, loud and a hard ride, not a great place to be and most importantly French lol ..
Not sure if the amazing classic makes up for all the down falls.
I have now saved the cash for...
I have had the S3 (hippo) for three months now and still not seeing eye to eye, so my friend let me drive his Megan RS Trophy and Wow momma, that is how I want the S3 to feel and drive live.
The Megan is just to light and planted, the chassis and response is great and now I am not sure if I A)...
Morning all,
I went for a Sunday morning blast with my friends and the Hippo really impressed me and kept up nicely with my friends.
( attached a couple of pic's)
Towards the end I did notice a tad of brake fade, so I was thinking these would be good.
Has anyone installed these before;
Cheers
It's a problem with the ECU not being able to deal with the extra power of the battery + the battery of the car used for jumping.
I had all lights on , radio , heated seats etc to use some of the power so it did not over load the ECU.
It worked and no issues.
So I went camping in the boat/S3,
700mile round trip to Newquay.
While there I charged the phone twice and camera once.
Through, the battery is Massive it will be fine........ Nope!
Tryed to start her and found out that bat was flat!
Got a tractor over to jump the old girl. Just as I was...
Hi all,
Now driven my car 3 times, but have covered 1000miles. All fairly dull motor way stuff.
Time to get the boat on a track to work out what's what before I start throwing money at her.
Tyre pressures on the S3 ( 2011) seem Very high, what do people recommend for fast road/track?
Cheers
Her she is.
600miles round trip to pick her up.
Two main issues, when in sports mode why does it change gear as it touches the red line not in the red line me?
What a stupid location for a hand brake!!!
Anti roll bar and anti lift kit are a must!
Gents what the difference between the S3...
Cheers guy's,
Thanks for the advice, my aim is circa 325 - 350BHP any more is just a waste. I am more worried about corners and stopping than straight line stuff.
The ARB made a MASSIVE difference to the STI so that's a given.
What about putting ducting cold to te disc's that would help...
I have just sold my WRX and now agreed to buy a S3 sports hatch.
I wanted to buy a WRX, but the piston issue worried me. So I drove lots of EVO's but the AYC pump and bad SST gearbox worried me, so here I am worried I am buying a "sensible" S3.
I do a lot of fast road/track driving and I noted...
