Can anyone tell me if the S3 and S-Line's sit at the same height or is the S3 slightly lower? From what i could gather off the Audi website the Sport is slightly lower than standard, then the S-Line is lower still than Sport. So is the S3 lower still after the S-Line?
 
Yes it is lower than the S-Line.

From memory, the S-Line is 15mm lower than the Sport and the S3 is a further 10mm lower than the S-Line...
 
Thank you! Any recommendations on make/brand of lowering kits to go for to give a 10mm drop..? Other than picking up a couple of ladies from Chicago's nightclub...
 
Not from me as I haven't touched my suspension but what are you driving? A Sport or S-Line?
 
2006 S-Line. Has the black edition grille and Xenon HId Headlights...looking to lower it to the same height as the S3 and add the sideskirts/ mirrors and rear valance
 
The non S3 lowering springs are based on SE height.

So for example, if you fitted H&R 35 mm lowering springs, it would lower a Sport 20mm because the Sport is already 15mm lower than an SE.

It would lower an S-Line 5mm according to what's been said above. I thought the S-Line was 10mm lower than a Sport though.
 
Dosent seem all that much when put that way!!

Should help put it into perspective when choosing springs, just incase you bought 30/35mm springs and then didn't understand why it had hardly made a difference. That only applies to non-S3's.

S3's have specific lowering springs which actually lower by the specified amount, which is why they look much lower when dropped on 30/35mm springs.
