What have you done to your Audi A4 B7 today?

[cpbrad]

Purchased a set of S3/TT carriers for the a4 a couple days ago, currently running 288mm upfront! Zero braking at the nurburgring by the 5th corner lol!

To come:
EBC red stuff pads
EBC 312mm grooved and dimpled discs
Braided lines
High temperature braking fluid
Blue caliper paint

Should be an improvement on stock without costing an arm and a leg.

Mine arrived Friday but not really looking forward to fitting them after reading a lot of horror stories about how difficult these pedals covers are to fit and besides I've been occupied washing the wagon and finally sealed it this morning... Car nice and clean now! Coming weekend Cam follower, diverter valve, then pedal covers.

Dji phantom 3 advanced it was on sale with second battery. It was 700£ but worth every penny. Still need to buy some filters and to learn use better the camera settings. But I'm very happy with it.

well nothing really exiciting, noticed the alternator belt tensioner was doing a good old shake, rattle and roll , it's starting to get worn now and deffo noisy so ordered a new one , as per normal not in stock so a two day wait, but when done things will certainly sound a lot quitter in the engine bay of the old bus, so that's another job less to worry about .

 

[Dani_B19]

Anyone know if these are needed as well as the round black clips when taking the for cards off.

They are very similar. Probably do the job.. but yes you'll need replacements.. impossible to remove door cards without braking a few

There are two of those on the top of both front door cards Dani.....OEM ones are black but they do look the same.

 

[Dani_B19]

So I'll need those that I posted and the black ones you posted the other day?

 

[Ianski68]

Well I spotted in a post someone asked what has everyone been doing their rides! Now whilst I totally get keeping the car spic and span and the great weather is good for getting stuff done! I can't help thinking that all work no play makes you a dull boy.
So today I have been ragging the cab around some lovely B roads. Roof down. Music up and tally Ho chaps.

 

[Ianski68]

Tomorrow I'll give it a good clean lol

 

[carlcall]

Yes Dani the funny looking ones.

I did a similar thing over the weekend on some private test roads

Had a play with a couple of cars....and for such a heavy lump I feel totally confident throwing it into the corners.

 

[Mik3F]

Nothing fancy, just fitted some new mats (front and back) and fixed the arm rest lid as it was coming away from the base

 

[maxdrz400]

Not today, but yesterday i treated the car to a 2.5" custom cat back inc downpipe, i was going to go for a miltek but the guys at Fast Road Conversions in ashford came in cheaper than miltek and i didnt have to mess around fitting it either, so im quite happy!

 

[Nozrul Islam]

Max, post a video of the exhaust, if you can please mate?

Video of the new zorst in action please? What engine do you have.. I want a 2.5 inch turbo back for my 2.0tdi.. I put a decat pipe in so it's a 2inch system atm and that honestly made a huge difference in the pick up.. I would perhaps have a 3inch tbh..

Ive taken a video but cant get it to upload, sorry guys.
Ive got a 2.0tfsi didnt notice much in the way of a powergain, it feels like the turbo packs a bigger punch at the top end of tge rev range but not sure if its a placebo as it sounds so much better!

 

[Nozrul Islam]

Max, what size tail pipes are these?

 

[carlcall]

Well I'm a bit peeved off.....I was going to get shorter plates made for the car as my new reg only has 5 characters in it, but I can't find short plate surrounds to fit

So I've ordered some nice pressed plates instead.....now do I get new surrounds or just attach straight to the car?

 

[maxdrz400]

4" slash cut off set to 45° to follow the contour of the bumper.

I think surrounds would look good on the back mate, not sure if it would fit the front bumper though.

 

[Stanningtonglen]

Put a new Audi rear badge on

Dropped my car today for my stainless to be made & fitted tomorrow and these are the tail pipes I'm having

Will post more pics up tomorrow

 

[Charlie Farley]

Nice

 

[Dani_B19]

Well seeming as I'm replacing nearly every clip on the car I thought I may as well do the under tray.
At the minute the under tray is held on by cable ties and random screws which isn't ideal. Can anyone confirm if these are what I need for the full undertray?

Straight to the car mate, looks so much cleaner, one of the best mods I did taking the rear plate surround off.

 

[Charlie Farley]

Yep pretty well .

Was it an expensive plate Carl or a decent priced one, I was thinking about changing my reg but prices do vary a fair bit.

 

[Nozrul Islam]

Totally agree with Dani, looks so much neater without surrounds. Save yourself the money Carl.

 

[carlcall]

It was a decent priced one. There were cheaper and more expensive ones.....I think I fell lucky with it tbh

[Stanningtonglen]

[Charlie Farley]

[Dani_B19]

Anyone able to confirm on the engine tray clips?

Thanks Rob, great sound to £1.098.
Will try and sort a vid out (once i stop grinning)

 

[Charlie Farley]

yep, I did a few replies back, they are also called dzus fasteners, not exclusive to audi by anymeans , but ebay ones will be fine.

I have a lot spare gold finish ones that I use on my duke fairings, to be honest they are a tad longer than the audi ones with larger head and a flip up handle , no need for a screw driver to undo them that way.
