if you dont have a high performance car then getting grooved or drilled discs alone will see very very little if not no performance upgrade, maybe if you buy it as a set with some pads. cars like ferrari, top of the range merc, lambo, porsche etc dont just use drilled for look, as they are high...

there are two sides the the story tho! being a motorcyclist myself and i know 122mph is extremely easy to get to and sometimes you are unaware of the speed you do especially on a road like that, that is fairly quiet and open, but on the other hand, its the most irresponsible thing you could do...

what colour car do you have! i think only a few types of cars and a few type of colours can get away with black alloys!

have you thought about an uprated turbo and intercooler!

either buy the kit and do the best job possible, or see if chips away are able to do anything?!

how about decreasing the size of wheel in general

as said above vented looks like two discs together. drilled and grooved have very very little performance gains, they just slightly increase the light of the pads. if you have solid discs on there now, which is just like one plate, then for you to get vented, the one with to plates, you might be...

http://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/washing-and-drying/huge-38-x-28-microfibre-drying-towel/prod_154.html ones of these fabric ones are about 100% better than real chamois. there good for the paint and dont scratch, they hold a lot of water, i can dry my a3 totally without having to ring water out of...

either ones can look good, like on a focus or on some pugs, the morettes will look good, but angle eyes might not, but then again for other cars, angels look better. i would prefer to have angel on mine because they look a bit more standard than morettes!

i always use the stuff! but then again i am a car detailer! i use zaino tire cleaner! its a really milky liquid and it last up to about 3 weeks, it doesnt make then like all synthtic n shiny! it just restores the rubber n gives them a wet look! a clean car with nice clean tires does look good...

thats mine with blue calipers, very dirty tho

well if people can afford a £1000+ for brakes then do they should do it, if only i had the money to afford that then i would do that! but when you have a nice big set of alloys and all you can see is a crappy cast iron caliper. it aint very nice! n porsche brakes are very very similar to those...

so your saying that the painted calipers on a porsche or ferrari look nasty n chavy! i think as said above, if its the right colour it can look good! red is a bold statement and looks good on certain coloured cars n looks rough on others! and the reason why i havnt splashed out on a new set of...

yea thats true. thanks mate

does anyone know whether the 2003-2005 a3 s-line has lower suspension than the sport? i want to get myself some rs6 18in alloys and lower it like ten mil, but i can only find springs that lower it 30 mil n thats too much for me!!!

o right ok! i look at POTN site alot, if i buy, il buy through that site then! i might just buy it and see if it works! i hate little gimmicks like these! im sure they prob dont work but i have to find out if they do!

i would choose yellow. red will look good but a lot of people use red! have you thought about blue! blue will look really good in engine bay too!

ahhh ok then, i thought that was just light reflection, if there is gold pin striping then paint calipers gold

just having a look around, do these things fit every car http://torquecars.potn.com/p75712.htm do people think that they will make any difference whatsoever

pink!!!!!! i would say red, yellow or blue red will look good and stand out, as will yellow, but yellow and blue are a bit different

well i better go in and get my cambelts done then! yea a lot of places say they can offer this sort of increase. i just want to know whether its worth the money! thanks for looking around.

yea finally! im not to sure about the map tho, because like u say, it might be aggressive so it might be good on power but i dont want crappy fuel consumption, i might email them and ask more details about it! lovely cheers mate, will be a great help.

i emailed blueflame themselves asking about it all and they said Hi Matthew The cat back system would cost £375.00 inc vat and fitting and the remap we would discount to £395.00 Power increase on the map is 14bhpp and 16 newton meters of torque. Expect this to be further enhanced by the system...

has any re mapped a 2.0 fsi, if so, did it make much difference. i am looking at getting a re map and custom exhaust made from blue flame, they have told me they can get an extra 14 bhp n then 5% more with an additional exhaust. i know its not much but i want to have a more responsive n...

id say get the filter and exhausts done in like the first month n then get it re mapped after, you will get a better increase when remapped with the filter n exhaust cos the flow rate will be a lot higher and can increase the boost more! when im due for new exhaust im going to get a performance...

yea the a3 sport is lowered by 15mm compared the the standard spec, the sport has the same suspension set up i think to the s line, n the s line has the 18s. i think it will be fine standard mate! i have been looking for a lowering kit too but i only want mine lowered like another 15mm but the...

no me neither but i guess it is, but i cant believe that their is such an improvement. i really want to try it but i dont wana pay silly money for one!

i think so, mine is second hand so i dont have any of the option lists. but people say that it is audi maufactured. im just mainly after the front spoiler/splitter whatever people call it!

What is Sprint Booster? Most cars in the 21st century have replaced the more conventional throttle cable for an ECM (Electronic Control Module) that translates how hard the pedal is pushed into electronic signals in order to provide power to the wheels. The ETC (Electronic Throttle Control)...

reading a lot into these, people say they are amazing put i think they are a bit pricey! has any one fitted them to an a3 or any car? what is the difference like, i understand how it works, but it only quickens the throttle by, like, milli seconds! is it really that noticeable!

yea but i can only find the kit for the bumper with the single grill face lift, i have the twin grill

does anyone know where i can get the votex body kits from?

i looked on vagparts.com and they had the carriers on there for just over £100 but for some reason the website is not working anymore. does anyone know where else i can get these carriers from? thanks

yea u for proper HID you need automatic leveling. i didnt want to fit just aftermarket tacky ones because the beam is rubbish, it is ilegal and it just looks blue, not HID. i guess its too much money to even bother with it then! thanks for the help!

i have recently fitted some audi day/running lights and when on along with my head lights the looks slightly blue because my headlights are a dull white/yellow. is it possible to fit the standard HID headlights from the 2005 (single grill) modal to mine! i have an audi a3 2003 8p (split grill)

yea im just going to go for the 312mm discs. i take it they fit ok under 17's? i have painted my calipers blue, looks rather nice, not a bright n bold red, n my a3 is like silvery, blue so goes well. so when u just fitted the 312 discs did you notice a lot of difference? do you have to get a...

very true, but hey. for such a quality little motor. id be prepared to live with it! they do catch fire quite often which could be a bit of a problem. lol but if you keep it serviced and in good condition it should be fine! how much money would u have to spend?

how bout the old fiat punto 1.4 gt. good little car and a very tunable little motor, as its a turbo u can get a remap and get an extra 30/40 bhp out of it. no point getting an induction kit for a 1.2 as it will not increase performance! air filters only provide a gain in performance for big...

im pretty certain that the 3.2 only use 312 mm discs, i have emailed a few companies and they says its 312mm. its the s3 that are bigger! thanks for the help ive found the discs here but i want good ones...

i am looking at getting a brake upgrade, i have 288mm discs on at mo, im lookin to get the caliper carriers for the 3.2 v6 312mm discs, new pads n then some performance discs, i am looking at the brembo sport drilled discs but cant seem to find the in the 312 mm size, does anyone know of a place...
