  1. Thanks guys. The standard rods are known for bending anywhere near 300lb/ft torque. The standard bam/amk pistons have been known to run 450ish hp without issues. Also air ride lol, let's not go there that's for people with 1.1 engine who like to go sllooooowww lmao
  2. The day it came back after having the engine rebuild and it decided to snap a coilspring The result Drives much firmer bit still feels like shock and spring unlike D2 coilovers lmao. Annddd more goodies... Back to the team @ BGK Tuning as I don't work on audi's. Old vs New comparison So because I'd bought the downpipe, I decided to buy the Relentless v4 manifold. Which is the revised version of previous ones, which flows well and has been vigorously tested. Which led me to finding this... Cracked hotside on the turbo. Casually sat under the car whilst the exhaust was modified
  3. With the little brother's R32..which killed the S3 over 110mph. Oversize turbo intake pipe, found about 7 holes in the old one. Old cracked cylinder head, Freshly rebuilt with new valve guides and new valve stem seals, vvt transferred to apx head. As you can see cylinder one was where the head had cracked and caused the headgasket and misfiring issues. Goodies..... She lived again... forabit lol.
  4. It's been an amazing car until problems arised with the headgasket, which has eventually brought the car to the spec it is now. This is my first build thread I've ever done so please bare with me. Jan 2013 I came from the japworld to the audi scene. Spec: Revo stage one map Forge 007p Front mount intercooler Lowered 25-30mm Since then she's had the following: *DM rifle drilled forged rods *Fully rebuilt APX cylinder head *Audi oil pump *Gates racing timing belt kit *goatze piston rings *Relentless x-pro4 manifold *Relentless decat/downpipe *Pec big end bearings *Elring Headgasket *BGK sta
  5. Hi people. Ive come on the forum after a long time. Still drive starlets just don't own one anymore Some of you may remember me, for those who don't I am Idrees and Aamir's brother. So here goes I'll start with a quick recap on my old cars and then on to the S3 build. Enjoy!!
  6. That's what I need, coilovers are too stiff, had meister r's on my old ep3 and didn't find it fully comfortable to drive daily. I've had the koni's, KYB sr specials, Monroe shocks all on previous starlets, and they were perfect for handling and comfort.
  7. Hi as above, don't want to go for coilovers as they aren't good for the roads around me, KYB new sr specials, koni's or similar please. Cash waiting
  8. Hi il take this depending on where your located?
  9. i'm 99% sure i saw this at jae a few yrs back. nice buy anyway. looks wicked
  10. best thing to use with the carbon lips is to drill holes through the fixing points on the bottom side of it and use self tappers. then use something like stikkaflex/carbond. will be secured nicely.
  11. Extend it straight up from your brake light in the rear window mate..
