I think early S3's are 210 and later 225. Current one is 260. As its a W perhapsits lost a few ponies! Get yours RR see what its putting out.

No expert but sounds like arb bushes. The arb's also rust etc and cause creaking. If you replace the ARB would have thought it would be a couple hours labour as I think they have to drop sub frame so will also need wheel aligment.

As above. Mines booked in with AMD next week so will let you know. How long is your warranty for? Also would have thought they would only be abe to aoid paying if the failure can be proven to have been caused by remap? Guess the only way to find out for sure is the smal print.

The BBS Wheels. Loads of them were replaced under warranty due to corrossion etc durin winter months. Just make sure they aren't kerbed and they should be okay.

Will be ordering for the octy. Thanks for the links.

Shouldn't leave any marks the rear is just glue so should polish out etc.. Not sure on the grill. Did the same on my ibiza cupra and the badge just cliped to the grill. Might just be able to pull the front one off?

Bloody hell Jamie. Good guide. Shouldn't you be working?!

At the mileage you describe you'd be mad to buy diesel. If your into cars and I assume you are surely it has to be the petrol. Much more tuneable if you later want more power etc.. Also better performance straight out of the box. Good luck whichever you chose.

Any pics of the R32?

That would be the plan - sit them really wide and dropthe car to the floor. The only problem being I actually have to drive the car and cant afford to have to wory too much about bumps etc.. Wish I still had the ibiza now or a furby!

As above cambelt should be done at 4yrs. Also waterpump. Check central locking works and is all in order. Bushes etc.Check the front doesnt creak over bumps etc.. Other than that enjoy.

Octy 1. Check that cambelt and water pump have been changed at 4yr / 40k intervals. whats the mileage? Also check electrics such as central locking etc. Other than that enjoy!

Cant stop looking at the D90's on ebay. There is another set on there as well. Think it would be difficult to get the right stance on the octy. i.e. would need a big drop to fill the arches and prob make it undriveable?

I like the LM's but love the D90's. If only they did 17's! I am tempted though. I like the LM's anyone know how heavy they are? Look like they weigh abit! Failling all og the above I like BBS CH's.

Or these? GENUINE BBS LM Split Rims 4 VW Bora Golf MK4 Audi A3 on eBay (end time 15-Aug-09 18:44:01 BST)

As per title saw these on Ebay: PORSCHE D90 ALLOY WHEELS MINT REFURBISHED,POLISHED,EURO on eBay (end time 12-Aug-09 19:15:32 BST) Always wanted them formy ibiza cupra. Think they wouldwork on a VRS with a drop?

Thats cheap! I got aquote from Adrian Flux when I had my Ibiza cupra, at the timeit was cheaperto insure it remapped than standard!

Why? How much do you pay?

Optimal Shine - Car detailing services Very Local going to drop it toTonbridge tommorow night and pick it up Sunday afternoon. There was a black fabia on here recently done by the same person. No worries will take you out for a spin when its done. looking forward to more power! Insurance increase £71. Jigger: Thanks for the link will read it now and post review once its all done. Hopefully will get some decent pics of the car after detail, if it doesn't rain!

ARB's are on back order so whenever they turn up will get it all done at once. Hopefully 1 - 2 weeks. Oh and wheel bearing Monday because itsunbelievably loud!

It would have to be the cupra. The brakes are awesome! 4 pot Brembos I think! (someone will no doubt correct me if im wrong)

Went to ##!!## today re dodgy wheelbearing, ended up ordering H & R front & rear ARB's, remap and divertor valve. I've been on hold for 10mins trying to sort insurance! P.S Jigger you local, fancy taking me for a spin sometime?

Read about hesitant delivery and flat spots etc.. The only reason I first thought of them is because they are quite local so I can take it back with little fuss if i need help etc..

Central locking as mentioned above by Jamie. Dont ask! It never ends just different bits need replacing!

I was curious about ##!!## / Alldub in T.Wells but website doesn'tshow any figres / testimonials. How long have you had it on?
