Sprint Blue Audi S3. Update!

[Boydie]

The difference is night and day though, such a transformation and the car properly shifts!!

Mine was 360bhp with stage 2+ soft and hardware - FMIC, throttle pipe, downpipe, sports exhaust, Revo intake

 

[Crimson]

If I was holding on to the S3 I would go to stage 1 and upgrade the clutch, but I might sell it in the next few months....

 

[Big Pimp]

Seen this car the other day.

Perfect colour and a couple of tasty mods will be superb

Cheers Ross and pleasure to meet you mate, fantastic products you have I'm well pleased with them bud!

 

[dc5Civic]

Well got a little delivery yesterday which I was pleased about

MY11 Rear lights. Wasted no time getting them on
This was the rear before

Mid way through (old on left and new on the right)

And with both new lights, really freshens up the back imo

Also got some led number plate bulbs in too which make a considerable difference!

And a few more photos after a quick wash using the Anachem range!

Thanks for looking.

 

[RevT]

Lovely motor, always dreamt of having one just like this. Only other thing I'd do would be lowering it.

 

[zafturbo]

Car looks great the height it is .Please don't be going lowering it .

 

[Big Pimp]

I didn't realise what a difference the rear lights would make.

Very fresh looking mate

 

[Crimson]

Those MY11 rear facelift lights really freshen the rear of these up - one of the best mods I did to mine so far

 

[dc5Civic]

Thanks for the comments guys, yea I never really seen much of a difference in other peoples photos, but in person they really do freshen the car up!
Also ordered some LED bulbs for the DRL to finally get rid of the yellow tinge in the headlights.

The alloys need refurbed badly (was on the lookout for a new set) but that's now on the backburner as the cars booked in for a detail with @big_pete at PMG on Friday so looking forward to getting that done as the paint was bugging me a little bit!

@Big Pimp might need to put another order in with you bud, unless you deliver to scotland lol, as I'm heading over next week to work for a while.

Nice one

I just received my LED DRLs last friday and have arranged with my VCDS contact to get the mod enabled for LED DRLs

My alloys need refurbed too, the centre caps are pretty weathered - I've planned to do this after my holidays

@big_pete will do a grand job on that paintwork - she'll be showroom fresh after a wee visit at PMG HQ

 

[dc5Civic]

Yea can't wait to get the paint sorted out, took advantage of the deal he had on too which is a bonus!

Just need to get the bank balance back up before there's any more updates...which could take a while

Aye getting them up to the level you want certainly takes it's toll on the pocket lol!!

Oh how right you are with that one!!

Coming along nicely now though.

By the way ive got a full set of H&R springs here if any of you are interested in lowering the car but not wanting to make the jump to coilovers. £100 and id let them go.

 

[dc5Civic]

Cheers bud, are they 20mm/25mm springs?

 

[Boydie]

Plastidip the front and rear splitters to tie in the wih the black grill - something I always toyed with on mine

 

[s3_trev]

Not a bad idea Boydie!

And yeah I think thats the ones mate. I think there only really are one measurement of springs. Boydie had them in his car too if I remember correctly. They make the gap at the front and the back virtually identical so for that reason alone they are a good mod.

 

[dc5Civic]

I'm thinking about that boydie as the front splitter has a few little marks on it, but then I want anthracite colour rims which would tie in with them now so I'm a bit undecided!

@s3_trev sent you a pm buddy

 

[s3_trev]

Replied. Also my rims are anthracite as well so if you want any pics or anything just lemmie know.

 

[dc5Civic]

Wot alloys you got on it? You got a thread for yours mate? If not feel free to throw a few up here get a look at it..

 

[Rossӏmac]

Rear lights look fantastic! I knew they would bring the rear up, but not as much as in your pictures.

 

[s3_trev]

Wot alloys you got on it? You got a thread for yours mate? If not feel free to throw a few up here get a look at it..

I actually dont. Im terrible at getting threads started lol.

There is pics on my garage page

S3_trev's Audi s3 (2009)

Not great pics but you get the idea.... I will hopefully get better ones soon!

 

[dc5Civic]

Cheers rossimac well pleased with them!

Trev that's a lovely motor mate should get a thread up...some cracking mods on it!

 

[dc5Civic]

Well "accidently" bought this in ebay

So this kinda happened today:

It definatley cleans the back end up, and I never used the back wiper so I'm happy with it!
Its getting left off at PMG tonight so I look forward to them working they're magic on it.

 

[dc5Civic]

Well left the car off with @big_pete and the guys at PMG the other day and I'm well pleased with the results! Paintwork on the car looks absolutely great now.

From there I went and met @s3_trev and picked up a set of H&R springs and this is how the car ended up yesterday...

Thats the only pics Ii have now I'll get some better ones later on.
