Owen,

I for one would love a 2 piece disc for my S3, with an oem style / colour bell.

Based in Aberdeen too.

I passed you last week in between Marykirk and Montrose. You were following a white fiesta ST heading towards Marykirk.

Cheers.

Thanks, we have similar tastes it seems

Nothing else yet other than jonny C's PCV mod. It's brand new, and coming from previous Audi's / VAG cars but recently had a 4 year spell with 2 MINI JCW's.

I'm going Stage 1 GIAC as soon as it's run in, but not further than that on performance. Want to keep it totally OEM looking. Still looking for an OEM uprated rear ARB though.

I'm based in Aberdeen, but we have a facility in Montrose hence i'm down there from time to time.

well if you want a ARB that looks OEM, is the best quality availible and also the lightest then it has to be AUTOTECH, i got mine last week and waiting to get them fitted in three weeks along with another few goodies.

a bit expensive but your best option IMHO

Looked at that but they don't do a version for 4WD VAG cars do they ?.

 

[prezf]

nice mate, good you went for them, they're sick

 

[owen lcr]

awww right, i never new that, bit of a pitty, if you phone regal autosport they are the main dealer for autotech so will be able to 100% confirm that...Is it NOV you work for?

 

[japper]

Is it NOV you work for?

Nah, though we work with them

Our Montrose place is behind the Ford Garage.

2k brand new

 

[Fishy]

Agentme If your after some brakes I can put you in touch with a fella who really knows his stuff and can supply.

Poverty, who is your contact who know's their stuff on brakes? I'm at the stage of looking for a front setup. Please dont say Hi-spec either.

Owen, dont suppose you know the price this kit would work out at would you?

Fish

the set pops up on ebay now and again for between 6-800, then you can sell the rs4 discs for 400 and buy rs6 discs for about the same.. you will be lucky to find a second hand set already with rs6 discs. i think the rs4 discs can be used however lots of reviews slate them for being poor.

i paid £1200 for mine however they were nearly brand new and had been powder coated white which cost the guy £600
