Guest, 🎅🎄Looking for a stocking filler idea? Why not treat yourself or a loved one to our high quality CUPRA or SEAT valve caps. Order now from the merchandise store

yeah thats the only problem.and it has the LC bumbers + starfish alloys.and only puts out 200bhp from a V6 which is pretty bad....apart from that....4WD!
if i had silly money id take the floor plan from that to make my LCR 4WD and get about 300bhp running off it,would make me a happy chappy
poor chappy though...
1.8T 4WD's were available in Europe too, not just V6's. To reduce/eliminate wheel hop you need uprated engine mounts, not just a dogbone mount. A lower strut brace helps too.

I can't help it I grew up in the area of the essex boy
. Will look into uprating the other engine mounts as Robdon has suggested.Deleted member 19366

it's done it with every make of tyre I've tried michelin pilot sport 1,2's bridgestone, egale f1's, pzero's,yoko's, toyo's. Now got BFGoodrige on there and it still does it.
Check you have tightened the dogbone mount up correctly? Not sure if they have to be torqued up? Cant remember from when I did mine!
S3's dont use Quattro, they use Haldex. Which isnt all that good tbh. Real Quattro is only found on longitudinally mounted engines/gearboxes - as my mate at work with an RS2 reminds me daily :|

off the line tho a Haldex car launched will smoke any LCR with its traction, even more so when the weathers cold & damp like it is
Driver ability permitting
I'll get me coat...TAXI
On a more sensible note, Bill, can you get the mounts you mentioned?

Yeah Haldex is ok for what its designed for. As soon as the front wheels lose grip the rears engage.
Apparently the Haldex controller is the best mod you can buy for a S3/TT/R32/4Motion. Improves the response time 100%.
Aint no Quattro though

Foxy, trying not take this off topic and bearing in mind I've not had any experience in a Haldex car I think you're making sweeping statements there.
There are a couple of topics on Haldex systems and there's one post which links to an "audi world" discussion on Haldex. I fear you're righting the system off without knowing enough about it.
Relight one of the Haldex threads if you think it's worth discussing?
Hmmm, yes.
For one, I didnt write anything off. For two, I work for Volkswagen so I may know a thing or two about the subject. And for three, LOL!!!
