    RS3 brake set-up

    The disc are both 370x32mm but the bells offset the disc friction surface by a different margin on each platform, they're not compatible at all mate, as for the specific offsets, no idea, never had the need to know that.

    Santa pod meets stage 2+ ...results...

    Ah you did mention that yeah. Surely an easy fix with a Forge one and a spring from Forge to suit? http://www.forgemotorsport.com/content.asp?inc=product&cat=010603&product=FMACVAG06

    Santa pod meets stage 2+ ...results...

    Good on you, but to say everyone is that's running APR 2+ on K04 at Crail is going 12.1 just not accurate. Sorry to hear about your Turbo, is that the final diagnosis, the turbo's not running right? What exactly's wrong with it mate?

    RS3 8V not long now !

    Where did the RS3 8P take a pounding? One Youtube review by Chris Harris who has an open dislike for Audi? Sure, it had some issues with squealing brakes, which Audi fixed for every owner that complained (me included), sure, the standard continental tyres were a let down, easily resolved...

    S3 8P 4 Pot brakes options advice

    Yes mate, or stick with your 345's, just the TTS ones are a bit lighter and you dont get any lip on the disc as the pad contacts the full braking surface of the 340's Here's Mintex for £70 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PREMIUM-OE-QUALITY-MINTEX-PAIR-OF-FRONT-BRAKE-DISCS-/171709048020 Or Brembo...

    S3 8P 4 Pot brakes options advice

    Nothing more to explain really mate, buy a set of TTS front 340mm discs (or even keep your standard 345's) and give AKS a call, they will sell you new caliper brackets and braided lines for £250 that allow you to fit the RS3/TTRS caliper :)...

    S3 8P 4 Pot brakes options advice

    You can fit the RS3/TTRS caliper with the OE 340mm TTS disc (which is a good chunk lighter than the 345 S3 one) with just a caliper bracket kit from Alex at AKS Tuning. Jack, that's what Graeme's running, ask him how he's getting on with that setup?

    Santa pod meets stage 2+ ...results...

    Erm, who's everyone that's running 12.1's with K04 APR Stage 2+ at Crail Jack? Certainly nobody that's been there at the last two events I can tell you that much, Even Liam with his Hybrid Turbo S3 8P was doing 12.2's last time.

    S3 to RS3 should I?

    No need to apologise buddy, was just pointing out that this was not the case. If you're at stage 2 on your RS3 already then you're probably looking at circa £3000 to get it to over 500bhp which I actually think is really very good value myself.

    S3 to RS3 should I?

    Erm, not really sure where you get your "RS3 Stops at stage 2" information from lol, you can get a bolt on TTE500 turbo for the RS3/TTRS for £1500 exchange for a solid 500+ bhp. MRC are confident they will get close to 540 out of a friends RS3 (which is there as we speak) with the TTE500 and...

    S3 to RS3 should I?

    Link dont work mate but I see 2 red and one daytona 100 miles from you? If it's the red one in Stirling then be aware it's literally got nothing, no bose or anything although I'm guessing it's the Daytona Grey one? :)

    S3 to RS3 should I?

    Wise choice with the depth gauge, I did exactly that, cant beat peace of mind. I was but looking Eibach didn't list them as compatible for the RS3, in fact the only options I could find was H&R (not interested, too firm and the rear standard is perfect anyway) and Lowtec from Germany designed...

    That didn't last long Kev ;)

    RS3 brake set-up

    No, the difference is that the disc wont line up with the caliper, it will be 10mm off each side. Wont work mate, you need TTRS discs.

    RS3 brake set-up

    No, you need TTRS discs not RS3 ones, the RS3 discs have the wrong offset for your S3 mate. Calipers are fine.

    Anyone running Forge catch can, help needed...

    Not uncommon mate, I noticed a similar deformation on that area when fitting a PCV revamp kit, mine was only slight. The plastic deforms with the heat I think.

    Bilstein B12 Kit

    Fitted the same to my old S3 Sportback, great setup, it;s B8 dampers on Eibach Pro springs so whatever Eibach Pro lowers on your car is the answer you're looking for, the S3 was front 20mm drop only as they ride high at the front on that car as standard.

    Haha :) I should add, I loved my S3, really did but I love my RS3 more :)

    S3 to RS3 should I?

    Well as you know I sold my 2010 S3 Sportback and just bought a 2013 RS3. I'd have to ask all the people stating that it would be pointless changing to an RS3 if they've actually driven one? They're a very different car to drive, a lot to do with the 7 speed DSG but also the power delivery...
