I've always felt bad starting a new thread for every issue or problem I come across. I have wanted to start a build thread for a while but have never had enough going on to do so... But now I have quite a few parts on the way so I figure I have to start somewhere...
I have bought a 2002 BAM S3 that has done 160,000KMs (~100,000 miles).
I current want to tidy the car up and do maintenance before I go on my quest for more power.
I've spent almost an entire weekend prepping and polishing the outside. Here is a progress pic.
And a couple of after shots..
(with my other toy in the background)
In the mix I currently have the following on the way:
Silicon brake vacuum lines
Silicon carbon canister hoses
Silicone DV & N75 hoses
Silicone TIP
Yellow dog bone powerflex engine mount
Catch Can & all other parts for PVC delete
My question to you is, what other mods should I be doing to get the most out of my car. What would you start to replace/upgrade next? I want to do mods that will make the car more reliable if I choose to chase more power in the future and mods that will make the car more enjoyable to drive.
