When is the magazine out? Was at my local news agency today and they still had a stack of May issues

It would be nice if these companies and customers of other brands would concentrate on telling us the virtues of THEIR products, building trust by nicely answering peoples questions and supporting other forum members in their enquiries etc, rather than attempting to gain business/support for their brand by putting down all the other brands.

I think after being here a while, some feel the need to inform new Dubbians of their opinion. I don't know how it could be managed but I think there could be some real benefit from having a dedicated per tuner pro forum and per tuner against forum. This would give each party a dedicated place to praise, slander, prove and disprove each other without interfering in general threads which happen to involve parts or products by said companies.

Yes, I'm a subscriber, got it on Monday .....

What interests me is the following .... why was the Golf GTI so slow .... and how did you manage to get that Polo to be the quickest on 5 of the turns on the track ..... awesome ....

I reckon if we could take 230kg's out of the Golf, that would help - The light weight of the Polo really shines on the circuit!

Guy,

Any brake similarities between the Polo 9N / 9N3 and 6R? Wondering if the new Polo brakes would fit the old Polo and if the TT / S3 upgrade on the old Polo would apply to the new one...

I'm contemplating ditching the TT setup in favor of something lighter, the TT rotors are too heavy.

[Guy_H]

They look pretty similar - but they have different part numbers. Unfortunately the only way to try for sure would be try a fit up. They may have completely different piston sizes, so don't know how they will react with your master cylinder.

Stage 1 details are up - working on the rest of the stage 2 products as we speak.

APR - High Performance Development for Audi, VW and Porsche Vehicles.

So when can we expect pricing for stage 2 products (cold air intakes etc)?

I am looking at doing the cold air intake and stage 1 tune all at the same time.

Will be a couple of months away at a minimum, we are shopping around the fabrication work to try to keep prices down.

Swaybars, how long and estimates of how much? Are they a locally produced product or off-shore?

Awesome, that's good to hear! Now for the patient wait......

[Hooti3]

Any news on any other mods?

Specifically looking at sway bars and CAI's

[Guy_H]

Sway bar rear mounts are the only hold up at this stage on the bars, the bars are ready, but can't use them without the mounts!

Intakes are still ~ a month away, we have refined the intake snout for better fit & getting a laser cut / stamped bracket for support.
