          • Finally got round to fitting my TST X Brace, instead of it just sitting behind seat looking all good but doing nothing.

            Contemplated refitting rest of my interior, but which is going to be first stereo upgrade or suspension !

            Not sure yet, so will sleep on it !.

                  Yeah keep changing my mind on which way to go with that!. Full coilovers or just OEM Euro spec.

                  • this morning fitted my TIP. (thanks alex_g)
                    What a bitch to fit.. gettin the old out was easy. getting the new in, not so easy.
                    can feel its more free flowing up top and it makes a different (awesome) dv sound through the CAI. also got rid of the hooting that was happening at around -6Hg
                    next on the list is some semi slicks then i'll be done for a bit. hopefully.. hehe

                          Good prices going on ECS kits at the moment. Was on an email from them the other day. Could you use the bent strut as an excuse as to why it was too low to get out of the defect?

                          • Not today so much as this week:

                            Did front suspension refresh (Stage 3 - though with TT bushes - as Rolf is about 10 years old now so I thought it was time), replaced front shocks and springs with KYB AGX Adjustables and Bilsteins (Did rears a couple of weeks ago), fit new Audi TT rims (thanks George S3) and had wheels aligned - also replaced entire front lower grill section with new pieces I picked up a couple of weeks ago. Next on the list is replacing my brake rotors prior to service which is due in a month or so. Then I'd like to grab a heavy duty skid plate to replace the stock one which was ripped off (after I hit a particularly deep pot hole) when I made the treck to Lake Mungo in NSW last year.

                              • Picked up some Bora 16s with tyres for spare wheels.
                                Anyone ever put rear stock springs on top of the rear coilover perch?
