Time for mods, i'm thinking Tein Coilovers a Whiteline swaybar kit, slotted rotors and a FMIC to start, thoughts?


There's a school of thought where if you have a good set of coilovers you wouldn't need swaybars. But rotors yes. Personally I go for handling before more power but that's a preference.

A good friend on mine who is very good with cars recommended both but I will talk with John Fowler this week about it.

Yep can also vouch for handling 1st make it sit well and comfy, turn and stop when you want it to then look at power. My 1st step on car was wanted it all breathing well, then new bushings etc (already has HKS coilovers) my next step is turbo and injectors and that should be me at my CURRENT want goal lol (400hp but just under is cool too 370+)

No fun if it sticks ;)

I think mine handles fine. Never changed anything. Just good tyres n brake pads

LOL im not used to not having grip so would be good to get some back, the Audi is Quattro so it sticks like shit to a blanket

Zookey, you will need Ecu to do injectors.

Ecu and turbo, then injectors and AFM later if you wanna split it up



I already got my power fc, and its the d-jetro so no longer need afm. Oh and the most important mod of them all UNDER CAR NEONS/LEDS ;)

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
