    S3.

    Same engine, much cheaper (well, they're older, so cheaper by age). Looking to dump and tune mine at the end of the month.

    It's pretty surprising what you can beat with the stage 2 and a few other basic mods

    Agreed Dan! My mate dropped his jaw when I raced against his Magna which he has done a 3.8L Mitsubishi 380 engine conversion in. Was dead even until end of 3rd gear. And mines I guess what you would call not full stage 2 yet (I called it stage 1.5 lol) as I dont have a front mount and running lower timing. Will be good to finally get the front mount on.

    Also my stubby antenna came today so my car no longer looks like a toy car

    Front to back tyre swap. Couldn't believe tyre wear from 1 track day. Going to need to get a spare set of rims I think.

    Couldn't see anything that is causing my front end knock. A couple of maybes, a bit of wd40, guess we will see.

    Spray your sway bar mounts (to the chassis) with WD40 and check your sway bar links. Has solved knocks in both cars.

    RE tyres, what are you thinking? I'm all but sold on Yoko A050R, will likely get a few meets from the current semi's before replacing.
