I also ordered some new Coilovers which arrived last week. I ordered them a while ago but due to the world time attack series MCA couldn't get them shipped straight out but that wasn't a problem as i'm not on track for a while...
MCA Suspension - Product
MCA recommended to go back to stock swaybars so I got on the hunt, not as easy as you might think. luckily Gav came to the rescue as usual and shipped me up a pair from Melbourne for the cost of shipping only. what a legend and he even included the oem brackets. ignore the whiteline packaging as that was from the replacement sway bars...
I decided to upgrade the rubber sway bushings to polyurethane and bought some adjustable rear drop links at the same time as I already have them on the front...

finally got the afr chip upgrade in the p3 cars gauge, it was a pretty straight forward replacement...
once the chip was in the afr option was added which i think is pretty cool and saves me getting an extra gauge...
14.6 at tickover which is pretty standard as far as i know; i'm interested to see what it is a full throttle...

as much as I'm not a fan of dashboard phone holders I thought the clear mount might be a less obvious option...
it was easy to install...
and fairly easy on the eye...
does a good job with the Waze app that has saved me some demerit points on a few occasions...
and works well with the track lap timer too...

ha, I bought the same one - shipped from Canada. A brilliant idea for Audi vehicles.

purchased some new 9.5 wide wheels had them fitted with 265/35/18 nexens...
surprisingly went straight on and I was able to get full lock, just...
something really looks out of whack with them though...
going to take a lot of tinkering to get them to work on the track, especially at the back...
surprising nearly fit inside the front guards...
not quite though so more rolling and adjustments required. there is obviously good reason I've never heard of an0ther 8p running 265...

Big width, be sure to update how you find the tyre’s performance
Agree on the “look out of whack” comment though.
Perhaps too much front guard to tyre gap vs the rear?

hopefully this will stop me schwitzen on the next track day...
