Im Back reppin some Vag

[Glynn.]

So after a brief stint with a Suzuki Jimny im back in the Vw scene this time sporting something a little nicer than my mk3
After selling my jimny for a good price at the last moment decided on buying an A3

So at 8pm about a week and a half ago i picked up my new(secondhand) A3 8L 1.8t
For its age its in pretty good nick, after spending a couple days off the road replacing vacuum and radiator hoses its back up and running beautifully

Within a day or two of owning it ive replaced the Stock diverter valve with an Aussie made
Turbosmart Duel Port Bov (can change between atmo and plumback)
and also got custom made up a 2.5 Inch catback with a hi flo twin muffler, its not too loud at all and makes a huge difference

Not looking to go all out on the Audi but once the bug bites you cant stop it
On the cards atm are
-tune from jmac
- definitely want some new shoes something for an Oem+ look whether that means genuines or knock-offs im not to fussed
- coilovers or springs (between the mk3 low and the Jimny lift, driving this is pure bliss
- searching for a new seat as the drivers side bolster is damaged
- new sound system as the stock concert tape deck isnt making the cut ( the 6 speakers and woofers sound damn good
for ages
- some form of CAI
- replace bulbs with white LED units (started already)
- general clean up including the rear sagging head liner ( taking ideas on who to see about this)
Also want to thank Andrew (badgerboards) and my old man for their help on the weekend
Anyways heres the important pics as it sits atm
Enjoy











also should ad anyone with any parts etc to suit an AGU engine feel free to get in contact with me

Look forward to taking it to the next cruise too

Good work.

i think the right set of wheels is going to make the biggest impact on the all over look of the car, with other little bits changed here and there
thanks a bunch

Very nice Glynn, these days you don't see many 8L A3's with clean engine bays like that one.

May I ask how many kms?

[Glynn.]

thanks dude, it only has 140 thousand on the clock, as for the engine being clean, andrew cleaned it lol

[GoLfMan]

The A3 is truly good value these days!
