I've named her lowsey because of how stiff i find her compared to my ex, Audi a3.

And came with a dent in her side 



Wheels have been changed though. Them run flats had to go boss man.



Currently in process of putting fk automotive coilovers on. Was on axle stand for 3 days as the tie rod caused the job to feel like a hurdle track on nails, what a nightmare it was to do.

Then I made the mistake of starting the passenger side FML

Looks good when it's clean tho.


Just rears left then an alignment then I think I meet my uncle bob.

Thought about doing the rear today then got lazy



That's it so far.

What wheels are they? Should look good once dropped.
ac schnitzer type 2's. I bloody love em [emoji7]

And to be honest I like the way it looks now, a bit of rake so I'm still deciding whether to raise the back or drop the front a bit

I just need to sort it's atrocious looking exhaust.

Got oil service, fuel and diff did

The got it home to finish off with micro filter, air filter and breather. I'm surprised it came with the vortex breather already inside [emoji41][emoji41][emoji41]


Double din project next I think... [emoji102]

Nice wheels. Did you see the acs type 3 for sale on here?Before Christmas mind so probably sold now. I did so well not to buy them!
I have been on the hunt for some type 3s for ages, only got these as I was lucky on eBay.

Type3s out my price range at the moment sadly. Trying not to spend money on the car but something always pops up.

Replaces topmounts... Again...

OEM left. Replacement things right...


Yes yes I know, buy cheap pay twice, but I also fitted them without the dust cap and washer thingy initially so I probably ruined them myself

New lemforder ones are on now and omg what a bloody difference

Alignment weekend [emoji16]
Glow controller soon
Remap eventually

Went to change disc and pads on the front

Rounded the bolt that holds the disc on so just did the pads


Probably had a bit of meat left on the fronts though


Then lost the wheel nut and found it an hr later walking up and down my road like a mad man lol

Remember to remove the wheel nut when turning the car around folks
