Have finally got the car going!!!! I put it all back together only to find out after a trip and loss of ½ litre oil that the two seals on the cam either hadn't been replaced or both had rolled over...

Hi,

looking for some tyres for my S3. I don't mind 50% as long as they are able to pass rego. Looked at mine and have found them scrubbed on the inside (back) and outside (front). In need of an...

I think there is a mob in South Australia that import and fit the towbar you can import for about the same price (saves you fitting) but thats all I have found out in my search as well.

Looking for a head for a 1999 s3 8l, APY motor.

Do you still have the concert stereo? Does it have the volume problem?

Where can I get a good priced timing belt kit for the s3 8l APY engine. Been Quoted $683 for a Dayco kit here in Tas.(seems high) Can you get one with Water...

Yeah, not planning on big turbo. Thought of an APR tune but thats it. But love driving the car and want to make sure it won't fall apart in the near future.
Bursons gave me a quote on valves, but...

Very nice build!

So, had a look today! Found that about 15cm of the belt had lost teeth....so than I looked done the spark plug hole with my new camera and can see a visible hit from 1 valve in each cylinder. Not...
