Pashley26 Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 difference is the a3 has bigger turbo i believe I do believe you're talking bollocks. They're exactly the same, other than the engine cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greetings Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Rally sprint practice over, car gave a bit of trouble but nothing major. Fastest by a long shot though that was not surprising considering there weren't any other M3's out there. At the back of my head I still have a fear of something going wrong so couldn't really enjoy myself although there were a few places on the special stage where I'd go full banana and just ignore the car. There was a very major knock from the rear axle which I think was actually the battery. Either way it's completely failed, the only way to start the car today was to give it a push. Jump leads were absolutely useless. Presumably the battery must have failed mechanically due to severe shock. Lots of clips, both on board and stationary to come.

Pashley26 Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Your ko4'ing your a3. Boom. Surprise ruined P.S. Nobody cares, and you won't do it. Ahaaa! SURPRISE!!! Nope. Cleaned the car today. I did some logs which suggest between 220 and 225bhp so it is going very well indeed. Not sure if I want to K04 it, I think a K03s hybrid would be perfect.

Pashley26 Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 Nice work dude! - Quick video for you, not bad for a stage 1.5 R Tech tune. In the video's it's so apparent how the boost and power fluctuates, when compared to a video of my last car it makes the huge block of torque and power much more noticeable. Still, it'll get there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD™ Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 (edited) So my replacement wheels turned up: Fronts on the left, rears on the right. Clearly off of totally different sets of wheels according to the lips, badges, and general wear but at least I now have 7 wheels to pick the best from and then tart the others up and chuck em back on eBay. It's a shame I don't have 4 nice BMW centres though because the ones on the other wheels are plain schnitzer ones. Anyway, gonna attack one of the fronts with the dremel tonight to hopefully get it shining even more on the lip EDIT: Oh, and while I'm here the ET on the rears actually looks like 38 to me, not 18. I don't really understand these numbers and I haven't been able to check the back of a rear already on the car. At least the fronts being 15 is right though.

Dan6061 Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 ET18 on the rears would probably be correct if the fronts are 15! Otherwise it'd look really odd when on the car... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD™ Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 That's what I thought, but these definitely aren't from the same set so they could be made for different cars, hence the 38 stamped into the 'rears' I've got. Can't check till I whip an existing rear off the car and offer up the new ones. It's no biggy if they're wrong, I only needed a front one anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted October 11, 2012 Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 You could always use a spacer? ET38 sounds more like 1 or 3 series. You might find this of use: http://felgenkatalog.auto-treff.com/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought JD's wheels were OEM but on second guess they don't look like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
