With all that crap you're still gonna run a 14.0 :). Do some weight reduction ;).

Does a 14.3 already, and the only weight reduction available to me is taking out features or sound deadening. I like my creature comforts, and the damn thing is already loud enough.

I love the car, but secretly, I keep hoping somebody will rear-end it, so i can buy a cheap POS to drive, and a Chevette to put the PA motor in...

Looks like you already have an rs4 grill?

 

Nope, still stock. Im kickin myself since the grills just went up to over $150 not too long ago. Used to be able to grab'em for less than $100.

 

As for your brakes, I would suggest buying new OEM plain rotors, a good pad (maybe Hawk HPS), SS brake lines and tyrol bushings (if made for S4). Those are the recommended brake mods for all GTI's/R32's. The slotted/drilled rotors provide no performance, they only cost more. Just trying to save you some money, and gain some braking performance. I would also suggest a bilstein/H&R combo or a good coilover setup. Go turbo back exhaust, that is where the power is, in the downpipes, not the catback. Skip the RS4 grill unless you change all of the lower grills.

 

Just my suggestions. lol

 

Saw you at your work......ate their the other day.

 

You shoulda said hey, I'm torn on the rotors, I love the look of the slots but know they do nothing. The backs are about due now but the front has a while to go. I cant wait to get rid of the damn stock pads. So much brake dust.

 

I love the look of the RS4 grill. The lower grills will be sometime there after when I can find the mesh.

Yeah, the rotors I guess is a personal choice. I would just save some money on them and then you can grab the RS4 grill with the money saved on them. Good luck.

RX-7:

Maintenance, minor paint flaws. Oh, tires to daily on.

 

My only mod will be buying a new car. It'll be enough to keep me happy for a while.

 

I saw you driving on campus monday night, and I believe I said "columbus racing?". Details are sketchy, as I was on my way home from a friends party, but I believe you responded with a finger-point of affirmation.

 

Obviously only saw it in the dark, but the car looked good.

Yup, that was me. I was wondering if anyone around here would pipe up about it. Thanks!
