Just looked over this thread, and can't believe how much you have actually done since getting it. Starting to come together now though bro!

Feel like its coming together a lot more now especially with the decent weather I've really been able to unleash it and enjoy it. Here's another update.
So since last time I've done the following:
Oil & Filter change
Rear bumper lacquered
Both drivers doors lacquered
Front bumper repaired
4 x Michelin PS3's
Wheel re-furb
This leaves me with a few small things to sort out, Haldex oil & filter & a centre arm rest lid, then its finally time for an intake & a map.
The car is currently in 'Le Mans' trim for the drive over on Wednesday, this is only temporary of course.

It's part of the lid, unless you can repair...its a new lid.
Sometimes a used bargain comes up on eBay but I bought one from Audi Belfast as they had 25% off.

Yea this is it basically, you can get a new lid handle off ebay or off Shapeways. If you have lost the spring however your screwed as I don't think you can buy them. You will need a new lid. Its stupid the design of it sucks.

Me and JAM are the only ones booked up at the minute, we are going 18th-22nd of September, the ring is open for most of that time and there is an event on at the GP circuit. Anyone's welcome to come with, we've booked ferries and we are camping

There's a fair few on the Audi forums that have done just that, my dad forked out for a new lid for his A4 a while back but there a bit of a rip at £70 odd for just an arm rest lid.

I've not updated this in a while, mainly because not a lot has changed. I've been spending most of the time replacing OEM parts for maintenance stuff really & generally trying not to spend much money on the car.
So... I made it to the ring in September, managed 5 laps over 2 days and the car went really well, I was impressed with the PS3's and generally had a trouble free trip.
 by T.walker5190, on Flickr
Unfortunately my GoPro mount that I had on the dash decided to 'un-stick' its self coming out of Flugplatz on the first lap so no videos
When we got back I thought it best to get a few service things out of the way & I decided I would get it mapped after Christmas so ended up changing the following parts before then:
Plugs
Oil & Filter
Air filter
HPFP Cam follower
Timing belt kit
Water pump
Aux belt
Both front brake disc dust covers (one was bent and catching the bottom arm when going full lock)
None service things changed are:
New set of genuine floor mats
Shark Stage 1 Map
Black coolant bottle cap
Black washer bottle cap
MOT is due again at the end of March, I need some rear pads & discs before then and I'm going to change the rear dust covers too as they are flaking & look tatty. Annoyingly the PS3's haven't lasted long and I need another set for the MOT so I bought them a few weeks back. I grabbed a few photos of it today as we actually had a warm day!

I didn't get a before & after of the map at Shark, & to be honest I wasn't all that impressed so I took it to the RR again today to see what the graph looked like. This is what it made & the second graph is the before & after graphs overlayed.

I've booked up for the ring again in May so likely to be no updates before then. Hopefully I should be able to get some good videos this time around. Plans before the end of the summer this year are:
Revo intake
TT engine cover
Whiteline front & rear ARBS
Whiteline anti-lift kit

Looking really nice Tom, love a good S3.
you need pilot supersports in your life when those tyres next need a change! I've just changed from PS3's to Supersports and the difference is ridiculous!

Cheers mate.
I really want the Supersports! Were did you buy them from? I didn't get them this time as I'm still using it daily and doing 400miles a week which sucks. Plan is to get a daily car after the ring so I can stick this in my unit so I'll definitely be looking at them for the next set.
