The TT-RS springs are now fitted to the TT-RS dampers and i must say they suit the ride well. Nice and smooth and still hold the car in a firm grip.
Also got the poor Hancook tyres replaced with Michelin Pilot Sport 3, that also transformed the ride due to the amount of tyre noise generated by the worn Hancooks.



Ride height with TT-RS springs, not that low really  :confused:







I'm still awaiting a set of red R32 rear calipers unfortunately  :sad1:

Over the top mod list ;o)

Finally got a new gearknob for the touran, need to be modified as it's not a straight swap from the Golf mk 5 to the Touran, but looks great, thx Deacon  :drinking:

Finally got to fit the autolevelling for the Xenon headlamps.
Also got a set of S3 rear 310mm brakes from Jon TFSI  :drinking: that i fitted with a set of Mintex from DaveB  :drinking:
It really do make a difference when matched with the 345mm front setup, car seems more balanced when hard on the brakes  :smiley:





Now i'm on the lookout for the painted part of the S3 front setup to swap with the red ones DaveB has supplied  :smiley:
