Home work is insane rn. I was going to get my screened in patio fully closed in. No flooring, no roofing, ductless ac, just two walls and 2 windows and a door. $56,000. I literally said there's a used rs3 at Audi Jax for that price. That will make me waaaaaaaaay happier goodbye.

That sounds like the "I don't really want to do this project" price!

Exactly. I got 4 different quotes they were all in the same range.

You ever thought about doing it yourself? Sounds pretty straight forward.

I did, but it's not high on the priority list right now. Plus it wouldn't really add much value to the house.

I have a question for @GTIfan99 I was looking at the racingline stage 2 brake kit... Looks like they use 345 mm rotors. Are those the mk6 r rotors?

They are same diameter and offset. Do you know rotor width? Mk6 R are 30 mm.

Hate to ask, but earlier I mentioned I was recommended to change my bushings when doing my springs. Devin mentioned mounts. Looking online it looks like these terms are interchangeable. Are bushings/mounts the same thing?

If someone has time or doesn’t mind, can someone shoot a link to a kit that includes all the pieces I should swap out? If too difficult, no worries. Gracias

** Just spoke to Anthony at O’Steen while I was typing this and he advised me to get Powerflex purple strut top bushings and bearings. He said uspmotorsports and ecstuning should carry them but I don’t see them listed.

Anyone care to point me in the right direction?

There is a bushing and a bearing. Replace both. And while you're doing that, but the Eurosport camber kit. You'll end up with between -1.5 and -2 camber with no added nvh. Well worth it.

@mrmattolsen I might have broken my car. If I can't get it sorted before Sunday, can I co drive with you? We'll throw my tires on your car.

 

[GTIfan99]

Dang how's that happen? Excuse my ignorance but what's the obd11 needed for? Can't he just refill the system and bleed it until all the air is gone? Or is there some sort of calibration necessary?

Don't know, bleeder is defective. He ended up using mine and it worked fine.

He over nighted an obd11 and I walked him through the abs bleed via pm, so all worked out.

Yeah dude I’m open to that. Just message me this weekend and let me know what’s what.

The site says 345x30mm. I just want to make sure that if I buy this kit I can actually replace the rotors. Lol

That's exactly it.
