My first official A3 Photoshoot...
It was awesome... we snuck into a cement factory and didnt even get hassled by security.
Perfect conditions too... if only we had more time.

HPA Short Shift Kit

So I ordered and installed my SSK...
I actually ordered it before it left for Taiwan and picked it up yesterday after I got back...

Installed it this morning/noon... Pretty simple and straight forward installation... took me about 20-30 minutes...
No real problems

I opted for the 35% shift reduction instead of the 20%... Not sure why... but i like it. Either way, i can change it whenever i want!

Haha... anyways, it feels great... Super quick shifts now!
Driving is more fun!
It takes a lil bit more power to shift, but thats expected.. no big deal, just gotta get used to it...

I hope i can meet someone with the dieselgeek ssk, so i can try that out... If i end up liking that more, maybe i'll switch in the future.

Suspension install attempt number 2....

This time i went to TNT Autosport in granada hills... showed up around 11am

They started at the rear...
Look at the difference in the 2 springs!!!


No wonder my car had a fist of wheel gap!!!

Installed the coil w/ about 1 inch left of thread for the rear.

Moved onto the front...


Look at that thing sitting pretty!!



I love Gooolllllddddd

Installed the front with about 0.75 inches of thread left


Finally... everything done....



At the watering hole....


You dont really get a good sense of how damn low this thing is till you see it from far away....
It looks like its sitting down!



Finally back home...


With my other baby...



TNT was awesome... great price... cool people... def gonna go there agian... highly recommend them...
The suspension was a BIATCH to install!! seriously... i felt so bad for the installers... it was pretty horrible...
