  • My Plans

    I'm 95-99% sure that I am going to get a TT in the fall, and mod the sh!t out of it. I've started looking around now for used TT's in excellent shape, and i'm also considering importing from the US. Currently looking for a 2003-2005 Audi TT 225 Quattro Coupe with 30-40k km (ish). My colour of choice would be Dolomite Grey Pearl, and my least wanted colour is Lake Silver.

    Some of the mods that are on the radar (probably spread over some time due to cost) are:
    • KW Variant 3 Coilovers
    • Forge Adjustable Rear Control Arms
    • either some iForged or HRE 19x8.5" rims (haven't decided exactly)
    • Stoptech Big Brake Kit/ECS Tuning rear rotors
    • Spec Clutch
    • APR Stage III+ Turbo Kit (includes FMIC & downpipe)
    • Neuspeed P-Flow air intake
    • Custom stainless steel/mandrel bent/TIG welded 3" exhaust (with resonator)
    • some sort of DVD player/full speaker replacement/subs/amps (has to play DVD-Audio - haven't decided much else on this yet)
    • also haven't decided much on body work yet, but the tumors have to go!


    It's still super early at this point, but this is the general direction I'd like to head.

    So if anyone sees any new TT's around in their travels, let me know. I'm always looking.

    Also, I think I'll start a "build up" thread when the time comes.

    PS: I will be putting up a For Sale thread around Septemberish for the 20th. It needs to go to a good home.

          I'm not the hugest fan of the PPI body kit for the TT... I think the direction I'd like to go is smooooooth.

                  Tell me about it! I'm hoping the fall will yield better results. I was talking to one of the salesmen at Glenmore Audi a few months ago and he said that every spring all of the TT's on the lot go, and every fall a whole bunch come back. I think people think of the TT as a summer car, so I'm counting on people wanting to dump them.

                  Fingers crossed!

                  PS: There are a few more in the states though.

                    Why greys and silvers? You want a clean look, but I think that silvers blah it out so bad.....give it some colour!

                      Well i think that Dolomite grey pearl is an amazing colour. I usually do prefer colour, but I've kinda done the "look at me" colour, maybe it's time to go the other way? Still not sure yet... it will also depend on what is available when i'm looking to buy. I like just about every colour except for the greens (available on the TT) and Lake Silver. I don't want Silver only because almost every TT is silver, and I would like to have a semi-unique colour.

                            Hah... I was just looking up radar detectors last night! Found this web site where an ex-cop reviews radar stuff and explains things... haven't looked through it yet though:

                              Yep, that's the site that prompted me to buy Bart's Escort over a V1. It's already paid for itself about 10x over. Thanks again Bart!
