Haaa I find fences are like RS3 drive train these days in that they ain't strong enough for me to sit on anymore as I'm putting too much force through em

I should have joined the forum sooner instead of just looking at power gains brakes and suspension etc.....stupid I know
I've doubled the power and handling of a mk1 Leon that at 125000 miles is still on original drive shafts and CVs believe it or not and a V8 m3 that hasn't flinched at nearly 600 so it can be done on stock cars without concerns

I think this issue is a bit unusual of Audi. Paul can perhaps confirm this, but the drivetrain was never an issue for on the 8L S3, even heavily modified. And other Audi models appear to have plenty of capacity in their drivetrain components. The RS3 is a bit unusual in this regard.

 

Still a hell of a toy though!

Update:

Is everyone on the list in the first post still interested in the uprated bolts?

 

I've just been contacted by Pat @ Redline Speed Worx who's just returned from holiday and is in the process of producing the costings for me.  Hopefully it'll be today.

 

Cheers

No props shaft fails that I am aware of in my 10 years in modded 8L S3's Viraje including the TT Forum with big turbos, nitrous etc, but they didn't have LC or potentially the sustained high torque across the rev range of the RS.

I think a few cars now that are getting on, might have had remedial repairs through age etc.

Im standard/under warranty so won't be replacing my bolts or using LC. ( Its fast enough once rolling for me)

I may get them checked/ changed at service intervals once out of warranty, but again for OEM.

So here is the final pricing for 10 units - works out at $61.55 each including shipping.  xe.com/ucc converts that to £38.32.  Email below:
 

Paul - 

 

GB Pricing Per unit @ 10 Units Sold will be $40.00 each rather than $55.00.

 

Shipping via UPS Worldwide Expedited is $237.13 for a single shipment. That would be a $21.55 charge to each purchaser in addition to the $40.00 product cost. All taxes, duties, tariff surcharges will also be your responsibility. 

 

Please advise. 

 

Thanks,

[FletchRS3]

How many short are we.???

Gents my prop shaft bolts snapped a few weeks ago and believe me what a f--k on i have had with it and it nearly cost me £4000 from Audi.

Take my advice on this. For the sake of £40 lads you would be daft not to buy these bolts.

[Jmcnamee98]

Count me it please, does that make 10?

As previously stated by others and from personal experience some of the RS3 drivetrain components are weak. CV joint, driveshaft, prop shaft, transmission unit etc ...

[jonniebrads]

Update the list and put me on for a set please
