I've done DS2500's on stock discs and no cooling, on road they are fine even if pushing on, they do fade on track when pushing hard as the stock set up doesn't really have enough heat rejection capability - they would survive better with the audi ducts - on track I was seeing brake temps north...

They will fit with ATS GTR wheels, its tight but they will go. Suspect it will also work with a Team Dynamic prorace 1.2 or 1.3 as they have massive amounts of clearance (I've seen people running a 360mm rotor on 17s and 378mm on a 18s however with package optimised motorsport calipers). I've...

what he said.... heel and toe gear shifts in the 280 all the time and i've had no remapping etc.

I went for a manual 280 from my old 184fr, drove the DSG and manual preferred the driveablity of the manual - didnt like the low speed tip lag time of the 290 DSG (this annoyed me alot) I drove plus i'm old school and like doing manual heel and toe rather than letting the car do it for you ! i...

any more details on what he had to do? or what else was required to complete the upgrade?

noticed that on mine when i had my 184 as well. Regen frequency was ridiculous. transition at 3500rpm is driven by a change from single pilot injection to main only injection... 184ps EA288 Diesel VAG engines across the board do this. NVH in cold / part throttle is shocking bad as well. i put...

the EA288 VW engine suffers a lot from balancer shaft drive rattle. when i had my FR184 it did the same. They have no rattle control mechanism on the balancer drive.

no doubt the system ultimately works but personally would like a secondary measure of confirming if its a false alarm or real event.

PS4's all the way, you've made the right choice, went for them after having conti SP5's on my last 184. loads grip in the wet and as almost as much grip as a pilot super sport in the dry. initial turn in was a hell of lot better on them as well. on my 184 (stock manual) did 25k on them and they...

That's exactly what i'm talking about mate, seen its possible with using VAG parts. Had mixed experience with ABS based system, few false alarms, few times its needed a fairly large pressure drop to activate it (seems to be fairly common after a little bit of searching). main reason for...

so after doing a bit of google searching it seems like its possible to retro real tyre pressure monitoring to the 5F (i did wonder why you get the pressure unit option in the set up menu): there is a video on youtube but i can't post the URL yet :( would like to do this to my Cupra when i...

awesome thread ! I'm pretty new to this, had an FR184 previously but never really tinkered with it but now had a ST Cupra and will be doing a few mods detailed in here. I have a question, does anyone know if it possible to add anything like boost, oil pressure etc into the FIS? wondering if...

tis indeed ! had a mkII 170ps FR previously but after 3 years of dieselness I got bored and wanted a more excititing daily !

Hi All, Thought i'd introduce myself, recently picked up a 2015 280ST for my daily after having a 184FR for a couple of years, loving it so far ! Will be looking to do some mods to it in the future so better get reading the wealth of information on here :) does anyone know if the...
