    Audi Sport Brake Ducts

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So there are brake ducts for the RS3 that some cars have and some don't. It looks like they've started installing them on the RS3.

    The RS3 has a steel lower control arm and the TTRS si aluminum so I figured I give it a shot for all of $70. They fit no problem, getting them tight requires the plastic to comply a little because the control arm is thinner in height but they are secure.

    Sorry for the late report. With the AP J-hook rotors and the RS3 air deflectors for the
    front brakes, no heating problems at all. I don't know it the deflectors helped are not.
    Just installed BC Coilovers that come with adjustable camber plate. Ordered custom
    BC Forged 19" wheels and going with 285 30 19 tires or 305 30 19 according to which
    one fits. They will get installed Monday and then a four wheel alignment. Also installed
    034 dogbone transmission mount, rear body mounts and rear sway bar end links. I
    use it for track only so can't wait to try it out. Haven't found a 4 point roll cage yet, if
    anyone has any info for a TTRS cage I would like to know where I can buy one.
