Title: Car Tuning
Post by: NekoLelouche on March 15, 2012, 06:52:55 PM
So i love Tuned cars, i love driving in my car, i love going fast,...


Anyway i'm planning on tuning my Audi a3


I only have a picture of it Taken from the nose of the car..
so here it is:
(https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/424258_154762931310973_100003318028157_213054_1394632455_n.jpg)


Its Brand new so.. :p it has about 2000+km also 105 hp..
The plan is this:
-Chiptune it to 150hp
-New rims
-My back windows black
-LED lights
-New speakers
-Subwoofer
-New radio with navigation
-Lower the car
-And just maybe Repaint the car into Pearl white.


So everyone feel free to talk about cartuning and stuff since this is also a hobby :D

I've sold it now but it was fun for a while. Yeah it was expensive, even with lots of years no claims on my insurance it was still £2000 a year. I had a Nissan 200SX too, with front mount intercooler and all kinds of stuff, my brother blew the engine doing an indicated 170mph (274km/h).

That is just amazing! 200sx thats an s14 right?
btw is it possible that you have any information about chiptuning an 1.6 diesel engine with 105hp?
Title: Re: Car Tuning
Post by: O:\msg on March 15, 2012, 08:01:43 PM
Yeah S14, I have some pics on my other PC, I'll post a few tomorrow, we rebuilt the engine and did all the work ourselves, we even sprayed it.

I don't know much about tuning diesels really, I do know better chips give more torque though and torque is what diesels are all about. Is it a turbo diesel?

Yes its a turbo diesel injection (: also one of the latest engine's and it seems to be very hard to chiptune. so ive heard

Have you looked into an uprated turbo? Your ecu should adjust to suit as long as its only a small upgrade :D
I assume some things may be the same as petrol engines, look into uprated fuel pumps, bigger intercooler and bigger injectors maybe?
Of course, I don't know anthing for sure so don't do anything without researching it.

I don't see no reason why you couldn't turn up the boost slightly too, boost controllers are dirt cheap and very easy to fit.

Post by: dark 5FVD on March 15, 2012, 08:18:58 PM
yes indeed the subaru's are in belgium really expensive. impreza is my dream car to but i think i'm going to keep it with a Mazda RX-8 (later because i don't have enough money)

If you ever do get an Impreza get the type RA that I had, it comes with a short ratio box and does zero - top speed(125mph) in around 13 seconds, they pull top gear like 1st.

yes but i'm kinda out of subaru. although i respect subaru i think the chance that i will buy one is verry tinny

I always wanted a Nissan GTi-R, my friend had one and it ate Evo's for breakfast. They look dated now though and it would be virtually impossible to find a good one that hasn't been thrashed.

There isn't as many pics as I thought of the 200SX but there's a couple more of some other cars too.
Front mount intercooler:

Here's the Air/Fuel ratio meter and boost gauge:
(http://i40.tinypic.com/nbyulx.jpg)

Vauxhall(Opel) Corsa we did:
(http://i41.tinypic.com/wth9pz.jpg)

A Honda Prelude we did. I love these cars, I had a black one it was a 2.2 Vtec with 4 wheel steering:
(http://i43.tinypic.com/qpktv5.jpg)

And here's my black one looking standard. They are great cars, they have a digital dashboard too.

I just remembered you can see the 200sx on google maps street view(and my niece lol). Poor quality though. Those are wheels from a Mitsubishi 3000GT.
(http://i44.tinypic.com/taoojb.jpg)

Oh, I just remembered I have a few in car videos driving my impreza, going over a hump back bridge at 100mph and getting chased by police(he never caught us). I'll upload them to youtube, they're pretty fun.

Humpback bridge (http://youtu.be/P0tZwFt51pE)

Drive away (http://youtu.be/_7OePWD4yac)

Cruising (http://youtu.be/BkhDRAi17wQ)

Police looking (http://youtu.be/oxHkTKGaXaY)

The story is, I drove past a police car at eleventy squillion mph and he tried chasing but I was too quick.

Driving. The last vid has failed twice, I'll try again :(
EDIT: Ok its up. It's a Japanese import so 100mph(160km/h) is straight up vertical on the speedo.

Post by: Pr0nstarx on March 20, 2012, 08:59:45 AM
@msg, awesome vids :p watched them all.

OT: would love to chip my BMW e93 325i. Only problem is, I still live with my parents and they won't allow me to do so. They're afraid that I'll drive like an idiot then.
The car would go from 211hp to 260hp. And 270Nm to 320Nm.. Was about to convince them to let me buy it, but just got a speeding ticket this weekend.. Now they've foribidden it lol. FML.

Post by: O:\msg on March 20, 2012, 09:04:07 AM
Lol, I've never had a speeding ticket and I've been driving 16 years :P
Just do it without telling them, they'll never know hehe. My dad has had all his BMW's chipped, it makes a big difference.

It's my 5th speeding ticket in 3 years of driving. Was never really driving too hard though. But they caught me while driving 150km/h where I could only drive 120km/h. Expecting a 150 euro fine.
My parents are just crazy mad at me because they're afraid of losing me I guess.
And the garage where I go, will notice if the car has been chipped. And they happen to be close friends of my parents lol..

Its almost impossible to know if a car is chipped or not.. mostly you see it when you drive it.. well you feel it xD


i drove a Skoda Yeti with 210hp last time. you would not believe me how much power that car has!

Not exactly tuning but I think this thread is appropriate. All week I drove as fast as I could in Germany, hitting the speed limiter at 155mph quite a lot.
