Great vid! That rs3 is a true beauty! Hope it comes to the USA

[robbyjai]

@Hondahead03 thanks :) but its NOT really an RS3. I would love it to be!!! The Rs3 didnt was suppose to come to Australia but for compliance reason didnt :( So i made my own RS3 with some nice bit of go fast kit :) doesnt quite have the same look, but goes just as well. I believe the RS3 will come to US. Only Japan and Australia missed out on the RS3.

How much have you spent on this car ? just wondering :)

[robbyjai]

@killerkan666online way tooo much money sadly :( .... probably 30k all up Minimum.!!!!! Sadly tuning in Australia is a very expensive hobby and nothing is cheap because everything has to be imported from far away!

[alamos8]

I'm a bit surprised to discover towo things: 1) I thought 380bhp were posible only with Stage 3, not Stage2+, impressive indeed. 2) That the car is a DSG version: ¿isn't pushing too much torque for the gearbox? For 380bhp I would bet for around 480Nm or so...

The car retains the stock K04 turbine? Impresive car, very fast, seems grippy and fun at the same time, very very nice overall. Good work.

[robbyjai]

@alamos8 yeh im surprised we're getting so much power out of the tune! Yes DSG version and it seems to be able to handle all the torque no worries. the software on the DSG has not been updated either. Just a stock standard Audi DSG tune. If we upgrade the software with a DSG tune.. the car will be even quicker! And it makes around about 550Nm Torque :) much more than 480 :) Stock turbo and yes the whole car is set up for track work specifically which is where this car spends most of its time :)

[Hondahead03]

Well it's just as good then LOL. Great job. Looks good, sounds good and responds well! I hope you're right, and they do bring one here. I had a 08 speed3 and traded it. Miss the turbo everyday. Now back with Honda. :(. Great cars but they are behind on the times! I really like the Audi/VW Line. The new golf R looks promising also!

[killerkan666online]

@robbyjai Well it does look well worth it that S3 Look Stunning Good work!

[Philmen]

@alamos8 yes true

[alamos8]

@Philmen I think that that is the DSG version for the longitudinal engines, like the DSG in the Audi RS5. Altough the Ausi RS3 with its turbo'd 2.5 5-cyl transverse engine come with DSG... but I suspect it is not the same DSG box as the normal S3, as the RS3 comes with 7-speed box not 6-speed, and has 450Nm

[Philmen]

@alamos8 dsg take 800nm max if i'm right

[alamos8]

@robbyjai DSG still in good form? Sorry if I'm a bit tiring, but is that I find it impressive the torque you have, specially with a DSG box. Hope the car is still performing good.
