Differances

Post by RN » Sat Jul 08, 2006 12:09 am

Hi can someone list roughly what the differances are between the A3 & S3?
I thought it was the S3 had the quattro system, but I've seen A3's with it too, so is it stiffer suspension, bigger brakes etc?
Also which porsche brakes fit the front? & would rears fit?

quite a few but got quattro on the 1.8T A3 180 bhp and 1.9 soot chucker - main differences:

both 1.8T but S3 was 210/225bhp - K04 turbo instead of the K03
different body styling - arches/bumpers
Recaro seats
changes to suspension (hence lower), brakes, and exhaust system.
