Hahaha fighting wordsā¦Iām with prime on this one.
But thatās ok, maybe Salmon will come up here and take the 6MT crown, here on Canadian soil.
Just a little friendly encouragementā¦ Thompson doesnāt open until April 6th and Norwalk/Summit opens April 20thā¦ Canāt wait and I keep hearing of this supposed announcement from APR so maybe Iāll be stage III??? Also, hope I get the RS before late May as I would like a few baseline passes in decent conditions as Iāll want to mod sooner than laterā¦ lol
Youāre definitely going RS5 thenā¦? Wow.
Wait, which stage III are you gettingā¦v6 or v8?
LOL! No, I bought a 2013 TT-RS in Sepang with tech pack and heated front seatsā¦ Itās expected sometime in Mayā¦ Stage III is still on for the S4 once itās released or hopefully, Arin gets me a kit in advance ;D
Keeping the S4 AND picking up a TTRS?! Sweet!

Thanks! Now if I could just convince my wife that the S4 would be a great daily driver for her, I could order an S6 alsoā¦ She hasnāt been very receptive to the idea yetā¦ In due timeā¦

It sounds like she is already plenty understanding allowing you to have two pretty fun cars. ;D
Niceā¦my thoughts about the TT will always be about this hot girl who had a TT-S (and wasnt wearing very much, and was very chatty), while we were waiting to pick up our cars from the dealerā¦lol maybe your car will change my opinion as to this being a guys car.
Definitely thereās a lot of potential in that motorā¦

She hasnāt seen this yet then

Then sheāll say āno wayā, lol, if sheās anything like mine.
Stage 3 the TTRS would be interesting. Is that out yet?
What have we seen in 1/4 mile times from stock or tuned TTRS so far? There was one at Santa Pod that was well into the 11s and I think trapped 125 MPH (which is what the TTS Supercharged B7 RS4 trapped thereā¦a car that made 500 WHP). If that TTRS is stage 2 or something, thatās nuts.
salmon, Now your starting to sound like herā¦ lol j/k She is greatā¦ I donāt spend money on much else so shes cool with the whole car thingā¦ Also, fortunately her and I have both worked hard and blessed with great careers that allow us to afford these toys and you canāt take it with youā¦
J, Yeah I know the stigma the car has and I thought about that but Iām not hung up on itā¦ Not a lot of cars fit my desire/needā¦ I wanted a coupe, 6-speed and prefered FI motorā¦ If I donāt like it I can sell it and take a small hit but I think Iāll like it alot based on driving a TTS and what I have read about the carā¦ Will see what happensā¦
Sorry guys canāt watch youtube in the office so Iāll have to comment laterā¦
Saki, Not sure if that was a stage II or III car and not a lot of 1/4 times posted on the interwebā¦ Arin mentioned a stage III car but it may be a beta tester, honestly not positiveā¦ I want to learn how to drive the car well before I go balls out as the plan is to do a handful of track days so Iāll probably do a few stock and then go stage II with tune, exhaust(either full or downpipe), larger frount mount, and intakeā¦ Will see how that runs and then most likely go bigger turbo next year but who knows at this pointā¦ Would be nice if Arin could make some passes in their stage III TT-RS

that video bugs me. āWOW THIS THING FEELS FAST!!!ā
Guy said the same thing about the M90 supercharged VF RS4. Bit of a joke.
If I were him Iād totally take these cars to a dragstrip or buy a Vbox and do some actual testing of the cars. Hearing his opinion of what āfeels fastā is a bit hollow, knowing he is basically kissing the tunerās ass.
For that matter, why donāt we create a youtube channel where we do that? Itās really needed and would be enjoyed. The only reason I watch āMotorWeekā is for the instrumented testing of whatever car they have going that week. There are lots of numbers nerds like me.
OK, I know what video that is and saw it a few timesā¦ lol Agreed more real data would be niceā¦ The good news is Iāll provide plenty of it once I get the carā¦
Iām so jealous of you Primetime. Iāve wanted one of those TTRSs since I first heard that they were going to be selling them stateside. I just canāt justify trading in the S4 when weāre going to probably buy another house here in a month or two. Be sure to keep us updated on what itās like so that I can live vicariously through you. Theyāre like a hot girl with a funky smile. They look terrible in pictures, but are pure sex in person.
-Skid
Why are you buying another house? What market are you in?
Some real metrics would have been nice. I still havenāt seen a TTRS locally. Iād love to take one for a spin one day although I doubt it will replace my current coupe.
^^^No shit you havenāt seen one? Youāre in Rochester? Or Buffalo?
We have them here by the gross it seems. There are 2-3 in my small town. Whenever Iām in Toronto I see one too. They look badass with the big wing on there.
