ECS has developed a range of excellent solutions to sloppy, imprecise shift action for your Audi MK1 TT 225HP. By eliminating shifter bushing deflection, you can now take control of your shifts with ECS Billet and Bronze shifter bushings. CNC machined from 6061-T6 aluminum and black anodized for long lasting protection, these bushings require no lubrication or servicing over the life of the parts. The ECS Adjustable Short Shifter Kit comes with five balancing weights to adjust shift feel according to your personal preferences. Reduce shift throws by 7, 28, or 49 percent!

Why use wheel studs instead of wheel bolts? When removing and installing wheels that utilize the factory wheel bolts, the process can be frustrating. Holding the wheel up with your legs, lining up the holes, and threading the bolts all at the same time - there must be an easier method. Four wheel conversion kits are available with 20 56mm studs and 20 ball-seat lug nuts, while two wheel conversions are also available with either 56mm or 70mm studs, and include 10 ball-seat lug nuts.

ECS Exact-Fit stainless reinforced brake lines provide more confident and dependable stopping by maintaining consistent brake pressure, long lasting corrosion resistance, and increased protection from failure. Even when new, factory style fabric mesh lined rubber hoses are prone to expansion under the pressure of hard braking, whether it be highway panic stops or threshold braking at the track. ECS lines are braided with stainless steel mesh, affording expansion resistance. This resistance to expansion creates a firmer pedal, and more direct pedal feel for your BMW.

Why would you drill holes into your perfectly good front bumper? Avoid drilling holes in your bumper by utilizing a tow hook mounted plate bracket from GMG! The No Holes License Plate Bracket does not require you to drill into your front bumper. Instead, it utilizes a custom machined stud that screws into the tow hook receptacle. Simply add or remove your license plate without ever damaging your car.

Introducing the Turner IAT Relocation Harness. BMW designed your air intake system in a way that put the intake air temperature sensor close to the engine, subjecting your engine's computer to air temps that are artificially high. When the ECU reads these warmer temperatures, timing and fueling are cut, resulting in less power and torque. By relocating the IAT to a less heat soak prone position within the air intake tract, the Turner Motorsport relocation harness offers a safe, power-preserving, plug-and-play solution to heat soak - for better, more consistent power delivery.

You might get there without a spare--then again, you might not. There's no good place for a flat tire, but some spots are worse than others. Think two-lane highway. In the dark. Miles from help. Maybe you'll get lucky. Maybe the puncture is small and repairable. If not, you can always thump down the road on a run-flat, hoping the next full service station shows up before your fillings come loose. Get there safely with a Euro BMW spare tire kit that includes spare tire, jack, wheel chocks, and lug wrenches. Special tire bag and tool carry case keep things tidy until you need them.

Reduce weight. Reduce heat. Go Faster. Stop Faster! ECS Tuning engineered 2-Piece semi-floating rotors offer real world benefits that can be felt on both the street and track! Our 2-Piece rotors combine the advantages of weight savings and rapid heat dissipation to provide a rotor superior to stock while reducing braking temperatures and extending component life. The unsprung weight savings improves handling characteristics under all situations. This reduction in rotational inertia allows for quicker acceleration, decreased braking distances, and more responsive handling.
