My flash red mk3 ibiza cupra...from then to now...

[s1l3nc3r]

Right since ive been on here for a while i still hadnt done one of these so i think i best add one to show you all whats going on with my ibiza and the planed mods in the future...

its moving along when i get the time and the cash although its my daily driver aswell so cant afford to have it off the road for weeks hope you all like it...

got it as standard although most of the picturs are on mu mobile so will get them up when i get them off it...

First mods were forge 007p and tip, pipercross filter and custom cat-back exhaust...

After that was time to get rid of the n249...

Then some de-wipering and de-badging was in order...

Then i sorted out a coldside kit for the d/v which i then changed to a turbosmart one aswell and fitted a jetex filter with an alloy elbow to bring it closer to the wing...

Then a little home done polish to my charge pipe...

Next after that a trip to AMD for stage one power and a uni fmic to keep the intake temperatures down...

The pipework route...

how it sits at the moment...

Next up are rear spacers and proberly ap coilovers to make it sit a bit lower and got some black paint to do the cam cover inlet mani and throtle body and try and decide what i want to do with the wheels...

[ROB IS THE STIG]

Looks good buddy, i'd leave it on those rims!! just drop it 2 the floor!

 

[pmcd84]

The car looking sweet dude, good effort. Should keep the standard rims and get them power-coated matt black and some coilovers for a nice healthy drop. Keep the good work up man!

Right i havent updated this in an age so i thought i would throw up a few more pictures of what ive done and how its standing at the moment.

Just some crappy pictures of it on my drive i need to give it a good clean really and sort out some nice shots of it.

Now lowered on AP's

Nomad pillar and boost gauge.

My new black bits...The inlet mani and TB are going black aswell but i need to get the full vag-com so i can reset the TB before i do that and plus ive got somthing a bit different planned for it aswell

What you all think...???

 

[cupra.al]

looks good,shame the hoses arnt all the same colour though ie the tip and tb hose.

 

[cupramillo]

Looking really nice there mate, progress is coming along very well. Its the best colour of course

How do you find the AP coilovers? Initially i liked mine, but now i find them very bouncy when coming in and out of corners at speed.

Keep up the good work

 

[Berg]

inlet is screaming out for the same treatment as the charge pipe

looking good

 

[Riko]

Looks tidy, i bet money you got the 'black' high temp spray from motor serve for the rocker...?

Cheers mate...I was going to go all red but couldnt get hold of red T piece etc when i needed it. the inlet mani is going black (with a twist) aswell so should blend in nice

Ya the AP's are good got a few more rattles since fitting thoough due to the firmer ride and the s**t road surface.

Thanks.
Got the paint from Halfrauds acctuly hammerite mat black came out a little bit charcoal when it dried but i like it...

 

[Bowen]

love that, nice and simple.

 

[JordanMk3]

I love the rear end of a mk3 cupra.. Especially with the oval exhaust tip.. Looks better than the the twin round tips..
Car looks awesome dude, the mirrors dont particuraly float my boat, but each to their own mate..

Quick update on my car.

Been playing with the carbon fibre stuff from 3M today so covered a few bits... had a bit of trouble with the handles so had to try and splice a bit onto it, it shows more in the photos then in the flesh because of the flash.
Let me know what you think...
