Elliott's MK3 Ibiza Cupra Update * carnage has begun*

[cupra.al]

looks clean enough to eat off i like the 3rd to last picture is that with just the sidelights on?

 

[CupraElliott]

Yeah, there not that blue really, more s whiter/blue like the Hids.

 

[Ibiza125]

MUCH better with the spacers.

 

[john-d]

that is lovely, im going to have to keep an eye out for you..... you still not seen me driving about

 

[CupraElliott]

No John, only seen the silver one. You might actually see me now, it's back on the road.

 

[ashamin786]

This is a great cupra. My favourite one by far.
Which hids have you got for the car.
My ones looking like yours while it was red

 

[john-d]

lol ive just fitted my wot box tonight its ace... so you will hear the bangs before seeing me

 

[CupraElliott]

Sweet John, be interesting to see one before I invest in one.

The HIDs are 6000k.

Going to book it in for it's map in 2 weeks if Bills available

 

[john-d]

im still trying to get the hang of it. i keep lifting off..... im still not sure if im meant to change gear normally but just keep my accelerator down... my exhausts rattling like a **** atm too, waiting for me middle section arriving from supersprint

what sort of power you hoping for

 

[wilz]

looks really well done,

one question do you have jacking point covers?

 

[evans1089]

Using spacers, wider wheels, and stretched tyres; what are the performance losses like?

wouldnt really expect any tbh

 

[CupraElliott]

Haven't noticed any, but I haven't drove it for 8 months and I have updated the coilovers, neuspeed front and rear arb and front and rear braces i doubt I will ever feel any loss, hopefully more gain.

As for the power I an hoping for 280 but realistically I would be happy with 270, going to let bill work his magic.

And yes jacking points and roof gutters thing me bobbed will be painted the week the cars away for mapping.

 

[evans1089]

Would it put more strain on the drifeshafts etc you rekon?

 

[CupraElliott]

Only the lowering IMO. But even being that low I am not getting any knocks from them.

 

[danielc16]

elliot got to say good work its like a new car, loving the wheels and the colour, one of the best cupras

 

[CupraElliott]

Does anyone signatures on here?

 

[jonjay]

Amazing project Elliot. Its always special when a detailer does something like this.

 

[JoãoOliveira]

Perfect!
