Black Ibiza Mk3 Cupra

[burnsey]

Loving the black on black !

Not tempted to swap the red intercooler hoses for black ones?

Anyhow, main reason of the post, accidently found a video of your car on Youtube! Not sure if you know about it, but theres a white ek9 civic involved . If you haven't seen it yourself ill PM you the link.

Keep up the good work !

Cheers mate, ye I am going for black soon, getting custom cooler pipes made up ready for the hybrid. I just found that youtube vid lmao! I thought that guy was filming! I was running a standerd 156bhp at the time, seems ages ago now.

N1 bud

Thanks alana ye love cleaning it just takes my mind off everything lol

Today Ive fitted my 3" DP and 100 cell sports cat and what a difference!!! also I removed the milltek centre siliencer.
I just bought a set of OZ seat sport SuperT alloys as i want to go back to 16's and the brembo's will look sweet behind them.
Then I'm getting new poly bushing all around with new engine mounts also. Then the car should be pretty stable and ready for my K03 hybrid turbo biuld. Thats the plan so far, do all the handling and brakes first

Ye should look quite cool, specially with the new smaller 16" wheels ive got(which i'm gonna spray the same colour)

Ye I think I was also running in limp mode from a split vac hose, was a realy nice civic though! and it looked striped.

O and had my new wind screen aha

 

[burnsey]

Couple of pics of my new rims before they get refurbed

Should be refurbed and on the car by the end of next week

 

[Wilksey]

Good starting point you have. Good luck.

 

[burnsey]

Thanks.

Wheels done, just need new centre caps and stickers. Couple of pics, they will be on the car tomorrow so they have been polished and hard waxed:

Keep up the good work! wheels look sweet,and can't wait to see finished results on them!

 

[burnsey]

Thanks.

Wheels on the car with some new rubber. Car runs so much nicer on 16's and im happy with the way it sits now.

Next........ Some nice shiney new Brembo's

 

[CupraR_Lad]

Nice looking motor there mate, keep it up!

 

[redcupraboy]

Definately prefer the 16" Cupra R wheels, looks really stealthy now!

 

[burnsey]

Cheers guys.

I Got 195 tyres stretched on these as well, so no rubbing what so ever even with how low I've got it. Haven't decided to put the seat sport stickers on yet as I quite like them as they are.

 

[turbo009]

Looks really nice mate,very tidy car! sits well also. I like these in Black,especially when all polished and waxed they look awesome. "R" wheels look sweet.

Stealth FTW!

 

[alana]
