White FR to Black Cupra - Cupra Now Sold :(

[Scott-o]

Yeh get some pictures up mate, sounds nice!

Finished the disks off this afty, no paint on the braking surface so no contamination, should just keep them
Looking fresh once they get whacked on. Hoping to refurb calipers too at some point when I can be bothered haha

Both disks now look like:

The paint on the outside diameter sometime burns off abit but they still looked new last time I did it on my old White fr.

 

[Dabbalz]

Yeah, they look good and least will stay looking that way.
Whats the torque setting for the calliper bolts?
I never knew it for my CZT but just tightened em up a little over our lass's Yaris T-Sport setting, put plenty of thread locking compound on too though and kept an eye, they were fine but it's always good to know like.

 

[Scott-o]

Don't have a clue if I'm honest mate, sorry you'll be able to find the answer on here somewhere like

Disks, pads and braided lines are off on, on Saturday. Ordered some Bosch aeroblade wipers and a super pro dogbone bush and steve is selling me his spare standard one so I should be able to fit that soon! Then it's just a whitelibe rear anti roll bar and forge rear strut brace and I'll be about done. Except the vr6 clutch and lightened g60 flywheel in the future when and if it needs doing. Got all the bolts and clutch at hand.

Was bored tonight and decided to get the few bits of clutter out the car, then I got carried away and stripped the rear out lol going to get a can of tyre weld and ditch the spare wheel too, see if it makes any difference haha

 

[Hartosh1]

Haha i hope you ripped all the carpet out the back aswell Scott! Sounds so much better when the rear is out but does get cold braided lines will look good i reckon also stiffen up the brake pedal aswell!

 

[Scott-o]

Nah didn't get toocarried away, need to get the covers off where the parcel shelf slots into to get the belts out but was pitch black and didn't want to break anything!

Yeh hopefully I'll feel allot of difference with all the brake bits going on!

 

[rocky2008]

long time no speek scott, havent posted on here in a while cars looking good though! just be reading there about you doing your breaks lol, get the calipers done!! we'll have to meet up sometime soon

 

[Scott-o]

Yeh been ages mate! Rr day is a week Saturday though if your having a look down?!

Yeh calipers need lacquering like, I'll get round to it one day lol

 

[Blanco92]

I had the rear stripped (well, just the carpet, seats and parcel shelf!) out on my Ibiza 1.2 while I was drying the floor out after a water leak, I could totally feel the difference!

I'm sure by removing the lot you'll feel a difference Scott.

 

[Scott-o]

I can feel a difference that it was colder inside haha and it was quite abit louder. Could hear it banging if I took it to the top of gears, as I changed gear, allot more! Need to get the rear belts out like, not sure how to get the bits of plastic off that goes over them and don't wanna pull them too hard!

 

[Scott-o]

Fitted the cone again the other day, was missing the noise will probs change it back again at some point mind:

Got it sitting in the bottom half of the airbox with the pd160 intake attached so should be cool

What interior currently looks like too:

theres a torques head screw or two somewere around there cause i was going to rip mine out the other day lol think you do have to pull hard aswell cause behind the interior trim theres them chrismas tree shaped clips, big fail

 

[Alex 17]

You leaveing the cone and stripped interior in/out for the RR day?

 

[Scott-o]

Yeh they are out nick just didn't wanna pull too hard lol

Yeh more than likely alex, cba putting them back in yet

lol get some bucket seats in there, sonley is selling the ones out of his mk3 cupra, theyre comfy as!

 

[Scott-o]

There's some buckets I've seen with subframes for a 6l Ibiza and they are brand new down to 150 now for the lot. Severly tempted tbh! Sonelys are abit expensive for me and no subframes

 

[Alex 17]

150? Get them ! You know you want too

 

[Scott-o]

I want a WOTbox more

 

[Cos]

Link to £150 seats? I want them

 

[Hartosh1]

Always fancied a nice superlight set of bucket seats but i just think they would look so out of place!

WOTbox is on the list for me aswell once the car is back to 100%

That dogbone got sent down yesterday bud let me know when you get it
