Adam's Red Mk4 Ibiza

[pjdj]

Personally i want it a bit lower, it doesnt cause me ant problems so why not

I thought this was 'rod the sod's' RR thats why I replied with that.. Should have read it properly!

The car looks spot on! Wish I'd bought a red one now..

 

[rod the sod]

ye i agree looks mint with some really nice shots. does need to go lower in my opinion.

Cheers mate will take a look when i get back home!

OK so what is the difference between just swapping over these back boxes and having a cat-back system? because i can get the fitting done for peanuts as a mate is going to do it for me so if i can get cat-back done i will, sorry if this makes no sense but just want to make sure, any help appreciated in advance thanks,

Well i just bought this supersprint exhaust...

not bad for £20

Going to clean it up and then fitting it myself with a friend so free fitting

should look much better than the jap crap on at the minute

Looks nice mate
The difference with a cat back is the centre section.
So you would use 2.5" from the cat to the back box.
Hope that makes sense

Cheers mate i'm sure my mate knows what he's doing after all he works on classic Jags every day! Il tell him to get this done then hopefully getting it set up this weekend will get some pictures of the process

Will 225 tyres rub alot guys? deciding on some new wheels...

 

[Blanco92]

Everyone I've heard running 225s have been in trouble. Never heard of an Ibiza Mk4 that doesn't rub running 225s. I'd rule it out, to be honest.

 

[Whitechapel]

Yep thought so cheers bud! oh well!

 

[Whitechapel]

May be getting some BBS goodness on this very soon if all goes to plan.. always wanted a set of these!

 

[Whitechapel]

Small update, arranged to pick up some 17" BBS wheels soon to replace the D90s

Looking to sell D90s if anyone is interested, will come with everything needed to put straight onto your 5x100 car, tyres have tread etc etc

 

[Scott-o]

Sounds good, what did you get?

 

[Whitechapel]

Some LM's...reps obviously but they are the dogs if you ask me! Going into the garage tomorrow where I will be fitting new exhaust to see if any good, if not it will be kept on and modded at a later date.

Will also maybe be taking rear adjuster cups out and to finish off if the weather is nice a full wash and machine polish

I love the fact i moved 300 miles from home to find a guy who lived down the road from me originally up north lives down the road from me and works at a Jaguar specialist garage in Guildford and will be helping me with the work

 

[Whitechapel]

So car went for a quick inspection by me and my mate yesterday on the car lift so we could get underneath it, a cat-back system will be needed to fit new exhaust so one will be bought very soon. Also wound the coilovers right down on the rear, will have a few pictures later today.

LMs will be fitted as soon as i pick them up and contemplating spraying number plate recess and lip of bumper rather than vinyl - not sure if this is the best way though. I think if i vinyl if will still bake onto the paint work over summer and peal the paint when removed anyway?!

 

[Whitechapel]

Been offered a mk3 golf vr6 in exchange for my wheels may take the opportunity to do a summer project with it
