[Scott-o]

Thanks EL!

Yeh Rich, roadnoise is pretty loud but the exhaust sounds awesome when you open it up more than makes up for it!

Did a 14 mile round trip with my mum as a passenger last night lmao she didn't approve of it, but I did manage 40mpg

 

[Damoegan]

Agree about the sound they make, still miss the sound of my old one

My ED30 NEEDS at least a cat back system but more inportant things to spend my money on at the mo

I remember this from over on CC|UK, Looking spot on Scott, wonder if you reconigise my username

 

[Scott-o]

Did you ever have your interior out damo? They sound crackers then haha my mates edition 30 has got full turbo back decat on it now, sounds awesome!

Yeh course I recognise it Sean, what you doing back on here? Finally got a proper car?

 

[Damoegan]

No mate, never had the interior out. Will need another go of your's when I see you next

 

[Scott-o]

Haha no bother! Not really any different except a few gadgets and the wheels. Hopefully get my seat in by the next rr day!

Pads turned up today and collected from my weekend work:

Had a thunderstorm earlier too, it actually washed my car for me haha love the hd wax

Yeah bought a SEAT Leon, haven't put photos up yet but will do in due time. You off to GTI international?

 

[Scott-o]

Ahh nice one! How come the change of heart on the astra? Guessing you got a diesel, you'll have to get that mapped up!

Tbh Scott the depreciation killed me in 18 months, having done 26k miles I'd lost a hell of a lot of money, plus I liked the Leons and wanted to go back to the 2.0TDI 170PS engine I had in the A3 I had before. so found a 5 month old Leon in Leicester, in white, done 4k and it was an ex-demo which sealed the deal so the dealer themselves actually owned it.

We need to meet up one evening sir and have a chinwag!

Lowering springs, alloy refurb if photoshop comes out right and map or box.

 

[Scott-o]

Sounds good! That's the way to do it so a large chuck has already been lost, but not by you

Plans sound good, I do like the 170 engines, dads golf has one in and I was impressed by it. Think
If I got one it'd be getting the dpf delete and a proper map, bet they go like hell after that! My dad just won't do it though lol

Wouldn't bother with a box on a vag car, the ecus are that adaptable the proper maps are miles ahead

 

[SeanH]

Wonder I should go Revo for the map?

 

[Ibiza 130 tdi]

Hello mate - obviously seen this video?

I know you're friends with R32 Rich so probably have Sounds pretty awesome! As for the black Ibiza all polished up, you're trying to make me miss mine aren't you? They really do look good all polished up

 

[Scott-o]

I always use a bloke up here in stokesley Sean!

Yeh Rich did that for me on it's first rolling road outing! Havnt seen him since then, was hoping he was going to turn up at the last one too!

The black looks awesome after the treatment I gave it, that blackhole stuff is awesome! You missing yours mate? It was a steal tbh, if it was up when I was looking for a cupra I probably woulda went for it lol shame your not closer, could have a meet up and swap rides out haha R32 noise is dreamy!

Sound, will have to get price off him nearer to the time! I've whacked some pics up of mine now, SCN is quiet most days isn't it?

 

[Scott-o]

Used to be dead busy but since they deleted the for sale section allot seem to not bother any more!

Yeh when your ready I'll pass you his number. He's done plenty 2.0 170 vag engines!

 

[Hartosh1]

Ahh you *******! So jealous! Looks unreal!

My mate who's dead into his mk2's swears by the 8v's over the 16v's aswell. Still wish I bought that silver one a few weeks back but I'd be so so skint lol I am now without a second car!

I will get one sometime haha

 

[Scott-o]

Picked my seat up from work, over the moon with it, so so nice! Pics:

Mounting plates that came with it:

Fancy Cnc jobbies for an e36 BMW 3 series. Strangely enough the bolt hole spacing near enough matches the Ibiza, just have to see if itl all bolt down and line up though.

The seat also came with a right hand side mount and 2 homemade brackets for the left side, which were fine but the homemade one won't let me adjust the front of the seat upwards at all so I can't get the right angle. So probably going to have to make my own for that side or get the current one extended. also ordered a black 3 point willians harness.

Not sure when I'll get a chance to have a crack at fitting it, I'm not in any rush!

 

[cupra.al]

i like them,shame there not reclineing and folding not that you need that without backseats in.
they look like there a neoprene wet suit material.

 

[Scott-o]

Didn't want reclining seats in the end because I've got nothin in the back and they won't be much lighter than standard, so just end up been a waste of money, except road hold I guess haha if I end up liking the seat and living with it okay I'll get hold of another for the passenger side so they match!
