Hey all,
I originally bought the car as a Cat D stolen recovered.
Now for the pics!
Damaged alloy
Bumper removed, fillered, smoothed down, primered
My handy compressor
Bit of a problem
Driving my car the other day and it had no go like the turbo was not there. So i drove a bit more to a petrol station stuck some fuel in. I pulled of and it shot of like i just stole it thought it was a bit wired as before there was no go in her.
So i thought m.a.f sensor on...
Had a progress thread previously but stupidly deleted the photobucket pics so thought i'd start again. Anyway finally got it lowered and apologies for not being on SCN for a while :ban: life's been a bit mental recently! Enjoy
(before lowering but still a nice pic i think!)
Welcome to my readers ride thread of my Ibiza FR 20VT (55reg). As my thread is getting quite long I thought I would edit it so that this first post is an index page of the mods I have done and the main photos I have posted.
Mods so far
Honda stubby aerial, Debadge rear, Desticker...
saw this on the group buy section under badger 5 and it looks good
call me stupid, but where does it actually sit?
I am guessing it spaces out the inlet manifold?
just thinking of buying one, but when I take it to the garage to get fitted, I at least like to know what I am talking about...

Sorry, just browsing seat site and saw that there are no longer any new 1.8t FR's listed as an option. So they stopped using the 1.8T in the ibiza now??????
never saw anything on here about it:confused:

Hi guys,
Hoping someone can clear up what sort of fully synthetic engine oil I should be using in my 2003 Cupra (standard 180bhp spec)??
I've searched and I've heard good things about Millers but there seems to be some confusion about which spec it should be (e.g. vw503.00, vw503.01, vw502...
I'm looking to get a remap after christmas (prob feb/march) and would like peoples comments on the difference from standard.
I've got a mk4 cupra 1.8T and who would you's recommend? and whould I need and mode for a stage one remap???
Thanks
Hi All
My 2001 Cupra has been in the wars recently, at first it would intermittently idle poorly and generally feel flat when warming up which turned out to be the coolant temp sensor. This has been replaced and those symptoms have mostly gone away. The problem is, Im still having engine...
im very sorry if this has come up time and time before... :(
But im wanting to know what the differences are between the 1.8T 156 BHP engine and the 1.8T 225 engine.
If you could tell me internally externally etc everything, thatd be awesome
Thankyou :D

I am currently running Ibiza Fr Revo stage 1 soon to be stage 2. I change the oil every 5000 miles but should I change the plugs at the same time? If so should I use OEM or better/different plugs?
Thanks
I've searched and been looking for one foe ages and just cant finde one. I've seen them for the TDI's so surely someone does them for the petrol version.
Does anyone know of anyone or any way of doing it??
A mate of mine is having probs with his 1.8T
It's losing power and its recently cut out on him.
Haven't had it VAG COM'd as of yet.
Anyone know what it might be?
Cheers
Hi,
I've got a 2003 Leon Cupra 20VT (180). I've had it for about 3 months now.
I've always had this splutter / kangaroo / 3 cylinders problem when the engine is cold. There is also a slight hesitation on acceleration once in a while.
I've read loads of threads on this and so far I've...
