build

Hi there guys, just got myself a 1.2 sx. The plan is to go down the ICE route instead of engine mods/remapping, due to it being only a 1.2 & i love my music. Now I'm fully capable of changing the stock speakers & fitting a new headunit. But I need some idea's for a 12" sub enclosure...

Seems as though my other thread has vanished :lol: so... we reminder of my car... 20vt, forge cooler, star map. yada yada :lol: copied from FCN... Well its taken all this time for the project to finally begin due to a problem with the car using coolant every other...

I seem to be having a strange problem with pressure build up in the cooling reservoir. I started the car this morning and the red light in the temp guage was lit and temp guage stayed at zero. I checked the coolant level which was below minimum but once I unscrewed thr cap there was pressure...

Ok, the old one was a little all over the place and messy. Lets start afresh. In the begining. Then. Painted the callipers Painted the wheels. Black side repeaters with chrome bulbs. Bee sting aerial, silver rings painted red. Pipercross induction kit. SCN sticker.

I personally dont think this would work but a friend of mine thinks i should take the spare wheel out and sound proof under neath it, then use MDF and mount the sub above where the spare wheel would be but with the magnet facing up. I don't think the bass would sound right with no enclosure...

Hi guys, been around and off and on with the show scene over the past three years when i brough my seat, i did originally want an LCR but insurance costs were insane at 19 so went for the 130bhp diesel. This was her soon after i brought her with a few little mods. Over the past...

Thought i would share with you some details of a car im building specifically for strip use. Its a scruffy looking 1998 Seat Ibiza Cupra GTi 2.0 8v - the car is very solid, a little tatty in places but nothing that cant be sorted. Cost £400 and i bought it off a Farmer in Cumbria ( still trying...

How about putting a 'key moment' list in the first post with links to pages of significant changes / information? It might be a lot of work, but it would help those who want an overview of the project without wading through pages of chat.

Been on here a while now... done a few small mods to the car so thought i would start a build thread...... im going for a subtle and understated look for my pre-facelift LC.... and hoping for about 240-250bhp ..... IMO thats enough for a FWD car... Mods so far: 17'' TT six spokes lowered...

We bought a Fabia VRs at the weekend to replace the G/F's Lupo. Now I've been toddling around in it and it's made me realise just how badly built and finished the Ibiza is. Better trim, much better soundproofing. Better ride quality and better driving position. I can honestly see me...
