options

Hi all, My clutch is slipping at the moment and it is getting progressivley worse. I am a student and have limited money to be upgrading the clutch, but im just wondering what the options are with the clutch. I have seen mention of a G60 Flywheel and Vr6 CLutch, what is the deal with this...

Just wondering what sort of options are available for the 1.8T engine in terms of management systems. Obviously the popular choice is to use the OE item and upgrade using Revo, CC, etc. I presume I am right in thinking that unless you are a dealer of the above the average DIY tuner would...

So I have been investigating lowering options for my 04 Ibiza TDI 130 and need some advice.. I want to lower between 30-35mm as I want to take a bit of the height off the car, but still be able to get over speed bumps, potholes and through puddles without difficulty. After visiting a local...

Hey, I am fairly new to these forums and have recently (yesterday) purchased an FR, very very happy with it!! Curious about what tuning options I have available to me to give it even more pull (I am already thrilled with the cars' speed). I know a lot of people have cars remapped and I am...

Hi I've got an Ibiza 1.9 TDI with cheap 195/55/R15 tyres. I want to get a set of winter tyres now and then in spring will get some summer tyres. I was thinking Winter: 195/55/15 Summer: 205/45/16 or maybe Winter: 205/45/16 Summer: 205/40/17 or Winter: 205/45/16 Summer...

Hi all, as i wrote in a previous thread about my car being delayed, I am now wandering if i really want the panoramic sunroof and bluetooth stereo connection thingy! as teh car order was already in existance (i was sold a car that the showroom had ordered for itself), and it is not due to...

ugys, my exhaust needs replacing and britannia have quoted me £700 for a cat back system :cry: can you guys recommend me where to get a replacement one from. a local place from me called custom-chrome have quoted my bro £350 for a cat back system for his a3 1.8T, so i am guessing its gonna...

I have the 170 V5, it has a drilled airbox already and sounds great, but i really miss the any engine sound low down. I have a local powerflow dealership and they have been good in the past, but i dont know what i want. what are my options -1.) Hidden TDI style back box -2.)Tail...

What splitters are known to fit the FR / Cupra? I've seen the Cup Spoiler and like it, but it's a little out of my budget. So I'm after a cheaper alternative. Any suggestions? Photos would be great, cheers.

Seems like my turbo is on its way out - started making the 'police siren' noise and having searched this site that indicates that the bearings are most likely shot. It still drives well but I don't want to ignore it and wait till it breaks something else. What are my options? Where do...

Hi All, Just recently picked up a 55 Plate Leon Sport TDI. Unlike you lucky people with the brand new ones, I don't have a USB port nor ipod connector, although the stock radio does play MP3 CDs. I'm looking at my Options in terms of hooking my iPhone up, looking to achieve handsfree...

Right, have read various threads but wanted a list of tried and tested FMICs fitted to Cupra/R's, with best place to buy and what is required to fit. Also - has anyone fitted a sprinter intercooler? Have been offered one cheap.

Noticed this morning my rear spoiler brake light was hanging off and connected by the power wire the plastic on the back of it seems to have snapped so it doesn't hold in place, i can sit it back in, and it holds for a while, but eventually falls out after 30 mins of driving. The light...

Right After test driving the TDi FR last week for 3 days i reckon an order is on the cards. The problem is i am limited to how much i can uplift my quote on the lease system by so the options have to be carefully selected. I am going for Nayara Blue with the standard 17" wheels but am...

Now that i have a pair of stubby mirrors for my Cupra i want to show them off a little. Instead of painting them the same colour as the car i want to go for this effect: ^ Brushed alluminium AUDI RS4 finish. Im painting them myself using Halfords paint cans. Whats the best way to...

After replacement shocks and don't want to lower the ride or change the springs and wanted to know the options available and if there are any upgrades?

After 2 hrs of searching, reading posts, getting ideas about alloy pipes and then finding out Allards went bust and Forge don't as yet do a suitable kit, and there are issues with the SFS kit, I am now more confused as to what to do then when I started... My TIP popped off a few mths back...

Hi all, A friend of mine is looking to upgrade the suspension on his 51-plate 227bhp Ibiza Cupra. It's currently sitting on Gmax shocks and springs and the ride is horrendous, very bouncy and jarring. As a result, he is looking at getting something with decent ride comfort, a bit of a drop and...

I am looking at upgrading the suspension on my 04 FR 20VT, I want the ride to be as comfy but roll lots less! I am going for cupra front wishbone rear bushes and new topmounts etc. I have some SuperSport suspension sitting brand new in a box, however I have had second thoughts about fitting it...

Hi, I'm curious about getting a remap for my 20VT Cupra (not the 'R'). It is all stock. From what I can, a typical ECU-only remap would add about 20 bhp. What sort of performance difference am I actually going to notice from this? I've never had a car remapped before, you see... For...
