Emocion Red Cupra.... Now with Camo Bonnet!

[Guffers]

Well, i've been lurking and posting long enough. Time for a thread in here!

Cars a 2004 Ibiza Cupra (180) now REVO Remapped to around 210bhp.

Used to be owned by a guy on here (Cuprastoo) before the guy i bought it off of.

His Thread- Part 1-- The Beginning

As i got her

Typical Scottish weather as you can see!

Next up

UltraBrite LED Sidelights and HID Kit as standard lights were like candles. Also obligatory LCR splitter and Seatcupra.net Stickers. (they add 2bhp each)

Yet more..
Cash boost at work so on went the new 2.5" Cat Back Blueflame from Ebay

 

[Guffers]

Standard vs Blueflame

Annnnnd some youtube links for the rather sexual sound it now produces!

Exhaust 1

Exhaust 2

On goes the 007p and some new red vac hosing...

After much knuckle scraping i managed to get the previous owners vent mounted boost gauge into the centre vent. Not recommended if you dont have skinny hands!

in went the VW HU from ebay again, i think its from a Toureg (or however you say it)

New decals from a certain member on here.... (total B**** to get lined up!)

Old Boost gauge (which popped and stopped working)

New shiny boost gauge from Hellfrauds which has a red backlight..

Open cone filter added so i can hear my super dooper whooshy valve better

Will get a video up at some point, sounds REALLY noice!

And finish with some nice arty shots from my bros Digital SLR

Any and all thoughts welcome, will continue to update as she progresses!

That looks fantastic mate. Wish I'd have bought the Cupra when I got my Ibiza

 

[CupraR210.DJM]

Looks wicked mate, loving the wheels with the pinstripe against the red paint. Looks mint.

 

[ROB IS THE STIG]

Looks bang on mate, like the gauge in the vent idea!!

 

[Guffers]

My hands still haven't recovered! Worse bit it getting it to all fit in again!

 

[Adz.21]

Car is looking fantastic, love your alloy, they look really good

 

[oneofthetwins]

nice wee silver car there

 

[cupra.al]

car looks good.
That silver ibiza does that have a painted front splitter?
them rear lights look very different without the rings in the lights.
what you got planned for the car next?

 

[turbo009]

Looking good,liking the wheels with red sides

 

[simonthekane]

Looking good, like the red outline on the wheels

[Damoegan]

Looking good dude.

Remember it when Stu had it.

 

[Guffers]

Just for anyones information, Oneofthetwins (twats) is my wee bro, and is now the proud owner of my old car. (sort of!)

New pics!

As she arrived...

In the glorious wasteland that is Cumbernauld Town Centre....( but makes an awesome sound when you drive through the tunnel!)

And the natural habitat of my cars, the farm car park.

...:::Update!:::...

Got some new Rage semi buckets for the Cupra from eBay at a good price. I'm a pretty tall chappie and i find the standard seats VERY cramp enducing!
Hopefully will go very well with the red/black interior.

Problem is they didn't fit, but as my wee bro had an ibiza handily lying around off the road i had plenty of time to get it right.

Plan is fit to his car, get them perfect then swap into the Cupra.

So......

Much cutting, drilling, tapping, painting, measuring, bolting and swearing later.....


Drivers in and fully functional

(harness is in to see if i like it or not)


Will get pics up when completed!


And i now have.....

















The ultimate Marmite mod....










Bunnet Bra!

And i love it!

 

[Gooner_Mike]

Looking good buddy! Is that the Autobra bonnet bra? I like it...

 

[Guffers]

Aye, autobra one. If i can find out somehow what the Cupra font is in the back i'm gonna get it embroidered just above the nearside headlight.

 

[cupra.al]

looks good i like bonnet bras but i wouldnt have one myself.
that last picture of your car looks like you need a new tyre might be wrong but does look quite illegal.

 

[Guffers]

Bit of update goin on here.....



First off, got a Forge TIP from eBay, total biatch to fit, had to chop 20mm off the end to get it to sit right! But now sounds awesome under load!

Also got some drilled n grooved Audi TT discs off eBay again, and some TOYO Proxes T1-R's from BlackCircles.com (great service) for the front, an the old ones were a bit baldy.

Tyres have a nice wee stretch on them now too!

Got all this fitted at Morrisons in Stirling, and i must say, superb service! I dropped it off after a 12hr nightshift at 8am, and it had to get a 40k service, new discs, new tyres, new pads, and exhaust welded but they still had it ready at 4:00.

Bit sore though at nearly £600!


Next up is new engine cover in carbon!
