Jamie's Mk4 Ibiza Cupra...219bhp & 244ft/lb 11.4.13 - Exhaust =D

[Cupra_Jay]

Not got a thread in here yet so thought i'd put one in

Brought it brand new in June last year..only had 5 miles on the clock!!

First mod to it was a DVD flip out head unit, isnt the best of qualities but does the job quiet well...and it seems that lots of women like it aswell for some reason!

Most of my time and effort is going to be spent in the engine making it faster and look good. this is something along the line of what i am aiming for:-

First engine 'mod' i did as to go to my local tuning shop and get some blue Samco vacum hosing

I also brought myself a boost gauge aswell

My next purchase was a Forge polished strut brace, really easy to fit and brightened up the engine bay nicely

I then had to get a new A Pillar pod as the one i had originally got was a shocking fit (turned out to be a universal one) so brought myself a Nomad a-pillar pod. I got a friend of mine to spray it black so it looked more standard than after market

A nice little surprise i had when i went to collect it, the paint he used had a bit of red metal flake in it, shines up really nice in the light. goes well with the red bits in the interior to

I eventually went about fitting it into my Ibiza after working out how to get the old a pillar off

Apart from the purchase of some Spanish style plates

the car stayed as it was for a good 6 months, due to work, and saving for a holiday with my mates

After a while though, i was made permanent at my job (after being a temporary staff for approx 10 months) and was earning more money as a result so could afford to spend more money on the car

First thing on order was a Forge re-circ valve and a Green panel filter

I then ordered myself a LCR Splitter to give the front end a slightly more aggresive stance

Not had a chance to fit the LCR splitter yet, but should be done soon

These are my future plans for my car:-

1) Forge TIP - being brought end of month
2) 15 or 20mm rear spacers - being brought end of month
3) HID kit - prob at end of month, money depending
4) Get 2nd gauge and wire up
5) Coilovers
6) Jabba remap

And thats about it at the moment! Will update as the car progress's!

cheers, have got loads of photos on my computer where i have got threads on other sites that i keep updating

Looking good

Get those coilovers

cheers, think my car is in need of coilovers after seeing your's and rash's ibizas, just a case of saving up for them and then somehow sneeking them round the old folks and getting them fitted without them noticing..which will be interesting but prob do-able as there not the smartest when it comes to cars!!

 

[Ad Lav]

Same as mine, why's the car noisier, and lower and got no boot handle... umm!

 

[Cupra_Jay]

i'll just tell them its a figment of their imagination and the car is fine!!!
