just won £1500, what to buy??

[bristolsparks]

happys days is here again

Just won 1500 quid on the footy today,

what to but tho, that is the question, as you can see from my sig, only got a few mods, but i am ordering upper and lower s3 strut braces monday

any ideas on the rest of the cash?

 

[dg-1984]

Good tyres, ARB's, strut brace, REMAP, dog bone mount, cat back exhaust system, and a universal FMIC just to name a few mods that i'd like.

Congrats on the win...

First words on most people lips will be remap, and since you seem to have a fair bit to burn then maybe go for a stage two remap. Big brakes would be a good way to get rid of a large amount of that cash.

Personally though if it was me that had just won £1500 on the footy I would be using half of it to gamble on more matches 3 game accumulators are the way to go.

turbo back exhaust, fmic and remap!

 

[bristolsparks]

yeah 3 game accumulators are are good way, think i did a 9 way today, was very chuffed when it came in, took a few gambles and it paid off, only bet £5 aswell, bargin

well im ordering the upper and lower s3 strut braces monday, have emailed ollie at ths for dog bone and few other items.

thinking milltek non res and whiteline rear arb aswell

 

[Crafoo]

I can vouch for the Whiteline rear arb mate, I got mine from Awesome last weekend and fitted it, it makes a huge difference to my Ibiza, no doubt you will get the same results on your Leon.

9 way! that's pretty good going fella, I had an 11 way going a couple of seasons ago and the last team let me down by drawing 0-0, I was on for about £1500 too for a £10 stake I think it was, proper gutted lol.

turbo back exhaust, fmic and remap!

if you want performance i would go down this route too, may need a bit more cash though so a 3 game accumulator may not be a bad idea

 

[bristolsparks]

right i order the rear arb from dpm, should be here tuesday so i can fit wednesday
Ordering the s3 upper and lower monday morning when they open, again hopefully should be here for wednesday.

then maybe bite the bullet and get a forge fmic, milltek non res or coilovers or something similar

then ill get stage 2

 

[dg-1984]

I know the forge FMIC is really good but expensive the universal one thats been posted about recently looks great and fraction of the price, can use saved money for other mods.

 

[bristolsparks]

i did see that thread and asked what is the difference, cant just be the brand name that puts over 400 quid on the price? would like to know the difference if any i think before i make up my mind

 

[J0N]

Drugs and prostitutes. Oh, and a remap.

 

[bristolsparks]

best answer all day Jonny, i like your style

Im going to get the handling side of things done first, no point im having lots of power if you cant ut it down and use it

 

[J0N]

Sounds like a plan.

 

[LEE69]

Nice one on the win, was a miltek in for sale

handling mods for 1500 quid

quaife atb diff.. £1100

rear arb. 150
tt wishbone bushes 20
s3 upper and lower 80

4 wheel laser alignment 50

then add some good tyre on the rears first £200

total 1580.. near enough. youll love the way the car handles then matey

 

[bristolsparks]

thanks for the ideas, like i said order a few bits already whic our coming tuesday

whiteline rear arb
s3 upper and lower

where do i get theses tt bushes from and DIY to fit?

 

[james walker]

vw spares for tt bushes.

they will need to be presses in for you, but the wishbones v=can easily be diyd. but youll need alignment afterwards.

Ultimate Cinema surround system, HD heaven

I'd say spread it around the car to improve the whole thing; uprated suspension, brakes, air filter + exhaust, remap and finally a damn good service
