What are your number plate bulbs? Ive never looked but changed them on my last car- gives a nice touch at night. Are they 501's? Got LED's in the interior and sidelights not got around to the Rear plate

do you have any subwoofer in the trunk mate???

looks very low for just 35mm

love the color and the drop!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[kenny_fr]

Nope no subs, boot was empty. That's just the drop you get with the kw springs.

Thanks, yeh i think the drops perfect really recommend kw.

 

[AddersHTID]

looks awesome lowered mate! i need to get mine dropped!

 

[MrTSI]

hey kenny,
hows the ride quality with the KW?

because im looking for some springs too.... and im between KW, WEITEC (same company but cheaper than kw) and H&R (but i heard is very stiff)

do you have shocks too??

 

[gonesurfing999]

Hi mate! Your car looks mega! Colors all seem to work well together. Can you post a link to the bulbs you used please? Im getting mixed information on the forum as to which reg plate, interior, and indicator LEDs to use. Cheers bud

Well its been a while since I updated this so tonight while giving the car a quick wash I thought I would show off the latest mods.

H&R 12mm spacers fitted to the fronts to match the 12mm rear ones.

And the best mod so far, an ITG maxogen induction kit. (battery in boot option)

Definately makes a big difference to the mid range and the acceleration noise is just amazing! Not only that but i've also noticed an increase in the mpg too.

Also bought a spoiler ages ago but I've still not got round to having it fitted yet should be soon though. After that its onto new wheels

 

[kenny_fr]

Since the weather was a bit better today i decided to give the car a pre winter detail so heres a few more up to date pics plus a few more of the itg filter.

Thanks for looking!

 

[Aaron_Cupra]

What spacers are you using mate? They look perfect

 

[Aaron_Cupra]

Just realised, H&R 12mm. Looks bang on though

 

[WeeG]

Looks great mate

There is a rolling road day on Saturday at ecotune in hillington if you are interested. It starts at 10am

Cheers. I'm pretty happy with the way its spaced just now as the wheels were really hidden in the arches before. Might change the backs to 15mm's at some point so the wheels are more flush with the arch.

Thanks!

Dam it! would have loved to have gone but sadly have other things i need to do. Cheers for letting me know though!

Well its been a while, keep forgetting to update this thread,

Not much happened with the car over winter due to the weather but the modding bug soon set in again. So the spoiler was fitted along with a TMC tuning box!

Only tried the box on setting 6 so far but already it has made a noticable improvement to the mid range which was seriously lacking.

Anyways heres some picks

 

[mwillis551]

Looking well

 

[kenny_fr]

Thanks, its getting there slowly. I'm pretty happy with the power now that the TMC box is in, I just can't decide on more performance mods or to lower it more and get new wheels.

 

[mwillis551]

What wheels you after?

 

[kenny_fr]

Can't really decide tbh. I have a set sitting but i'll need adapters and coilovers to pull it off. Either that route or something like compomotive mo6's its all down to money really.

Car looks wicked mate! Love them in speed blue, I think you should go for Mk1 Octy VRS wheels in white , think that would look great or Pre-facelift mk5 FR wheels in white
