Hmmm, not sure, but i want dibs on what ever doesnt go in.

If you fit the sub, dump the 6x9's, and fit some componants in the back. Best sound i've heard is 2 sets of componants and a sub.

I think the ARB should tighten things up, so not sure how much more the Rear brace would do.

 

[PhilW]

Make me an offer on the sub and amp, and if its good enough i'll throw in the wiring kit.

 

[Forbez]

Ok i will do.

 

[rogers]

u having the sub forbez, coz id be intrested if u aint

 

[PhilW]

Any offers boys?

Pics of me car at Trax yesterday...

 

[nogutsnoglory]

Looks sweet phil, nice and clean!
good colour match on the bump strips too, looks much better than with the grey ones

 

[adevtr]

Thats a very nice example of a blue cupra, i like very much!

 

[pj1985]

Nice pics. Looking good.

 

[acidstrato]

looks very sexy phil,

mines just getting killed these days, i cant be ****ed with all that malarky

 

[Forbez]

Will be sorting you an offer Mr Warren!

 

[PhilW]

Cheers boys, i'm happy with it so far. Just gotta look at the timing marks of the belt to check its right as i'm convinced its out a tooth as i'm gettin a camshaft position sensor fault code.

 

[Forbez]

Then we can fix mine! YAY!

Cars looking stunning BTW Phil.

Replaced the PCV on Sunday morning, and my 19mm bung arrived this morning, so may have the Catch Tank fitted tonight / next few days.

 

[PhilW]

Replaced the PCV? Why? We blocked the connection to the inlet mani.

Tom, alpine 4 channel amp, stealth box with alpine sub and fusion wiring kit, 160 quid. Bargain.

 

[Forbez]

Sorry, removed it Phil, not replaced it, had some 19mm hose left over, so thought i'd tidy up.

 

[PhilW]

Cool. Im gettin all braided hoses soon for mine. Ditch all the crappy pipework etc...

I'm a bit tempted to buy Craig's ProAlloy fmic as well..

 

[Forbez]

Proper braided i take it, and not braided covers?

Proper braided is bloomin expensive, but looks awesome. I looked into braided before.
