what would you do with 2 grand on an 8 Valve cupra

[TazKendo]

Hey All,

I'm going to be playing about with my MKII 8V Cupra soon , I have a couple of G's to get any bits that I choose. Already done the exhaust

Just thought I would put out the question, what would you do with 2 grand to an 8 Valve cupra?

Cheers all.

i would have said turbocharge it, or supercharge, but i've spent £4k on mine, so maybe put the £2k in the bank and let the interest build up lol and come back when you have enough

alternatively, a lot of handling mods, coilies, ARBS, polybushes and some nice engine monds, High lift cams, stainless exhaust, air filter

As above then strip it out an track the bas*ard!! you could get a mean mark 2 going with 2G to spend on it.

What do you want from your ibiza??

Coilovers are always a good buy

 

[Jib]

Buy my 16v

Nope still sat on the drive.

Washed it the other night as someone was coming to look at it and instantly fell in love with it all over again........that was until i took it for a spin.

It just isn't as patch on the way the Rallye drives......and it really pains me to say that

 

[crezz]

they are loveable! lol...all the pug ralllye's are quality, even the small 106

 

[Jib]

They certainly are........every time i pull up on the drive behind it i say......."god its gorgeous"

I do wish i got one in Topaz now though.....ive loved that colour ever since i saw yours on here!

Sorry for hacking the thread!

 

[crezz]

yeah im glad i found one, rare as rocking horse turd! lol..... back on topic, get some sort of suspension set up to sort the handling out first

 

[Jib]

yeah definatley suspension. Makes the world of difference.

 

[TazKendo]

Thats not the same 16Valver from the "You know you have a MKII when" thread is it??

Sorry, but I don't want to get rid of my wee 8 Valver. I have replaced the exhaust got coilovers, the handling is prettu much spot on I reckon, so I guess I'm aiming for more engine performance.

"i would have said turbocharge it, or supercharge"
I didn't think you could Turbo and 8 valve, can you?

 

[crezz]

i think everyones car has been in that thread! lol

 

[Fl@pper]

i think everyones car has been in that thread! lol

[Jib]

 

[crezz]

[Jib]

Stop it! Its making me want to sell the rallye not the ibiza haha

 

[Jib]

I didn't think you could Turbo and 8 valve, can you?

Of cause you can!!

 

[AlpineWhite]

But is it worth it, that's the question......

 

[Jib]

I'd say not! Buy a valver, you won't regret it.
