    Stickers

    got mine this week
  3. cheers dude ordered the sticker from the us of a 2 weeks ago and arrived this week
  4. Finally got a few little updates Cars been driving me crazy since i got it with mechanical problems which ive had to end up spending over £300 to fix now ive found out its got all the symptoms of a broken pedal box and VW wont to it as good will as i havent got full service history which is epic fail o well lets move on to the good stuff Picked up a new front end from a member of the forum as the last one wasnt pretty to say the least so that sorted that problem Picked up some recaros from a member on here also which im really impressed with , it feels like im being hugged every time i drive it also got a custom backbox made and had it angled to be different from the norm de-wipered the rear and sprayed the badges black Gave her a good old detail with DoDo juice supernatural clay , DoDo juice born to be mild , Sonus final finish polish and DoDo juice Purple haze wax and it came up like a baby's bum just a shame about a few carpark dents here and there but they will be sorted very soon Here's some pics of how its looking atm C+C welcome Next up will be sorting the wheels out .. i still havent chosen the right wheel for the car yet as i want it to be something very different from the norm so holding out .. in the mean time im going to put 155/55/14 tyres on space the wheels out 25-30mm to give it abit of stance and slam it , only thing about slamming it is that the front is on TA coilies but the rear is on bliestien springs which dont make no sense to me so that will be another next on the list also. on the look out for some blue centred tim tom rear seats so i can get the interior looking half decent aswell
  5. sounds awesome dude ! camber looks dirty there aswell like they said above i wouldnt run it like that as the tyres will fall off lol can you get a pic of how you welded that pipe onto the standard backbox please and did you just buy a 90' intercooler pipe off ebay ?
  6. Go away whoring your french crap sonic haha
  7. good base mate i wanted these wheels off him but u got there before me by the looks of thing if you want to sell let me no
  8. it was only a smallscanner and the mechanic said it cant read everything properly but came up exhaust gas and thas it but im going to have a propper scanner put on soon . it doesnt allow me to take it up to 6k and when i put my foot down it loses power at 3-4k so could well be in limp mode
  9. Not long had my 52 plate Lupo 1.4s and it seems to me like it has no power now i dont no if its because im going from a 170bhp fiesta st down to a 75bhp but it dont feel right and the engine warning light is on . i plugged it into a diagnostics reader and it came up exhaust gas so im assuming this will be a problem with the lambda sensor ? but will that cause it to lack power ? it doesnt feel responsive at all which is really weird , i assumed because of how light it is that it would be really nippy , i had a striped corsa b sri 1.4 16v before and the lupo dosent seem half as fast as that . the car also sounds like taxi when its running which again i find very odd seeing as its only 8 years old and done 60k , the previous owner said the car had a cambelt change but there is no paper work to prove this but maybe the belt could not be timed right would this cause problems power wise and making a horrible sound ? if anyone has experienced this problem and solved it can you give me a heads up as to what it may be please thanks
  10. not too sure mate possibly .. i want to swap it for an original one if ur interested ?
  11. Started doing a few bits to the lupo so thought i would start a build thread Bought it Tuesday 18th may for quite a nice figure and got cracking with it straight away Its a 1.4s and it came with TA coilovers and white vw teardrops , the past 2 days ive added my own little touchs to it - smart boot install with 1 12" kenwood sub and a 2 channel 900w fusion powerplant amp as temp for when i get my new set up split and sprayed the headlights diamond black also added white led side lights and de-tangoed the indicators mega cleaned up the engine bay and sprayed the rocker cover red fitted OEM rear lights as it came with smoked rears also sorted a few little things that needed doing on the car ive bought a new Bluetooth alpine headunit that im waiting to arrive and going to pick up some 6000k HID's this afternoon As for plans here's whats next on the to do list : Bodywork has 2 shopping dings on the passenger side rear quarter so getting that fixed Front bumper, grill and bonnet can do with replacing so on the look out for them atm then will get a de-badged grille and smooth the bonnet , also smooth the front plate recess smoothed boot on the look out for some new rimmage also looking for new leather interior not sure to look for lupo interior or golf mk4 or porsche tombstones clifford alarm Engine wise i want a centre exit exhaust like the sport but ive heard there's problems with the spare wheel well being in the way ? looking for a CDA air filter and posibly 4 branch manifold and im sure i will find alot more to do to it Anyways here's some pics ( sorry about the iphone quality ) hope you all like when i bought it :.: now:.: engine bay before :.: After:.:
