  1. Well in our country the LUPO EIBACH kit comes with front and rear bars and some other small features as well. But any of ya know what Tigz meant by the difference between Eibach and the origi anti roll kits? Shall I be aware of something?
  2. RESPECT, Jenson!!!What a great race. Whatever your feelings for Jenson are this was his race and I wish to see him on 1st place more in the future(even if I am a scuderia tifosi style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blush:" border="0" alt="blush.gif" /> ). Congratulations from Czech republic to Jenson and to Honda!
  3. An interesting opinion Tigz. What is the problem with the Eibach? I was opting for one...it seemed quite sophisticated as it does not include only front strut.
  4. Hi there. Any 1 tried this anti roll kit from Eibach (or any other anti-roll kit)? Does it work. I need to stiffen the chassis. Considering buying 1 as the chassis of the Loop feels very soft and free to roll style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":huh:" border="0" alt="huh.gif" /> comparing to a Saxo VTS or 106 GTI. G.
  5. Thanks for the answer. This oil costs 3-4 times the best gear box oils (at least in our country). Any ideas what it is different in? I was thinking of using Castrol or Mobil1 oils but dont know the specifications. Does anybody know? Thanks for the answer. This oil costs 3-4 times the best gear box oils (at least in our country).

  6. Hi there. Any of ya guys know the specification of the gearbox oil? I was told by the guys from VW that it does not need to be changed ever so I dont need no specifications as it is a VW speciality this oil. I had a debate on this issue with a friend of mine working for Mercedes and we both agreed that it good to change it after 40k miles (Just our opinion) as it gets the hell sometimes style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> . I think I will need 2 liters. I was thinking of using 75W-90 DOT4. Any other ideas or proposals? style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":confused:" border="0" alt="confused.gif" /> P.S. Concerning the engine oil for those of ya willing to change it I needed 3,5 liters in a GTI (well I poured 4 liters in and had to let 0,5 liters flow out). style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> P.S.2 Any ideas if the new 1,4 TFSI (about 200 BHP) engine will fit into the Loop? style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />
  7. If you are a least a little bit skilled and you have the equipment needed you can repair it at home. Takes max. 1-1,5 hour. Look at the How to... section. It helped me a lot. Mine contacts were rusted and falling apart but I repaired it. Saved me a lot of money style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

    What ET?

    Regular Lupo GTI wheels either 15s or 16s ET 35 is suggested. I think ET 32 would do the job as well.

    Do you? style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Honestly Tigz this is the only web for LUPOs and AROSAs that has something to say...and search the web well before style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> Really like it mate!

This is a "must have". Georgeous mate!!!
  11. Hi mate, How hard is to set the limiter to 7500? Sure must bug in the ECU. I am interested in but found no 1 so far who would be able to work on it.
  12. I know. No worries mate. Your evil will Rock and Roll as well style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> I am sure!!!
  13. Holy f**k! You must be f**king great sport motor builders. You have my RESPECT!!! Well good luck to Tigz putting his babe together and to you LINCOLNSHIRESLUPOGTI many many miles with no problem. Guys I am so sad that I dont live in UK or at least near by... just trying such an evil machine style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> once in a lifetime. Or at least hearing that evil screaming... Oooohhhh it must feel like motor heaven! I hope I will be able to download the videos including the sound style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />
  14. Dont worry with the consumption. I have mine GTI with no mods. When I brought the baby home I did 170 miles (approx. 250 km) on 1 full tank, full throttleing only 70-80% of the journey style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> But had a lot of fun with it and a smile from ear to ear style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Congrat to the beast!!! Shame I dont live near by I could hear and experience it style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":(" border="0" alt="sad.gif" /> Must be georgeous!!!
