7k is that it
Had an old ek9 with a teg engine... Bounced at 9.5k rpm! Hit tec at 4.5k.... Had 5k revs of vtec lol
-
You have my old one?
Aye mines could blow the shizzle out of 1.8t's
But a remapped one on a stock tubby can go pretty quick up until about 80 but then loses puff! Heak soak on the standard intercooler is also an issue
-
I have seen an arosa with a gti rear bumper?
The bumper doesnt sit flush with the arches but it still fits on? Thats why i said arches had to be modded
-
Front end is interchangeable
You'll need
Gti wings
Slam panel
Grille
Lights
Bumper
Rear bumper is interchangeable but you'll need a centre exit exhaust... Which is a pest as you'll have to doctor the spare wheel well (gti has no spare)
And the gti has wider rear arches and sideskirts so you'll need to figure something out
Probs better buying a gti tbh
-
Well id say they'd be pretty identical
Had fabias in all forms
Standard
170bhp
220bhp
Theyre quick mapped but by no means rapid
I think a mapped vrs vs gti would be identical
The gti would muller it in the twisties
Im good bud! Not been interested in cars for a while, just passed the half way mark of my year ban! Im actually looking for a lupo gti for the other half
-
I think a lupo gti would run with a mapped vrs
But personally id chose the fabia everyda

Get onto seatcupra.net
Load sensor fault is a snapped cable that sits below battery tray
Common fault throughout VAG motors of the time
Peanuts to fix
-
It will be fine with shims on
2 wheel tracking only on a lupo anyways as the rear beam is fixed!
-
Higher mount should be able to do from the top? I know you can on a golf?
-
Yup lenso centres look poop!
Smoothed looks 10x better
-
I have a spare set of eibach bolts if you end up needing them
£15 delivered
-
Are you lowered?
If your lowered there will be far far more negative camber required by just adjusting the 2 bolts on the strut im sure you could get to -3/-4 degrees which looks pretty mad
-
wheel centres will need to be professionally milled out for safety

Fan packed up in traffic on hot day

Yikes that doesnt seem to good
Tell him carb cleaner is what you want lol
-
Yeah get it scanned
Redex shouldn't go in throttle body, spary carb cleaner in throttle body and rev the car
-
Guffed throttle body?
-
Yes thats why i said poorboys ssrp 2.5
Heavy enough cut to make a difference and easy enough to be done by hand!
-
Try some poorboys ssrp 2.5
Then a wax ontop will hide it a bit
-
Im a little confused?
You've stripped an 05 plate car and put an exhaust on that will probs fail 99% of sound scruiteneering at tracks / rallys

More to the point 17 days late with tax... Tut tut

Couldn't give a monkeys
gti's definatly need coilovers
in Volkswagen Lupo
Posted
****!
you probs have lowered springs with standard dampeners?
i ran uprated shocks and matched springs and it was bloody awesome!
a proper matched set of springs and shocks will out perform most coilovers with ease
