1.8T Chap

Hi everyone, im after a new performance exhaust system for my 99 lupo 1.4s 16v. Im wanting a system where the tailpipe remains hidden in the standard position and give a nice sound and flow a bit better than standard. Can anyone recommend a supplier?? Thanks.

Hi, Can someone give me the part numbers for the 3 section centre cap on a bbs rm alloy wheel please. The numbers i have are; 09.24.134 for the outer metal ring 09.23.212 for the inner nut shaped part 09.23.221 for the BBS badge Is this correct with what you have?? Thanks.

They are RM002 et33

Hi all, just after some advice really, ive got a set of bbs rms that im getting powdercoated soon (pics to follow) Just wanted to know what size dishes to get, obviously bearing in mind i dont really want them poking beyond the arch, but want them to fill them out as much as poss!!! Had in my head 1.5" fronts and 2" rearsmaking them 7.5 and 8 inch wide, not sure on offset Will these be suitable, my lupo is a 1.4 16v not a gti with the flared arches etc Should i play safe with 1" front and 1.5" rears? Please help!!!! Thanks.

Hi does anyone know where to get a 4 branch for a 1.4 16v ahw lupo from if you can get one?? Cheers.

How long will this price stand for, im hoping to buy at the end of this month.

Im gonna guess its either one of these 3; 1) throttle body 2) lambda probe 3)temp sensor

Yeah it was cool ta, had the flu for past 4 days though!! Just been reading your update, looks cool as ever, keep up the good work!!!

Heres the treat that i promised you!! Its a GTi Leather steering wheel with optional Fantasia Green stitching!! Hope you like it?? A couple of other bits for me to fit arrived today too.

The tyres are 175/50/13 front and 195/45/13 rear. Next on the list of things to do is tidy up the flaking interior grab handles by fitting new ones, Fit new door check straps, Got a suprise coming too, maybe after christmas now as its on backorder, stand by for pictures. Nothing major planned although am keeping my eye out for a 1.8T engine!!!

The wheels are 7x13 and 8x13 with 5mm spacers on the front wheels to clear the caliper. I had the standard 14's on it before without scrubbing but i have damper adjustable coilovers so can make it stiffer or softer. Will have to adjust the suspension to make it more road useable but i love how its looking now from what it looked like before considering it only cost £400!!! Im going to buy the front foglights and wire all that in and have also got my eye on a genuine leather gti steering wheel with fantasia green stitching!! The guy wanted £70 for colour coding the bumper but he sorted me out as he owed me a favour!!

Bit of a picture update, still bits n pieces need doing, but its getting there, will try and post regularly to keep you updated!!

Im doing exactly the same as you, going from a tuned 1.8T golf into a lupo 1.4s, ive got the lupo and am currently doing it up http://forums.clublupo.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=34447 There built pretty much the same and the handling is so go-kart like now its been lowered its wicked and can easily outhandle alot of larger more expensive cars which is always fun!!!

Ive purchased a DAB headunit and need to wire in an amplified aerial which is supplied, problem is im not sure how to remove the headlining? Has anyone removed their headling before and wouldnt mind replying with a how to? Thanks.

Ive bought the ATS Classics and tyres just awaiting the spacer kit required to clear the front calipers then ill get them on and post pics for you all.
