graeme2 Posted June 6, 2011 Report Share Posted June 6, 2011 Hi, haven't been on here for a few months cause i sold my old lupo, but since then ive got another one. It's a x reg black lupo sport. i had an old rover mini for a while but just wasn't for me so back to the lupo's Planning on doing alot more work on this one, kind of gave up on doing anything to my old one because i didn't see the point of spending so much money on a small engined car with no extra's when i was always going to get a faster car sooner or later.Old Lupo.New Lupo. lowered on springs, Scorpion exhaust and gti interior. other than that pretty much standard.Plans at the moment: Tidy up the body work theres a few bits here and there, some KW coilovers, and then some wheels and just planning about with wee things inbetween.Graeme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

graeme2 Posted June 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 (edited) Looking good Never noticed it has gti aero wipres! Once you have wheels it will be sorted What sort of wheels you going for? oem?Im not totally sure yet, just looking about at the moment sitting really nice. aare the coilover wond all the way down and do u struggle with rubbing , cheers ashthanks, the rears are wound right down with the adjusters still in, but the fronts could still go lower but anymore and there would be alot of rubbing. It only rubs going round a corner up or down a hill but its not that bad and its fine on flat ground haha Edited June 13, 2011 by graeme2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobLUPO Posted June 14, 2011 Report Share Posted June 14, 2011 (edited) Oooh looks nice! What is the scorpion exhaust system like? If you could do you think you could post up a sound test as I'm interested in what types of exhausts there are for Lupo's Edit: Also just out of interest how much are you looking for the Koni lowering springs?
