Mr.Badbrains Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 Lupo stays in the carage again waiting for summer to come. I was forced to drive it few days in snow... Not fun at all with my ground clearance. Exhaust took quite a beating... Im lucky Ive got a 4wd for winter.I was looking through my photos to get some motivation back. Thought I might as well share this one.Night Rider by L Myyry, on FlickrReminds me of the photo in my first post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Badbrains Posted May 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 I said I'll never bag my Lupo. Oh well...DSC_3007 by Leevi Myyry, on FlickrDSC_3008 by Leevi Myyry, on Flickr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Badbrains Posted June 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2015 ...And who ever said that mk3 Airlift fronts would fit straight in Lupo. Well, they won't. Not even close. I'll get my angle grinder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted June 8, 2015 Report Share Posted June 8, 2015 Where are they not fitting?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Badbrains Posted June 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2015 That bracket to the wheel hub assy. In Airlift strut it was 22mm wide. Where it bolts to, it is 25mm thick, at least in my case... I grinded the brackets down, so they should fit now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Badbrains Posted July 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) Lupo has been on air for a week or so. Few leaks in hardline setup and I already managed to break the bracket for manual valves, but besides that I'm quite happy how it's working. Frame is still not notched and arb is still in, so it will drop some more. Rear wheel fitment needs some tweaking as they poke and arches sit on tire, but fronts are pretty much where I want them.And somebody might notice few other changes from last year.

Mr.Badbrains Posted September 27, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 So I made a new purchase one day. Blaupunkt Sydney with Bluetooth streaming and all. Couldn't be much happier with the oem look and sound is just fine I guess. Made a new bracket for the KPC dual needle gauges and swapped matching white LED backlight in them of course.Now just someone sell me a set of leather seats!

My_Names_Buck Posted September 27, 2015 Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 Wow, just wow this is one seriously intense looking lupo can't believe this is the first time I've noticed this! Looks simply stunning and I'd go as far as to say my favourite looking lupo I've ever seen! So many choice modifications that come together to create a package like no other! What size tyres u running on the 9's on the rear mate? Ps. Some great looking photos as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Badbrains Posted September 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2015 Thanks! Tires are 185/45 all around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Badbrains Posted May 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2016 It's that time of the year again and Gti gets back on the road. Little maintenance done. New timing belts, water pump, spark plugs, oil and filters etc. Ditched the manual valves and wired in some solenoids and Avs-7 switchbox. Trunk install is getting done next week as well as the Exips are getting painted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Badbrains Posted May 18, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2016 (edited) Fixed non working passengers power window. Such a little problem but took about three hours to get it working.  Now if I could just connect to ECU again. Edited May 18, 2016 by Mr.Badbrains Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
