new from glasgow!
« on: December 17, 2011, 12:00:49 pm »
hi everyone! signed up a while ago but forgot all about it haha. Im Alex, currently driving a mk3 seat ibiza cupra in ovni yellow with a few bits and bobs but looking at possibly upgrading to a mk5 gti/ed30 or possibly r32 next year when i start the next year of my apprenticeship and have a bit more cash to burn! but until then i thought id join up to see the awesome cars on here! My friend is on here alot, not sure if he posts but he has a stunning mk5 gti with k04 etc and stage 3 map which is the main reason i know i want one haha! Ill pipe down now.

quick pics/spec list of the cupra so far incase anybody cares :sad1:

as it currently stands on the seat sport superturismos

and one from crail earlier in the year!


bought the car pretty standard bar a map and the cat back but the spec at the moment is as follows

Engine:
Revo stage 1
k03s
Forge TIP
Forge 007p
Forge oil cap cover
N249/N112 bypassed
vac hoses replaced with silicone items
Green filters open cone

Handling/breaking:
Ap coilovers
312mm brake upgrade from s3
front upper seat sport strut brace
rear upper strut brace
28mm Rear Nuespeed adjustable ARB set to medium
front lower strut brace
20mm rear spacers (soon to be changed for 15mm to avoid buffing)
16" OZ seat sport superturismos (clear the brakes where as the standard wheels needed spacers)

Interior:
Nomad A-pillar with single pod
Autometer phantom boost guage

thats it ATM, got a big 2.5" front mount to fit over the christmas holidays and other bits and pieces ready for stage 2 map ASAP. Also other wee bits to tidy the appearance such as re-vinyling the b-pillar as the car was sprayed last year, repainting the calipers, refurbishing the wheels (they have been poorly rattle canned black before i bought them but no point refurbing till the roads/weather improves!

think thats enough haha
