My MK3 Ibiza Cupra

Well sold my much loved polo the the other day.

But now i have replaced it with a 2001 Seat Ibiza Cupra 1.8 20VT

The spec:
Revo stage 1 remap to 206bhp
Catback Milltek Exhaust system
lowered 30mm
spacers on the back
Bailey fully recirculating dump valve

here are a few pics will get some better ones soon, opinions welcome

im sure i saw you driving into halfords today at about 11ish

Right well bought my cupra 2 weeks ago and thought id start a progres thread!

here it is as i got it.







Here is the spec:
Revo Stage 1
Bilstein Shocks
Lowered 30mm on Eibach Springs
Cat Back Milltek Exhaust System
Boost Gauge
so the project began and i got a civic stubby aerial, an lcr splitter , and wiring in my my boost gauge in









so i wired in the boost guage so it fades with the existing dash light and moved it out of the cupra r guage holder into a single guage holder, which i think looks muchbetter





what do you think?

have more plans in the pipe line, fmic and milltek downpipe

great cars these

whats on the wish list then mate

want a

milltek high flow cat,
Fmic of some sort
induction kit of sort not sure yet though
lower it a bit more probably on h&r cup kit


its a bit of a change anyway from my polo 60Bhp - 206Bhp

very nice

looks cool

Got some bits ordered this weekend so a bit in the pipeline now!!

Since last update
LCR splitter
Have sprayed the interior door handles gloss black looks mint am really pleased pics to follow!!

coming this week
Big Jetex open filter
Silicon 45 degree joiner to go with it
silicon vac hoses to clean up the bay a bit
speaker adapters to get some better speakers in dont know if this will make a difference without changing the HU

Coming soon
Milltek Downpipe with high flow cat
Front mount of some sort possibly THS as i haven got loads of cash at the moment
Some new brakes (hopefully)
Forge tip (unsure due to the fitting)

In the future
New suspension not sure what hight yet
New wheels (schmidt modernlines if they will fit)
further silicon goodies and engine bay clean up!!

Jetex arrived yesterday and its huge

well fitted my filter last night sounds really good just got some slight adjustments to do and got to fabricate someting to support it

Coming along nicely mate, I really like these motors.

Right had a busy weekend tidying up the engine bay and adding things

Added the jetext filter
fabricated a braket to stop it moving around

Replaced all vac tubes with blue silicon ones

N249 Bypass done

Stainless steel battery cover
Fusebox relocated!!

Pics to follow!!!

i really like these there was a stunner at the detailed meet today

As above i have had a busy weekend and here are the pics of my work!!

Wasn't helped by the flat tyre i got on friday night screw in the tyre




Rolling on 2 inch wheel with 20mm spacers i think it needs 50mm hahaha!!



Anyway after i sorted that out with a new tyre on saturday I got to work on the stuff id planned

1) Replaced all the vac tubes with silicon alternatives and carried out the N249 bypass








2) Fabricated a bracket to hold my new jetex filter in place its not solid as a rock and doesn't look to bad either!!!





3) Relocated the fusebos and added a nice shiny battery cover



Im very pleased with it all the bracket looks nice and holds the cone well, and the DV now makes a much sharper noise!

Here are some pics of my resprayed door handles that i did a couple of weeks ago in gloss black






What do you all recon

looking good hope you have left a little bit of play for engine movement in that filter setup keep it up
