Good to see it all fixed. I had the same sought of damage to my red ibiza, shame it had abit of bodywork damage to it aswell.

Car looks much better on them standard wheels imo.

not sure as it has koni suspention on at the mo with 40mm spring and adjustable damper rate so dont want anything that will be worse was maybe goin to look for a lower spring but want it lowlol

well today i thort my ars was warm turns out ther was money burning a hole in my pocket so i decide'd to spend some

this is what i got red hosein another breather filter as other one was used on eco valve thingy

this is the bay as it is all vac lines are pretty bugerd so they will be done in new red stuff aswell as some other bits started bits such as breather and few red bits but this is how it is now will be painting rocker and charge pipe wile im at it

 

[jay26]

resistors been orderd now too

think i need a new cupra wheel or a set of dif wheels all together after the curb

 

[burnsey]

What size VAC's you using mate,they look chunk lol

 

[jay26]

on right of pic 4mm vac left is 8mm for other bits and bobs ie vapor tank ect

 

[jay26]

thinkin bout these wheels what you think

 

[jay26]

got some more hosein before i started today

todays progress (before)

after

 

[jay26]

blew a boos pipe off today left me stranded till a mate came with a pair of pliers decided that im now goin to replace all boost hose clips for the h/duty ones as ther is a few of those stupid spring type ones left on the car and could do without this happenin again

 

[wilz]

Not a fan of all the red hoses but a do like the balck rocker cover

What did you use to paint it?

 

[jay26]

high temp paint and pipes need to be routed better i know but they all needed replaceing and i saw red on ians car and i think that looks sweet

 

[Reuvers]

hope my honesty is slightly appreciated here, but that looks like a mess.

there is hoses all over the place? and where is the resistors you ordered? Plus what I really don't understand is what the second breather filter is for on the left of pic??

rocker rocker does look good though yes

 

[jay26]

i know its bit all ova at the min when i was putting them on dint want to mess up wher they went to so dint think about hideing them will have another go at it now its all in place and as for the resistors still had nothing turn up at my home yet. and as for the other breather it was to go ontop of one of those ecotec valve thingys that previous owner had fitted


dont give up on me yet tho im new to the seat world and im still learning i will do better

 

[Reuvers]

well its looking better than it was sure. but like you mentioned try and hide them a bit more, or run them along fuel line etc, instead of directly over block.

as for the breather I still don't understand. Have never seen 2 before...

 

[jay26]

it has one of these fitted in the vac pipe to side of inlet for some reason

 

[jay26]

am i on the right lines mate its dark as now so will get back on it tomorow

before

after

 

[MIkey kc]

that does look alot better, the big red vac pipe running on top of the injectors would look better running under the inlet mainfold, or if you like it there get some small sip ties and tie it to the metal part of the fuel rail (donmt tie it to tight tho so it restricts the flow) so it will look straight so it looks neat!

looks good tho mate i like the black and red theme!
