[Berg]

Tbh they all bring the steering wheel closer which is what i dont like, im going to leave mine without one and sell the sparco one i have now

 

[Murdered LCR]

This is mine sits miles away

 

[joehirth]

I like that, closer is good for track really.

 

[Murdered LCR]

Can't run a horn tho lol not with that snap off run mine to a button tho

 

[joehirth]

I'll think of something, I'm trying to decide what to do with the horrible looking plastic where the centre console would meet the dash at the moment.

Looking good how you finding the seats? My Ibiza has gone now. Going to pick an mr2 turbo up soon

 

[joehirth]

I haven't driven it yet, the seats feel awesome. I just hope they're not too close haha.

MR2 Turbo :gay:

 

[cuprawill]

I didn't find them a problem to be fair. But they are bulky seats. There defiantly not a sociable seat lol. I just fancied something rwd for a bit of fun

 

[Murdered LCR]

Seats are awesome joe have a pair in mine love them

Looking good mate

Managed to nab myself a H&R rear anti roll bar (28mm)

Also took a look in the engine bay and thought the alternator looked a mess, as well as needing to remove the air con compressor I thought I may as well paint a few bits up, even got my sister helping me

Just waiting for my LSD from the US now, it's starting to hold me up so fingers crossed it won't take too much longer.

I also want to change my actuator bracket as I've never been happy with it. Got myself a smooth rocker cover too but not sure if they come with problems, could anyone who's fitted one previously confirm of any problems they had? Phil's cam chain tensioner rubbed??

 

[adr1ch]

awesome build mate keep it up!

 

[Berg]

Good news on the diff, much needed item on your car sir!

Now all you need to do is buy James brake kit so you can sell me your brembos

As for the rocker cover chris_200120vt has just fitted one iirc

 

[gazcuprablk]

Let me know how you get off with the actuator bracket I'm still without one on mine haha

 

[joehirth]

Cheers for the feedback guys. Sure I'll keep you posted Gaz.

Brilliant work, what a beast

 

[joehirth]

I'm having second thoughts about the car now

Debating whether I should sell/ break it.... I don't think I'll do it yet but maybe in 6 months time. I'd like to do a track day or two but I can't really justify spending anymore money on it as I want to buy a property soon.

I think I will hate having to break the car but I really can't see anyone wanting to buy the car as one

Does anyone have any input?

 

[R4cup]

OMG Noooooo dont do it

Really like this car, alot of work went into this it would be a shame to see it go.

I already own a house but i would pick a house over a piece of metal any day!

Do what you think is right for you mate but if you do decide to break it i want in on some of your goodies starting with the seat & subframes

 

[Berg]

Be a shame to see this broken what a machine, all the hard work etc

You will have to break it imo, i really cant see you making half as much selling it whole

Look at RobbieC for example, no disrespect intended because his car has such a huge spec its worth the every penny, but for someone to come and pay 9k for a cupra i dont think it will happen

Theres plenty of parts i would raid off this anyway lol

OR

Keep it and dont spend anymore money on it
