Elliott's MK3 Ibiza Cupra Update * carnage has begun*

[CupraElliott]

Yeah. Me. There nice aren't they? Keep checking the for sale section mate.

 

[Robbie C]

Looking very nice Don't forget that HiSpec's R114-4 calipers also fit under standard Cupra wheels, using 310x28mm two-piece discs. I've just fitted these to mine and have plenty of clearance under the standard wheels.

 

[CupraElliott]

Mmm brakes B)

Few other little bits and pieces that I will update over the weekend.

nice to see a change from brembos. they look really nice!

 

[CupraElliott]

Yeah there a nice bit of kit. Hopefully with the Brembo style pads, braided lines and 5.1 fluid they should stand upto the power.

Best thing is I didn't pay the VAT

 

[tarzan]

looks awesome mate same brakes i want one mine.

 

[CupraElliott]

Few little updates.

Got a bra for roadtrips.

New gauge

All the plastics and roof lining done in black.

 

[Damoegan]

Looking good dude

 

[redcupraboy]

Good work bud, really like your boost gauge as its a bit different!

 

[CupraElliott]

Yeah I love it, there's a slight delay mind with it being electronic, but only about 1 second.

 

[weekesj]

All the plastics and roof lining done in black.

Very nice man, interior looks so fresh and modern now. This is definatley on my list of things to do!

Did you paint all the plastics yourself?

 

[gazcuprablk]

lookig good m8, what you doin with the comp's m8? are they 4 sale?

 

[Spud_G40]

Loving your car mate, went for the best colour too. How hard was it to do the headlining etc? Is it alcantara you used? and did you take it all out to do it?

What did you spray your intercooler black with? I might do that just don't want to make it less efficient if you get me........

Also very interested in the compomotives MOs, been looking for a set for ages! Hands off Gaz you've got a set ya greedy bas****!

 

[CupraElliott]

Plastics were painted with Halfords vinyl paint.

Roof lining was sprayed with fabric paint for now, I am really struggling to find any alcantra or alcantra style fabric for a good price.

Intercooler has been powdercoated, I sprayed my other one with rattle cans and it doesn't last 5 minutes. Can't say I have felt a difference in performance.

Comps will be for sale soon, in the middle of refurbing them.

Thanks for the comments

Hi Elliot,

You done a fantastic job on the car with the Ziano products. I find Z2 Pro works the best on red cars

 

[Ibiza125]

Could you tell me about/show me pictures of your brackets for your Wilwoods? I got a 256mm kit and trying to get the brackets to 280mm, bought a kit from rally design and it doesn't seem to include more spacers, just longer bolts..!

So yeah pictures would be great

And a free bump on a great looking car!
