Get any pics?

What do you reckon? Did it look alright?

 

[ibiza_1.4tdi]

nah i didnt mate, i only got a peak through the door, there very professional there though and i wish my local dealer was half as good

 

[Altech]

thanks mate, ive heard you getting coilies, how much you dropping yours??

I've dropped mine roughly 80mm at the back and 60mm at the front. I'll update my thread in an hour or two and you can have a look at the pics. I think my ride height looks perfect now...I went over the largest speed humps around Brent Cross shopping centre today and I got over them fine. I have to drive up my driveway at an angle now otherwise I'll scrape the front end

 

[ibiza_1.4tdi]

lol, im not suprised, myn 50mm frnt and rear drop but speed bumps by me are the sump killer type, a mound in the middle and nothing ether side so cant go that low. looking foward to pics though

 

[Mr_Dave]

Looking good with the Bachies and Milltek on..
That suspension will be nicely bedded in by now, was never bad on the Beeza

Glad you seem to be enjoying the Milltek as much as I used to

 

[ibiza_1.4tdi]

tar mate, got the suspension checked and aligned today and passed with flying colours mate, it drives nice now. Plus its the nicest sounding tractor ive ever heard lol, quiet when you want it and "meaty" when you boot it

another up-date**

ordered some bits from DPM:

- Eibach front ARB
- powerflex front wishbones/front bushes
- powerflex rear beam bushes

Cheers DPM 10/10 for service.

then got Cupra front wishbone/rear bushes

and 2 new goodyear GS-D3 tyres.

all to be fitted saturday morning, should help the handling a little bit me thinks

 

[AndrewJB]

Nice list ,

how much that lot cost ya then

 

[ibiza_1.4tdi]

dont know yet lol, not fitted

tyres are £100 each!!!
cupra bushes £15

cant member DPM, have to find the invoice out. fitting gonna be expensive bit.

 

[ibiza_1.4tdi]

got the Eibach front ARB fitted - cupra front wishbone/rear bushes fitted and powerflex front wiishbone/front bushes fitted, totally transformed the car.

got tyres fitted however GSD3's are now being phased out so i had Goodyear Excellence tyres fitted. very good little road noise compared to the Pzero Neros and grip well in the wet.

Next upgraded on the list is AUDI 312mm brake conversion. funds allowing

 

[stezo2k]

sounds like an expensive upgrade worth it in the end i bet mate
