James' Black MK3 Ibiza - Gone to a new home

[IBIZA_W1LL]

Wow that is a lovely car you have there if i can get mine to look anything near as good as yours i will be very happy....

I know this will probably seem like a while ago but... Do you remember if the strut brace made much difference? also would you recommend the coilovers? have you played around with cupra suspension + lowering springs and can compare this to your coilies?

Congratulations.
With patience and calmness became a 1.4mpi, a beautiful machine.
Congratulations, keep up your esteem and good taste

Thanks mate. Strut brace made a slightly noticable difference IMO, I can justify it for £50

Never bothered with cupra suspension or springs, but i would recommend the Weitec GTs all day long. They ride nice and handle well, and are really well made being KW owned!

Think ill have to fork out for the weitecs and the strut brace then thanks!

Car looks great!
Love Mk.3 Ibiza's, great example of one matey.
Needs an update, been a month!

 

[artemis_1991]

Got nothing to update other than its massively dirty!

Love this car!! Looks epic,

Just wondering how do the twists fit? much rubbing? and how wide are your adaptors?

Just picked mine up so was wondering haha

 

[artemis_1991]

30mm on the back, 35mm on the front, front fits ok, bit of rubbing on full lock, backs rub quite a bit.

And mine isn't really that low.

Just read your whole thread James. Makes me miss my mk3! Though there were a lot of things I don't miss, but they really are great looking cars when you go down the OEM+ route!

My bro got a 5 door 1.9 TDI mk3 so I've been helping him do bits and pieces to his, so far all he's done is tidy it up and put a Cupra spoiler on it, I must point him in the direction of this thread for further inspiration!

 

[artemis_1991]

thanks a lot mate

 

[CupraSean]

Hmmmm. Whats faster than the 1.4....EVERYTHING! Not sticking with the 'S' Badge? You need to give us more clues than that!
