Mods as of tomorrow will be rear wiper removal

And I've just had a new Bosch battery fitted today so been v.busy

Also going to order some bits from sere motors in next few days, as I'm preparing the car for sale I'm going to fit cupra gaitors and gearknob and hand brake also going to get the cupra vent things and possibly the lcr splitter also going to get detailed end of this month so will update as and when I can

 

[stew002]

If you def selling the car soonish i am seriously interested in buying it but wouldn't want any more mods... i like the mainly stock look and would like to come look at it too.
Was the turbo fitted due to old one failing or for performance upgrade?

 

[cupra.al]

if your selling it why do you want to go removing the wiper?

 

[lee_fr200]

As I've said to stoo if he's interested I can leave it but until the money is in my hand I just want to improve its looks

 

[lee_fr200]

Just thought I'd put some current pics up

 

[Fisheribiza]

The white does look good

Hey Lee, i'm looking to upgrade the turbo on my pd130 as well, do you have a link to the one you used and was is a straight swap over? (obviously new gaskets etc but was it pretty much plug and play?)
Since it was a 160 turbo did you notice a drop in low end power?
Cheers mate and good luck with selling.

 

[lee_fr200]

I just left it to the garage mate and apart from it needing a egr delete it was straightforward apparantly
As for power this car pulls like a train with this turbo just holds its boost so well and doesn't seem to bleed off and if driven steady (I drive at 50mph on cruise on te motorway I get silly mpg )

 

[lee_fr200]

And it's still for sale just haven't rly tried to sell it yet

 

[8arran8]

Cheers buddy, was gonna give it a bash myself and see how it goes, darkside have a pd160 turbo so was gonna go for that.
Was the egr delete essential or did you just want it done?

 

[lee_fr200]

They said it was essential and that it would improve mpg.

The dash lit is on but it's not detrimental, if it was easy to turn off I'd do that but don't want to go down the hassle of mapping costs just to get the light switched off!

Absolutely loving the car at the minute had a nice drive over bridlington on Saturday and as usually hasn't put a foot wrong, I know it's up for sale but I can't stop wanting to tinker, so contacted seat surgeons in north Yorkshire about seat retrims and possibly the dash and door cards in leather or alcantara.

Anyone know how the airbag deploys through the dash as covering the dash could I suppose void the insurance if it stopped the airbag from deploying??? Anyone have any knowledge of this?

Also got its mot on Wednesday and another 12 month ticket going on it, think it will need some tyres as I've done 27k on these and I can hear a creak from the bushes so going to replace them as well which are preferred polybush or regular cupra items???

 

[lee_fr200]

Cars till doing well and just purchased a few items, first of all I've bought some cupra tdi clocks for the white top dials more than anything so will get them stripped down when they arrive

Also in the process of looking into a leather retrim anyone know any good trimmers or can you buy the kits to do yourself?

 

[lee_fr200]

Just ordered so me new LEDs to do the instruments when I take them out

Does anyone know if I can get rear number plate LEDs and which ones they are?

 

[thePHILosipher]

Seat surgeons not cheap just short of £1000 but it's s top quality retrim

[lee_fr200]

Will look into them, anyone on here used them?

 

[lee_fr200]

Still waiting for my clocks to arrive but Christ how small are the smds

So tiny think I may need a magnifying glass to solder them on

 

[lee_fr200]

Just an indication of size

Are these the right ones? Didn't realise how small they are
