Its hard to decide really as they are totally different cars. Had the pleasure of driving both extensively and there are many pro's and con's like any car.

Depends what your after to be honest.

VTEC is fun, and the Civic is a nicer place to be, although a little harsh.

Then again cupra's have BOOOOOST and the german build quality, not that Honda's are bad though.

Exactly, and tbh type-r arent slow either, obv wont feel as fast as the cupra due to the aggressivness of it lol

I still love type-r's and one day ill probably have one, might wait a couple years and get a dc5 :D

love this car..intercooler looks beautiful :D

Cheers mate, might re-route the bottom pipes to hide them a bit more in the bumper so they arent on show as much, still undecided though lol

Very nice looking cupra mate, i cant wait to go k03s :D

Cheers, Its worth it ;)

i think the h&r front bar mounts the same as the oe one, the neuspeed one uses drop links. the std one is 21mm iirc so is it worth changing it for and h&r 21mm??

thought cupras ran 23mm anti roll bars on the front, i bought a 23mm anti roll bar by mistake but if it is 21mm it's win win

So is it better to get the bigger bar then? neuspeed 25mm?

Will be doing the rear as well hopefully will notice a difference with them

i may be wrong then but i thought it was 21mm and tapered down to 19mm at the ends.



Berg...i went 25mm on the front and 28mm on the rear (neuspeed), lowered on collies it handles a treat.

Rolling Road Day

Went to Northampton Motorsport today with another club

Car ran a not so impressive 221@fly but an impressive 278ft/lbs

Ive been told the car is running quite lean as the lambda reading at top end was LambVt(x100)[max=102.58] which i was told it should be running this kind of number at cruising speeds not at top end and should be reading in the 80's

Been advised to drive carefully and get it back to Jabba for some tweeking.

Im hoping its due to the intercooler and pipework i put on pushing the extra air through which has caused it but im not sure tbh

Heres a few pics from the day anyway courtesy of some club members
