i read up on your connects2 nightmare, seems worth it though.

looking good.

lol there are other kits out there which don't require this sort of nightmare, but this was a present and so I cracked on with it :)

Love the car, and bloody love the wheels. Think D90s are great!

Thanks fella, always good to hear the appreciation :) I do love it to!

wow, nice mark 3. great mods there

i love the 'no jap shite' sticker. lmao :D

[B)] thanks pal
 
Had a milltek cat back system sat in the garage for months now and finally decided to get it on the car as the standard system was tatty, knocking and blowing badly!!

So....

And the system to go on

With this in mind, phoned around various garages and no one wanted to fit an exhaust without selling me there own product and all the usual crap lol. I also wanted the middle silencer that was changed for a mild sport note some point in the last couple of years, removed and welded up. The only people willing..... (gets ready for flaming comments)

They quoted an excellent price and were happy to carry out the work the same afternoon but had a little problem getting on the ramp, shall be hopefully addressing this in the future, but i'm not winding the coilovers up, no way.

Please ignore the bloody pulley / belt whatever the noise is! sounds a lot louder in the video for some reason :(



Quick noise video's, haven't driven the car since to do many more!




I'm thinking flames when it goes for spirited drives and fully heated up?

 
looking good matey, cheeky f**kers. atleast you got it sorted.

Thanks bud, I keep an eye on your thread on OEM site, what happened to your carbon badge?

Great videos, that second one makes it sound mean!

Stickers are also great ;)

:) cheers, should of made some better ones though as that was after I got home, its settled in a bit more now as the system was sat around for a bit, alot more whistley! :D
 
Made a nice little fix today! :)

By boot decided to do the common fault of not locking itself since the bad weather, and also for months the boot handle has been getting stiffer by the day and doesn't shut on it's own accord anymore :(

So I got hold of another (note the old one lol)

Removed the old, simples

Now have the smoothest handle and easy to open boot, and one that locks! lol

 
loving the car mate and love them wheels, keep up the good work :)

p.s i like the stickers also :)

lol there very marmite the stickers, even i'm a bit umm'ing and arrr'ing about them some days

I love the way your ibiza sits on them d90's, need to get mine back on asap. Only thing im not keen on is the "c u p r a" badge on the back. The rest looks spot on.

I do want the back lower when I get the archs all sorted out and stuff, I was keen on removing the "CUPRA" and stickers from the bootlid along with other bits I have but I think it would look a bit plain then if I do
 
You've got me going crazy over this now! I've done around 10 vmod's with the "CUPRA" and powered by seat sport sticker on the bodywork and I cannot for the life of me decide!
 
Peel them off nice and slowly and if you dont like the look of it with them off put them back on again.

I just think with the image of the car the stickers on the windows add enough colour and something different. i just find the "cupra" abit chavy. Only my opinion.

yeah im not a fan of the cupra badge either mate, it doesn't go with the theme imo of course.


lol I enjoy the window stickers but I think the CUPRA badge has to come off for a trial to see if I like it, I like the MK4 Cupra's with that badge so liked it on this one but now I'm not sure as never really looked at it long enough lol

If I get some time on the weekend i'll do bits on the car :)
 
Pictures do the talking, although these are quick vmod's but look the same lol

And a **** pic from my phone of what it actually looks like, think removing the badge and sticker from bodywork is an improvement after all, need to come off anyway if I repaint it :)
