ND-Photo.nl 's - Seat Leon ST Cupra 280

[tracktoy]

I did the H&R 28mm Front & 26mm Rear Anti Roll Bars part number 33851-4 but I have the 5 door hatchback so fitting was not an issue

have a look at DPM Performance that is where i bought all my suspention kit and they offer great advise in my opinion.

It seems to be an ever increasing minefield re the "fitment" of many parts these days.

What a nightmare, can you return it ?

I sold it as it had installation marks on it. I did not drop the subframe or remove any control arms, so it was a good game of snake and tetris getting this bar into place before trying to clamp it down on the mounting points.

Lost a little bit of cash on it, but thats ok. You win some, you loose some

I managed to get some confirmation via 034 Motorsports as to the fitment models, but the locally available option is Aus are either
- the same size (current is a 21.7mm bar) with 22mm solid bar being the readily available - A$350ish (Prospeed)
- Bigger at 25mm, but MUCH more expensive A$620 (Integrated Engineering)
- Best option but stoopid expensive at A$890 (034 Motorsport) with an extra A$250 for the replacement links .....

And given that none of the suppliers even know what a Cupra is an list it as a model that the var fits, it makes returns more difficult

Thanks for the information @Michael_LeonV ! My personal choice would be to go a bit bigger

My exhaust cutout control box has 2 remotes, but it seems the previous owner did not know what size battery fits in there

You need type "27A" batteries if you have these kind of remotes

Bought a new low pressure fuel pump. This was a very easy swap! And some good insurance for a proper running car

I opted for a Hella unit

The fuel pressure regulator sits right next to the pump unit

A very simple setup

Quite some sand, always clean before you swap out the pump! The flap that I made with the alubutyl works perfectly as it allows for easy access

Agree 100%, but the cost is crazy and options slim.

I had to have the revo pump fitted as I was suffering with fuel starvation on some inclines on the Cadwell Park track.

Noting on the road just when pushing the car to the limit on the track, also had to have a software upgrade to support the new pump since that was done I have had no issues.

I have seen some other stuff being way more expensive in Australia, like Adobe software etc, it makes no sense other than a simple cash grab
