getting a bit bored driving around the ibiza everyday looking the same, and Im out for some easy modifications to be even more satisfied with the car , instead of buying a new one, and wonders what opinions you others have?

1.Respray the car:

Blue?
Original black metalic?
or
Black gloss ? ( the very skiny one but easy to see scratches)

2. Coilovers? brand? any good ideas? (stiff, but comfortable)
FK 2variant?
KW?
koni?
others?

3. Catback exhaust (oval rear silencer with Nice roar on flat pedal, but quiet on easy regular drivin 50-60mph)

Miltek (doesnt come with oval end?)
supersprint?
scorpion?
blueflame?

4. Tip (ko3 turbo)
usable with bigger turboes, k03s, hybrids, ihi?

5.turbo to intercooler pipe.

is LCR usable?
others lookalike lcr that goes around engine instead of crossing it?

6. new headunit with dvd? not to expensive?
Any ideas?

7. eyebrows or not?

8. how difficult and expensive is it to built an lcr 225 upset, with new map, 265ish, for the ibiza? what parts is needed

Anybody got other ideas of upgrading parts? :D

DO NOT PUT EYEBROWS!!! you'll be ultimate chav...

as for lcr setup not worth it. get a ko3s on there and a good remap and you'll hit figures around 240...(with minor adjustments like FMIC)

To be honest... Who actually gives a ****?!

Do what you want to do, dont rely on others to make the decision for you...

This way when you make your own decision, you'll be happy and you'll know its something you really wanted.

End.

harsh but fair.


A black paint spray over will cost a lot less than changing the colour to blue unless you keep the interior and bay black.

getting a bit bored driving around the ibiza everyday looking the same, and Im out for some easy modifications to be even more satisfied with the car , instead of buying a new one, and wonders what opinions you others have?

1.Respray the car:
Not unless it needs it, but if it does in OE colour to stop putting future buyers off

2. Coilovers? brand? any good ideas? (stiff, but comfortable)
KW Variant 2, lower to look at and makes the car drive like new (IF fitted properly!!)

3. Catback exhaust (oval rear silencer with Nice roar on flat pedal, but quiet on easy regular drivin 50-60mph)
Having had loads of exhausts and being underwhelmed by most of them I'd say do this last. On a very high power car you see some gain, but on mid power it's just not goo enough. If you're only after the sound then fair enough.

4. Tip (ko3 turbo)
Seems reasonable, but you won't se any physical difference each day unless you open the bonnet

5.turbo to intercooler pipe.
Hmmm, not a big benefit

6. new headunit with dvd? not to expensive?
Alpine all the way. Double DIN fast iPod

7. eyebrows or not?
No, not even in jest

8. how difficult and expensive is it to built an lcr 225 upset, with new map, 265ish, for the ibiza? what parts is needed
LCR upset??? :shrug:, you mean engine/gearbox.... Pretty expensive I'd imagine

Anybody got other ideas of upgrading parts? :D

Upgraded ARB's, lightweigh alloys, better tyres, driver training, bigger brakes. All depends if it's all about "show", or "go".

was a bit loud in a nice way, but he had took rear seats out.

With the seats in, I would imagine it's a nice rumble. Not OTT
