That is GORGEOUS! Really really nice! :thumbup:

Hope you have more luck with your strut brace - been waiting months for mine now and still no news. :cry:

I'm afraid it's the same thing here... Ordered mine about a month ago and also still no news...:(

But with saving for the hybrid, the strut brace can wait !:D

That looks great.

Loving the wheels. Are they OZ Paladios?

Yep, they're Palladios...

Ibiza - If you're willing to buy it, sure...:D I've been looking at a new leon cupra, but found that it's too big of a stretch finance wise, so will try and get as much as i can out of this car (in a reasonable amount)...:) A reliable 220-230hp would be enough for me for the time being.

good work how did you remove the EGR valve?

Car looks lush make me miss my platinum one.

There are 5 screws holding it in place. First remove the ic pipe going to the egr, and then simply undo the screws and take the two vacuum hoses out. It's a bit fiddly cause there very little room, but just takes a bit of nerves to do.:)

The car's currently up for sale and going to see how that goes...

But in the meanwhile, got my strut brace finally! :funk:

Can't say it's made quite a difference actually... But nevertheless it's a new mod! :D


Dropped the plans of going hybrid (too expensive), and hoping next for some new tires and possibly a rear ARB...

Put on new tires yesterday - Cooper Zeon 2xs. They're 205/40 r17, but have bigger rim protection so I'm havinh trouble with rubbing again, this time at the rear also!

Will have to look what to cut off now!:D

Heh, You're just a little bit too far from me...:D


Anyway, dropped the selling idea cause i got a few things fixed and feel like driving a new car now!

Had the 3. gear sinkro and front wheel bearing (thought it was the steering wheel making some noise) done and put a 2,0 tdi MAF. I thought my turbo was saying goodbye cause the car was staling and didn't go as it used to...

Tried the new maf and WOW! A hole new car!

Am happy with it again now and looking at getting a whiteline rear arb before the summer (hope i can get it here somehow).

If not that, then i'll probably have a cupra turbo put on and map it again to some 200 hp.

Wanted to go for a hybrid but it was a bit out of financial reach...:(



Oh, and thanks for the compliment on the car!:)
