White Mk3 IHI Ibiza

[Lodgey180]

nice car i was looking at this on pistonheads... looks like its had a lot of work done

What intercooler is it running? Like the black bonnet and roof goes well with the white which is very nice on the mk3

 

[P77 BRU]

its a Pro Alloy intercooler, and its a carbon fibre bonnet mate
fitting standard rear lights tomorrow so will put up a couple more pics

Was the intercooler supplied with the ihi kit, is it a jabba conversion?

 

[P77 BRU]

yeah its a jabba conversion, it was originally running a forge intercooler, but got changed for pro alloy to push the BHP up a bit more i believe

 

[Dave_R]

No its not mate...thats another 1 of the 3 white mk3 cupras to my knowledge

It doesn't count if it's been resprayed in white lol

Nice car fella, seen a few pics of when the last owner did it all.... wasn't it in max power to.... sure I saw a pic of the mag on here somewhere.

It had a feature in Redline, and also featured in a Redline "fwd thrash" were it raced against fwd cars with silly power (for example a 400bhp Nova!)
The ibiza got the best 0-60 time of the bunch @ 4.98

 

[P77 BRU]

**correction** 2nd quickest 0-60, 1st was a 2.0ltr Nova with NOS

Fitted standard rear lights and stuck a cupra badge onto my ibiza. Opinions please...

I personally think the lights look much better, what you guys think?

before:

after:

 

[P77 BRU]

Standard rear lights now fitted

 

[Reuvers]

I actually agree...not a real big fan of the dark lights...however, with your car being partially dark (hood) and I believe roof, and the tinted windows they look good...

so I am not sure...

Cupra badge however looks ace...leave that on!

 

[p34ch3y]

looks ten times betta

 

[PhilW]

Tint them all red. Looks better with standard lights tho.

 

[P77 BRU]

any pics of all red ones? I'm guessing this is achieved with tinting spray? will this not be an issue with indicators/reverse lamps?

 

[Lodgey180]

loads better with them lights in imo.. good work

 

[Slicker]

love the colour and black roof. rims are perfect. the beast, especially under the hood.

Beautiful car fella Spotted this car in the flesh when I was going down to Newcastle a few months ago (when Pete had it). Been up against anything interesting yet??

Standard lights look much better! less chav!

Not really lol, im gutted! no1 with anything worth racing, won't! i'm thinking when i approach from behind brandishing a massive intercooler and carbon bonnet they get a bit intimidated! For exaple, behing a 350z, looked quite modded with young-ish driver...he looked in his rear view then pulled in the slow lane?? I'm getting frustrated now...really can't wait to come up against an M3/RS4 or something of similar power

haha! nice - Thats the problem with having a huge IC and CF Bonnet You never get the chance to show off the cars power! I bet Evos and Scoobys pull over too! I certainly would!

What car did you come from?
