at the moment its on polo gti suspension from the 9y polo I think
and ive had a look around and seen a set of Ibiza cupra 1.8t mk4 45mm lowering springs inoe they fit but what do you people think ?
-
same as the above comment I haven't heard of a shaft snapping.
ive got one 54 plate owned it for 6months its got a green cotton filter, catback and a remap and dyno'd at 175bhp
fuel wise its not bad £20 gets me just under 200 miles, no faults since ive owned it just had it serviced that's it.
ive also got a hybrid tuned 04 plate has covered 170k has the following:
pd150 hybrid turbo
decat
6 peddle clutch with solid flywheel
focus rs intercooler
audi tt 312mm brakes
cupra r rear brakes
stage 1 map
cars around 200+bhp
drives mint pulls quicker then 270 - 300 bhp cars ive owned in the past, use it everyday no issues £20 gets me around 160miles

hi everyone looking to put lowering springs on my fabia vrs
wanted to no if I could put lowering springs off say a Octavia vrs, cupra 1.8t ect ?
also what would be the best ride height to lower to as ive got 17" alloys on ?
car was lowered previously 80mm on coilovers to wants fun to drive as the gas leaked on them
now on standard suspension and don't look right and handling has become rubbish.
-
-
get a diagnostics done on it see what fault codes pop up its a lot easier then guessing
-
stick coilovers onit
get it mapped but for the best power gains you will need the supporting mods
for example:
induction kit
intercooler
exhaust
decat/downpipe
n249 bypass
silicone hoses
uprated d.v
ect ect
also I would think about uprated clutch and solid flywheel you will be shocked at the difference
oh and for remaps you should go for somthink like revo, jabba sport, r-tech ect and go for a live map aka a custom code remap as it will be set for your car and can be changed and set to future mods ect unlike your standard stage1 remaps
-
air flow meter
glow plugs
or your intank fuel pump
I had the similar prob with my 1.8t would cut out when you start it and wouldn't pick up and wouldn't rev passed 4k when idling turned out to be fuel pump and whoever fitted the induction kit put the airflow meter on backwards, running a lot better now.
-
the round one goes on the airflow meter if you have a induction kit
and one goes on the hard pipe to the d.v
and im not sure about the last thin twisty pipe
let me know what difference you feel on your car with them on mate
-
This is mine, the front grille is different now..
how low is ur car
-

I have one of the most powerful fabia "vRS" in existence - probably 100bhp more than this yellow one, and I rarely get wheelspin in 3rd (wet only), and never get it in
get wheel spin a lot in mines everytime I put my foot down ?

So you don't mind your dad risking his license to MOT cars, the DVLA do conduct spot checks. With the current electronic recording of all results, should any anomalies be found in the test data your dad could lose his license or his job,
like I said he works in a mot station never said hes the tester
-
Two tone shadow chrome powdercoated
got used to seeing this colour on cars its really popular now, recently it was gunmetal grey
-
The only downside is fitting the cat again at MOT time

not really a problem either my dad works in a mot station
-
my yellow octy has a 30mm drop in springs and the black one was one a 100mm drop on coilovers either one is a lot better then standard suspension you will feel a big difference in it compared to standard

that's the same code I was getting from a faulty maf sensor.
try unplugging it, then plug it back on and put the ignition on for a few seconds you should here a whine from the engine when the ignition is on that would be the car resting, with till it stop then start it and clear the codes.
if that don't work all other suggestions are that the new maf is faulty or the wiring is damaged somewhere.

I fitted a golf decat down pipe and an O2 sensor spacer. Fitted ok and no fault code for cat eff threshold can't remember the exact P code. Now I'm battling the dreaded P0171 air leak code unrelated to decat just anothe vRS saga.
the codes and stuff are not a problem to me will just get it mapped out and are there any down sides to this mod >?

If you live in Birmingham, just get it booked in with a friend of my mates who runs a custom exhaust garage by the B.C.F.C ground, called rjperformance exhausts. I have got my vrs booked in Jan for a custom down pipe and decat. He charges £150 to do a down pipe and decat. I already have a cat back system on my car that was done by Jay, and I was chuffed with the results, even the local garage i use to work on my car have said what a brilliant job Jay done on it.
As for power gains, I dont know tbh. I am having this done along with a few other bits (sfs tip - the big bore one, carbonio cai with ram air filter) before I have the car mapped by either rtech or shark
ive had a exhaust done from jay on me last 4 vrs's all with screamer kit ect sound good, my new one has a jetex catback but its got a leak from around the middle box and where it joins the cat. I can take the middle box out myself but as for the cat and down pipe im getting a new one for 60quid.
