i was just lookin on a performance disc suppliers site and it says all of those models have the 312mm disc set up

More than that mate £3000 for 215bhp / £4000 for 250bhp thats just for the BHP.

Then youve got the transmission, brakes, ARB, suspension etc...

To sum it all up your looking at a grand total of £9000 to make it a seriously fast car but its worth it in my opinion if you like being an underdog.

£9000, so thats where all my money went :eek:

I was flicking through some receipts in my fabia folder the other day..... wish i had the money now :o

lol i dont intend on spending anywhere near that

i've spent 000's and i've not not even touched the engine yet,well apart from the re map,i do have a nice handling vrs tho:D Oh and the small matter of 176bhp and 346ft lbs jabba are the daddies:thumbup:

Well its if you think its worth it !

well i dont like the handling to much atm so im just seein what people would recommend suspension wise

buy a faster car..

in hindsight i wish i kept mine stock and just did the coilies and wheels

Suspension is what I'd do if starting over along with 312mm. Coilovers seem to he popular or eibach/koni. Rarb is a must.

thanks just ordered a set front and rear anti roll bars for £200 delivered

next to order is brakes and springs then get it all fitted at once for £150 :)

What make have you gone for, Whiteline? You'll have to let us know how it feels with the front ARB. Most people tend to stick to standard (20mm) on the front as increasing the stiffness increases understeer.

9000 grand will get you a pretty quick car ,if you fancy modding the fabia i'd just uprate brakes and get a remap 170bhp is plenty and that lot shouldn't cost the earth

346ft lbs jabba are the daddies:thumbup:

Wow, thats some torque. Is that straight onto a standard PD130 engine? What clutch?

Spec 3+ clutch with billet single mass fly i think :confused:

You could run an oem one if you treated it right...

I roaded at 173.5hp and 347lb-ft torque with a Star Performance map im running a Helix and SMF :cool:
