Afternoon all,

I was just wondering if such a thing was available for the fabia vRS? I know its probably overkill especially with an upper strut (and rear!) as well but I know you can get one for the Octy vRS (mk1) and it got me thinking.

Cheers.

Ben.

yes, done a little dig on this once upon a time.. iirc.. 23mm - expensive, stupidly hard to get out.. not a huge amount of benefits compared other struts (e.g. rarb).

Follow on question, has anyone seen any upper rear struts? :p

Yes I have the Forge one (as in my sig). Tightens it all up nicely turn in is defiantly improved.

Would that be the Ibiza 3 or 4? 3 right?

After having a little search around it looks like the an S3 lower strut brace would fit (also standard on the Cupra R)

Although the OMP one looks cool I'm not sure if I like the ground clearance with it fitted : http://i720.photobucket.com/albums/ww210/crzygav/DSC00296.jpg It also costs around £60 off ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/OMP-Front-Lower-Strut-Brace-SEAT-IBIZA-1-9TDi-CUPRA-/390149205788?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item5ad6b46f1c and the S3/Cupra r one costs... £14 http://www.seatcupra.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=509&Itemid=6

Deffo my next mod

S3 lower shouldn't fit - S3 and LCR are wider track on the front?

Ibiza MK4 is identical as its same platform.

Aww shame :( so its OMP or nothing? Or does the MK4 Cupra R have one that would fit?

I had a OMP one. it should fit but it doesnt lol.. it could be made to fit, but would probably knock the suspension geo in the process.

I had a weichers one but smashed it promptly back off again.
