High Spec eBay vRS Fabia.

In the description he mentions the customary bushes, but also cupra uprated arms??

Never heard of these being used, are they stiffer or something?

Wishbones are the same as far as I know, the consoles physically the same but maybe they bought them with the Cupra bushes in thus fitting Cupra components.

2nd time it's been on Ebay!

Wishbones are the same as far as I know, the consoles physically the same but maybe they bought them with the Cupra bushes in thus fitting Cupra components.

I was told that the cupra wishbones were slightly shorter to correct the camber on the lowered suspension.

never managed to measure a cupra wishbone vs a standard one to prove it though.

Could be then, cant say ive measured one either or looked on ETKA to se if they have a different part number.

<snip> BEEN ON DYNO TUNE 28/08/2010 WHICH MADE 186.1 BHP AND 285.5 lbf.ft OF TORQUE AND 2.5 BAR OF TURBO PRESSURE, EVERYTHING RUNNING PERFECTLY WELL

FULL GRAPH AND PRINTOUT AVAILABLE

OVER 6K SPENT SOME OF WHICH INCLUDE:

HYBRID TURBO-MD37, RATED 260/280 BHP WITH BLUE PRINT

FULL JETEX STAINLESS STEEL EXHAUST WITH DE CAT

POLISHED FORGED FRONT MOUNT INTERCOOLER WITH CUSTOM PIPEWORK

EGR DELETE PIPE

PIPER X AIR FILTER AND CUSTOM AIR FLOW PIPE

LARGER 160 INTAKE FOR BETTER AIRFLOW

UPRATED KEVLAR CLUTCH AND FLY WHEEL <snip>

With those mods should this car not be pushing 200 BHP / 300+ Lb.Ft easy! i would be pretty ****ed to spend £6K on the car and only get a 1/3rd gain

just needs remapped properly

Out of interest, I checked on my copy of ETOS and standard Ibiza "complete" TCA is 6Q0 407 151 E and CUPRA "complete" TCA is 6LL 407 151 - so they are differant, but why they are listed as "complete" when that does not seem to include the lower swivel, which in any case is 6Q0 407 365 A for both variants, beats me! These numbers might now have been superceded, but I'd still reckon that they will not be identical to each other - but don't know the full facts for that!

Can anyone see the front crash bar?
