Long Time Lurker

Featured Replies

Hi,

Its about time i made an introduction as I've lurked enough.

I'm Phil and I have a 56 plate Ibiza Fr TDi live in Northants but work in MK, owned it for nearly 4 years now and Ali at Unit 18 has looked after it pretty much exclusively in that time.

the car has a few choice mods:

Forge FMIC,

Piper Turbo Back with De Cat and 1 silencer

PD150 Turbo,

Lowered on Eibach Pro Springs

Custom Stage 1 map (interim)

MK5 Ibiza FR Interior

and a whole lot more,

I do have plans for it, namely a clutch, a hybrid, a diff, new shocks, Leon FR+ alloys, a full power map and a leather interior,

Anyways, Hi!

Now then just seen you skunking round chat bit,

Nice looking car, think the leon wheels really suit it

cheers mate, yep guilty, having a poke about the forum to see what it can do over the other places im a member of, seems alot of knowledge on here on the Pd130 lump

So many fabia vrs owners so the 130 is popular (common) on here haha

Looks more fr cupra to me! Love it!

Not sure if them door sills are standard?

Looks like a slightly larget spoiler as well?

Nice to see another ibiza fr owner on here anyway.

a full list of mods is:

Interior:

Golf Light with Map lights

LED Interior Lights

Central Visor

Armster Armrest

SEAT Sport Leon MK2 Gear Knob

Pioneer Double Dinn with SAT Nav and Bluetooth built in

Genuine MK5 Ibiza FR Interior

Red Trimmed Vent Surrounds

Red Vent Clips

Unit 18 retro fitted Cruise Control

Audi TT Pedals

Upgraded JBL Speakers (My Christmas prezzie so cant fit until tomorrow)

Exterior Cosmetic:

SEAT Sport Aero Sideskirts

Genuine Cupra Spoiler

LCR Front Splitter

Heko Wind Deflectors

Black Mouth Front Bumper

Genuine SEAT Leon FR+ 17" Alloys - These have a flatter face than the 17" Ibiza Cupra wheels which IMO stick out too much and dont look as smart

Pressed Plates

SEAT Sport Plate Holders

LED Number plate bulbs

Performance:

PD150 Turbo

Piper Turbo Back Decat with 1 silencer

Forge FMIC

Eibach Pro Springs

312mm brake Upgrade

PD160 intake

So there isnt much that I have changed lol

In March once the works bonus is paid I will be getting a CG Motorsport 8 Paddle Clutch and then a Stage 2 remap and possibly a leather retrim from SEAT Surgeons, or i could do something sensible and pay the car off, but thats no fun lol

also at some point I will get a LSD fitted and eventually take my primed mirror covers to the paint shop as I want something a little more custom ;)

I've got a set of them sills in my watching list on ebay, but the add says not suitable for fr/cupra models?? Any idea why?

Linky: http://item.mobilewe...nid=19900074799

Anyway, makes me want to change my to do list to...

Sport sills

Cupra spoiler

Front splitter

Wind deflectors

Keep up the good work, get plenty of pics :)

not sure to be honest as there have been a number of cupra come with the SEAT Sport aero kit from the factory and theres a fair few FR's and Cupras with the skirts so I'm not really sure, the one thing I can say, is that they definately fit

Nice car mate, I'll show the pics to the missus so she can compare the two and expalin why her altea is a tip- she's the one that drives it most so she can't blame anyone else!

Only mods it's had are to the rear 1/4 at the bottom where she reversed in to a post and the usual car park dinks & supermarket trolly scratches 'cause she doesn't give a t*ss

well if its any consolation, my last misses did a little mod for me, it was the famous pebble dash the door and drop a bag of fruit pastles down the seat and forget about them for a week until they are warm and suitably stuck mod. still dont know how she got home from Nottingham at 2am.......
