[Berg]

Coming on well Berg!

Glad to see another happy Turbosmart DV owner

Mine been fully open for years with no issues, cant wait to see your car in the metal!

Roll on April 14th

Cheers mate

I had one fitted yonks ago back when i was stage 1, but i put the forge back on when i put the k03s on

2 and half weeks to go

 

[Berg]

Suspension overhaul time, preparing the car ready for some more track days

Went for AP coilovers

Powerflex bushes
Rear beam kit & Front & rear bushes to do the front wishbones

Also had this sat around a while, gives a clue to the new wheel colour

Just waiting for Bill to get the H&R front and rear anti roll bar kits then everything will be fitted together

Then its diff time

 

[Ibiza125]

Where are you going to fit your toe strap too? I have one as well but don't know where to put it without looking daft...

 

[Berg]

Not sure yet tbh havent even looked into it

Not a fan of them sticking right out dragging on the floor so got to look into it lol

 

[CupraSean]

got the exact same strap in blue, been holding off though till i lower mine as i think it will look naff with my car so high !! oh man i wish i had some spring or some coilies !!! transforms the look of these cars being lowered.

The wheels will look sick in that colour berg !!

cant wait to see your car on the 14th

 

[Berg]

The coilovers off my car will be availible when i fit these

Wheels are being done in the next couple of weeks

Hopefully the meet will be good weather, or my car will probably be filthy lol

 

[CupraSean]

same, so hard to keep it clean, going to give it a mop over the next week, got the week off work, going to cornwall with the mrs, so will take the mop.

you getting ur current wheels powder coated ? or ur pro races ?

PM'd about coilies.

 

[Berg]

Dont have the pro race anymore, rotas will be done, its only costing me the price of paint which will be around £50

 

[CupraSean]

that will be sweet !! and at a bargain to !!! cant complain at that can you !

i look forward to seeing pics when there done

 

[dan1990]

This is probs one of if not my favorite mk3 cupra on here good work keep it up

 

[butch20vt]

top work berg good choice on the coils mate

 

[Berg]

Cheers guys

 

[Berg]

Just picked up all my paint to do the rocker inlet and strut brace tomorrow

Not looking forward to doing the inlet as ive never had it off before, looks easy enough though

 

[Berg]

Rocker inlet and strut brace all painted today, got all the red bolts and nuts on too

Paint job isnt great on the rocker and brace as the old paint just wouldnt flatten so tbh they could do with shot blasting and redoing at a later date

For now though they look alot better than before

Heres before
old peeled rocker and multicoloured brace lol

 

[yellonvi-R]

I used my electric drill with wire brush bit init to get all the paint off, then a sander drill bit to get it smooth.

 

[Chambers_CUPRA]

Berg did ya take the inlet off? If so how was it? Did ya need new seals for the injectors?

Looking nice and clean now!

Red nuts look pucka and finish it off nicely

 

[Murdered LCR]

Looks awesome mate

If i had more time i probably could have done it tbh, looks respectable though

Yer took the inlet off, really easy, injector seals were fine and still are so didnt need to replace anything, all came off easy enough

Do like the red bits myself one of the coilpack bolts snapped though and it wasnt even bolted all the way down! must have been a duff bolt that one lol

Looks awesome mate

Cheers mate

 

[yellonvi-R]

Did you have to vag.com it after taking off and refitting the inlet?? Someone said something before about needing to use vagcom to reset something or another after putting the inlet back on!?

 

[Berg]

If you remove the throttle body from the inlet then it needs to be realigned with vagcom

I left it on though as theres no reason to remove unless your sending it away for powder coating or something
