Hello!
Just wanted to introduce myself. I purchased my 2003 LCR about two months ago and have been slowly making it "mine", but I'm trying not to modify it too much haha. When I purchased the LCR, it had just under 115xxx, but just turned over 117xxx and hasn't missed a beat at all. The car is completely standard and I'm trying to keep it that way. I have been around and modifying cars for at least 10 years now but this is my first German as I'm used to tweaking Jap cars. Since purchase, the only things that have been fitted on are drop springs, poly top mounts, full cobra cat-back and a set of wheels and tires. That's it for now other than cosmetics. I'm thinking about doing the big mouth mod (already purchased the mesh lol), but not too sure as I'm trying to keep it standard. It seems untouched Rs are getting harder to come by.
Once I get her washed up I'll be posting some photos. I'm hoping to meet other Seat owners and see where things go! (meets, photoshoots etc.) I'm from Norfolk atm!
So as for power, it seems as if these little 20v motors don't take too much to make them fun to drive. Intake, downpipe, and intercooler seems to be the go to for 260+ bhp. That's not a whole lot but enough to have some fun for sure! What are other means people are doing to try to reach the 300 mark other than changing the turbo?
Lastly, is there a sticky that shows all the vendors that make parts for the MK1?
