it did feel a little flat sometimes, could be that I've got used to it though now?
Of course it would! You came out with me! Mind you I was PROPERLY pansy driving in the first session, was a little cautious of things going wrong as it was pretty much all my own work that went into the car... do I trust myself? Hell no!

I dunno dave. The vw and Audi logos on every component may have something to day about it
lol.
I should be hearing today about polybushes, engine mounts, strut braces and a few other bits
#162: Re: Ape's SEAT Leon Cupra R 225 *New Tarty bits and Weight loss* Author: Lodey, Location: Penzance & Falmouth CornwallPosted: Thu Jun 24, 2010 12:40 pm ---- Ape have you got any thing in the way of a strut brace for the rear. I just upgraded shocks and springs but, still feeling the handling can be made better, may upgrade eventually to the the Cupra R front set up for suspension. As my cupra is different. Still need to fit my Brembos too
#163: Re: Ape's SEAT Leon Cupra R 225 *New Tarty bits and Weight loss* Author: Ape, Location: Clipping the Apex!Posted: Thu Jun 24, 2010 1:12 pm ---- I'm getting front and rear braces sorted in the next week along with the rear 28mm arb, polybuhes, vibratechnics mounts, polybushes all round and that'll do for now lol. Soon after comes the power upgrade

A few pics of the topmount being changed on the rear (was rattling), along with some more weightloss!!
Gotta love iPhone Quality photo's... kinda.
Topmount change, we did it so quickly I didn't have chance to take the pics
This bugger keeps rattling like crazy, so it'll be replaced soon.
