Team Dynamics for that touring car look, JR7s if you want to be a bit different (y)
Originally thought dynamics but the sparco really growing on me not many cupras with them most golfs & cupras go dynamics
Personally i dont like any of them :worried: sorry haha think they cheapen the look of the car :worried:
The oem is OK but what to do something different etc lol

19s are grand on the Mk5 platform. Those Cupra R Potenzas are the best wheel for them.

You should also do a balance shaft delete with the VIS Freewheel while the sumps off ?
Was going to mate but there is mixed reports on tfsi tuning with the bearing in them, also more vibration in the cab etc it doesn't get its head beat in etc so should be all gravey lol

Car dropped back to me today, running 100% so far will put couple 100 mile on her, much quieter than be4 on idle, mechanic from what he could see was the tensioner not playing ball. Sump off and was all 100% no broken or unwanted parts lying in it 🤣 pick up pipe was clean but changed anyways. Oil pump chain and balance shafts sprockets all good, so was nice to find out its in very good condition etc

Havnt been on here for a while, still doing bits and bobs to the car, rear caliper seized bought 2nd hand 1 which was basically new trw one of a cupra breaker result.
Notice the short shifter was sloppy and gears where not nice after a while, the thread on the shift selector ***** the bed, have to replace the hole unit which is cheap of a breaker got 2 delivered as couldn't get the right 1 as mine is facelift and only comes on mine mk6 golf r rococo r etc. So had the original drilled out and manifold stud was used great job! All fixed
