Latest Maxton design rear diffuser revision 2
Red Fox replied to Danielwhitt's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Hi all, im currently looking at one of these and have been advised by Maxton that the heat deforming issue is being looked into, but i can buy one if i want but without any option to return if it does deform. Has anyone that has this fitted got any more feedback or theorys about the cause of the deformation. Thanks -
Hi my vRS didn't come with a vRS badge on the front grille I ordered one off Super Skoda but it is the prefacelift version (longer RS section and doesn't line up with the grille slats) . Does anyone have the part code for the FL version?

Will 312mm vRS brakes fit on a SE L TDI?
Red Fox replied to Red Fox's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk III (2013 - 2020)
Thanks for the reply peeps. After toting up the price for the mods I wanted to do to my SE L I decided that the difference in price wasnt too far off geting a 2nd hand vRS. So I have traded my SE L in and got myself a 2018 Octy vRS Diesel with DSG and 4 wheel drive. Should be picking it up in a couple of weeks. -
Shark are realy good I thought the car would strugle to put the power down but no issues, their map is so smooth smoke wise there is no difference. Its scary how quickly the car picks up now. The STS system is worth having as well as it gives you options. Clutch wise im runniing the CG Motorsport dual friction clutch with a SMF its an excelent choice of clutch. It should give 40% increase on torque load compared to OEM clutch so thats about 430lb of torque. Feel wise its slightly heavier and there is some slight judder when setting off slowly but on fast get aways it launches like a missile!

Hi All, Sorry for the late post but things have been mad busy and the cars clutch has gone so I have been running around like a headless chicken getting money together to fix the motor (may as well do the planed uprated clutch at the same time). Coupled with finishing college, decorating the house and promotions at work has ment that the meet ended up on the back burner. so i will be pushing it back a week, ill post up later tonight with the details. see you all next week. See below link for the revised meet http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/362441-july-meet-the-harvester-ol7-0pg-12th-july/

Group visit to the Vulcan Bomber at Wellesbourne - 26th July 2014
Red Fox replied to Dr Zoidberg's topic in West Midlands
i would be up for this as long as I can get my car back on the road after a clutch failure hopefully I'll be running in the next three weeks. I would love to go and see XH558 as we need to keep this iconic piece of British engineering flying just so we can hear the famous Vulcan howl. I actualy saw her first flight after her restoration (pictures and video on my flickr page - https://www.flickr.com/photos/a_huge_amoeba/sets/72157651360706679) towards the bottom.
