  1. ...a year later I have the exact same thing. Was it your window regulator at the end?
  2. did not see this earlier, not sure who you are aiming your question to but this is for mkI Octavia. We usually change our exhaust manidfolds either because the stock ones have small runners or because the after market ones with the long runners crack. Mine was cracked open like a rose. Hope it helps
  3. Thanks mate, I should have taken a before pic to see how bad it was (from body shop), I never thought I would manage something like that. The entire fleet?!?! I still havent finish mine, driver's door and fender still to be done
  4. After wetsanding with 1500 and 2500 grit, then meguiars 105 and 205 with DA machine. And M21(sealant) for the end by hand. This is the boot right next to the license plate. Have a look at the bottom right hand corner, you ll see part of the stop light.
  5. Funny thing... I have bought them twice from different places but they dont fit, apparently they are too big, also apparently the original product code no longer exists anywhere. Hence the question if you have them
  6. do you have the clips that hold the centre plastic trim at the very end of the headliner, right above the rear passengers heads in the middle? Have a look at the picture attached. They should look something like that: http://www.vehicleclips.co.uk/skoda-plastic-trim-clips-for-headlining-roof-lining-pillars-interior-trim.html
  7. despite having found the correct picture of the clip on an online etka, when I search for the code it shows me the wrong thing. https://skoda.7zap.com/en/cz/octavia/oct/2002-252/8/867-867055/#34 I am looking for number 34 in the picture, which is the clip. However when I use the code provided it just shows the blue circle clip which I do not need. Can someone help? The code I get out of ETKA is 1U0867280 , but like I said, it is not the clip I am after,
  8. No worries, 3B0 951 223 thats the high one. There are more clips in the front pillars for sure. Thanks and let me know when you can
  9. any luck with the clips? also, do you have the the high horn? ( I have the low one)
  10. Hi, I am after the clips that hold the centre plastic piece that holds the headliner at the very back in the middle, above the rear headrests. Are they available?
  11. I used this one and it worked fine for me: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Brake-Break-Caliper-Piston-Rewind-Hand-Tool-For-VW-AUDI-GOLF-SEAT-FORD-UK/142383406747?epid=1440739718&hash=item2126b65e9b:g:6KcAAOSwpbRZ4L1i just make sure it complies with your car. The one I posted above, is just for reference. It is cheap and it gets the job done. Once you have it in your hands, you will work it out, no big deal
  12. so far I did some reading but did not find out costs, people are talking with ball park figures. On the other hand the drive-ability is a n issue that need to look into... but again, not great details on setup, tires, etc. Someone hit a nail in the head when they talked about reducing the weight, that I totaly agree. But the rest was a bit like "even with LSD it is still not driveable" which doesnt really mean a lot. I ll carry on the reading though buddy, thanks for your reply
  13. hi guys, I have read other forums about what needs to be done to get a car to 400-500bhp, the immediate answer yes I know is rods, pistons, fuel pump etc. I read many posts but not one of them that gives a full list of parts needed. So I want to attempt writing a list of parts/mods needed. I will be updating the list along with prices and links if that post remains alive and busy. So I am looking for any guys in here than actually have gone past the 400bhp mark, just want to hear their setup, what they should have done and what they should not have done. And in general how bad or good the car is. For example I read that you can go to 500bhp with stock valves as long as you dont rev over 7200, that means a turbo with a/r 62. I made a list of things needed for the 400-500bhp setup, this one is slightly on a budget so I will have to buy as less parts as possible - not as cheap as possible. E.g. internal w/g turbo, no need for an external. Feel free to comment if you think I need (or dont need) something else. Turbo - 3076/3071 internal w/g (so no need for an external) Pistons - 81mm drop in Piston rings bearings conrods - 19mm drop in (rifled or not?) BOV 007 - can this be used on a Big turbo setup with a red spring maybe? large Intercooler intercooler piping spark plugs custom intake without MAF ECU programming (Rtech or badger 5 or anyone else?) 76mm full exhaust CAT 100 CPSI Sytec fuel pump (will it fit the stock pump housing?) Injectors (880cc?) Exhaust Manifold (SPA) 20V non-turbo cams (or can I use stock?) ARP bolts 10W60 oil Transmission Quaife differential DMF or SMF? Will the G60 that I have be any good? stock & current parts to remain on car stock inlet manifold AUM/AUQ stock valves and valve trains etc stock crankshaft stock fuel rail R8 coils metal impeller water pump changed nearly 60.000 miles ago 996 Turbo calipers + R32 334x32 discs Rear VRS break set up KW Var II suspension stock compression ratio 9.5:1
  14. ...right when I thought I got this! I ll do some research and maybe I will ask again, thanks again though
