  1. https://kitspares.co.uk/products/reconditioned-front-calipers-standard-sierra Pair of fully reconditioned Front Callipers Ford Sierra (Standard). To suit vented brake discs. (2400mm Discs) But here says 240, so Czechino which brake caliper installed? The list is long ! https://www.onlinecarparts.co.uk/spare-parts/ford/brake-calipers/sierra.html 😲
  2. Škoda Felicia VanPlus 1.3MPi Nürburgring Front brake Ford Sierra caliper and Clio williams 260mm disc, stock pads.
  3. I wouldn't say ''No'' to 256mm vented discs + 14" wheels + EBC yellow stuff pads. The problem (at least here in GR) is that you can not go to a brake shop and say to mechanic: "the brake calipers from the X brand model fit in Felicia, here are them plus the discs+pads, go install them". There is not a ''guide'' as ''how to" in the internet or a well-known patent which many drivers have done so almost everybody technician knows that works for sure.
  4. I don't have an amplifier in purpose, i don't like loud music while driving. I use radio or USB stick for songs only and in low volume. In Mountain Roads is Off because i want to hear the engine, the tyres, the brakes etc creating a more ''Sporty'' sense. The small tweeters are from NZ, something like these: The electrician said that there is enough space in that triangle so he cut it and install them. The help a lot in high notes (υψηλες νοτες) of the song.
  5. I don't know if anyone here takes the responsibility to do it but even the cost would be enormous. You can cover it with adhesive film or paint it. I let it as is not because it's a ton of work but i think matches with the same colour handle lever (although i paint the outside part of the handle).
  6. I bought my Trusty with electric windows (front) and later i paid for rear windows too, the round cap was to cover the mechanism plastic gears, together was a T shape handle to roll the window down or up in case that the power fails. The tweeters installed together with the speakers (fron and rear) by an I.C.E electrician, i am not a sound expert but they help a lot for quality sound. I don't remember the cost but i will try to find them if they exist now in the market. The rear astrays are ''glued'' and they don't open in purpose and the front is modified for switches (my patent with lof of work).
  7. You have to make a wiring test via multimeter.
  8. You mean is out a bit from it's position and there is no good contact in the pins? Few drops of glue for plastics can do the job.
  9. Is these? https://www.burtonpower.com/caliper-m16-ford-escort-capri-cortina-rh-xc80285.html and take those brake discs? 260x24mm (vented) https://www.burtonpower.com/brake-discs-front-pair-ford-mondeo-1-6-1-8-2-0-93-00-di955255.html
  10. I never liked the texture of the factory material in my Felicia and always envy the leather door panels that other luxury cars of that era had. I decide to give my panels to apply leather although: 1) I had no experience on this matter. 2) I had no other example ie another Felicia owner here of photos from a UK tuning magazine that i was reading those years. I start visiting Upholstery stores in the area and i heard many opinions: ''it can not be done, i want 750 euros for this, there is no gain to do it, i can put Leatherette but i can not guarantee that will last long, yes you can put Leatherette but only an experienced technician can do it, leave it as is, those panels don't stand leather" etc. Since i was not yet member in any forum (GR or foreigner) and there was any Felicia owner in the area to ask i took the risk, removed the 4 panels and went to an Upholstery store which asked me reasonable amount of money and took the responsibility to install real leather. Here are 3 examples as they look now after about 22 years of use. Keep in mind that things now in the market are different, more help (informations) from internet, different prices due to competition, different materials, some cars have them as Standard from the factory etc. This was a ''risky'' project back then but i never regretted for my decision. I know that the photos are not good and there is missing one but i will take care of it in a future post plus a small analysis for the Pros and Cons.
  11. When you turn the key at 1scale the red light does not come on? How is the situation of your battery?
  12. The Americans are the founders of the logic ''improve your stock car'' https://www.appalachianhistory.net/2007/03/moonshine-and-nascar.html https://whistlingandy.com/blogs/the-blog/transportation-of-moonshine-and-the-start-of-nascar that you blaim. Yes was for an illegal purpose but without them things would be much different and since we copy them in EU there wouldn't be guys like Gemballa or companies like AMG.
  13. So if he had made the tuning in his car by your way then it would last 50 years?
  14. Bought in 2000, heavy modified in 2010 and worked till 2021. The guy is a rally man and has other cars to work with. So where is the problem?
  15. 2010, here a Felicia 1.600c.c 16v by Nizamis, one of the most respectful racing driver (and mechanic) here in Greece, he has tested on track every Skoda model. 1. 1.600cc 16v engine from Leon 2. 248 degree camshafts and bench flow progression 3. Fabia BBZ 101 intake with Φ60 intake throttle from Ibiza Gti ΄96 (diesel) and Bmc Carbon filter 4. 4-1 free-flowing headers with Φ60 diameter pipes and Remus exhaust 5. 20vt petrol pump with 4 bar F.Petrol 6. Engine mounts from Octavia Tdi 7. Ceramic custom disc 200 diameter 8. Ecu Ibiza Gti΄96 9. Body kit Felicia Kit Car 10. Felicia Kit Car front ends 11. Adjustable suspension HP sporting from Felicia cup 12. 4-piston MTX calipers from Skoda Motorsport with split ventilated discs 280 diameter 13. 15-inch KRS Racing rims with Michelin 195/50/15 Result: 133 Hp with 176N/m at 4,700rpm
  16. Yes, that was the first thing that i noticed in this Felicia plus the 5 holes in front (probably to brink fresh air inside) but has no cabin filter below so maybe has that scoop as ram-air to bring air inside the engine bay. He didn't go crazy in weight reduction in the interior, the wheel are 15" am i wrong? Take a look the indication, 316455 Km and still is running and adding more Km every month ! Imagine in the past how many times heard the ''why don't you sell it and buy a new car?'' from some idiots ''i know everything for every sector''. Hear wrapping on the headers
  17. And you didn't push the Unlike button or made comments below that you disagree etc?
  18. Brake calipers from Ford Mondeo, yes but which model?
  19. UP ON THEM ! The @Thefeliciahacker will get a heart attack if he sees this.
  20. Fuel pressure measured via FP gauge ? Maybe the regulator does not work properly.
  21. The socket had not enough cable to come out to work properly, i was afraid that if i was pulling it could made a danage.
  22. As for the plastic cap of course it's removable. I didn't wanted to buy only this (even as a Used part) because the switch was a bit damaged. ________________________ This is the switch from Alhambra Ibiza Inca Cordoba , similar and you can see the 3 pins and the < > clips better, totally 4 parts.
