  1. Hi guys, have searched but kept coming back 0 items found and a google search hasn't helped. looking to upgrade to vrs front calipers etc and I know I need the full setup from a vrs or Ibiza cupra, have found a full lot for sale but I need to know if the driveshafts will fit into the splines in the hub or if I'm going to need driveshafts? Cant seem to find anything on the 86 spec for a swap. Thanks
  2. Much better, there's other makes out there like jbl by Harmon that are good, these however fit right in and if you need space run a compact sub I use the kenwood underseat one and it's perfect for what I wanted the speakers and sub are still under £200
  3. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/262351114155 hope this link works but they are focals designed to plug and play. If it doesn't search focal Vw on eBay and the first one should come up from car audio security
  4. Pressure switch is a likely source but I would have it confirmed before buying any more parts
  5. About a year now, not had any issues with it. It was S.O.S Motorsport that done it was £300 at the time as they had an offer on or £250 for a generic and printout... no brained to get custom. and if I can find the print out I'll post a picture. And it's barely noisy with no silencers. It would appear that jbs auto design have 150 plus with a decat and they have hybrid turbos In development and they make up to 200.
  6. My remap made 136.9 Bhp and I had the 86 best thing I've done along with the rear anti roll bar.. it's smoother and it pulls past to 6k now as above I don't have esp or traction either. I can get 50mpg on my way to work and 40 just on the way home mine was done on rolling road. Also have a cat back with no silencers
  7. Posting for a friend who has had 3 bikes stolen, please share the pic over Facebook or twitter or anything you can.
  8. Monte wheels refurbed gloss black just refitted and the other pic was the gunmetal they wer if that helps?
  9. I might be wrong but I don't think the vrs diffuser will fit as it won't match up to the arch extensions? However the recess is there behind the monte diffuser so it can be removed and with a very steady hand could be cut out to give the same look. I had my exhaust down turned as I wanted to keep the clean lines. Mapping has made a huge difference though!
  10. Do you know of anywer nearby that has a mot ramp with the single man ramp? It has a plate that lets them shake the car with the full weight on it, they may be able to help you.
  11. Well if it's that it doesn't fix the rattle, it fixed an issue with the light coming on and limp mode, the rattle I have is the same as the 2.0tsi and wer the rod is attaches to the wastegate rod the linkage rattles, the slightest amount of pressure on it stops it, the clip sits around the c clip and applies pressure without restricting movement. As I say I've been around the block with friends who work at skoda and with Vw within the group. Ive had my chain replaced even though they said it was a late engine and would be something else rattling.
  12. So where is this tpi? U think I haven't checked what you have just bumped? Is this the shim?
  13. nope Nissan. I would be intrested to see this as I went full circle with skoda customer care and they told me it didn't cover my car, the guys at Vw told me the same and pretty much every polo 1.2tsi in the compound/sales pitch does it. Also is the Shim not something to do with limp mode and goes between the wastegate and wer it mounts along with a reprogram of the ecu.
  14. They defo make a difference and they won't split/pop out if you have the later style arms... mine is a 2013 monte
  15. Hi guys, anyone with a 1.2tsi may well know what I'm on about.... anyway after much to and fro from skoda when the car was in warranty to getting the Vw garage that's part of the group I work for to check it to be told it's normal they pretty much all do it... i decided to try fix it myself! Being a tech I'm not afraid to experiment and I'm not sure if it's been done before but the fix for the 2.0tsi wastegate rattle (the spring clip) seems to have sorted it! The clip pushes over and sits fine but I found that the clip had to be turned to the actuator rod to avoid it sticking. I may grind a touch off the clip to sit it further away but so far it seems fine. if anyone's interested I can post pics and part no.
  16. Let me know what they say, it's the only one I had found that was listed for fabia 2 not fabia 2 estate.
  17. Try this https://www.rw-online.co.uk/skoda-fabia-2-custom-fit-mdf-8-subwoofer-enclosure.html
  18. Tweeters are round, I have the focal access in the front too, no problems fitting them onto mdf rings, my tweeters are going on the dash not in the pillar though. Dynamat between the mdf and metal will help but also put a ring of foam around the speaker were the screws go to give it separation from the plastic door card.. not sure on the output of skoda original head units but I bought the song with the 4x100w class d amps built in and they are sweet. As for the sub there is stealth boxes for the hatch on the same side as that estate pictured. But you could also go for an under seat sub. You can add foam or dynamat to loose items that may vibrate too (cable attachment to door handle etc) also a sound absorbing foam directly behind the speaker on the door skin helps to deaden sound from the back
  19. 2013 Monte Carlo 86 tsi all black. Was standard when I bought it from my work. Had it remapped to 136.9bhp with before and after runs. Full cat back stainless system with tip still hidden. Sounds awesome without a back box so I'm hoping to get a valve put in for no silencer pops and bangs and silencer for longer journeys. Hids and led side and drl Focal speakers in the front with a Sony mex-xb100bt hard wired to battery. Wind deflectors Whiteline rear anti roll bar. Custom mirror covers Custom but legal number plates
  20. Any movement on the price? A brand new one is £170
  21. I have a set of 16inch genuine BMW steel wheels, (may fit the 1-2-3 and 4 series)steel wheels for sale with 4 genuine BMW caps, all in great condition and I think only one cap has kerb damage, wheels retail @57 plus vat and the caps are about £17 plus vat Looking for £100 all in plus postage. Please ask and I will quote you. Tyres fitted are 205/55/16 as a guide TYRES NOT INCLUDED IN SALE...
  22. They didn't loose it the company he used did. They just give you prices for all the company's. Never had a problem with the ups service.
