Well this is it guys and girls...... In case you didn't know already by my for sale thread lol my much loved fabia has finally gone and been replaced :( was sad to see it go but was time to move on to better things. It's been a fun filled nearly 6 years of owning this car. Its had its ups and downs some of them rather massive downs and wallet emptying lol but none the less it came with alot of good times aswell! I've had a great time owning this car and done various track days inc the ring, silverstone, castle coombe and snetterton. always surprised alot of cars out there too I would like to say a massive massive thank you from Ali @ Unit18 who has looked after my car from day 1! Nothing has been impossible for him and has always helped my out massively. Him and his teams work is impeccable couldn't fault it one bit so fully recommend them to anyone and will also continue to use them of the new car fact! For those who didn't know my car here's a few pics of it while Ive had it. And now what your all dying to know...... what did i buy??? Well here it is 1st impressions is i love it so much different. I'll still be about or a while while i sell the stuff from the fabia wink wink It was nice to meet all those i have met through this forum so keep in touch! Its a great forum and has some great members too, keep it up guys. Thanks Chris

What's the best mod you've done to your fabia?
chrisw_vrs replied to tommccabevRS's topic in Skoda Fabia Mk I (1999-2007)
For me its a tough one... but think im gona say apart from the usual coilys, brakes , turbo etc i'll say the quaife LSD not many people have these but its fully awesome -
I've been using them for a few years as has a mate on his fabia. Best thing since slice bread for the money imo, ok in the dry, great in the wet (which is 90% of the year here), I love them!

So the time has come for me to move on to a newer car. Over the past few years of ownership I have made a huge amount of changes and modifications to the Fabia so I now have the task of removing them all as it is being traded in (as a standard car) and hopefully starting the new cars mod fund. So, onwards with the parts . . . Turbo Technics PD150 Stage 2 Turbo (This is a new one with a bigger compressor wheel then the normal PD150 hybrid they sell). Nice smooth map, less than 2000 miles old £400 + a stock turbo (good condition) - Gone with the car :( Quaife LSD, not 100% sure I’ll be selling this, but possibly be for sale so if anyone is interested let me know. I need to check if it's possible to refit the stock diff, if not then it might mean swapping boxes. - Keeping this now as it fits the new car Right hand side vibratechnics engine mount, less a year old & left hand side (gearbox) engine mount, less than 6 months old £80 each or £150 for the pair. - SOLD Forge FMIC & pipework. Good condition, used for 3-4 years but never had any issues with it, never any heat soak, top quality kit. Fits without any need to chop the crash bar or bumper, will also include a EGR delete. £400 - SOLD Mocal 19 row oil cooler, full kit with braided lines and sandwich plate & thermostats, less than 6 months old £230 PD160 intake, both bits £60 - SOLD Jabba sport rear anti roll bar, black, might need new clamps for fitting (couple of quid) £140 LCR Brembos, braided hoses, new bleed nipples, near brand new discs & DS2500 pads, in red, could do with a paint £550 256 mm rear brakes, again near new discs & pads, in red £90 - SOLD Factory Xenons, one clip has been repaired but they bolt in and sit perfect, less than a year old, complete with ballets and bulbs £300 - SOLD Milltek exhaust, full turbo system with decat, 3 years old £300 - SOLD KW V2 Coilovers, good condition, no leaks but they are a few years old, might need freeing before fitting £300 - SOLD A pair of K-sport bucket seats, complete with recaro subframes and side mounts to go straight in a Fabia using the stock runners to retain the adjustment forwards and backwards. I’ll include the 6 point 3” strap K-sport harnesses too. All in pretty much brand new condition, mega light. Not 100% sure if I want to sell these (the frames will go either way but not sure on the seats) but will offer them and see if there is any interest looking at around £900 Polo/Passat flat rear wiper blade £10 Grill surround in yellow, stone chipped but complete £20 Grill surround in white, the rear is cracked, doesn't notice when on the car £10 Outer grill in race blue £45 Jabbsport single mass flywheel and sachs stage 2 clutch kit, covered approx 50-60k miles. This clutch kit has Never slipped. flywheel is in a good condition but may require a new friction plate. all bolts included for the flywheel and pressure plate. - £250 Towing eye adapter for a strap with a yellow strap (longer one so it stick out far enough to use) £20 - SOLD Photos will be added as stuff is removed, if you want pictures of something before then just shout and I'll get some put up. All prices are collected, most items could be posted for additional cost. First come first served, happy to hold items for a short time with a small deposit to deter time wasters. Any questions just ask, me or Matt will get back to you asap.
