  1. Is this the pipes that connect the intercooler to the Turbo?
  2. I cant see a price:/ sorry if its pbvious and I've not seen it!
  3. Previously my car and the guy I bought it off was a briskoda/mazda member who bought it brand new. All the tyres are Falkens. Front pads where done recently too! The AEM intake was about £200 as well when I bought, great subtle dump of air when you let off the accelerator. Wolf in sheeps clothing,loved every minute of this car!
  4. I think hes trying to talk is Mrs round lol. I have mate but just haven't had the time to get round to joining freedom yet, not on the forum anywahere near as much as I was when I had my Fabia Thanks Allan
  5. Hi, this is my Octavia. And no its not been in an accident, to be honest I never even noticed the side reapeters hae been changed. And no I haven't had it long, not as long as my Fabia vrs anyway. I bought the Octavia on an impulse buy after I got back my holiday so I had a car when I got back to work, now I've just decided I want to down grade in size as its just too big for what I need a car for. I have made your brother an offer, just waiting to hear from him Thanks Allan
  6. replied via your pistonheads advert
  7. Aye the brake pedal does go hard.of its missing on most cyclinders which a think it is, then a think its the throttle body. Also i have just recebnly repcaed a coil pack and before i did it it was running a differentkind of lumpy?
  8. Does the coil pack not throw up the engine management light tho? And it wouldn't effect the brakes would it? Interphase how did u fix yours? Turning the key before I turned it on for 30seconds as temporarily fixed it
  9. Hope some1 on here can help me. I have a 52 plate octavia vrs and its constantly playing up. Its only running on 3cylinders and the brakes are barely working! And when this is happening the EPC light and Traction control light are on. I've read on here that it could be the brake pedal switch. But does anyone if thats defo it?
  10. I have a couple of pictures of my diy cooler and maf sensor brackets if you need them. pm me if u want and I'll send them over
  11. well my road tax is £435 for the year so spare a thot lol
  12. Map sensor then! a knew what a meant lol
  13. A done it on my Fabia when a had it, posted a thread up on here for it. Think a had the earlier model ST cooler You need silicone hoses, reducers. and bracket welded onto a section of pipe so that the Maf sensor can plug into.
  14. dam a miss my Fabia for the mpg lol this thread has depressed me, a struggle to get 26-29 mpg in my Mazda3 Mps @ £1.25 for tesco 99!! £20 gets me about 100miles
  15. ^^^^^ aye its pretty quick! "Spoon N1 Exhaust, AEM induction kit, Eibach springs. Apart from that standard as it came out of factory :-)" a fail to see how your dc2 would be able to keep up, espcally with alot less torque. but I'll take your word for it mate. Allan
  16. So far I've had about 6 people say it looks like a new impreza from the side. I think it does too! Is your dc2 tuned mate?
  17. its a 2.3 trubo. orginally a 2.0 litre bored I think
  18. It is mate, although he uses a different name on the Mazda forum
  19. Not done a proper full tank as of yet, but I'm looking at between 250-300miles. It's pretty dam quick and quite torque at the right revs, I do miss the fuel consumption of the Fabia lol but a knew it was time for a change! I will no doubt sometime in the near future have another skoda though as there great cars!
  20. Well after 2 great years of owning my Fabia Vrs I thought it was time for a change. And I thought I would share with you lot would I've upgraded to. This is my old Fabia Vrs which I spent a fair bit of money on and loved to bits! Couple of folk on here might recognise it, previously bought from a member on here. And here's my replacement, bought off forum member who also previously owned a Fabia Vrs. Majorly happy with it, this car ticked all the boxes for me. Loving the colour and the full Bose sound system, just having to get used to going to the petrol station more often lol. Cheers Allan
  21. Aye thats the one mate. Knew it was somewhere, just couldn't be bothered searching it lol.
  22. Just noticed this thread. The first picture is my car, I put up a small thread when I fitted an ST cooler to my Vrs. Its a bigger job than it looks, took me 2days. The pipework was all customly done and made up a MAF sensor bracket myself to attach to the pipework. There's another guy on here who stays local to me who has also done it. The bumper does need modifying. I have also removed the drivers side foglight to fit the pipework behind it.
  23. won't be a patch on your vrs eh jamie?
