octavia 4x4 conversion from k03 to k03s
chris stop replied to chris stop's topic in Skoda Octavia Mk I (1996-2004)
I'll have a look at them thanks. Hoping I can just drop the back of it by an inch or so on a gearbox jack to give me the space I need. I have got a little clonk but put it down to dogbone mount but will inspect them bushes -

golf r32 suspension onto 4x4 turbo

Thanks for the input guys appreciate it. I tried searching but think was being too specific. Think I will go for clives offer then maybe get the r32 arbs with polybushes -

Need to do this to mine as really annoying about not clearing the top part of the screen -

Would high mileage put anybody off?

As said mileage doesnt put me off but I can do whatever is needed. History though is priceless regardless of mileage -

Glad its worked but not a fan of these coolant leak stops. I used one years ago on my old nova and when I finally took head off to do headgasket some of the waterways were blocked solid -
Has anyone done it? What did it drive like and how much would you say it lowered the car? Thanks

Its a downpipe and decat I got for mine. Its not for my car but looks like it should go on ok but will be tight between subframe, need tolower the rear of front subframe to fit also -

Thats good news. Just paid for a turborevs smic, already got decat to go on so just need exhaust before I am happy with engine for a proper remap Before remap though are bigger brakes and I think golf r32 suspension setup inc arbs that I am hunting down -

I didnt realise that must have read something wrong somewhere. Mine was registered 27/05/2001 so might have it? Whats the easiest way to tell. Mine is supposedly chipped but no info on it. Holds 13psi boost nicely and pulls strong -
Hi wondering whats needed in the conversion besides gaskets and bolts? Inlet pipe I read but not sure what else. Also is it a big benifit over the k03 Thanks guys

sounds bit like heater matrix to me. hot coolant smells a bit funky if not used to it. would be worth getting your cooling system pressure tested
