Hi all thought id do this as id like to keep a log of whats going on with with this car.

Here is my octavia vrs

As it stands just now its in relatively good order. Starts and runs well with full service history 109k on the clock and an honest car.

This week coming i will be replacing the rear crank seal to stop its horrible oil leak and giving the car a general tidy up. :-)

It has a full milltek turbo back exhaust with decat and a k+n group A cosworth filter, it had brand new disks and red stuff pads fitted short ago and thats it so far. Although ive got a fmic and a 4bar fpr to go on as ill be going for stage 2 in the near future.

So this week is crank seal and tidy to start with. Cant wait to get stuck in. :-)

Looks like a good base to start with.

Interested to see the group A filter. Post up some pics.

The front grille looks abit odd or is it something near the car?

Yeah its a grille off ebay the last owner fitted to it.

Looks like summit off a 190 e merc lol

Ill get some pics for you 2morrow mate.

Got my octavia on the ramp tonight. Gearbox off to get to suspected crank seal and fing the gear box is fubar!

On the hunt for a gearbox now. :-(

Found a gearbox pretty quick any way and its back on now and getting gears while stationary will bleed the clutch on monday and also gonna replace the power steering pipe that bolts onto gearbox as its seen better days. Hopefully cruising in the vrs soon. :-)

Well ive had the skoda on the road for a few days now and am loving it so far. I still had a few bits to do to have the basics sorted but loving it just now.

Today although i just had knee surgery on thursday had the car out a drive and was great. I came home and painted the spare wheel lol

Heres how it started

Had a rub down de tar and clean etc

And here it is in black

Just did it by myself out in the garden am no painter but am happy enough with the job just to see how it goes. :-)

Got new plates with the car so fired them on too. Love a bit of green these days

Well octavia has not had too much time spent on it after the recent stuff.

I took it in the shed and replaced the bulbs for some blue osram things

.

The cars been going great since i did the few odds and sods on it to get it on the road.

Need to replace a bolt in the front pipe as its blowing but after that i can concentrate on doing some other wee bits so looking forward to that.

Size of that induction kit lol

Bigger is better. Lol
