Hi all after combe yesterday I'm thinking of turning my octavia into a track car so any advise on bits from people that have done it would be much appreciated it was good under braking thanks to the mtec discs and mintex pads I've fitted [emoji106] it under steered in the corners so thinking of changing the lowering springs for coilovers and had a lack of power out of the corners but that all could be down to the driver [emoji4]

Have a look at the bloke who was driving the E46 BMW's project thread as he built an Octy track car which he is now selling

My advise, don't go chasing big power, for track you want useable and reliable power.

Yeah reliable power is what I want mate what's yours running ? Cos yours is a beast [emoji4]

Clutch is fine, flywheel is wrong.

You need a vr6 clutch (normal everyday sachs or luk will be fine), and a G60 / 2.0 GTi (ABF iirc) flywheel
