TDi Octavia

Featured Replies

I don't consider this a project car as it's my daily driver, but seeing as it has been modified a bit I thought I'd put a post up. I'll take some pictures after I've washed it but they're a bit boring as it looks very standard.

 

Mods are:

 

Stage 1 map

Straight through stainless steel exhaust, hidden tailpipe

Vogtland 40mm lowering springs and uprated shocks

MTEC slotted and dimpled brake discs

 

Android double din head unit

Mac Audio door speakers

Edge 6x9's in the parcel shelf

Edge 12" active sub

 

Here is my exhaust sound. The audio is a bit crap, I'll film it again sometime on my iPhone

I need some new badges, the current ones are battered. But I was thinking about having something other than the Skoda logo. Anyone know where I can get some custom ones?

ebay,

Bought a Kill All Wipers kit, and fitted it earlier. Not bad, needed to trim a bit of the gasket away on the inside but no big deal. Bung fitted perfectly, sealant seems decent and went in easy. I've gaffertaped over the back for now while it cures.

 

I've also debadged the rear. Not so good result, the paintwork was corroded and chipped around the badges so I'm going to have to correct that...

Nothing done to the car, I'm just using it to get to work and back. The undertray needs sorting out, it is loose and makes a buzzing noise when you're driving along. The bit underneath the intercooler is missing which won't help.

 

I did take to the drag strip at USC though, I was *almost* as quick as a 3.0TDi A7 which made me smile, especially considering I had a passenger. I got beat by a Golf R32 and a stripped-out Clio 182, but I blitzed an Astra :) All good fun
