Featured Replies

Hi there people,

just thought i'd put a link up to some details and photos of my car,i've added some new pics that i took at the weekend after cleaning it:thumbup:

some of you will of seen it before but for those who havn't then here it is http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2309233

hope you like it,comments welcome good or bad :D

Looks expensive!! but nice.

Must admit I don't like the wheels, but the rest of the motor looks great.

Obviously a lot of time, money and love going on there!:thumbup:

Yes lots has been spent but i don't want to add it all up cos it may make me cry:rofl:

and you may not like the wheels even more soon as there been refurbed black with silver rims :D

yea looks nice mate but the change with the wheels will look better i think

Got to agree I don't like the wheels, make it look like a standard octy with a bodykit on.:thumbdwn: but i liked the models wheels !:D

Love the vRS radiator decal though:thumbup: how did you do that?

Ha ha all those gauges would confuse me I have a hard enough job lookin at the speedo :P

Good work mate

well i think it will look better when the wheels are refurbed with the spokes black like the radio control car but we will see,i'll post pics when there done to see what people think.

and i just made a vrs stencil up and sprayed it onto the intercooler to make it stand out from the crowd:D

quite suprised it hasn't been described as c.h.a.v.v.y yet as thats what i usually get,but theres always time for that :rofl: keep the comments coming

It looks very nice. Change the wheels and it would look great

Nice... I like the gauge in the air vent.. and the intercoler looks really good.

The thing that caught my eye the most is the RC shell..... v.cool.. where did you get it? :D

When I used to drive my Manta GTE, I had a 1/10th scale copy of the car for my RC cars.. never even thought of looking for one of my Octy.. mind if I ask where you got it?

Think you may struggle to find an octavia bodyshell for your r/c car cos i know i did,the shell i got was made by carsson but it was discontinued years ago and i think the company was eventually bought out by tamiya,i searched for a long time and finally found one for sale on an r/c car forums for sale section but the guy lived in austria,ended up paying

Yea, nice motor, once again alloys not sure, they look better from distance but your idea for them should be nice.

With all your mods what bhp are you running?

I'm hoping i'll like the wheels once there done:D and as for power output then i don't know really as i've had various different figures on different rollers but its usually around 200bhp at the wheels

Thanks for the positive comment:thumbup: and the ride is not too bad but you definately feel the pot holes though:finger: most people would recommend 18s but if you want 19s then go for it :D

Nice and shiney Danny, a fair bit of elbow grease in that I bet. If only i could be bothered!

Well it wasn't all my own work cleaning it as a mate machine polished it last week to get rid of the swirls in the paint and i just had to wash it off and wax it :D

awesome looking car there m8.again alloys dont do it justice.

could do with some samco pipes, anyway the front bumper and vrs looks great

Looks nice mate, again, the alloys need changing, but hey you already know this :)

May have gone for only two pipes or a good sized single, but it's all down to pref :)

I aim to own one within the next 2 weeks, and I aim to mod it a bit...

I'm gonna change the zorst and get it chipped but what will it take to get to around the 240bhp?

Martin.
