Featured Replies

hi, ne where an just bought my first car- a 1.3 mpi felicia

My friend used to rally his in the skoda trophey an has given me his rally alloys an digital clock for the dash.

what im in need of help with is wndering where i can get the parts to turn my car into a replica kit car that skoda used to rally?

im a massive fan of skodas an would love to show all the saxo an corsa boys round my area not to under estimate them.

even if it is just looks. due to the fact an major rngine mods would kill my insurance.

so if any one can help would be much appreciated.

cheers.

hey guys, cheers for the advice, been looking at your suggestions an there all cool.

:)

also how hard is it to switcgh the rear brakes to disk??

Don't forget - any modification from a standard car that affects performance or handling has to be declared to the thieving insurance company. This includes bodywork mods.

any mods! evan if you only change the tax disk holder, your supposed to tell the thieving ba$tard insurance man.

mind you, when i specced mine as fully mod. my insurance fell by half????

also how hard is it to switcgh the rear brakes to disk??

Dunno, but I'd not bother unless you're running thin spoke mags. The rear brake pressure limiter (line limiter) means that you only ever get about 15% of the total braking effort from a non ABS system on an FWD car going to the rear brakes anyway, so you can't overheat the drums readily.

you can adjust the rear pressure.

Ferry nuff, but I'd never met an adjustable production car line limiter (as opposed to competitiion brake bias control). That said, you're still not going to get more that 15 to 20% of total braking effort to the rears before they start locking up due to being unloaded.
