    S1 Rallye

    @craigyt Dude its your car and I am sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable. There are many ways to increase the track regardless if it is a stage car (tarmac/gravel) or track day/road car. On my book this is not the most appropriate thats all. But this is me. If it works for you Its fine by...

    S1 Rallye

    @craigyt What I am trying to say is that the wheels on the white S1 appear to have a very unusual offset (I hope it is the angle) that I havent seen in any P.S built manual either for grN or for gr A. I know very well these wheels ;) dude

    S1 Rallye

    @Donny_Dog @craigyt my apologies I meant geometry lol (hard to imagine I know). I hope I didn't insult you. This offset is recommended by Satchell?? :persevere:

    S1 Rallye

    Sorry but why someone would want to ruin the suspension geometry of an S1 rallye is beyond my understanding. I would happily give my cup (with cambelt/dephaser and suspension refresh) for a good s1..

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Removed the original ugly and bulky gear knob, opened a thread to the gear stick and now I have a nice quaife nylon one in place. A how to will soon follow since it took me and a friend less than 45 minutes without removing the gear stick and without giving any pain to the gear linkage.

    172 cup windscreen

    @ADS1982 Because I did that job last year. the windscreen is the same as the base models. I would advise you to get the windscreen seal kit from Adam. Its the surrounding 3 pc kit and cost about £20. It does worth changing it now. Lastly make sure that they clean properly the old glues.

    Gearbox Oil Recommendations?

    @Laine_16v Agency suggested 75w90 based on what ground. It wont make a difference or because it is better? I am asking because I am also looking and was seriously thinking buying Red Line to preserve my box until the rebuild time..

    Thanks @Ph1 Tom No I didnt go there but I ll give them a ring cause today was of those days that my high blood pressure was associated with the other's lack of professionalism.

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Inner powerflex ARB bushes, steering rack powerflex bushes and a new renault exhaust back box. If my top mounts were properly fitted I would probably say that these have made the most significant difference compared to new wishbones and track rods/ends. Driving it with an exhaust that it doesnt...

    172 cup tie rods and track ends

    Use FAI 556263 or First Line ss6263 if I remeber correctly and Lemforder ends. Have a search but 99% these are the correct part numbers.

    New tyres have transformed car.

    Octavia combi and Clio is the perfect combo. From school runs to rally support :yum:. Great choice The only downside is that skoda has adopted the same mentality and attitude as the rest of the VW group in After Sales.
