    Performance Parts

    Hi, just wondering if anyone can shed light on this.

    How do you work out what performance will suit the mk3 octavia rs. Can you assume that if it fits a mk6 golf gti it will fit the skoda?

    Specifically looking at a short shifter, sway bars and perhaps front and rear control arms.

    You mean Mk7 GTI right? Short shifter would be identical to a Mk7 GTI, front sway bar "should" be the same but its likely the rear one is different. Front control arms would be the same but once again the rear ones are likely to be different.

    Gti rear sway bar fits as myself and several others have them
    Just make sure you don't order anything for the R
    Steering, suspension, engine parts are all pretty much interchangeable
    Exhaust down pipe is also a direct bolt in, cat back different story
