Like the front bumper, not sure about the grill

i'm looking at getting the suspension lowered (20mm) on mine.
anyone got any recomendations - mainly of where in sydney/canberra that can do it?

at the moment, i'm looking at H&R, Eibach or Weitec springs.
if i don't go more than 20mm, stock shocks should b fine.....so seems to b the general concensus.

trying to find who in oz can supply and/or fit the springs on my car.
i prefer not to ship them in from overseas. i'm looking for a 1 stop shop - where they supply & fit.

i'm not changing the wheels, as previouly planned. i like the look of the neptunes. they suit the color well.
i just need to reduce the gap between rubber & wheel arch

Does anyone know much about Milotec exhausts? I've noticed they do one for the Superb's but can't seem to find any info online about experiences? Also I haven't found any other companies that seem to offer exhaust options for the 2.0tdi engine. here's the link

Milotec Auto-Extras GmbH - Skoda Tuning und Zubehr - Exhaust

hey JR, ask Brad - I think(?) he's based in Sydney, and he has some good contacts.

If you want "german" springs then I guess Heasemans in Sydney would be a good place to start. They are the importeres for Bilstein. Expect to be treated with disdain & pay through the nose.

Wholesale Suspension at Penrith are always good value & easy to deal with - I'm sure they could work something out for you.

If you wish to stick with CBR, then there's a Fulcrums local. They are generally more on top of things than the "no bull" mob. Also try Capital Steering.

I have a mate in CBR with an MX5 that's had a lot of suspension work done - I'll send him an email & ask who he uses.

yeah, capital steering is on my shortlist.
a mate also mentioned inline steering & suspension - apparently he knows the octavias quite well. only problem is he gets busy.
will give him a call too.

dpmperfomance (uk) got back to me said it would cost me 125 GBP (185 AUD) to ship springs only to oz.

From my mate with the MX5 & RS wagon

The guy I use is Chris at Inline Steering in Queanbeyan.

If he gets busy that's a good sign. I've seen photos of his workshop - worth a visit as there's usually some nice machinery in there.

yup, that's the one - Inline Steering & Suspension in Quenbeyan.
so that's another vote for that mob.
cheers.

Strongly considering a muffler delete on my TDI.
Perhaps a new rear muffler and tip whilst I'm at it.

Don't get me wrong, I love the look of the stock one... Just, I doubt I'll be able to save it, with the stock muffler disppearing.
