Kuba's ride, Škoda Felicia LXi |

What's up guys.
I've decided to make one of those car threads, too, so here it is, my very first ride. Photos from when I've brought it home... (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/9pLyOUU.jpg) (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/ZWdNZRs.jpg) It's 2000 Škoda Felicia LXi. Engine is 1.3 MPi, it has 50 kW (about 68 HP) and 105 Nm, wich isn't that much but it weights only 935 kg, so it still runs pretty good. Its equipment is central door locker, power steering (or how to call it), CD player, roof window, mirrors and door handles in the same color as the rest of the car, third brake light at the top of the car, lights that turn on automatically when I turn engine on and front fog lights. My plans are do some major checking of the car and see what needs to be changed, then maybe some light tuning like new rims and suspension, maybe some new color (after I take care of the rust) and also new speakers and maybe new brakes and engine upgrade, we'll see... |

so, at friday me and my friend changed bottom pins and all cuffs on my car. I must tell you, I was really lucky that nothing serious happened with the old ones. It is hard to take care of a car when previous owner didn't give a f**k about it.
(IMG:http://i.imgur.com/n28ywaM.jpg) I think you can guess which pin is the new one (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/fDvFuAe.jpg) (IMG:http://i.imgur.com/B523czU.jpg) next goal: chaning steering pins and also oil and filter changing (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile2.gif) |

nice ride man, I never saw one but are you sure 16s are too big? I mean, unless you want to roll REALLY low, 16s sounds like a good deal to me... those wheels on it are 12 or 13?

well all basic Felicias had 13" rims and extra series had 14" rims. I think more than 15" rims are too big. They would be uncomfortable to ride, because tires would be too thin and also it wouldn't look good with such a big wheels

So I dont think you wont have that problem if you choose the best shock absorber.. This post has been edited by Vicent M.: Jun 30 2013, 11:04 PM |

Not really, our roads are like this (IMG:http://www.abc.es/Media/201305/08/1-carreteras--644x362.jpg) (IMG:http://www.autocasion.com/actualidad/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/_main_image_128426_51628f1b0a36b.jpg) comfy roads are highways and recently paved... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif) Also I say comfy when we are comparing shock absorbers, some friends mounted yellow Selex and they say it was a f**king s**t for the daily. My friend uses KYB for daily, atm is -3 and it goes pretty wheel. sorry kubason for the offtopic (IMG:style_emoticons/default/toung.gif) This post has been edited by Vicent M.: Jul 4 2013, 10:13 AM |

well most probably I will buy 14" rims, those I've posted but so far I don't really care, because there are much more important things to do on the car and I don't have infinite money

Lol it's eastern europe, we have no roads too, that's why my Passat is still OEM. Drive a car with rims which size is over 16" is a big problem.
Remove that erect hook at rear of car. Would look better. |

Yeah, driving 16" rims here would be too uncomfortable, because on this car the tires would be too thin, like 195/45, or something similar, not talking about the fact that they would look too big on this car and would make it ugly |
