Silverzx's White 205 1.9 DT XUD
#1
Went and picked my new car up on Saturday.

It's a white 3 door 205 in XLD spec (poverty spec - manual windows, cloth seats etc) with a XUD 1.9DT engine fitted by WelshPug.

Been resprayed recently so body is very good condition, inside is also very clean, a very "retro" feel to the components and dash compared to the 306.

Here's some pictures:

Big list of things to do but should make a change from the 306 which I've had for almost two and a half years now.

Spec list to date (updated 16/01/2015):

Done:
Lower front (40mm 306 springs)
Refurb speedlines
Converted back to standard H4's
Replaced battery
Replace alternator (twice)
Boost gauge
Re-wire radio loom
Junction box for gauges on manual switch
"no smoke, no poke!" sticker
Aero wipers
Oil, oil filter and fuel filter
266mm HDi front brakes + DOT 5.1
Extended speedo cable


Parts Sitting Around:
Rev counter (STDT cluster)
GTI subframe (need wish bones)
Central locking kit

So there we have it, my new coaling machine.

Comments welcome. Blush

I've got a set of clocks from a stdt with rev gauge to fit in my xud 309. If you work out how to wire them up give me a shout! ( I haven't even attempted it yet)

Cheers for all the comments guys!

@Daniel306 - No plans, probably will just FMIC it rather then messing around with the TMIC. On that note, would a Xantia manifold fit under the bonnet? Only one way to find out I guess!

@DumDum - How much did you pay for your 2.1 conversion? Tongue

@SamBarker - I'll let you know mate. Might end up with an after market counter but well wait and see.

@Puglove - I know the feeling mate but it has a year MOT, more or less standard/unmolested, lots of new parts, couldn't justify NOT getting it lol!

@Ginge - Nothing wrong with 3 doors! 3 doors = track spec, 5 doors = i have kids spec.

Finish uni for Xmas on Friday so going to be spending some good hours on it over the Xmas period!

Not really a lot to update, the clutch is dead, boost gauge is in, rewired the radio loom and have ordered a switch for it as I had a few problems with the ignition live.

Really looking forward to having a working clutch in it as I haven't even driven the car properly yet!

Comments welcome as always.

Haha no I haven't mate.

Will be doing aux belt tomorrow or sunday so I'll measure that up which will be a start for working out what we need to know to use the W terminal I believe?

Can't be that hard to wire it up properly. I have a 1998 306 engine in the 309 with the plug from the flywheel sensor thing. And I have some 205 stdt clocks with a rev gauge so surely it's just a case of a 12v, an earth and a feed of some sort? Can't be that hard!!

Trouble is with a universal rev gauge is that it will need to be calibrated with some sort of laser gun or something?

I would of thought you could wire the tacho sensor from flywheel to the standard STDT clocks which you say you have.

Pretty sure thats how the standard 'STDT' & 'DTURBO' models rev counters work..
