306oc - Peugeot 306 Owners Club & Forum

May 'swell stick up a project thread just to keep track of things.
Most of you know the car from *another* forum, Bought this off KrisB in AUG 2011 as a replacement for my dog of a PH2.

This is how she stands at the moment,





Lowered 40mm front 50mm rear, *healthy tune* on a K14 & bosh pump with about 23/24PSI boost. Smooth grille, Blue S16 interior, straight through exhaust with 4" back box, PH3 rear lights & twin optic headlights, Fondmetal 4000 alloys on toyo proxy tyres. Ph2/3 centre console / dash.

Haven't really done anything since buying the car other than maintaining it & adjusting the tune a wee bit. Quite a few plans for next year though, hopefully sooner rather than later,
Starting off with a respray of the wheels, not sure what colour i'm going yet but hopefully something a bit larey !
Want to remove the "dimma style" fuel caps and replace with standard ones.
Smooth PH3 boot & de wiper.
Then start on the FMIC build when I have saved up a few pennies

All feedback/advice/criticism is welcome.
Jake

Absolutely love this car.
More pics

Il let the photos do the talking................


























All in all, a great success!! Broke some pliers, broke the throttle cable mount thingy, got stealth bummed, Jake blew some smoke rings and a gov mod might have happened too.... :dance:

Jake test drove it to work as he was nearly late as it was (Due to above items being lady gardens and breaking :roll: ) but he said it goes well! Just need to do some adjustments with the throttle cable as it doesnt quite reach full throttle when you press the pedal all the way down, nothing half an hour of fudging about cant fix anyway...

niceest p1 ive ever seen :clap:

just wondering what good p1s are making in england at the moment??

I sold this to Jake for £1400 including the sound system. That was with EVERYTHING working, excluding mirrors because it's got cabriolet pods for tweeters

Most other ph1's fetch no more than about £750.

Hope everything is going great with the car though Jake. I do still miss her and if you ever decide to sell up i want first refusals

Ah I didn't realise this was kris old car! Do have a soft spot for black ph1s

I really like this car really tidy

Terrible start to that one and also not the best recording. sorry guys :oops:


Both of them are about 7.5-8 seconds. hard to tell from the videos.
Still some adjustments to the accelerator cable needed, but overall i'm very happy with the improvement.

Edit: /// Kris did you ever send that spare fob ?

best P1 ever. I would keep the fuel cap as i really like them! Havent seen them on any other car so stands out a lot!

Ever since I went to krisb's and got the car done and saw those wheels, I've been looking for a set for sale haha. Been checking everywhere once a week. Anytime I look, if I find some there a million miles away lol.
Such nice wheel. Don't ruin them jake haha

Well if i manage to find a decent sat of those aidials or w/e they are called then you can have first refusals on them if they go Matt

Sweeet fecking love the wheels, I'll start saving for when this happens haha

Jake, na mate it's sat on the shelf at work gathering dust in an envelope with your name on it. I'm a shitbag for not getting things sent

Matt, (sorry bout this jake) they wont fit over any other brakes apart from 247's without using 10 OR 15mm spacers. They're already ET11.

I'll make them fit, I f*cking love them haha, couldn't stop admiring them while I was in the workshop and you were doing my car haha

Lmao well theres no rush bud just whenever your next at the post office

& yeah thats the reason I might be changing the wheels, want to upgrade to the 307hdi brakes eventually.

Glad this is now on the road all the work that has been put into this you got it at a bargain price .

Damn it ! New clutch required, Anyone had a clutch done at Mr clutch?

Reviews?? They have quoted me £250 which seems reasonable?

I had clutch done at mr cluch and they are TERRIBLE. My one wasnt adjusted properly so the bite point was on the floor. They didnt want to sort it out either. The workmanship was terrible
DO NOT GO TO THEM
Not just me. My mates dad had a simlar experience at a different centre
Also the warranty is completely worthless

do it yourself? takes few hours, did a clutch and gearbox on mine, took bout 4 hours with lots or brakes doin other cars.

Or take it back to krisB :-)

£250 aint bad but aside form the poor workmanship youll get a rubbish pattern clutch not a genuine valeo one so youll kill it quickly

Would love to go to Kris's just Long way to go with a knackered clutch !

Ill have a look about, f*cking cars !

Well I'm currently wearing in a new clutch, ended up having to go to Mr clutch as it was getting so bad ! But they did fit a genuine Valeo & I made sure they showed me it before it went in, & have changed the rear engine mount & outer cv joints so it now drives so much smoother!

Next on the list is paintwork starting with the wheels, so come payday will try something that may not be to taste of most people and then I need to touch up some of the paintwork on the car.

Sorry for the lack of pictures but as i have broken my Iphone I dont have a camera handy But just for good measure.. heres some dan! took.




Oh and I need to resmooth the grille !

This car is awesome mate!

love this car. everything about it.

Cheers guys

only thing i didnt like about with whilst in kris hands was the blue stickers over it so now they've gone not far off perfection for a phase 1
