306oc - Peugeot 306 Owners Club & Forum

Hi all!

I bought the beast on thursday evening in swindon, got there at 8 and by the time i got back home it was 12 30!!

Anyways pics.....









well it would be rude not to.....





Gave it a quick polish yesterday and it hadnt had a polish for years! my chamois was a white/grey!
Paid £250 some service history, 105k unfortunately lucas pump

Plans:
This is mainly for my uni project so it is going to be chargecooled, reason being as not many people do it, give me good grades at the end and i get more hands on experience on 306s.
-Chargecool it
-Remove roof bars
-add door pins (doors dont stay open)
-fix drivers side electric window switches
-fix temp display on dash
-fix rear bumper

it also has an issue starting, it cranks over at a decent speed but doesnt fire just stutters really, it starts much easier on jump leads and once it starts there is a bit of blue smoke for 30 seconds or so. Will post a vid when i get the chance.
It has been sat a while so i guess it will need a new battery.

Looking forward to getting my hands dirty and working on it
All comments welcome

Looks good mate! 3dr white ftw!!!!

More of these popping up now I'm spraying mine though haha

White 3dr! :O

Sell it to me

Looks awesome! Can I lower it? Haha.

Yea the bodywork is fairly good condition, couple dents, small patch of rust and a big crack in the rear bumper but tbh im more fussed on the mechanical side of things as thats what my project is about, would like to get it done if i have any spare monies!

You are more than welcome to lower it james! however it will probs be a bitch and the missus doesnt want to lower it too much as she may have the car after i finish with it, providing she passes her test

I will tell her I will only do it a little bit...haha.

Your little bit is 60mm! Haha!

90!

Sorry my bad!

Stick it at 40. Job done!

Foxy wanna sort my new beam out for me?

Maybe. What you want doing to it?

Lowering. Bought a s16 beam to replace my fubard one.

you going to sell the roof bars? Might be interested!

Ok Matt awesome! I've done mine the notch method, but that's onl because it does need a proper refurb soon anyway. May pm krisB as I have never messed about with the bearing in there etc.

Bars out is quite easy, just don't have the tools myself to get on and do it.

I have tools! Wanna do a weekend and do both beams?

Include me in this too please lads.

Also, white 3 door DTub!? I'm very jealous...

I can do yours whenever! Let me know when ou are free!

It looks good but imo needs some epic lowerage! Lol

I will sort that!

yeah id really appreciate a hand lowering it, james do u have a spring compressor?? ........roof bars are coming off but there is a lock which needs the key which i didnt get when i bought the car, they are only halfords ones. If when they come off they are re-useable then i will consider selling them.

I don't but my friend does!

Mate if you wanted something to charge cool, you could of done mine

thats the lowering sorted, just need a nice set of 205 gti alloys in white wiyh good tyers. hang on a minute, ive got some for sale.

As I said in my thread your welcome to come and have a look at the charge cooler setup on the dimma, it's quiet simple really, and saves having to cut anything to fit boost pipes through and also keeps the piping nice and short

mmm white carrr

whats your uni project on exactly?

Im Chargecooling it, basically it uses water to cool the pressurised air going into the engine instead of air like an intercooler

Foxy-jim Wrote:I don't but my friend does!

Well if we borrowed it we could crack it out in a day?? most of the time will probs be spent on the rear beam though!

Ye I'm sure we could do it! Over the Easter holidays?

Yea sure! i will have to get some cheap lowering springs off ebay
When are the easter holidays??

Basically start of April. I have three weeks off!
