fitted a dream on mine. 100 times better!
how did you get the rear bump stops to fit? Mine seem oversized by quite a few mm!
Front fitted like a dream, slid in no messing
bump stops I used liberal amounts of copper slip and a screwdriver and eventually they went in. Felt quite sick seeing the break pipe tbh knowing I'd driven it 
RE: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - Piggy - 25-08-2013
yeah I know that feeling. But at least you got it sorted before it went pop!!!
glad about the bushes...nice to see people reaping benefits of all the emails!

RE: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - SKoob - 25-08-2013
Well today didn't got to plan
The rad I got needs the phase 2 type bottom hose to fit so have had to order that so more ££££ and in changing the thermostat I managed to break the plastic housing 
Anyone know if these are available from pug or happen to have a spare?On the plus side I got the other wishbone on and the other front braided hose on. Just the rears to do then can bleed the brakes
RE: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - Piggy - 25-08-2013
I'll have a look...not sure I do.
they do get brittle. shame that
RE: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - SKoob - 25-08-2013
Yeah seems a bit of a piss poor design tbh. Needed to remove the hose to get to 1 bolt and in removing the hose it disintegrated grrrrrr. Means I'll be cycling to work Tuesday lol
RE: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - puglove - 25-08-2013
Iv got a ph2 bottom hose if you want it £10

Oooh awesome
you about tomorrow? Don't suppose you got the plastic thermostat housing too?
RE: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - puglove - 25-08-2013
yeah im home most of the day tomorrow, havnt got the stat housing im afraid
Re: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - SKoob - 26-08-2013
Went to puglove's to get the hose only to find it was the wrong type
ahh well, was good to have a quick chat and see his 3 pugs got home and finished the brake hoses and bled the brakes. I bloody hate doing anything that involves brake fluid its horrible stuff

Hopefully the correct hose will arrive from ecp tomorrow and I'm popping to pug to order the thermostat housing at lunch, all being well she'll be sorted Wednesday
RE: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - Piggy - 26-08-2013
I got a thermostat housing, but it has a connection for the top large rad pipe but also a connection for a smaller pipe.
I also have two bottom hoses, one with plastic clip and one with metal..if that helps at all?
Re: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - SKoob - 26-08-2013
Its the metal ended hose I needed, all ordered already though. Bugger
sounds like a different stat housing to what I need unfortunately
Re: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - SKoob - 26-08-2013
Thinking of lowering this very soon, any ideas on how much at the rear? My d turbo was about 30/35mm but was a bit to much gap for me, fronts were about 3 threads left on ta tecnix coilovers so will be what the front is down by
RE: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - Piggy - 26-08-2013
45mm is ideal i think. thats what i am hoping come sunday on mine. anymore and it just looks like you have been to tesco
RE: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - procta - 26-08-2013
I love Phase1 306s! I think they look the part in sliver or black, with compomotive alloys on in black or a dark grey.
Re: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - SKoob - 27-08-2013
Parts ordered from Pug, should be here tomorrow morning
hopefully bottom hose will be delivered while I'm at work today, will all be sorted Wednesday afternoon all being well. Will hopefully lower this at the weekend all being well
RE: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - puglove - 27-08-2013
dont put TAs on this
and you need to be tucking a bit of tyre on 50's on the rear
& dont listen to piggy's duff advice gis is going to be irish low next weekend!
RE: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - Piggy - 27-08-2013
no, its not!!! GT is the idea jamie, not dumbass who cant carry passengers!
RE: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - puglove - 27-08-2013
well you got tue dumb ass bit........ so why not have the cant carry passengers bit??
Re: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - SKoob - 28-08-2013
Bottom rad hose arrived and fitted, not sure that the spring clip is gonna hold all that pressure though
is the metal end meant to go all the way in to the rad? Window regulator clip arrived and on fitting the new clip I snapped it although have had to remove regulator anyway as the cables had wrapped and twisted themselves round. So have ordered a repair kit Thermostat housing was not at pug but will be tomorrow. Being carless sucks 
RE: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - puglove - 28-08-2013
yeah i was a skeptical as to weather the clip was going to hold, but its doing alright atm lol
Re: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - SKoob - 29-08-2013
Got the stat housing and fitted it, fitted new fan switch, filled and bled coolant and started car. All working lovely now
no leaks, the clip is holding and even the fan works 
RE: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - Piggy - 29-08-2013
yay
worth all the agro now
Re: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - SKoob - 29-08-2013
Oh yes, definitely
already feels epic even with just uprated bushes and decent front tyres. Once past about 4.5k it just takes off and if kept above that its awesome fun on twisty b roads, oh and the noise 
RE: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - SKoob - 30-08-2013
Gave the car a quick wash as it's all back in 1 piece, here's how she's looking now

Bit of a monster truck at the moment but will be lowering her soon, just finding the motivation to tackle to rear beam

Looks very good glad to see it on the road now. I know what you mean over 4.5k they go well. I need to sort my bushes out still.
RE: Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6 - lolsteve - 30-08-2013
