All the needle bearings had fallen out the shaft in the other side so i have bought another.
To do list:
Inline fuel filter maybe
Finish the electrics and get a battery in and test out mystery switches and see what works and what doesnt. (waiting on new terminals)
Driveshaft in. (waiting on shaft)
Fill box with oil. ^^
Fill the whole thing with water.
Start it!
Bleed coolant (that'll be fun)
Tidy it up.
Fit front mount. That will probably done in dribs and drabs.
Enjoy.

Love this car so much! Gutted I missed out! Treat her well
RE: Joey the boosted 205 racer! - Tom - 11-09-2013
Boost pipes are here, fuel filter, driveshaft and battery terminals on the way, might go over and do a bit more this evening. Just a bit of wiring and some boost pipes i think, and fill the system with water and see what happens.

I am jealous of your workshop, is that a Fiat 126 I see?
glad this awesome 205 has come to Cornwall, will have to get a meet sorted when mine Is sorted
RE: Joey the boosted 205 racer! - Tom - 12-09-2013
Not my shop, no fiat haha. Would love a meet though!
Just attempted a first start, forgot the stop solenoid so just came home to grab a connector block just so i can get it going. Onto boost hoses and stuff after this!
RE: Joey the boosted 205 racer! - Tom - 12-09-2013
Shes* -.- AALIIVVEE!! WOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Yeah didnt take long, somethings up with the stop solenoid wire, just stuck a wire to the battery to get it going. Sounds horrific with no exhaust, i really wish i could keep it like that, or just a 3" upstack haha.
But yeah couple more pics, got an audi tt fuel filter on the way tomorrow, might drive it tomorrow evening! Getting close now.
Was a bit cloudy when it started...

RE: Joey the boosted 205 racer! - Frosty - 12-09-2013
Great news it runs mate! Not much left to do now then?
RE: Joey the boosted 205 racer! - Tom - 12-09-2013
Put a wheel on, finish intercooler pipework, try and sort some kind of exhaust out.
RE: Joey the boosted 205 racer! - Tom - 13-09-2013
Got a bit more done this evening, i now have an rpm reading and a temp reading which is nice. I have figured out which wires make the slimline fan work. The bad news is my f*cking intercooler wont fit, which sucks, so im going to run like this...
![[Image: 20130913_205524_zps8d37270d.jpg]](http://s817.photobucket.com/user/tomw1123/media/20130913_205524_zps8d37270d.jpg.html)
And i also put my audi tt fuel filter on :p Its a pretty big filter in all fairness.

Also need to sort an exhaust, my downpipe should fit with a bit of hammer/blowtorch modification
RE: Joey the boosted 205 racer! - procta - 14-09-2013
coming on well!
RE: Joey the boosted 205 racer! - Tom - 14-09-2013
Will be driving next week

On the ground, got no exhaust and my downpipe needs chopping to fit. And that stop solenoid is driving me up the wall.
RE: Joey the boosted 205 racer! - Piggy - 14-09-2013
surely the fmic will fit...WILL fit with enough chopping cutting??
good to see theres a beating heart
RE: Joey the boosted 205 racer! - Tom - 14-09-2013
It would be alot of choppy choppy and i dont want to cut chunks out of it, just need an intercooler with inlets on the top :/ I dont want to ruin the look of it, its looks so awesome now i'd never forgive myself for taking a chunk out of the bumper/chassis lol
