Yeah, I thought I'd try something different. They look and fit better, plus it's something more solid to kick against. I'll get a pic later, I haven't finished yet though, trying to get covers to fit but I lost my Focal ones Sad.

Cheers Grant. Yeah man, hopefully it isn't a disappointment lol.


RE: Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - silverzx - 25-03-2014

Mmm. Me likely. Smile


RE: Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - Curt - 25-03-2014

Forgot yet more photos...

Positive terminal wasn't very well shall we say, so I replaced it with a spare I had:

Then the speaker spacer in black:

I also trimmed a universal grill to fit, but I've decided it's too big and I don't like it. At least it stops me from kicking it for the time being though:

RE: Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - Tom - 25-03-2014

I swear every positive battery terminal on a 306 look like that!


RE: Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - Curt - 29-03-2014

Few things done on this. First up was a diesel leak, which seems to have been solved by new leak offs. Also changed the thermostat, although it had just been done... But it was apparently a cheap shit one.

Then I needed to do something with the expansion bottle, as the cable ties weren't really cutting it. It has a phase 2 rad so there was nowhere to mount the bracket, so with a lot of adjustment with a Dremel:

(Plus a lot more after this and some holes drilled)

More secure at least. Now just need to stop my airbox from being cable tied in...

Speaking of air, spot the difference:

Not just the disgusting-ness of the old one, then new one is completely wrong... So I now have the correct one to be fitted tomorrow.


RE: Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - puglove - 29-03-2014

Another thread iv totaly missed (need to start coming on again more lol)

RE: Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - Curt - 30-03-2014

Cheers Jamie, although the Vag crap will most definitely be back this season.

This one looks more like it:

Hopefully something more interesting happening soon.


RE: Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - Tom - 30-03-2014

An air filter? Really?


RE: Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - Curt - 30-03-2014

Yes, really.


RE: Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - ginge191 - 30-03-2014

Love this! Love the wheels but can't help thinking it needs a slightly lower profile?


Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - devils_fuel - 30-03-2014

Ah ha found it ! That's very tidy curt Smile


RE: Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - Curt - 31-03-2014

Cheers Smile.

Nah, basically brand new RS2s and 50 profile is fine with me.

RE: Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - Curt - 02-04-2014

They were on the Eunos, yeah.


Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - devils_fuel - 02-04-2014

Ah ha


RE: Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - silverzx - 03-04-2014

So why you using a standard air box then mate..?

That standard induction/inlet pipe really needs to go! Sad

Because it's just a cheap runaround... I don't really care about power. As long as the air filter works, it's good enough for me. I don't see the point in a cone filter on a diesel, although I have plenty sitting around if I change my mind.



So as is quite obvious by now, I've painted the wheels. So here's my £18 refurb.

So first of all was to key up the paint. Luckily they're in pretty good condition paint wise, being fairly new. Then I had to knock the plastic "bolts" out with a punch, as it was necessary to mask:

[Image: KGRbQwI.jpg]

For masking up, I highly recommend fine edge tape. Not only does it give a nice line, as it says, it's very pliable, allowing to follow the curve of the wheel with ease:

Brilliant stuff.

So then, primer (after a sand):

Puuurple:

This one shows the metallic pretty well:

My car was looking pretty strange half way through lol :

[Image: BCCxklO.jpg]

Then set about the very fun (not) job of sanding down the "bolts" to spray them up:

[Image: mj01n6V.jpg]

[Image: ITGNAw5.jpg]

Did the centre caps the same, a) because I didn't like them and b) because I didn't have enough purple left:

[Image: 6zNNSxe.jpg]

Made a "fake bolt re-fitterer" to try and not damage them when tapping them back home:

[Image: 2T2UbYx.jpg]

The result:

[Image: D4ENctI.jpg]

[Image: 0uyPSQ9.jpg]

The finish is better than the factory one, so can't be too bad. I've already decided I don't like the centre caps, so working on something for that.

Apologies for the filthy car, I will try and get some clean ones soon.

RE: Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - bashbarnard - 08-04-2014

I don't usually like non one wheels but these look awesome mate. I take my hat off to you sir


RE: Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - 1616six - 08-04-2014

I love it but I can't work out if the tyre profile is too big, the car isn't low enough.. Or a combination of both?!

Jealous though. My dad had a brand new white 3dr dturbo in 1996 & I've always wanted one.


Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - devils_fuel - 08-04-2014

I kinda prefer the other wheels if I'm honest mate, them in purple..[HEAVY BLACK HEART]️

Well the tyres aren't getting changed, as I said before, they're basically new and 195/50s are ideal for me. It's probably not low "enough" for most, and it's certainly higher than my cars are usually. But, it's ridiculously comfy how it is and I don't think it looks bad, so it'll do.

What wheels? The Cyclones? They're not going back on and I'm definitely not painting them any time soon lol.


Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - devils_fuel - 08-04-2014

My bad curt, it's the same wheels just different colour lol

They looked different in the other colour Smile


RE: Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - Poodle - 08-04-2014

Got to agree with JJ dude, something not quite right about them on the 306 there... Still look awesome though!

What, sort of different like grey kind of different? Rofl


Bianca phase 1 Dturbo - devils_fuel - 08-04-2014

I've still got your juice in the car as you forgot it lol
