Best of luck with the re build bud, you've got a really nice car there, and I'm sure you'll enjoy it when it's finished.
RE: Hashtag YOLO ph1 sigma GTI-6 - ezb - 01-04-2015
Yeah, when its finally sorted...looks like its been maintained by a pair of blind Labradors up until now

You'll get there though! You seem like you want everything spot on, there's not a lot of your cars left around, you've got a very rare car there, that will stand out from the rest when you get it finished.

The BMW I bought was the same, maintained (if you could call it that) by a complete muppet.
They had bent and stripped the threads on the sump plug
They had just gasket sealed the cracked thermostat housing
They had prised off the led airbag light from the instrument cluster (to keep the light out)
No antifreeze in the water....Antifreeze in the cooling system is how I found the cracked thermo housing
They had destroyed the brake disc retaining screws so they didn't actually retain the dis
All of the problems bar the antifreeze is something you just cant check on a test drive. But I am eventually sorting the problems and getting the car how I want it.
Keep perservering ezb, itl be worth it in the long run.

Bank holiday Monday...took the head off again...take two..no obvious damage to the head, can only assume its something the company who rebuilt it have done, wasn't tapping before hand
RE: Hashtag YOLO ph1 sigma GTI-6 - ezb - 09-04-2015
reply from the people who are doing the head work today, Valve guides on Cylinder 3 were the issue, sorting them out free of charge...bit of good news(ish) for the first time

K&N filter and scorpion exhaust on, after a decent decat if anyone passing has or knows or one
Head has arrived back, replaced two valves and guides on cylinder 3, hopefuly this time around all will be OK!

also, stole my mist jets off this old girl

RE: Hashtag YOLO ph1 sigma GTI-6 - ezb - 21-04-2015
two head rebuilds later...passed its MOT with ease yesterday...needs a good clean and polish

Glad to see it back on the road and we'll done for sticking with it.
RE: Hashtag YOLO ph1 sigma GTI-6 - Frosty - 21-04-2015
Glad to finally see some good news for you!
RE: Hashtag YOLO ph1 sigma GTI-6 - ezb - 22-04-2015
Cheers, going to run it very carefully, give it a good polish and take some pictures...still quite surprised by the condition of the car....passenger mirror seems to have suddenly stopped working for some reason, but apart from that
RE: Hashtag YOLO ph1 sigma GTI-6 - ezb - 29-04-2015
touch wood., passed 200miles its been faultless. still needs tidying up, roof its shagged..bonnets not much better..unless anyone has a mint ph1 sigma bonnet I'll probably just ignore these areas
wheels need painting..really not a fan of the shitty red

still not sure what I plan on doing with this car..really needs lowering..and more power
RE: Hashtag YOLO ph1 sigma GTI-6 - Iceman299 - 10-06-2015
So you decided to improve the 'shitty' red by painting them yellow?
Looked wayyyy better red imo
Edit: just read through the thread, man you've had some crappy luck with this car. Good on you for getting it all sorted
RE: Hashtag YOLO ph1 sigma GTI-6 - ezb - 10-06-2015
Sundance yellow is faster...proven
RE: Hashtag YOLO ph1 sigma GTI-6 - ezb - 23-03-2016
So all running fine..touch wood!! for awhile, had issues with the spoox top rad hose/thermostat adapter weeping, but all seems good now.
went to a local charity rolling road day to see how many ponies it had left.
made 175bhp..well just shy of
RE: Hashtag YOLO ph1 sigma GTI-6 - Frosty - 23-03-2016
Decent result chap, whats it had done to make that power?
Oh and looks so much better on yellow wheels
RE: Hashtag YOLO ph1 sigma GTI-6 - ezb - 02-04-2016
Its just had a rebuilt head, bit of polish and porting, decat, full system, k-n panel filter..and always ran on octane..if that actually makes any difference
![[Image: IMAG0809_zpsnphzlgj9.jpg]](http://s304.photobucket.com/user/ezbdread/media/IMAG0809_zpsnphzlgj9.jpg.html)
Wasn't a fan of the standard ride height, always looked a little high on the front? especially on 16s
So bought some adjustable KW coilovers, down about 40mm

Very good result then considering the work.
Looks so tidy this car. Great to see as the phase 1s are defiantly a dying breed
RE: Rebuilding A Ph1 Sigma 6 - Ben - 02-04-2016
Looking good for 20 years old, well done for sorting so many bodges out!
RE: Rebuilding A Ph1 Sigma 6 - Orta - 03-04-2016
Yellow is much improvement mate. Good looking ph1 this
RE: Rebuilding A Ph1 Sigma 6 - ezb - 04-04-2016
cheers, next job is MOT, then respray the roof as its suffered with the peel! going to do the rub strips done in satan black at the same time as they're getting a little grey.
RE: Rebuilding A Ph1 Sigma 6 - ezb - 21-07-2016

I'm sad an bought a genuine brand new set of yellow fogs

RE: Rebuilding A Ph1 Sigma 6 - procta - 21-07-2016
coming on well there, yeah I know what you mean about owning forum cars, but at least all is well now.
the red 306 I remember reading about a good few years ago.
RE: Rebuilding A Ph1 Sigma 6 - ezb - 22-07-2016
Should have took a picture of the peel before, was pretty bad, just needs a good polish

RE: Rebuilding A Ph1 Sigma 6 - C2K - 02-08-2016
Now this is a lovely car. Good show.
RE: Rebuilding A Ph1 Sigma 6 - Frosty - 03-08-2016
Looking pretty mint now, sigma has to be 1 of the best 306 colours! This is certainly 1 of my favorite cars on here. Good work mate.
RE: Rebuilding A Ph1 Sigma 6 - ezb - 04-08-2016
Cheers, still can't decide what to actually do with it! Was supposed to be a run around until my D-turbos sorted, but its such a good car, had a full rebuild I'm half tempted to sell that off and purchase some trumpets, a charger or some lumpy sticks
RE: Rebuilding A Ph1 Sigma 6 - Ben - 04-08-2016
I assumed this was an upgrade from your dt and that the dt was destined for sale/scrap. Good to hear its not scrap, I liked that car. I can see the dilemma though you have a very nice 6 here!
