You have PM mate
RE: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - Grant - 07-04-2014
So nothing terribly exciting happened to the car this week, or last week. Or the week before, to that fact.
New engine hopefully in at the weekend.
But in the meantime, this happened;

For anyone who saw my garage before, it was a mess of crap piled up with a filing cabinet in the middle. Too hard to work properly in.
Much better now
Need to line the top with steel still, but it will do for now

Loving the 'tools' lined up next to the drill
RE: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - Piggy - 07-04-2014
Needs more hammers and chiller for the beer...
Also needs a 306oc© calendar!!
RE: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - Grant - 08-04-2014
Vital motivational tooling next to the drill! Haha
There's actually a freezer on the left, so Ill just bung some beer in there for 15 mins when needed
Re: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - kentiiboii - 08-04-2014
Nessasery tools for working on a 306!
RE: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - 306Dan - 08-04-2014
Where's the selection of hammers???
Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - Jonny b - 08-04-2014

RE: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - cully - 08-04-2014

RE: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - Grant - 08-04-2014

RE: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - Grant - 10-04-2014
So spent this evening preparing for the engine change that is looming this weekend
Cleaned and painted the seam welded subframe :
Before:

And after. Also chucked a coat on the bonnet badge as it needed freshening up:

And gave the K&N cotton cone a soak in detergent: Niiiiiiiiiiice

Hoping my heat wrap will turn up for tomorrow, so I can get the spare manifold wrapped ready to go on.
Will nip to pug and get some gearbox oil, then am good to go

I can't be bothered to look back
but what engine is going in?Are you going for all the win grant,
RE: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - Grant - 10-04-2014
Just chucking nialls old GTi engine in for now.
It's sitting there doing nowt.
I'm getting naughty thoughts about Subaru flat 4 cyl turbo lumps though. Just know jack all about those engines...
Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - devils_fuel - 10-04-2014
Sounds like fun times ahead
A Subaru would be all the win, would you be going AWD ?
RE: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - Grant - 10-04-2014
Probably just RWD.
Tbf it's a new idea. Need to weigh up the possibilities.
Wouldn't be too bad to AWD if the RWD is going in I suppose.
Worth a laugh!
Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - devils_fuel - 10-04-2014
Mate a flat 4 AWD 306 would be awesome and so much fun, you never get bored of it
RE: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - 306Dan - 10-04-2014
awd would be awesome but i dont know whether you could get the engine far enough fowards tho
RE: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - Dum-Dum - 10-04-2014
The wheelbase of a scooby is pretty close to that of a 306
RE: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - 306Dan - 10-04-2014
hmm who's got a scooby i can cut up??

Yeah, you're right.
Believe it or not I got the idea watching ChopShop, where they cram a Scooby engine into a MK2 gold for Jonny Vegas.
The chassis legs on the scooby are a lot closer together than on a 306, so if anything, there will be loads of room width ways, as for length-ways, if I have to hack about the exhaust tunnel to get a transmission in, which i can't see being to bad, who cares?! lol
RE: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - Midnightclub - 11-04-2014
Do eeet!

I just watched that, the front end looks wrong!
RE: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - Grant - 11-04-2014
I missed the second episode last night on TV, and haven't seen the finished article. I'll make sure to have a look lol
Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - devils_fuel - 11-04-2014
No you don't grant, it's shite
Hate to say it but they ruined the golf..
Re: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - kentiiboii - 11-04-2014
The rear and roof looks ok, front end is terrible. But I agree ruined the golf.
RE: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - Nath140889 - 11-04-2014
A series 1 impreza floor pan and wheel base is only ten mill out both ways, could be an interesting shell transplant , wiring and dash would be fun though
RE: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - Matt - 11-04-2014
Need a hand with the engine atall man? I've got tomorrow off
RE: Ell Diablo - Hydraulic Clutch In - Niall - 11-04-2014
Matt we are doing the engine at mine. Your welcome to come up but parking is difficult at the moment so will have to park a fair way away!
