No worries mate, i knew not everyone would like them, i like them and i guess thats all that matters


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - Jimbo - 20-07-2014

Update time again, few bits have happened over last few weeks. First and most importantly the bosch pump was fitted. Absolutely hated the lucas (obviously) there just utter crap. And now can run veg again when travelling any decent distance. However the increase in power/torque has now led to clutch slip. Mainly in 3rd/4th/5th so thats mork work needed. Just 'trying' to nurse it round for few weeks till can be assed to crack on.
Also have flushed and changed the oil/filter and coolant.

Next up it made it too pugfest ok. Not a bad drive up although weather wasnt ideal. There's some pictures floating around of it somewhere

And its been on two sets of wheels since last update ThumbsUp got the powdercoated white speedlines back that were originally on it. Love them just hate how quick they get dirty so i bought some anthracite cyclones off frosty which is what its currently sat on now. Opinions on wheel choice grateful as im so undecided
Cheers

RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - willJspears - 20-07-2014

speedlines ftw. they suit a phase 1 better than cyclones imo


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - Jimbo - 20-07-2014

Hmmm, still unsure which i prefer.
The clones look good now the tyres are black properly.
The speedlines are win also but i hate cleaning them every two three days


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - DougalDT - 23-07-2014

Defo keep the cyclones on now, looks a beaut! Will be even better when front bumper is done Smile


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - silverzx - 23-07-2014

I think the colour doesn't look half bad with the whole green/black colour scheme your rocking.

I'd keep the 'clones, keep 'em black too.


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - mr_fish - 23-07-2014

I give it a couple weeks before there is a different set on there Smile

has cleaned up really well from what it was like. Clutch still holding just?

what turbos have you been ebay surfing for then? Tongue

There not black :/ but ill let you off as there a very dark grey Wink

But cheers i defo think they suit ThumbsUp

And mark, the clutch seems better somehow but ill still be changing it soon. Not been looking at turbos
But who knows if the Gt17 will be back ninja


Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - mr_fish - 23-07-2014

With a working rpm gauge get yourself back on the rollers. Tongue


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - Jimbo - 23-07-2014

We'll see mate, may happen!


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - mikey b - 23-07-2014

I think the gt 17 has to go back on easy Change and as mark said working rpm guage maybe 160 even more it did really shift


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - Jimbo - 16-08-2014

Soooo, clutch still slipping
I dont know what it is i just haven't been too bothered too fix it. Need some motivation back!

Seriously contemplating putting my rebuilt lump in with the gt17 strapped too it. As thats got a new clutch in it hmmm Wink

Only thing done recently is tint the front indicators amber. Oh and some gti skirts are at the body shop being painted


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - Orta - 16-08-2014

Definately the speed lines mate. I never liked clones on a phase 1 tbh. And white is for the win, but you could always have the best of both and anthracite the speed lines.


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - Jimbo - 16-08-2014

The speedlines were sold, im quite happy with the cyclones, for now anyway. Im a bit of a nightmare when it comes to wheels. But do regret selling the speedlines tbh Sad


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - Orta - 17-08-2014

Wheels come and go but 306s are for life


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - Jimbo - 17-08-2014

I can sort of relate to that, as sad as it is ive owned around 8 306s. All 3 phases all being diesels


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - dashmader - 18-08-2014

I speedines in white are like a charm on this car


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - DougalDT - 18-08-2014

Kingfisher with rebuilt lump, gt17 and good clutch WIN Wink

EFA Wink

be nice to have a working RPM gauge for the next Rolling Road session.


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - Jimbo - 18-08-2014

Gonna have to be done really isn't it. Tbh the t2 just doesnt cut it anymore haha.


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - Jimbo - 02-09-2014

Okay, more progress been made with this machine. Mainly just visual bits at the moment,

Firstly i have fitted some black angel eyes, think they tie in well with the whole black/green theme that ive accidentally acheived. Anyway only a few crappy fone pictures

[Image: DSC_0505.jpg]

Secondly i had sent some sideskirts off to be sprayed at the bodyshop. Must say he done an excellent job and it had only cost 60 quid Wink
Really makes the car look 100% better in my opinion

[Image: DSC_0506.jpg]

And last of all i have fitted the latest design of powerflex engine mount, diesel specific one and it has definitely improved gear change, thumping noise i used to get when coming on/off the the throttle hard and throttle response due to less.engine movement.
I had to remove the long shaft so i also replaced the gear oil at the same time, gotta try look after the poor car somehow.anyway a few pics

You satisfied?! that'll be the day!

Does look better with the sideskirts, have you still got the bumper to do? perhaps matey will get the colour match on that right too. Smile


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - Jimbo - 03-09-2014

Yes mark, still need the bumper doing
Will be fairly tidy car then Wink

Hoping to get one off zakk as connors pinched my cherry red one ThumbsUp


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - Chris_90 - 03-09-2014

What's vibrations like with that new design powerflex mount?


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - John1.4 - 03-09-2014

Car looks great in this colour - wasn't sure on screen but in person it's ace,

white speedlines imo just suited it nicely Smile

Its actually not massively different tbh, it was horrendous with the 800rpm idle i had, but i just turned up to just shy of 1000rpm and its fine.

Agree john the speedlines were smart but i still like the cyclones


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - Jimbo - 11-09-2014

Never have any decent pics of my car i tried my best to take a few, phone camera only though.

Thanks for looking comments very welcome ThumbsUp


RE: Kingfisher green PH1 DTS project!! - Craigus - 11-09-2014

Looks sweet! Paints come up nice mate, just need a front bumper now ey?


RE: Jimbos PH1 DTS project!! *pic whore* - Jimbo - 11-09-2014

Yeah, sort the front bumper and will be a fairly tidy motor.
Paint really deep colour when polished/waxed. Fairly lairy i love it Wink


RE: Jimbos PH1 DTS project!! *pic whore* - ash23 - 11-09-2014

love this colour Smile looks much better with those wheels on over the white speedlines. any plans power wise?
