matts xsi euro project - Matt - 06-03-2012
Well I've got the head off poodle so now my rebuild can commence!
Re: matts xsi euro project - Foxy-jim - 06-03-2012
What are you changing in the rebuil?
matts xsi euro project - Matt - 06-03-2012
Taking the cams and valves etc out, giving the head a skim and a pressure test. Gunna see if the valves are reusable if not new valves, then the obvious cambelt kit to swap. Give the bottom end a clean. I may look onto cams but still unsure at te moment
Re: matts xsi euro project - Foxy-jim - 06-03-2012
Fair enough! You know you want cams!
matts xsi euro project - Matt - 06-03-2012
I do. But dont know if I CBF with the remapping side of things
Re: matts xsi euro project - Foxy-jim - 06-03-2012
Um man up and do it!
Re: matts xsi euro project - Midnightclub - 06-03-2012
Tbh mate, for the price of cams and a map you could just get a 6' lump put into it and then have even more power to begin with, plus afaik the 6' ecu is a lot more mappable

Just need door rubbers, a bootlock, and a rubber that runs along the bottom of drivers door and it will look sweeeeeet!

Looks nice mate, still think you should have done it darker though

The paint cost me £12.99 for 750ml tin. Couldn't argue with that. Plus it's Matt so no faffing about with perfections. It was mainly because I was sick of seeing the scratches and scuffs and the black bonnet. Gf said to why not paint it as your off work? So had me and the gf pairing it for the last two days, spent a day sanding.
Just got to smooth the front bumper, and because I can't be arsed with sticking the sidestrips back on I'm going to smooth the sides. It's kinda of a ratty euro thing now
I have fallen in love with my car again. Just need my spacers to come through, and fit my engine mounts. Maybe a couple of new pullies and fit my cambelt and all will be awesome

Shit the bed matt! That's awesome
hats off to you for just manning up and doing it too! Looks amazing from the pics You need to delock your boot now tho
Also everyone loves a shiny shiny turbo strapped to a minty engine... Low-boost turbo-6 engine isn't toooooo expensive...
Re: matts xsi euro project - Midnightclub - 24-03-2012
^^ This boot defo needs to be smoothed now! Looking lurvely now though
Re: matts xsi euro project - Fozzy - 24-03-2012
Agree with everyone, smooth boot is needed, really easy to do now you don't need to blend to moonstone.
Re: matts xsi euro project - Dum-Dum - 24-03-2012

Smooth boot is a definate. Along with smooth sides and smooth front bumper.
What's the best way of hooking up the rear to pop with the rear wiper mech? Anyone got a how to?
Re: matts xsi euro project - karl1989 - 24-03-2012
ye thats what i did just get the wires from the wiper and put them to the boot lock then you just have to get a piece of metal on the boot lock and modify it abit so it pops. btw car looks really nice. did you use a spray gun
Re: matts xsi euro project - Connor - 24-03-2012
Read dum dums smooth boot guide, its in there I think. Its really easy, you just use the central locking motor
Re: matts xsi euro project - Dum-Dum - 24-03-2012
That looks like it needs a second coat mate.

Ive done a guide in the guides section mate.
You can use your C/L motor in the boot as the popper to save buying one.
