Yeah it was his car. I signed up on there but seems like such a dull forum i havent been on there since lol!


RE: Joey the VNT boosted 205! - bashbarnard - 20-03-2014

True the guys are good for technical stuff sometimes but it doesn't seem as friendly over there. I've always liked this 205 though its why my Mrs now has a turbo diesel xud7 one.


RE: Joey the VNT boosted 205! - Tom - 21-03-2014

I did some more, straightened up the backbox sort of, the more level it goes the closer the pipe gets to the rear beam tube so i didnt want to go much higher than this...

Put my front wheel caps on, didnt realise it can be done by removing one bolt, didnt even have to jack up the car!

Aaaaaand gave it a quick hoover, was full of mud/straw/general farm stuff.

What brakes are you getting? 266/283?


RE: Joey the VNT boosted 205! - Tom - 21-03-2014

Im on 266's on the front and drums on the vack but the backs do nothing with the foot brake. Darren said they're just so worn out all the fiit brake effort is taking up slack. So im going to get drums and shoes i think. Just need to find some time to whip the drum off and check what braking system i have.


RE: Joey the VNT boosted 205! - darrenjlobb - 21-03-2014

Video of what i got chance to record, not alot im afraid as was to busy / kept forgetting, but slight effort.

With regard to brakes, id whip the drums off first, see the condition of your shoes, im imagining they could be slogged right out, so get new set of shoes, then adjust tghem up, will explain how to do this to you tom on FB, and then save up and replace your front discs and pads, as there crap / cook instantly. Literally had brake fade after 1-2 60mph corner brake sessions..


RE: Joey the VNT boosted 205! - Tom - 21-03-2014

We were doing more than 60!


RE: Joey the VNT boosted 205! - Frosty - 21-03-2014

Great video as usually Darren. Always worth a watch. Looks real tidy job tbf

Running de-filtered i guessing tom?


RE: Joey the VNT boosted 205! - Tom - 21-03-2014

Yeah defiltered sounds amaze balls. Might well do a guide on rear shoes so everyone know how to do them properly!

But yeah just picked up a couple stubby oil filters so i can wire up the gauges later! Yipee Smile but on the other hand I cant find a fuel filter for the life of me Sad


RE: Joey the VNT boosted 205! - Ruan - 21-03-2014

Now you see what I was on about with "wide powerband" and "instant power" lol....


RE: Joey the VNT boosted 205! - deggerz - 21-03-2014

That sounds bloody awesome


RE: Joey the VNT boosted 205! - Grant - 21-03-2014

Havent stopped mate, i was smiling as soon as i seen it, my cheeks were hurting when we were burning up 3rd gear and im still smiling now. Done a few more hard pulls today and it really is impressive.


Joey the VNT boosted 205! - devils_fuel - 21-03-2014

Lucky shite Smile. No excuse not to come to zacks on 4th April then Wink


RE: Joey the VNT boosted 205! - Dum-Dum - 21-03-2014

Tom your a lucky lad Smile


RE: Joey the VNT boosted 205! - darrenjlobb - 21-03-2014

Your going to shit your Y pants when you wonder what happens when you turn the fuel up Wink hehe

Not that ive already tried that Tongue hehe to be fair though dont, as unless you regulate down low, you WILL tear the shafts out that car it develops WAY to much torque

RE: Joey the VNT boosted 205! - deggerz - 21-03-2014

And yes i beleive it is, at some point in the future. Theres no timeline on it though...


Joey the VNT boosted 205! - td_dan - 21-03-2014

Yep 1.6/diesel shafts with the matching diff in the 306 box Smile


RE: Joey the VNT boosted 205! - Tom - 21-03-2014

Im using a 306 diff... Its a 306 d turbo box, from a running 306.


RE: Joey the VNT boosted 205! - td_dan - 21-03-2014

has the box been changed since you had it off max then tom?

if so he probably changed the inner cup on the longer shaft Smile

can you get a pic of you aux setup tomorrow mate as im intrigued as to which tensioner you used as theres 2 lol


RE: Joey the VNT boosted 205! - Tom - 21-03-2014

Yeah i changed the box and the small shaft. the aux is just alternator with a pretty short belt with the lollypop style tensioner.
