Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - daniel909 - 17-02-2016

Well I been meaning to start a project of some sort for a while now just haven't had the time as I'm always fixing the daily driver Smile 

I am thinking of building up a 2.0 hdi as I have one in a doner I'm going to take out 

I am unsure on what car I want to stick the engien in was thinking 106 maybe never heard on anyone putting a hdi  in to a 106 before 

This project will be slow going to start with so bare with me the Smile 
Quick pic of the doner

There's a good reason you dont find them in 106's!

they don't bloody fit nicely! The engibe bay was designed for a bolt upright exhaust on the front tu engine, not a 30° lean back xu/xud/dw with exhaust on the back.

205 405 309 would be a better recipient.


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - daniel909 - 17-02-2016

That why u wanted to have a go a putting one in as it would be a challenge you no of anyone that done it before ?


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - bigcheez2k3 - 17-02-2016

Seen an XUD in a 106, was here/.net years ago. 106 NAD has a rear exhaust too.


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - daniel909 - 17-02-2016

I seen a few xud but never a hdi motor in a 106. Don't think I will be able to get the blower down the back anyway so Im going to have to be box mounted


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - Matt - 18-02-2016

Will be a bloody tight squeeze, think a hdi 205 would be better Wink


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - bashbarnard - 18-02-2016

I'm with everyone else 205 base same mounts etc. You can fit them in 106 as I seen xuds in them. But to name a few issues, driveshafts need making, gear linkages need making, chassis needs "notching" to fit gearbox in, engine sits at wrong angle, engine slightly too tall so needs dropping lower than normal. These are just the ones off the top of my head. A 205 is bolt in. Wire up, away you go. Far easier and cooler and safer imo.


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - Piggy - 18-02-2016

104 convertible be my choice

Don't be boring and follow the crowd


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - welshpug - 18-02-2016

Definitely wont go in a 104, engine bay is too narrow and not tall enough, my brother had a 1.1 ZL.


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - daniel909 - 18-02-2016

Hmm only problem with the 205 you can't pick up a cheap one Smile

I got a 3 door, white, 1.9 DT, running, needs MOT but done 500 miles since last MOT. £300.

Bosch as well.


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - daniel909 - 18-02-2016

Don't have 300 hundred pound spare ATM as I got to pay for a holiday at the end if the week also my rent coming out but if u still have in next month I might have it off you


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - welshpug - 18-02-2016

you're in Cornwall, that's where half the cheap 205's are! scrap is on its arse so you should be able to find an mot fail for a few hundred at most.


if you havent a few hundred quid for a decent donor car, then you can forget making it fit in a bloomin 106.


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - mr_fish - 18-02-2016

This is Cornwall, baler cord is plentiful.

Crack on Rhys, anything that didn't have a HDi in from the factory I'll be interested ThumbsUp


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - Piggy - 18-02-2016

Drash on lad.
Ignore mcwelshboring


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - Eeyore - 18-02-2016

RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - daniel909 - 18-02-2016

Eeyore thank you for the link but Im wanting to stick a dw10 in not a xud


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - MY95 - 18-02-2016

Even a lightly tuned HDI would be sweet in a 106/205, would love to see one in a 309 or 405 though!

Same basic engine block size shape gearbox mounts etc so you will run into those exact issues.


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - daniel909 - 19-02-2016

anyway had a few hours spare last night so started to strip down the doner an pull the engine out.

got a bit pissy when i took the front wheels off to find out the nuts had been welded on the drive shafts 
   

   


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - Piggy - 19-02-2016

Ah well, you'll need to sleeve/weld them anyway!


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - daniel909 - 19-02-2016

just why would u weld the nut on anyway

because two new drive shafts would double the value of the car


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - daniel909 - 19-02-2016

i got bits and bobs turning up now gaskets, belts, few other bits and bobs and a turbo which i got at a pretty good price

will be a tight squeeze, but an interesting project for sure

makes me laugh the lengths people go to bodge things back together. maybe not so much when it happens to me

RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - 7057sam - 19-02-2016

Sounds interesting,can't wait for it to be squeezed in Smile


RE: Probably going to end up being a Cornish bodge - MY95 - 19-02-2016

Yeah that belt length is spot on if your not running AC, got 1185 on mine with no issues (because it was £2.50 posted!)
