[Carlos182]

Bought from Dan! off here in October. Still looking pretty much the same as when I bought it until after Christmas...
Until then I'll list some spec;
Bosch'd
Lowered at the front
Buckets
106 wheels painted yellow and black
Partially striped.

And some photos





Future plans:
Track wheels and tyres
Fully strip
Lower the back
Cage
FMIC

Absolute beast. PS. I dont know if you heard the othher day, but i was speaking to TGK and I said if you wanted to get this dyno'd in its current setup, gov'd bosch, no IC etc then id happily pay like £15 towards to the dyno cost (y) plans are basically win aswel btw, so glad your taking this on mate <3

I won't take any money off you fella for it.
Would be good to dyno before and after anyways to see what's what.
Hopefully doing FMIC early next year as long as a 406 manifold fits straight on.

PS: to anyone in the know, if it comes to it, what's the procedure for removing PAS?

[Eeyore]

Love this car so much! Should have bought it myself at that bargain price!

[Dum-Dum]

Shes looking good but needs lowered at the back and clones (LOL)

[mark_airey]

Its alive still......................

like the plans, keep it up!

[Matt]

It's looking awesome. Still loving the yellow lol

[Megamonkey]

Aye the yellow and blue looks amazing together!

Now get your biatch ass Intercooler on! Lol

[Poodle]

So glad this stayed on the (a?) forum, epic little beast.

[Carlos182]

Yeah it's still alive

Still struggling with how I'm going to get a manifold to fit without removing PAS or converitng to electric PAS.
Anyone know what has to be done to remove PAS, just a case of removing the PAS pump?

[mark_airey]

Non PAS rack would be needed from a lesser 205 mate, other then that just remove all power assisted bits

What's the differences between the racks? Would it still work without swapping them over? Haha
Removing PAS is the last option tbh. When it's warmer need to have a real good study of what's what and where to route pipes haha!

[Ben]

I'd definitely be interested in knowing power figures as it was when Dan had it, be good if you could RR it

It looked pretty damn quick booting it around the taybarns car park

Keeps up with throughlou's 6. Well until heatsoak starts to kick in, no IC FTMFL

[Diggers]

afaik its heavyer to run a pas rack removed rather than a non pas rack, but i think go lecky,
4 wires, 2 pipes, easy

Nah, man up and grow some muscles instead

[hbomb1905]

This an XUD7 or 9?

Looks cool but defo needs the back lowering!!

[SonnyRoby]

Xud7

[Dum-Dum]

Mate the electric PAS pump off the 106 is an easy fit on the 306 as the pipe fittings are the same. give me a shout if you want a full explination as its a bit long to type.

looks nice man, loving the 106 wheels!

also, 182 in your username, reference to a particular [awesome] band?

Want a set of 205 speedlines tbh... but i'm still not sure if I should sell up and get another sedan...

If you're referring to blink 182 then yes it is, and if you're not then GTFO :p

[samass]

yeah man no doubt, that'd look sick!
and if you go sedan, do what that other guy did, two door. looks so awesome!

yes i was infact referring to Blink 182, and you can see, I think they are quite good...

yellow speed lines of course and that solves the great question of all time!

also I spy my 1.4 in the bottom picture of the first post :dance:

White.....
And what's the great question of all time?

[samass]

agreed, white

[Eeyore]

what the 182 meant ;-)

[Carlos182]

Indeed white. Everyone else seems to disagree tho.


There's only one answer to that question though, and I think you'll find it's what I answered

[Foxy-jim]

Ths is awesome mate! Definitely need to drop the back soon! Haha.

[Kezzieboy]

Properly love this car!
