[attachment=16347]When I was running it back and forward to work it handled like a dog despite having a gmax on the front with bilstein shocks on the rear. We stuck gauges on it and found it had positive camber on the osf and negative on the nsf so I bought camber plates to correct it
[attachment=16348]I managed to get a set of compomotives which ill have to drop off to the powdercoaters soon. I'm not keen on black wheels plus they need a freshen up
[attachment=16349]When I first fitted the engine and connected the gear linkages I found a internal problem with the gear box which had come on the engine from the written off 306 so got a spare 1.6 gti box and fitted new clutch arm bushes etc. Iv used them on the xud's before and it's a crazy ratio but should be fine for knockhill. Also it's now a push clutch instead of the heavy pull type. I took a dw8 flywheel into Engine Resource and got it lightened then buttoned everything up

[attachment=16353]I found I had a clearance issue with a the gear linkage and turbo. I couldn't find anything online regrading anyone with the same issue so want sure if it was to do with the dodgy variant of td04 I'm using?
I ended up modifying everything for the greater good lol.
The linkages are now fully rose jointed start to finish with bronze bushes on my DIY quickshift and gear stick . The gear feel very positive to say the least and they now clear the turbo

[attachment=16356]The linkages are all fitted and setup but I'll need to take pics.
I got a 205 derv loom from the scrappys and stated to sort it out with amalgamating tape and p-clip in.
[attachment=16357]I'm planning on making my own screamer pipe soon. Not exactly the normal setup but should sound good.
I'm going to make a divorced downpipe and use the wastegate side as the screamer pipe
[attachment=16358]
[attachment=16359]Can anyone tell me anything about this turbo? If it's really bad, I'll just get another to replace it. Iv had it lying about for years.
