yeah, i never use the sunroof anyway, its easier to bond in apiece of lexan and paint it white that it is to reshell into a non sunroof shell
also saves a bit of weight, have you ever lifted a full sunroof cartridge? not the lightest things in the world
RE: White phase 1, now with added truck turbo and dyno results - Piggy - 23-02-2013
lol! thats one way!
RE: White phase 1, now with added truck turbo and dyno results - ozonehostile - 25-02-2013
ok then, so a few people have asked me how long it takes to build a truck turbo 306, heres what i wrote down during the build, bearing in mind this was all done during evenings and weekends after work
Bought a Bianca xtdt that had been off the road for a while under a tree, it was green, so the job list started with
clean,T-cut and polish entire car - 10 hours
repair ignition wiring due to non starting - 2 hours
repair drivers door loom - 3 hours
fit new window motors in all doors - 1.5 hours
sand and spray sideskirts - 3 hours
fit sideskirts - 2 hours
remove and spray mirrors - 1 hour
fit laguna splitter and refit bumper - 1.5 hours
repair dents and scratches - 6 hours
phase 3 headlights - 2 hours
new cv joints and boots - 3 hours
now for the good bits:
turbo fitment and manifold fabrication - 15 hours
remove turbo and refit (many times) - 8 hours total
fit and refit downpipe - 2 hours
relocate brake lines due to turbo fitment - 0.5 hours
relocate battery top boot - 4 hours
weld in battery box to boot floor - 5 hours
relocate water hoses - 1 hour
oil lines for turbo - 1.5 hours
replace leaking oil returns - 1 hour
fabricate cold air feed - 2 hours
relocate wiper hoses and modify bonnet - 1 hour
heat wrap exhaust manifolds and downpipe - 2 hours
coolant and oil change - 1.5 hours
refit interior - 2 hours
adjust clutch cable as rubbing on driveshaft - 2 hours
trim wheel arch liners - 1 hour
4 wheel tracking - 1 hour
suspension height adjustment - 2 hours
fit exhaust- 2 hours
and finally, tax, mot and clean off oily handprints- 3 hours
thats most of the important bits done, there would be several more hours of swearing, threatening to scrap it, cups of coffee, more swearing and angle grinding on top of that
there you have it, how long it roughly takes to build my car
enjoy

I thought about some 4mm lexan and just bonding it in bit of universal edging round the outside!! Looks oem
RE: White phase 1, now with added truck turbo and dyno results - ozonehostile - 27-02-2013
Been waiting for some bucket seats for the last few months and now 4 sets come along at once! just got to choose now, best choice is looking like a pair of carbon kevlar recaros
also managed a couple of layers of base coat on the morettes during coffee breaks at work.
just need to start my new job then i think itl be time to order some forged shinies
RE: White phase 1, now with added truck turbo and dyno results - ozonehostile - 28-02-2013
Starting to get there, still having to wait hours between coats due to freezing temperatures, should be finished by now!

im banned from using that after "i broke it" using it for heatshrink haha
RE: White phase 1, now with added truck turbo and New Wheels! - ozonehostile - 02-03-2013
finally managed to get a coat of gloss on while the weathers nice which i was pleased about:

and then after a trip to see sam last night, got new shoes on, another set of pro race 1.2's but 16"
already looks better but could maybe do with coming lower by about 5-10mm perhaps

yours seems to sit at the same level as mine, defiantly needs to go lower at the front.

yeah i think il start looking for the C spanner then haha.
also got some solid beam mounts from sam that will be going on with the new beam and brakes. should be nice and low then
RE: White phase 1, now with added truck turbo and New Wheels! - sam - 02-03-2013
Looks good dude
RE: White phase 1, now with added truck turbo and New Wheels! - Luhoer - 02-03-2013

I wouldn't ever bother painting that bonnet, I kinda like it

Haha, I get very mixed opinions from people on the bonnet, il take the stickers off once I fix the heatgun as that's my biggest annoyance about It other than it rattling all the time.
But still, staying yellow for now as I would rather spend my money on making it go faster :p

Busy morning

RE: White phase 1, now with added truck turbo and New Wheels! - Jonny81191 - 10-03-2013
Very nice! Now spray the bonnet
RE: White phase 1, now with added truck turbo and New Wheels! - Tom - 10-03-2013
Looks awesome man!
I actually like the yellow bonnet :/

Looks good... Crystal morettes FTW...
RE: White phase 1, now with added truck turbo and New Wheels! - Chris_90 - 10-03-2013
Is it me or dont the hocky stick bits not quite reach the wings, looks really good tho!

Ah, yeah its an issue I found when they were on, basically the donar car for the lights had a dimma bodykit, wide arches start at the indicator so the previous owner has trimmed the hockey sticks to compensate. Very annoying but Il think of something to fill the gap
Was a bit unsure on morettes but soon as I put the first one in I loved the look. Also notice the gap between light and grill where I trimmed It to fit the crystals
RE: White phase 1, now with added truck turbo and New Wheels! - zx_volcane - 10-03-2013
Looking good!
RE: White phase 1, now with added truck turbo and New Wheels! - Luhoer - 10-03-2013
the morettes look awesome!
btw are the morettes H4 or why can you just use the inner hole as a cold air intake?
RE: White phase 1, now with added truck turbo and New Wheels! - ozonehostile - 10-03-2013
The outer lamp is h4 yeah, the inner lamps on morettes are just extra driving lamps.
When I find some crystal inner lenses I might put them back but I also kinda like the look of the air feed trumpets
RE: White phase 1, now with added truck turbo and New Wheels! - Luhoer - 10-03-2013
oh okay.. I hate H4s but the look of the morettes makes up for it.
you can use one lamp and the other as cold air feed, seen that on here somewhere, looks awesome

I'm not the bipggest fan of h4 bulbs either but morettes are worth it, half the weight of crystals too
Might be changing the front bumper for a phase 1 sports so could have spotlights in that to compensate for h4s

Just get some hocky sticks and cut them up and glue the bit on
lol
RE: White phase 1, now with added truck turbo and New Wheels! - ozonehostile - 11-03-2013
it will probably end up something like hacking up bits of hockey sticks haha
