RE: Jimbo's 51' HDI estate - bashbarnard - 14-12-2014

Do like the console. Wanna do mine Wink
Clones are awesome. Dont see why people hate em. I.love them


RE: Jimbo's 51' HDI estate - Jimbo - 14-12-2014

Can sort out dipping for people if they are willing to pay the postage. Pm me if interested

Yeah clones are ok, keeps it nice and oem. I did refurb them too because its hard to come accross mint cyclones cheap. Still have the tsw wheels too though


RE: Jimbo's 51' HDI estate - Orta - 14-12-2014

Centre console is a win mate. But different from the norm.


RE: Jimbo's 51' HDI estate - 7057sam - 15-12-2014

Personally liked the stealths more but still looks great

Hydro dipping looks epic aswell Smile


RE: Jimbo's 51' HDI estate - Jimbo - 15-12-2014

Yeah i liked the stealths too, and i have still got them. But at the time it was too low and the offset/width was too much

Now its raised again i may see about refitting them


RE: Jimbo's 51' HDI estate - rd070707 - 15-12-2014

Looks 10x better on clones much cleaner look Smile though if it were me id be after some bbs rs reps, so many about for sale at good money would set it off imo


RE: Jimbo's 51' HDI estate - Eeyore - 15-12-2014

that centre console is awesome. Not my taste but looks good. Can he do bits for us too? Wink


RE: Jimbo's 51' HDI estate - Jimbo - 15-12-2014

Yes srowell he can do bits for others, if you look on ebay at hydrographic films, he can do/get any patterns.
Personally i like the light carbon print as its quite oem looking.

Cheers RD070707 im a fan of the bbs reps but im not sure how they would suit this. And most are quite wide so require arch work which im not overly keen on. You need to run quite low to pull that look off


RE: Jimbo's 51' HDI estate - Toms306 - 15-12-2014

Coming on well tbh! The hydro-dipping effect is cool, though wouldn't my choice of pattern tbf, always wanted engine covers and stuff dipped but still too expensive atm.

I also prefer the cyclones on it lol.


RE: Jimbo's 51' HDI estate - rd070707 - 15-12-2014

You can get 15x7 all round or even staggered 15x7+8. With the right offset i dont think they would catch at that height at all


RE: Jimbo's 51' HDI estate - Jimbo - 09-03-2015

Few pics to keep the thread alive..

Only real update is new wheels again. Had some ariannes on here now some Td pro race 3s

RE: Jimbo's 51' HDI estate - puglove - 09-03-2015

I actually really like it on those wheels!!!


RE: Jimbo's 51' HDI estate - Jimbo - 09-03-2015

Cheers jamie, one thing i found with these even though there only 15s they have really good brake clearance, no where near as tight as cyclones. They are 7X15 ET15 so fill the arches well


RE: Jimbo's 51' white HDI estate - puglove - 09-03-2015

What are they like weight wise??


RE: Jimbo's 51' white HDI estate - Jimbo - 09-03-2015

Well they are supposed to be really light. Considerably lighter than clones that for sure. I haven't weighed them as its not beneficial to me having an estate anyway haha

Think i read they are a touch heavier than pro race 1.2s but slightly stronger due to the bigger spokes


RE: Jimbo's 51' white HDI estate - 7057sam - 09-03-2015

Wheels look spot on Jimbo Smile


RE: Jimbo's 51' white HDI estate - Spoonaltap - 10-03-2015

Looks smart and very clean, thought about painting the roof black? Would match the new rims an awful lot.


RE: Jimbo's 51' white HDI estate - 1616six - 10-03-2015

Love it, exactly how I'd do it if it were mine!


RE: Jimbo's 51' white HDI estate - joshed - 10-03-2015

I want one of these Smile

Hi mate, cant say i have had that thought tbh, i personally don't think it will look great,
Thanks for the kind words though pal

How low is that on the front? That's how I'd like mine, enough to close the gap but not too much it looks stupid, perfect! Looks so good


RE: Jimbo's 51' white HDI estate - Jimbo - 11-03-2015

60mm springs on shorter gmax struts, it drives really well considering its quite low.

It was slightly higher on the standard shocks with these springs but not alot


RE: Jimbo's 51' white HDI estate - WiNgNuTz - 26-03-2015

What sort of bung did you use when you dewipered the boot? Thinking of doing mine now I've fitted poppers to open the bootlid slightly instead of pulling on the wiper arm. Pretty sure the motor is dying now anyway, so might as well get rid of it! Wink


RE: Jimbo's 51' white HDI estate - dhdcdarchy - 26-03-2015

This looks so nice, really clean.

Also love the wheels, suit it well!
I want some -.-


RE: Jimbo's 51' white HDI estate - highwayman306 - 26-03-2015

Looks awesome tbf, always thought they looked better blacked out all round with a bit more character than the 3 or 5 door. Are the roof bars a functioning thing, maybe taking those off and black roof like mentioned above would be a good look? Very monochromatic Wink


best engine too Big Grin


Also, I'm sure iv heard of hydro dipping on headlight masks...?


RE: Jimbo's 51' white HDI estate - Piggy - 26-03-2015

Damn those wheels are hot


RE: Jimbo's 51' white HDI estate - Moonwalker - 26-03-2015

The cars looking good. Smile


RE: Jimbo's 51' white HDI estate - Kezzieboy - 26-03-2015

Does make me miss my pro race 3s, to be fair!


RE: Jimbo's 51' white HDI estate *stage 2* - Jimbo - 01-05-2015

Right then, due a long overdue update,  car is now officially "stage 2" and has been about a month or so.
Much thanks too frosty for the help we had a busy day ahead and couldn't have done it all alone in one day.
Basically turned up at frostys as he had a ramp to use, read the current stage 1 map off and sent it off to steve at hdi tuning who swiftly sent.back two maps one full torque one limited, both with egr delete.
Next we pulled the engine and fitted

A new genuine cambelt kit
Water pump
Valeo clutch 
Egr delete plates and binned off the egr cooler
Changed the turbo
Fitted 406 elbow etc
Cleaned out the inlet manifold 
Fitted a full 2 1/4 inch stainless exhaust


And pipe up and intercooler from scratch

So yeah we had a busy day ahead and despite both getting very stressed we cracked on
