RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - darrenjlobb - 11-11-2014 Nice work Sam, love this car RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - bashbarnard - 11-11-2014 Really liking this car. Nice to see something a little diffrent. 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Sambarker - 17-11-2014 Again not a massive update! Had a couple of hours free today so started stripping steering rack, hubs etc off. Even dropped the subframe to inspect/clean up Before: [attachment=20132] After [attachment=20133] Also trimmed down the exhaust tunnel to give a bit more room And cleaned the rusty scuttle panels up ready to cut the rust out and repair Drivers side [attachment=20134] Passenger side [attachment=20135] Wednesday this week I should be trial fitting the 406 power steering rack, c5 hubs and 407 brake calipers RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Grant - 17-11-2014 Awesome progress. Cant wait to see all the new stuff fitted! RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - procta - 17-11-2014 getting there! how are you going to wire in the Hdi lump, would you just drop a 406 loom in? 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Sambarker - 17-11-2014 Using a single plug 206 loom RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - procta - 17-11-2014 (17-11-2014, 03:54 PM)Sambarker Wrote: Using a single plug 206 loom are you not going to wiring in a few extras from a one that was better specd? I just kept it all basic for weight and for less of a f*ck on. No ICE for me! 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Sambarker - 17-11-2014 The car will use its exiting wiring loom for everything bar the engine management which will run from a separate stand alone stock ecu and wiring RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - bashbarnard - 17-11-2014 The more you do to this car the more it makes me want one!! The way your doing the wiring would be how I would. Saves a lot of trouble trying to splice things in its not necessary. One thing ive seen done in the past as well is to put an led on the dash somewhere for the "ecu" light. 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Sambarker - 17-11-2014 (17-11-2014, 07:55 PM)bashbarnard Wrote: The more you do to this car the more it makes me want one!! I'll probably use a spare light on the dash for that. 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Sambarker - 01-02-2015 RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Piggy - 01-02-2015 Cracking work me old mucha by the pics, does the GTB just bolt up?! RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - pugtk - 01-02-2015 if you ever want to sell that block RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Piggy - 01-02-2015 Is it just the pic or does the belt look proper in the skew?! 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Sambarker - 01-02-2015 Engine not timed up in pic there's no tension on the belt RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Piggy - 01-02-2015 Nicely done. Looks real tidy fitment RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - 205 Mardi gras - 01-02-2015 Wow! Looks like you really cracked on this weekend. When I left you'd only just dropped the pistons out. Looks really tidy and thanks Sam for all those parts you gave me. The Turbo adaptor looks impressive too. Now I need to get a move on with 205. ......Luke. RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Uberderv - 01-02-2015 Nice work, are the head studs off an XUD? Just wondering because of the spacers you've machined. 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Sambarker - 01-02-2015 (01-02-2015, 09:11 PM)Uberderv Wrote: Nice work, are the head studs off an XUD?

Yes they are XUD style head studs RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - mr_fish - 02-02-2015 nice one sam! 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Sambarker - 02-02-2015 Ok so I'll give a little more info about what's been going on this weekend Big thanks to Ruan and James for coming up and lending a hand. So saturday was spent stripping the old block and swapping the stock rods for the forged ones that Tom sourced. They were fitted with new sputter bearings and the original 70k Pistons and rings. We then assembled the top end using the original head which had been freshened up with new seals, and skimmed etc. A victor Reinz headgasket was used along with a set of XUD style ARP head studs however these were unexpectedly (fault in my part!) too long. Not to worry, a 7pm visit to a farm to use a lathe to turn down the some stock xud spacers (from 28mm to 20mm) So they were fitted and torqued down, and a gates cambelt kit and new water pump also went on for good measure. James got busy and made up an adaptor for the gtb2056vlk so that it would bolt straight onto the stock hdi manifold. I had some turbo adaptor plates made at a local machine shop. And that was pretty much it for day one. Day two was spent continuing to build up the rest of the engine with cooling system components, injectors, fuel rail etc etc. And today was spent timing up the engine, fitting a gti6 flywheel, XUD style CG Motorsport 4 paddle rigid clutch kit, and a 306 Hdi gearbox (converted to pull type) The gearbox got new seals, and we also fitted the alternator on a cut down bracket and the rest of the bits such as cambelt covers etc So then it was time to trial fit the engine. We had little knowledge whether the turbo was going to foul the bulkhead, or the steering rack, or the heater matrix, or the master cylinder, or the brake servo! So anyway, first attempt the turbo was sat on the ARB. So that was fettled by trimming excess turbo away. And she's in........sort of. Slight issue with turbo being VERY close to the steering column. But I am going to re drill the holes on the rack to move back an inch. But there is definately plenty of bulkhead clearance! The only other slight issue! So anyway progress being made, wiring to sort, rear axle to rebuild, fuel pipes to run, I've got a Walbro low pressure fuel pump, fuel regulator, and a 7 row oil cooler which im going to run the return fuel through. Also need to sort oil and water lines for turbo, exhaust, rear axle, chargecooler, a lot of body work to do, and Ideally want the car back on the road in no more than 10 weeks! RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - zx_volcane - 02-02-2015 That's some great progress there, engine in on the mounts and pretty much clearing everything, win win. Can't wait to see this on the road again RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Paul Baldwin - 03-02-2015 Can't wait to see this running Such a rare car now that's having a new lease of life breathed into it! I found an article on French cars yesterday and they reckon there's only 97 left registered in the UK. http://petrolblog.com/2014/02/the-rarest-french-cars-in-britain/ RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Piggy - 03-02-2015 Awesome work! Wish I'd known I would have come and lent a hand!! RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Frosty - 03-02-2015 Coming along nicely Sam. How come you went for a XUD style clutch rather than a hdi 1 just out of interest? RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - bashbarnard - 03-02-2015 Love this. Would've gone for xud style as well due to better clamping force 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Sambarker - 04-02-2015 XUD clutch is pull type and a much stronger design of clutch RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - procta - 05-02-2015 that's progress! 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Sambarker - 14-02-2015 Simple alternator rig Experimenting with mk1 focus 23mm m/c Quick mock up of chargecooler RE: 305 Dervmafia Winbus - Piggy - 15-02-2015 Nice wok Sam |
