RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - Jimmer021 - 08-08-2013
The car is getting there now, not sure if it's gonna be ready to get motd in time though, all depends how well I get on tomorrow.
First thing I sorted today was driveshafts, got a pair of 406 and used from the inner bearings back. Few pics to show the difference between my shafts and the 406 ones. The 406 shafts are slightly longer, have larger cvs and the shaft itself is thicker.

Got the charge cooler in, engine rad, charge cooler rad, oil cooler, slam panel on and headlights in. One headlight is wired up but I need to sort a side light holder for the other one as the headlights only had one and phase2/3 ones don't fit.
I have misplaced the water hose going from the expansion bottle to the stat housing so have to look for that or sort out a tempory hose.
Tomorrow is a case of getting the driveshafts in, and front brakes on, fill up all the fluids and put the bumper and trims on etc, hoping by tomorrow night I can have it ready for mot Saturday morning.

Good luck mate.
RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - Jimmer021 - 11-08-2013
I have good news, and some really bad news
It failed the mot on loose fuel filter and smoke test, sorted that out at the test station so have 12 months mot
Bad news is on the way home from the mot the turbo went bang

RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - zx_volcane - 11-08-2013
Noooo
At least not too much of a job to change given its location
Any idea what caused it to go pop?
2.2 Dimma Hdi - devils_fuel - 11-08-2013
That's a shitter about the whistle maker, fingers crossed it gets sorted easily
RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - Connor - 11-08-2013
Didnt you have that reconditioned? If so thats gotta be a warranty job?
RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - Dum-Dum - 12-08-2013
That sucks to eat a turbo so quick
RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - spike2002 - 12-08-2013
Sucks about the turbo dude nice to see my old twin optics have gone on a nice one of a kind car
RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - Jimmer021 - 12-08-2013
Yeah the turbo was reconditioned and it lasted about 20 miles
RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - Anton - 12-08-2013
Thats a shitter, ring the company?
RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - Jimmer021 - 12-08-2013
Just been on the phone to the turbo company he is arranging a courrier for this afternoon, when he gets it he will strip it down see what's caused it and let me know

RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - Jimmer021 - 27-09-2013

Good news !!!!
RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - Mattcheese31 - 27-09-2013
how is it mate?...
RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - Jimmer021 - 28-09-2013
I haven't driven it yet as I had work, but taking it out today.
I'm going to run it in first then I need to look at getting it setup, anyone have an idea what sort of boost pressure is gonna be good to run? I was thinking around 24psi?
RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - Dum-Dum - 28-09-2013
Depends what sort of power you want to make, you can make alot of power with not alot of boost with the right mapping.
RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - Jimmer021 - 29-09-2013
I want decent power, but at the same time don't want to be destroying turbos every 5 mins as it gets expensive lol
Would like about 220 which is what is supsodly was, I'm not convinced the vnt control is working correctly at the moment either
RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - padge - 29-09-2013
thought this was 245/400lbs?
RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - Jimmer021 - 29-09-2013
I have not seen any proof of what is was, just what people have said
RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - Piggy - 29-09-2013
shame about the turbo...but I suppose it pays to have it done with warranty!
would love to see this in the flesh
RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - samsdad2011 - 29-09-2013
Top work on this mate how have I never seen it around town l
I work at euro Taunton if u need more bits too
RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - Jimmer021 - 29-09-2013
I have only had it back on the road since yesterday so that's probs why haha
Okay cool, we get quite a few bits from euro
RE: 2.2 Dimma Hdi - Poodle - 30-09-2013
The previous owner put a dyno graph up years ago iirc, 220 rings a bell.
