Bonjour fellow 306 compadres
About time I started a thread for the new whip...

Completely standard at the moment. It will be staying this way until the s/c gets fitted
I say that, black masks and a cherry front badge are going on this week

RE: Charged Astor 6 in the making... - sam - 24-04-2013

Yeah I am mate, why?

Thought I would get up at a reasonable time and crack on this morning

First job was to fit my Black masks, It didn't go perfect as one of the top bolts sheered off. No biggie, didn't need it anyway
Masks done

Second job, fit my Cherry front badge. Only 2 nuts, what could go wrong?
Think I overtightened them, it pulled the badge back too much and the outside lip has started to come away
Badge done

Third job, Swap my seats out of the Dtub into the '6, and vice versa
Seats out of the '6 nice and easy, Passenger seat out of the dtub nice and easy..... Drivers seat 3 bolts out... One stuck fast with the torn bit recess nicely chewed up and non existent. No way of cutting it off or anything.
Three seats back in and give up for the day

Almost successful. Almost

I'll wait until I'm back in work next week and hammer a bigger torx/ alan head in and make it work

Some pics, excuse the dirtiness of them both lol. Lost all interest in washing them after today

Pfft, I've got a charger kit to be saving for... Brakes, suspension and wheels will come once the kit is fitted Smile

Unless a second hand B8 kit comes up for sale second hand... Lol

RE: Charged Astor 6 in the making... - lewisdmz - 29-04-2013

Noo how can a thread go down hill so quickly, really not a fan of the cherry badge. Ignore my opinion though ;-)

On another note, epic plans!

RE: Charged Astor 6 in the making... - Eskiiboi - 01-05-2013

MY EXHAUST IS HEREEEEE

After owning the 106 Rallye, the importance of having some proper rasp, rather than all noise and boooooom was vital.

Only 1 exhaust I know of does that properly, the Pugsport

After a quick google, Special Tuning UK seemed the best option, and the most Pugsport-like equivalent for the 306 as they are a Peugeot sport dealer...
You could very easily build a competition car just from there website, but it wouldn't come cheap.

After ordering it Monday night, it arrived today (Weds)
The price with delivery... £350. If it sounds like I think it will, worth every penny

Pic-whore time

False cat/mid box thing

Back box

View from the back with the same internal baffles as a 106 PugSport

Few for luck

MOT is due on the 19th but I'm going to get it booked in for next week, and get the new exhaust fitted next weekend Smile
