Looking good!

Although that rear beam looks fairly poorly, I could tell from the first picture before I even scrolled down and saw the rest of the post lol

haha actually yea from the first picture theres quite a difference in camber lol, tbh the front wheels seem like the has positive camber? weird

also the guy who i bought the car off said it was mapped by a place in barnsley, it goes alright when turbo comes in about 2k but after 3k it seem to loose a bit of power, this normal? lol

For a stage 1, yeah. Depending on how good the map is. My current daily is OK to about 3.5k, but I know of stage "1" maps that will pull HARD to the redline.

i see, MR whippy map needed i thinks but got some hissing noise when boost comes on too, guess i should check for leaks , also i wouldnt mind the coilovers you got for sale too, shame i need a beam first Sad

RE: Hello all, New HDI owner, NorthEast - Jonny81191 - 20-09-2013

Nah, get the coilovers on and then source a beam Big Grin

RE: Hello all, New HDI owner, NorthEast - Jonny81191 - 20-09-2013

Just bear in mind, I think it's only fair to warn you, the TA's I have for sale are pretty damn harsh.

RE: Hello all, New HDI owner, NorthEast - Kezzieboy - 20-09-2013

Looks like a phase 2 rear bumper, has it had a shunt?

it could be you know, new to all the 306 stuff lol, the corners of the bumper doesnt line up to the rear quarter mind, could this confirm that its a PH2 bumper?

RE: Hello all, New HDI owner, NorthEast - Kezzieboy - 20-09-2013

That's probably just good old Peugeot built quality tbh lol

could indicate that it's taken a bump though.

RE: Hello all, New HDI owner, NorthEast - Eeyore - 20-09-2013

Its a phase 2 bumper for sure. My 1.4 had that too after it had a bump. Looks in great condition though! How much did you pay?
