My 1.4 China project!!! - Foxy-jim - 12-12-2011

Hi all,

As said in my newbie thread, many of you will already know me but for those who dont I have a 1.4 306!

So far I have:

Lowered my car a lot on coilovers
4-2-1 exhaust manifold and full stainless system
VTR inlet manifold
Induction kit
Smoothed bonnet and boot
Phase 3 spoiler
Changed the headgasket and cambelt
Gti rear beam

Not a massive list as trying to balance the car and paying for uni haha.

Here are some pics:

With alloys (which are now for sale)

So future plans...

Flare my rear arches
14x8.5jrears and 7.5/8j front banded steels
Shorter and stiffer coilover springs
Gaz gold rear shocks
Polybush engine mounts
Smooth bumpers
VTR engine block
Cams
Standalone ECU
Throttle bodies
Re-upholster seats

Probably more when I think about it! Haha. Let me know what think!

that is one hell of a list of parts there mate!! all on a small engine. but nice to see someone modding a small engine rather than just plonking a gti engine in

Re: My 1.4 China project!!! - Foxy-jim - 12-12-2011

Ye I wanted to do something different really! Once ive done that may look into port polishing and engine balancing! But that is way in the future! Haha. Once that list is done, i will be happy!

Re: My 1.4 China project!!! - Garlicbread - 12-12-2011

Re: My 1.4 China project!!! - Eeyore - 13-12-2011

Car looks amazing mate. How much are you looking to sell the wheels for? Big Grin

Re: My 1.4 China project!!! - Foxy-jim - 13-12-2011

I'm looking for Â£375 but that obviously includes basically brand new tyres and spigot rings so they sit on the hub with no movement.

You would need 20mm spacers to run them.

Re: My 1.4 China project!!! - Dum-Dum - 13-12-2011

I have an arch roller, you can come and use it for a small charge

Re: My 1.4 China project!!! - Foxy-jim - 13-12-2011

Will that flare them?

Re: My 1.4 China project!!! - Dum-Dum - 13-12-2011

It will indeed, its a proper bodyshop spec one. Chances are itll crack the paint though (weather i do it or weather a bodyshop do it) although im no pro

Re: My 1.4 China project!!! - Foxy-jim - 13-12-2011

Well I have the number of a guy who works on show cars and Sam is getting me a number so will see what prices they give and will compare with yu if that's ok?

Re: My 1.4 China project!!! - Dum-Dum - 13-12-2011

If were only talking about rears only and your willing to come to mine and lend a hand then i reckon Â£20-Â£30

Re: My 1.4 China project!!! - Connor - 13-12-2011

Could do it on the way to ace^^

Re: My 1.4 China project!!! - Foxy-jim - 13-12-2011

Ok mate, ye it would just be the rears. That sounds like a decent price! Thanks!

Re: My 1.4 China project!!! - Grant - 13-12-2011

Re: My 1.4 China project!!! - Kaeten M - 13-12-2011

I've never known someone to seriously mod their 1.4. this should be different...

Re: My 1.4 China project!!! - Matt - 13-12-2011

Re: My 1.4 China project!!! - Dum-Dum - 13-12-2011
