Birks dturbo project, lows all round - Birk - 16-12-2012

Just picked this up earlier today from wiggy in Rotherham.

I got it for £500, although it sits on harriers, it will soon be sat on my brocks Smile

I thought it was lowered on the rear, but it isn't, so I will have to do that aswell as fit my coilovers and gti6 brakes.

List do to:

Lower rear end
Fit gti6 brakes
Fit my Brock b1's
Fit black masks
Fit fog light blanks
Ph3 rear boot, smoothed
Smooth bonnet
Ph3 rear bumper
Fix various interior problems and knocking noise from front end.

Probs fit a td04 to it aswell Smile

I know the car and all its problems/bodges I'd take a look at the brakes for starters


RE: Birks dturbo project. - Birk - 16-12-2012

Which ones?

What are all the problems? Lol


RE: Birks dturbo project. - Danny2009 - 16-12-2012

Something wrong with the engine. The rear pads are held in with speaker wire plus other problems lol


RE: Birks dturbo project. - Birk - 16-12-2012

Oh dear indeed lol

I actually noticed the rear speaker wires aswell, but thought they could have been sensor wires, then realised they don't have any lol

He said the aux pully etc are a bit fooked on it, cos it sounds like it, but I knew that.

What else? What's up with engine itself?

I suppose I better fix it aye.


RE: Birks dturbo project. - Mattcheese31 - 17-12-2012

wow Birk with a Dturdo project . . .how times change!! . . . .lol

nice one . .Big Grin


RE: Birks dturbo project. - Chris_90 - 17-12-2012

When he was texting me about it the problems were,

Heater only works on number 4
Aux pully/belt
Theres no thermostat in it (this is what put me off big time)
Someing to do with ignation

Think there was some other stuff carnt rember tbh


RE: Birks dturbo project. - Birk - 17-12-2012

So to some it up, I've bought a nail haha

I'm not bothered about all the other stuff just as long as the engine is ok really, but I'm sure Danny will come along and tell me its not ok after the water incident.


RE: Birks dturbo project. - Danny2009 - 17-12-2012

I was going to buy it to strip. It runs fine after the water incident I think, he took the thermostat out because the headgasket was going that's why he was getting rid.

The key sometimes gets stuck in the ignition and can be there hours trying to get it out


RE: Birks dturbo project. - 1616six - 17-12-2012

Thought it was odd he's bought the same car in a worse colour the day after he sells his... makes sense now! Sad

So glad i didnt go for the swap with my car..... as soon as i hurd the thermostat was out i thought there was head gasket issues

Sure birk will make a good car of it tho, just will need loads of work to get it there.


RE: Birks dturbo project. - Danny2009 - 17-12-2012

It's probably worth £500 depending how much it takes to put it right


RE: Birks dturbo project. - Ben - 17-12-2012

Only 100 pound or so for another engine if worst comes to worst!


RE: Birks dturbo project. - Ruan - 17-12-2012

Wasn't that the one with, you know... The milk float?


RE: Birks dturbo project. - Birk - 17-12-2012

I guess I will have to see how the engine goes, I suppose it it does go bang, I'll just stick a new one in.

I put my coilovers on today, aswell as some gti6 brakes, new drop links, black masks, fog light blanks and also my wheels Smile

Should be lowering back end on wednesday.

What we think so far.

Exhaust 2moz, then might give it a quick tune after I've fitted new aux tensioner and engine mount.
