Hi lads. New to the forum. 20 year old Motorsport engineering student from N.I. Usually a jap car guy, I break MX5's and build up mx5 track cars. One finished standardish track car, another one being built up similar spec and my baby. Wide arched, no windscreen 1.8 vvt on a set of bike carbs with custom wired megajolt e,cu!
I did a bit of preparation on a 1.9 gti track car several years ago, that and their rally heritage always drew me to 205's. Been dying to get my hands on one as a daily. Then discovered the mountain of modification that is available to the xud9 engine etc and couldn't resist the possibility of a derv missile in 205 form.
Found this 1.8na diesel, already fitted with gti valences front and rear aswell as gti speedlines. It was at fairly handy money to a broke student so I couldn't resist. All my builds are done with minimal money and from parts that nobody else wants! So you'll have to bare with a poor student as this build hopefully progresses.
Plans thus far are to actually get the car through and mot as it has been lying for over a year, a wee granda motor though and *touch wood* seems to be running very nicely. After the not fun bit, plans include the addition of gti interior and exterior parts, lowering, gti front crossmember and wishbone set-up, and a possibly forged custom built xud9te with lots of scary shiny things. (budget permitting)
