Project number one

[Will]

So I picked up a 306 HDi DTurbo in moonstone blue (really does look good) with 88,000 miles, 00 reg and the only modification (at present!) is a flushed bonnet and grille. To start the project I cleaned up the body and began the cleaning of the interior. Gradually going to update as it slowly transforms

[Orta]

Pic aren't working buddy ;-)

[Will]

I think they work now

[mcvite]

Looks very nice mate,enjoy

[Dum-Dum]

Looks alright that.

If you put [img] before the photo link and [/img] afterwards then they'll appear without people having to click on them.

[Will]

Plans:
Lower, probably 40mm and the back 2 nicks( it seems easier)
Decat
Mechanical boost controller and boost gauge
fmic and slim fans
Stage 2 map
New clutch(sacks I'm thinking)
Lightweight 16" alloys (have eyes on wedssports tc005 not sure how they'll look)
Pick up DTurbo mats

I tried that a few times but it wouldn't show the images, I'll give it a go again

[Daniel306]

There is a button at the top of the reply window, click it then just paste the link in the box

[Will]

maybe the files are too big? I tried both ways but neither seemed to work

[Daniel306]

Ah, i normally upload them to photo bucket first

[Toms306]

It's not hard. Also, not sure I'd use my full name on a PB account but that's up to you. I think you copied the wrong link though lol.

[Will]

Thanks! Every time I tried it wouldn't work, that's pretty embarrassing Name doesn't bother me much, between fb and any other social network but you're right, prob smarter not to.

[Will]

Driving in the rain wondering why my wiper wasn't moving, got out to find this


due to be replaced although it doesn't look bad without the wiper! if I tidied it up properly

---

Quick clean up of the seats and door cards and it was looking sharper, hoping to get some mats soon




engine bay could do with some more cleaning

[impotentials]

Whats the classic in the background, that looks awesome. Good luck with the build, not sure about the upgraded aerials. Lol'ish

[Piggy]

upgraded aerials?
...nevermind I think I got it

[MisterGTR]

I want to hear more about the Citreon DS. My all time favourite car that we owned as a family. Would love to get one of those one day! Need to get a place with a heated garage for it to live first!

[maxlee]

defo need to put up some DS pics

[Will]

Tied up with endless other jobs at the moment, got time to remove the spring from the clutch pedal today


can someone tell me what the switch is for beside the clutch pedal? just curious

[Adam-m-h]

I believe it sends a signal to the ECU that the clutch has been activated and fueling is reduced.
I may be wrong tho.

[Midnightclub]

It's so that the revs don't drop to idle between gear changes, you'll notice they 'hang'

[Will]

Ahh, I'm also told it's an old citroen trick, I did notice alright but didn't put two and two together

[Will]

College has me very busy and the 306 is off the road until I can get it registered here, 2.0 HDi 110 Xsara to keep me moving for the momentt. In the mean time I picked up a set of a c5 "steelies", I'm loving how light they are. They need a good clean up though. Well worth the €40 I paid for them.

Steal they mate,just don't hit a curb they as soft as cheese

[HDi--Power]

I think an Irish members meet up is on the card for the summer get the 306 registered and come along

They will be getting the best of care! Thinking of painting them 4q9 bronze to go with the moonstone body.

[Eeyore]

That looks great. Is the citroen in the background yours?

[Poodle]

No, it's his Dad's.

Want to see those wheels on in bronze, sounds ideal.

Nothing but French cars at home, the DS is a fantastic drive, a real headturner

The bronze and moonstone blue should make for a nice combo, once I get these exams done they'll be getting a full refurb.
