Sigma 96 phase 1 306 gti 6

[SKoob]

Got back from a week away in sunny Yorkshire (it actually was for most of it surprisingly) on Friday so got cracking. First job was to replace the exhaust with a standard 1 I picked up from JP



No more blowy exhaust and its so much quieter can hear the lovely induction noise now. Next I due wipered the rear, fitted xsara mist jets and normal wiper blades





That was Friday done as some of the parts hadn't turned up and it started getting dark. So Saturday got up early and started swapping the polybushed items swapped from the d turbo. First I tackled the rear beam mounts which are nearly new and have the tensioning kit fitted, first pic is the underside of the d turbo btw.







Then fitted the bump stops



Then went to get some new tyres on the clones so I could refit them, whilst at the tyre place I decided to have a good look at the brakes, suspension etc.. at the front. Discovered this lovely surprise





wtf how can someone do that to a brake pipe, that's proper dangerous and it was nearly split. Got tyres fitted got home and made a start on the front wishbones and swapping brake pipes to braided from my d turbo. Here's how she looked on 4 clones before I got cracking







got drivers side wishbone done along with new lemforder bottom ball joints and updated polybush



Took a fair while to get the brake pipe done as the steel lines union rounded off even when cleaned up and with a proper stout brake pipe spanner, had to resort to mole grips and may get a pipe made depending on if it leaks. Called it day after that and went for a few beers and all you can eat Chinese

Today's jobs are finish swapping brake pipes, passenger wishbone, replace rad, fan switch and thermostat.
