Yeah I'm up for that

[Pugmarshall]

Pugmarshall and I know a place that does dyno runs that could be incorporated into the midlands meet (separate thread) but I already went on the rollers earlier in the year. Still I'd turn up wherever just for the meet up.

I'm up for that shiz, put a thread in the mids section?

Let me know when you get in on a dyno, could bring mine along too

+1

Was going to see if you were interested, glad you are!

just awsome i realy want one.

[Pugmarshall]

Haha that tractor's epic!

[ozonehostile]

took the Dtub to work today, couple of small issues. powersteering pump is leaking slightly , theres a boost leak on the top hose and the badge fell off

[ozonehostile]

Had alot of fun driving around today, i also attempted a video but it turned out terrible, will try again asap haha

[Tom]

Awh i want a truck turbo

[ozonehostile]

Right then, an actual update:
after a quick trip upto birmingham I am now the owner of a set of 4 pot brembo calipers and tor-ox discs. massive thanks to Dum-Dum for driving up to meet me, your a diamond mate


Oh and earlier today when i was investigating the leaking power steering pump i discovered a big split in hose coming off the inlet side of the intercooler, holes big enough to get a finger through so must be loosing a fair bit of boost but the amazing thing is even with the huge boost leak from there and the top hose it still does 0-60mph in sub 6 seconds. be interesting to see how different it is running full boost

I now understand why you would not feel rushed to fix your boost leaks haha!

Im having all the leaking boost pipes re-made in 3 inch stainless steel tubing. just waiting for the welder man to get it done. anyone know of a massive open space where i can test it running at full boost? im a little bit nervous about trying it on a public road haha

Yeah i heard that too, in fact it must be the missing badge and not the massive boost leak thats causing the power loss!!!

And then I fixed the rear door locks, words cannot describe my hatred for peugeot with this design as im sure anyone who has refitted the plastic bit onto the pin will agree

[Tom]

I dont have any of those plastic things in, they suck ass!

[ozonehostile]

im waiting until payday to buy some bucket seats and harnesses then all the interiors coming out. no more door cards and the problems they cause. also need some bonnet pins as theres no safety catch anymore :/

[londondan86]

Just read through this project mate andthe car looks awsome! Top work. Now just get a bigger pump on that beasty and get more fuel in there!

[Dum-Dum]

I had terrible problems with those door lock pins on my old ph1 until I found out that you have to re-fit them with the mechanism and rod in the locked position - piece of cake then

[Pugmarshall]

This needs ph1 twin optics on it

Tried shobdon airfield? Lol

[ozonehostile]

Gave the car a proper wash and a polish today:

Took it down the road and 5 seconds later this happened:

So if anyone has a phase 1 bonnet, or knows of a fibreglass phase 1 bonnet, please let me know asap

[Tom]
