It's a Peter T regrinding inlet cam. Lol we have 10 on order with him. You basically gain a extra bhp but you get more duration and a little extra torque. I WANT IT NOW!!!!!!!! Haha

[Blandy]

So after driving to bluewater to drop my sister off I noticed that I didn't do the best job on the tracking so I decided to get it done

Overall it doesn't look to bad only thing is the rear end seems I may have put the beam on a tad squiff

[Matt]

For pic heavy. It's not very pic heavy!!


IT NEEDS MOAR PICTORZZZZ

[hovis16]

hyper finally after waiting for what seem forever my Peter T cam has turned up. Getting them from customs was a nightmare. So next job is to pull the engine back out and fit the beauty plus a new belt and auto tension pulley because mines making a bit of a racket.
Also today some shiney bits turned up :-)


Some nice carbon wing mirror covers. I also have two A4 carbon sheets to cover the holes in the boot just behind the arches to smarten it up.
Soon as it warm............ Ish I will get on the case

They maybe but I don't support those ©unts anymore after doing meout of 120quid. I got these from the same guy you got your bonnet from. :-)

[Dicky]

Awesome read, so much love for this!

Also this is what a REAL dogbox looks like..

[hovis16]

Well I'm a happy bunny because my cams and other bits have finally turned up:-) :-)


Also my new cam seals,cam belt,oil and coolant have turned up.
All i've got to do now is use my templates and cut the carbon to fit :-)

Well its been a dead morning at work so I might as well cut the templates out

[hovis16]

So ive some how managed to get hold of a exhaust cam now so looks like i will have a screamer going on lol.So today i decided to fit my carbon bits

[306GT30]

Looking good!!!!!!!!!!

thx for the template, i recieved it and now after seeing your pics i know where to put them , lol!!!!!!!

[hovis16]

So its time to fit these

Also I have a new headunit.

Car week begins......
First up I binned my old headunit and replaced it with a new one. Removed airbag ecu, cut my lower glove box so i can open it and tightened up the dash. Tried fitting a tinted sunstrip but gave up because it kept bubbling up.......so I binned it

---

An eventful day i'll had. First the car decided not to start in the morning at first I thought it may be the battery but it wasn't it was something to do with my fuel pump and relay. Changed this and it was fine.
Next I started taking the front end apart

While I was at it i cleaned all the road grime and oil off the front of the engine and salt off the engine bay.
I noticed that I had a slight leak on the driver side brake hose. Seeing as it had soaked in the paint and started to lift I took a gander and their was a bit of surface rust so..........I attacked it

Tomorrow I will do some painting and sort my zorst out.

Nice!! Love this car... Nice to see it being looked after!

[hovis16]

So thanks to the s**t weather things have been slow but on the plus side the engine bays nice and clean


Also the cams are finally sorted.

I have to say to everyone that guesstimates when they advance their cams they are VERY VERY BRAVE doing it without a dti tool. Mental how easy it is f**k these engines.Smart bit of kit
Have to give paul13 and Antoney off the 205gti forum a massive thank you for helping me out witj the engine. Now to finish the rest of the car :-)

[Piggy]

bloody awesome mate

[306GT30]

Yeah!!!!

[hovis16]

Cars almost back on the road.
Thanks to a lovely forum member a box of chocy turned up with these

Another bit of carbon to fit :-)

[sam]

[Scott]

Soon as i get it on a rolling road i'll let you know.
The cams are standard regrinds by peter t in aus. Basiclly i have more lift a duration so I should gain some bhp main thing will be the gain in torque and the screaming lol it has also been advanced 0.95mm to tdc so 1mm when the belts bed in.

I heard your engine mount cracked? Looks like the person who welded it up did a really awesome job!
