Paint is tasty, only after doing mine! Would love to get in that line of work! I like the carbon its subtle

Just noticed how dark the tail lights are Is that safe?
10-06-2012, 09:33 PM
Yeah as I did them myself I made sure I didn't do them a thick film as you can still see the lights clearly even in the day, I'll get a picture of them tomorrow, it's like there not even tinted when there on they are that clear even asked the MOT'et at Qwik fit and he checked and said there was about 85% light showing so its all good

Liking the progress..................the rear lights are same amount of tint as mine by the looks of it, they work fine, but................kwik fit lie.................you have to have a red rear facing reflector for the MOT technically which you now don't, most "friendly local MOT test station's" will let you off Just a heads up for you!
10-06-2012, 09:47 PM
Cheers mate but as I painted mine will lacquer with a 5% tint of solid black then flatted and polished them you can still see the reflectors

So got my front mount intercooler fitted on Sunday with the help of Ash23 and his pal Ash and my pal Ash lol, not had the time until now to post pictures though!!
Anyway here's a few pictures of the day enjoy.. Bumper off Top mount off New front mount intercooler Lining her up More pictures in next message! Also got a new air filter on her off Ash23, a pipercross one, its much better than the crappy cone one I had Car is currently running 20psi but pulls so much better than how it has ever done, it sounds alot more amazing! and the dump valve sounds so much better.. There is alot of cleaning to do in the engine bay now and general tidying up Going to replace all the black sillicone hoses with a different colour and polish all the metal up Also need to go back to Ash23 one day to do my exhaust, having the mid box cut out and stainless pipe as replace, it already has a decat on and unsure what to do with back box, also while im down there he's maxing the fuel and boost I think even though I am very happy with the power at the minute but it just feels a little dead top end revvs. More fuel the answer? Cheers for looking!.. Louis123 Setting the fan in position Mounted Dump valve back on and relocated Something was in the way I guess.. Cut the grill out and here's how she looks And how the engine bay is at the moment And one last cheeky one Blaze XUD Dturbo Soon To Be Stage 2..

will look sweet when you've gave them pipes a pollish and got some shiny bits
it was a good day doing it but by far the most shitty to fit along with the inlet/ exhaust gasket lol
05-07-2012, 09:13 PM
In regards to your comment about having no power at higher revs, the answer to that is a gov modded Bosch.
06-07-2012, 02:38 PM
Needs yellow silicones off the cooler mate.
06-07-2012, 03:14 PM
Lou....I should have the suspension off gold car somepoint soon, iirc its Pi 40mm Drop if your interested springs and shocks they are quite solid tbh as new car came with coilys. Progress is good, get a bosch on it u will love it then,
Exhaust wise i had a twin straight through exhaust and looking back now ive got full stainless with just backbox its much nicer sound with a box and still get wrasp when turbo under load CJ
08-07-2012, 05:18 PM
How much you looking for them mate? And twin exhaust you had? Ever take a trip down to trafford cruise on a friday night?! Sure ive seen that blaze one down there with twin exhaust before!! Yeah ive got a full stainless at the mo but its got a middle box in think im just guna cut that out and have stainless welded in so would be straight through onto a stainless backbox should sound abit louder hopefully

Ordered new gear linkage rods as this was why the AA had to sort it out the rubber joints was shagged, got the race rally ones which are steel i think so they dont wear out, also got a quickshift kit same as this one
http://www.griffiths-engineering.co.uk/ Anyone got one of these fitted? If so what do you think? Spent all day sunday cleaning/painting/polishing the car up heres a few pictures of my work Fitted my new boost gauge Cleaned up the engine bay and painted slam panel gloss black Painted the little door strip things as they was looking tatty Painted the scuttle panel and wiper arms Sorry got no inside pictures Want to change the silicone pipes under the bonnet for the front mount but struggling to measure up and order off ebay? Any easier way of getting new ones lol? Next couple of things for now: - lower it 40mm or 60mm depending on what springs i buy - refurb alloys and paint them (unsure on colour)? Reccomendations? - change silicone pipes for blue ones - fit quickshift and new race rally gear linkages Gears should hopefully be alot tighter and better with them fitted! Cheers Louis123 Got some more pictures waiting to come on but only aloud 10 pics in now which is GAY! Cleaned up New sticker Fitted and fitted new flat wipers Blaze XUD Dturbo Soon To Be Stage 2..

Latest to do list: - gti 6 rear axel - straight through - hdi rods - oil catch tank - oil cooler - lower it - td04 - bosch fuel pump - clean up engine bay more - mist jet washers Blaze XUD Dturbo Soon To Be Stage 2..

By turning the boost comp down i know reduces smoke but will it imrove mpg like i might turn it down during the week whilst driving 60miles a day to work and ten back up again at weekend, does it make a difference or should i just leave it wound out? And how far out is best?
Blaze XUD Dturbo Soon To Be Stage 2..
12-07-2012, 01:20 PM
I was told all the way in then a 1/4 out... Then you make it up with more max fuel.. Hope that helps
Car looks spotless btw, have you noticed the difference the fmic has made?
20-07-2012, 05:38 PM
every pump is different so just saying a 1/4 turn out and itll do cant be said yes it may have worked for you. but any way only a 1/4 turn out would be complete poo as you want it max just wack the max fuel all the way then adjust the boost comp till your happy with how it goes / smoke / mpg but i still get 45-50mpg outa mine mate so unlees you are planting it every were it i wouldnt worry about it.
Awesome thread mate. I have my self a blaze yellow 306 too! Great colour, but mine has been neclegted as of late.
Just a quick question on spraying. I am rather handy with cans, and I have got my self some spray guns and will be buying the compressor and relevent equipment. I am wondering what type of paint you used? Mica? etc.. preparations and final mixing. I am struggling to find any where that sells blaze at a reasonable price. Cheers!

Are the HDI rods stronger than the stock?What boost will you run on TD04?What's diameter of the exhaust?Can you post some pics of fitting the oil cooler and the catch can?(when you do it) Will you put a HDI gearbox? |
