[car_upgrade] My 205 8vt Project

[Jamal 2]

Because the Xsara rear hubs widen the rear I had to say goodbye to my Gutmann alloys and bought these(306 Laser/405 LeMans wheels):

 

Finally I rewired the whole headlight cables using relays. Now I'm able to drive and see at night

[Jamal 2]

Also i bulit my sanding box to clear my new gearbox housing for the longer gears. Built a hibrid using Mi16 gears and 1.9GTi final drive.

The plan for the near future is to build in the ABS and the rain sensitive wipers from a 306.

 

Wiring the battery to the boot and because the A/C gone I thinking about the OE sunroof

A little fuse for the battery

Hi there!

 

I have got some new pics about the suspension project.

 

Also changed the rad and the fans for newer, faster, stronger ones

[Jamal 2]

The widening of the rear with the Xsara hubs made a huge improvement on handling. I was able to test it on an airfield playing a little slalom with other friends from Peugeot 205 Klub Hungary.

 

Bit busy now because started a new project, will open a thread for it soon

It's 11" if I'm right.

Last weekend I measured the car on a dyno.

 

Here is the result:

 

It is a full stock system. Only the wg actuator rod is modified from 0,36 to approx. 0,40 bar.

The overboost is 1 bar, the standard boost is 0,65-0,7 bar.

brilliant stuff mate,, top job

Here is the boost gauge

 

Maybe I mentioned, but I don't have pin 3 on the injection double relay. And it's original. In every wiring diagrams I see that from pin 3 a wire goes to the ECU pin 27. Is this wire really needed or it's okay, because it's original?

I really like what u have done here mate. What car are these clocks out of mate?

 

Thanks Conor.

It's a std 205 GTi dash and a boost meter. I stripped the gauge and built it into the dash house. The rev PCB went to the back of the dash house to gain enough space.

[Jamal 2]

Hi Guys,

 

Well i think I was away for a little time...

But i have really good excuses:

1. Haven't got time to write, because:

a. Lot of work

b. Lot of work on the flat where I moved with my fiancée

c. Lot of time spent with my little son

2. I haven't got time to repair the car because "see above"

 

But now the car is finally "re-silled" and repainted, also got some minor modifications that i will introduce soon

The other car i mentioned some days ago are going away from us because the changed marital status, but i will post some pics and infos, because it is also a beautiful 205.

 

Cheers,

Szilárd

Hi,

 

Well there are some changes

Now it does 155,2 HP and 288,7 Nm.

 

Well, I definetly need a DKZ cam

 

Also changed the lover silent block, because the drivetrain had a strange noise like my driveshafts are on the way to die. But they only done 20.000 kms so I investigated the problem. The silent was dead. I changed and rotated about 90 degrees to be stiffer.
