How much BHP does Monkey add?


LOL monkey has now lost his Christmas jumper (saving weight) and he's keeping the gauge company in the other hole. Looks quality.

When they are finished are you going to start living you're life a quarter mile at a time?

What other over night parts from Japan do you have coming?

Nice to have the website back up and running.
Few little updates while it was down, including an absolute nightmare track rod end change that last a week Shock Suppose it's all part of the learning curve with these vehicles.

After seeing cwspellowe's blue carpet from a s16 in his phase 1 I had to have some of that in my life so I tracked one down.
All went well except the fuel filler lever is in a slightly different place so I needed to add a small piece if carpet to cover that hole up and the sound deadening is attached to the blue carpet where a phase 3 is actached to the floor in the car.
Some pictures






Next up was to fit a set of Avo GTX rear dampers as mine were getting very bouncy and were an advisory in my MOT last year.
I bought these from Hovis and all they needed was a set of lower bushes, while I did these I gave them a lick of paint just so they didn't look too used when put on my car
How they turned up.

After new bushes, sprayed and stickers

Old ones in question


Lastly I changed my track rod ends, I wasn't going to put this in but it was such a mission that I thought this may help somebody out in the future.
Drivers side was nice and easy. Wheel off rod end out and all that. Passenger side was a b*tch, for starters I couldn't get the bolt out that attaches it to the hub so I cut it off.

Next was to get the rod end out of the rod, impossible to say the least. After 2 days of struggling with two of my mates who are qualified mechanics it was not going to budge in a hurry. Which was strange as the tracking was done no more than 8 months ago.
In the end I gave up and thought why not change the whole rod. When that finally turned up I came across another problem, which was the silly boot that even my qualified Peugeot mechanic didn't know how it came off. Eventually I found out how it stayed on the ram but was too late to save the boot.

They push on if anybody's interested, they have a metal ring in the rubber to keep it from coming off. All it needs is a screw driver tapped in the end of it and prise it off.
Track rod and end replaced with a nice new boot


The misery was over, or so I thought! The following day saw me drive around to three garages to try and get the tracking sorted. Shit-fit are honestly the worst company in the world, I kind of already knew this as I have to use them for my work van tyres. Anyway I rang them to book my car in, 5o clock that's fine we'll definatly fit you in.
When I arrive they were too busy apparently to do it today try another branch, which I did to sit around for nearly an hour for them to turn around and say just as I'm driving it onto a ramp that my cars lowered so there machine won't work with lowered cars Dunno by the tine I left there and got to a independent garage they were closing in 20minutes and didn't want to take on a new job so close to closing. Not good as I'm meant to be driving to Bournemouth the following morning.
I finally found a place the following morning and they did it no problems. So a day job turned into a week of the car jack up and with the extra tools and parts such as heat and mole grips I had to buy it set me back easily another £80 Sad FML!!!

On a slightly lighter note this is how many boxes of b*tch pop you can fit in a 306's boot...



You stay classy Thumbs up

A lot nicer than my old ones. Just trying to get the damper setting right. I didn't spray the top bits though.

Put the grille and hockey sticks back in too whilst you're at it so it looks less like it's been in a front ender.

The trims turned up big thumbs up to Chris!





Also finished the spoiler. Not sure if it's the halfords clear coat I used but it looks crap. Not quite sure what went wrong but I am going to redo it.

Pictures anyway of my mess. Any advice welcome, as quite disappointed with the outcome. And I'm pretty sure I didn't do anything wrong.



I want the dirty grey plastic one back LOL
