Bought myself a new battery for her yesterday. A Bosch S4 Cold start battery after the cold killed the crappy Halfrauds one that was on there. Managed to get £20 off bringing the price down to £63 (roughly) from Euros! Now she starts absolutely fine now. ________________________________________ Richies Project RallyeElectrical work carried out in Portsmouth jamiek_uk2000 wrote: - Top Tip!!!

So, went to a modified meet yesterday evening with Jo3 HDi and his Clio  Got a good chance to take some photos of the Rallye on the road! We'll start with the photo of her in front of which i can only describe as the french theme here lol!    I'll put the rest in show and shine i think ________________________________________ Richies Project RallyeElectrical work carried out in Portsmouth jamiek_uk2000 wrote: - Top Tip!!!

So, been a busy weekend what with changing a Gearbox on a Rover and also paying Colin at Pug performance a visit; All whilst having my son for the Easter Weekend. I had only intended to go up to PP to gain a second opinion on what to do about my engine mount, but ended up buying some goodies (as you do ) Got myself a Magnex Exhaust and a new Slam panel for a tidy sum! I fitted it whilst i was there and she sounds brilliant now, thankfully not too loud but enough to give a nice grunt when putting the power down. I will be fitting the new Slam panel when it has been cleaned up and painted i think. No pictures for this one i'm sorry. I also made a visit to Brighton for a meet which turned out to be a bit crap, smiles all round however when i took the car for a blast through the A27 tunnel, and a massive grin when this photo was taken:  Makes me feel mighty proud owning a Rallye! ________________________________________ Richies Project RallyeElectrical work carried out in Portsmouth jamiek_uk2000 wrote: - Top Tip!!!

Got some more updates for her, been working on the front Peugeot badge again, need something to break up all that black in the dark.

Right, I thought i'd paint my badge as i needed to break up the black bodywork at the front. And here it is!!  I know it doesn't look it, but it is actually Red. ________________________________________ Richies Project RallyeElectrical work carried out in Portsmouth jamiek_uk2000 wrote: - Top Tip!!!

Had some spare time on Sunday and the weather was good  So i got on with a couple of bits: Changed over the old discs and pads to Brembos and painted the calliper:   Also removed the scuttle to find 2 - 3 inches of dirt and leaves behind there Before:  After:  Whilst all this was going on, my good friend Ash was vigorously cleaning the interior to well.... i could say showroom condition, It looks Awesome!!   We then started on the outside and lavishly bathed her in soap with a good polish after:      Since then i have toyed around with the idea of a standard air box and K & N filter as this Powerflow is too big and restricting the airflow to the car  ________________________________________ Richies Project RallyeElectrical work carried out in Portsmouth jamiek_uk2000 wrote: - Top Tip!!!

Cheers guys I kinda like it but at the same time i am still torn between the Red and black lol. I have got an update for you though, i paid DaveyBoy a visit today in Southampton; intended to just get a quote for some welding from him but he helped me out by fitting a temporary plate in behind the buffers to stop so much engine movement. It also turns out i now have a crack in the mount base which also needs sorting. So i now need to save up over the next several weeks - months.  The new plate sitting in behind the buffer:  ________________________________________ Richies Project RallyeElectrical work carried out in Portsmouth jamiek_uk2000 wrote: - Top Tip!!!

So... A slight set back this morning on the way to Samass in greater London. 10 minutes into my journey and on the motorway my 6th gear s**ts itself!!! That explains the shriek from the engine when I drove off this morning!! Hopefully Matts gearbox from his Rallye is going spare so I can drop that in, might be able to also sort out my overly heavy clutch in the process. Thankfully I made it the full 68 miles in 5th gear smashing my fuel economy.. Watch this space! ________________________________________ Richies Project RallyeElectrical work carried out in Portsmouth jamiek_uk2000 wrote: - Top Tip!!! You'll need to throw money at the car.

Yeah, thankfully.. Although the 4th gear is easily pushed out without using the clutch haha. Definitely going to have to replace the box very soon! ________________________________________ Richies Project RallyeElectrical work carried out in Portsmouth jamiek_uk2000 wrote: - Top Tip!!!
