Been floating around the forum for a while now mainly looking at the project threads with a view to start a build thread of my own. After been in Eddy_gti6's 306 track car around knockhill it was awesome and I knew I had to get something to challenge him with, so I’ve spent a while looking for a good starting point and planning what I wanted to do to it, I eventually came to the conclusion that what I wanted was going to cost a bomb! So, is started looking for a one with a lot of the work already done, it's took a while BUT I’VE FOUND IT!!!
It's a 205 gti with a gti-6 engine!
Oh, and it's in the coolest colour ever!
Here's the full spec and pic's (stolen from ebay)
Engine:
306 gti 6 engine
6 speed box
Re angled manifold (engine at correct angle)
Solid mounts
Quick shift modified linkage with mi16 stick and reverse cable
Larger 309 gti radiator lowered to allow room for inlet
Twin cooling fans on a switch
Uprated cams ( according to engines last owner) so sold as standard due to no proof
unlocked gti6 ECU
Bespoke alternator setup - no AC
Pulls very well right upto limiter and the ratios of the 6 box really suit track driving.
Spiky (off the 205 drivers forum) engine loom
Re angled down pipe and full magnex exhaust system
Drivetrain:
Bilstien shocks and springs
Polybushed 309 gti wishbones and 309 gti driveshafts (only 2 years old)
205 gti 1.9 hubs with
Drilled grooved 206 gti180 discs and calipers
Drilled rear discs with new pads
BRAIDED HOSES ALL ROUND
New brake pipe and brake bias mounted by handbrake
Beam fully rebuilt 2 years ago
Solid alloy rear mounts
Poly bushed
New drop links
309 gti ARB
1.9 wheels with Toyo Proxis T1R's (seen one trackday so at least one left in them)
Body:
Steel grey 1.9 gti shell - rust free and still in pretty good condition
Aluminium plated sunroof
10 point OMP roll cage with extra harness bar
Single bucket and 4 point harness (out of a jap drift car)
Gti passenger seat and 3 point harness (not currently fitted)
I'm looking forward to getting it and can't wait to do some trackdays in it, i'll bring it along to some meets too and meet some of you lot, but the only problem i've got now is it's got no MOT and I need to get it from the west midlands to Durham!
Any one with a trailer want some work?
Thanks,
Jakey
