turbomad Posted July 19, 2016 Author Posted July 19, 2016 sweet going to be a nippy 205 thye have great handling  ( gti anyways )    It has a gti set-up already for suspension my previous gti had a 2.1 turbo with 300hp and 311lbft at pretty low boostOnly looking for 200 odd hp should be ample for a fun toy will save my g/f tracking her ep82 Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote

Gainzy Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 Did you dig that engine up out of the ground ? LolLol local wishing well perhaps looks knarly Quote
Calum122 Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 Good little project this. I like the 205's. Also great car collection. Actually my dream setup, GT Turbo And an FD cannot go wrong! Quote
Bean Posted July 19, 2016 Posted July 19, 2016 (edited) a 205 awesome. years ago a mate had a 1.4 xs with a gti rear beam . the head gasket went so he took it to get skimmed and he said to the engineer "just take as much off as possible". and he did, right past the casting marks. anyway he built it back up and fitted an su carb on it from a mini he had and ran it on 97 octane and it was a flying machine. I remember one day we were flying round this back road with 3 of us in and we took this bridge at daft speeds and a corner right after, the back end came out round the bend and i shit my pants! but he kept his foot in and it just went round sideways and kept going hahahaha.

turbomad Posted August 5, 2016 Author Posted August 5, 2016 Not much progress but got the engine in today going to make mounts over the weekend Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote
turbomad Posted August 6, 2016 Author Posted August 6, 2016 Bought a drivers side 4e starlet Mount as the 205 is pretty similar so will get it mounted then do the box once it's fitted The brown on the engine bay is grease as the bay was painted before I put it off the road 6 years ago I will respray it again once the engine is mounted I said it was going to be a slow project but now that I have started I'm finding it hard to not look for bits but I need to focus on the fd so I can enjoy it Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote
turbomad Posted August 11, 2016 Author Posted August 11, 2016 Got my Mount tonight and fitted it also got a gt2871r and bought a t28 collector so should have the manifold made soon Gearbox side will be really easy alsoSent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote
turbomad Posted August 12, 2016 Author Posted August 12, 2016 Yeah sitting under a tree for 6 years hasn't done it any favours I will clean it once the mounts are made as I will get the bay sandblasted then paint it Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote
Pikey009 Posted August 13, 2016 Posted August 13, 2016 I had no idea there was a French version of these with a trick high revving 1.3. I love them both to be honest though Quote
turbomad Posted August 13, 2016 Author Posted August 13, 2016 Yeah the French one was 100hp with twin 40's similar to nova sport The UK was a crap 1.4 with 70 odd hp also the French one had gti suspension Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote
Pikey009 Posted August 13, 2016 Posted August 13, 2016 Yeh the French one had a few tricks up its sleeve I've read up on them now. I do still like the uk one though mate bit like an SR really I guess ha ha. Quote
turbomad Posted August 15, 2016 Author Posted August 15, 2016 Got my t28 collector in today so gonna play about with turbo position over the next few days Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote
5e colin Posted August 15, 2016 Posted August 15, 2016 sweet makes life so much easier making a manni where you buy it do they selll them for tdo4 flange ?? Quote
turbomad Posted August 15, 2016 Author Posted August 15, 2016 Ebay just searched manifold collector wasn't cheap though but still gonna be cheaper than making a standard placement work Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote
Starlet__SR Posted August 15, 2016 Posted August 15, 2016 This is gonna be an interesting build, whats made you go down the 4E route? Quote
turbomad Posted August 15, 2016 Author Posted August 15, 2016 Bits laying around tbh my g/f has the gt in the first pics so had a spare box from her first gt plus the 4e is similar in size to a 8v tu engine plus it's totally different Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote
5e colin Posted August 16, 2016 Posted August 16, 2016 This is gonna be an interesting build, whats made you go down the 4E route? best 1.3 engine ever Quote
