Well I'm over on 106oc but it's a little dead so I've come over here and thought I'd put a progress blog on here too.
I bought the car in October 2011. The car has a TU5JP4S engine with CatCam 705 cams.
Here are some pics of the car from the ad

So I went and picked her up 2 weeks after viewing and got it home. It had put a smile on my face especially as I was only used to a 1.1. Lol
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/IMG00043-20111015-1128.jpg

The exhaust had been off the old car for a week and had a good polish. On the way home the Pugsport just wasn't doing it for me :n:
But at home was waiting something much better
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/IMG00026-20111008-2053.jpg

An OMP Inox :y:

So on it went. Sounds good. I love it and so do a lot of others. Haha
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/IMG00044-20111015-1424.jpg

A few weeks later we held a 106oc SE meet down at the graffiti tunnel in London where we got some good pictures

A few other bits I changed on the car. Resprayed wiper arms, aero blades and Xsara washer jets to tidy it up a little
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/IMG00266-20111116-1315.jpg

Some SMD sidelights
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/IMG00265-20111116-1314.jpg

A HID kit that is now broke and another is on order, should be here in the next couple of days.

Somewhere after that I took the car on it's first track session at Lyden Hill.
Was good fun and kept a Golf R32 in my rear mirror. Wasn't happy with the oil temp so eased off a bit and just had some fun. Only got the one pic.
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/9fc1df6f.jpg

After getting a few running problems, it was time for a catch tank!
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/IMG00291-20111120-1343.jpg

http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/IMG00292-20111120-1343.jpg

So it got a clean up and somewhere a catch tank follows. Lol
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/IMG00295-20111121-1441.jpg

http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/IMG00298-20111121-1700.jpg

Also a little linkage bit broke on the gearbox. Nothing major and was an easy fix
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/IMG00299-20111122-1439.jpg

Somewhere after that the throttle cable snapped -_-
Then gearbox number one went (I'm on my 4th now) Lol
I gave this one to my mate to do as I couldn't be bothered to do it in the cold. So off it went with it's 1.1 gearbox and new clutch to be put on.

A few months later gearbox number 2 went. A fella in a BMW wanted to have a play, so I entertained it and as I was leaving him BANG! Covered his car in oil.
So I got the car home and a few days later another gearbox came out the garage, another 1.1. I got them swapped over and done a few other little bits.
The damage

It had some Morrettes on it at one point and I painted a bonnet badge

http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/1ddc56cc.jpg

And the Morrettes (bit broke)

Then after all that I sold them, then bought some more about a month later. Lol

Also at the same time as getting the Morrettes I got a steering wheel and boss

On a spare day I had I cleaned all the arches up

http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/3110dde5.jpg

Then ANOTHER gearbox went. So I picked up a GTi one this time.
Called my mate up to come give me a hand. By now we get them done pretty quick between us. Lol
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/71c3363e.jpg

All the gearboxes together. I built up a little collection
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/cfd9c18f.jpg

I picked up a catch tank at this point too so we put that on to. The hose needs to be changed over but that will happen all in good time
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/3e0e7762.jpg

http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/9b18d782.jpg

A pipe on the steering rack went so the engine got dragged out and swapped the pipe that had burst

After a year of being used properly I brought her back to life with a good service
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/A3864E88-61CB-47E5-89C8-072FB5A7114F-1579-000000E63E78459B.jpg

Flushed the engine, drained it. Changed with crappy Halfords oil and filter, flushed it again and drained it. Change the oil and filter to Castrol Magnatec. New plugs, done the coolant ETC

Certainly worked!

Pic of the cams too
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/18F601B6-9B5A-48F7-8F8C-51C5DCB96B46-1579-000000E674A6CD79.jpg

And it's time for a new manifold
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/B1D9E872-B8F1-4E8E-95FB-FCAD6EDCD0C7-1579-000000E68F9DEC00.jpg

And new tyres
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/12FCF8E2-644B-4509-BF32-9F4B61055FDA-1579-000000E694732A3D.jpg

Also picked up a fan to do a twin fan conversion and throttle body
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/037FC03E-FEAD-4F81-8EE0-BDBCD7F29E08-6231-00000617EDCF62C5.jpg

As an idea of the power the car is producing, my mate has an S2 1.6 8v Rallye on ITB's and was dyno'd at 150.4bhp. This will stick side by side with him. The car will hopefully be dyno'd in the new year.

What's it going into?
No the car has not been mapped yet. I'm getting a new mani, air filter and the next update, get them fitted first then I should hopefully be getting it up to Wayne at Chipwizards sometime next year. But I need some work first :p

PM me about your engine

Get those morettes back on though man - she looked feckin' schweeet and I don't care if it's too cold to paint them... spray them inside if needs be :p

Haha cheers. What you mean by 'and that's saying something'? Lol

You took the engine out to just replace that pipe?

Yes. Well I took the engine out to take the steering rack out and change the pipe. The pipe bolts on sort of behind the rack. Also changed the clutch release bearing and cleaning the engine and bay was cut short by bad weather and being needed for work. Lol

Rallye vents don't fit in with what I want any more I don't think. Should have sold them to me before! Lol
Yes Morrettes will go back on soon as I can be bothered to sort them and the HID's will fit.
I've just sorted my room out, I'm not spraying in it.

Hmm what else were you thinking? Definitely think you should put both lenses in the offside morette personally - for some reason I think it looks a bit odd and like its missing something otherwise if that makes sense - probably not knowing me :p

And fair play really - I spray stuff in the spare bedroom with all the odds and sods so don't really care if I get paint over whatever's in there :)

Both rooms have just been decorated. Would do it in the loft but that's just as cold. Might plug a heater up there and see how much it warms up :/ not that I can really be bothered at the moment.

I had both centre lamps out not just the one and an oil coolers going in so a Rallye bent won't fit in

Haha thanks. I like the Cyclones though. Wish I could get the wheels I want but that's another story.

That was 4 Gearbox's in under a year! 1st was a GTi box which I blew the diff in, 2nd was a 1.1 box. That lasted 3 months. Lol 3rd was a 1.1 box and the 4th is on the car now but it doesn't sound to healthy. I plan for that one to blow up in Feb when I hopefully get in on a track ready for the 5th one to go in.

I've had the car since October 2011 and I'm sure it will need many more gearboxes :wall:

A few updates.
I got some Quiky door cards to replace the fibre glass ones I have as I've gone off them. So will get them on as and when.
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/905C263A-28A7-4D0C-90EE-6564BE42D1EA-179-0000000A2A6D4846_zpsc355fae7.jpg

Should be putting them on Saturday.
Also going on on Saturday are the full set of T1R's. They are going on the Cyclones and I have bought 2 semi slicks for pod. Got them for £30 so bargain. They are going on XSi wheels.
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/7049C7FA-47EC-40DC-AAB0-DB437382F2B8-179-0000000A33B60D2E_zpse86ce62c.jpg

Sold my spare GTi box last night and getting a 1.1 box again tomorrow as hopefully it may start warming up a bit and I can start shredding boxes again ;) haha

Also got a tow strap just in case I do throw the car into gravel and get stuck on track. Lol
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/67E43A6D-9B65-4E01-A682-A4968913B966-738-0000004C485BC790_zpsab47c0d2.jpg

Please tell me that's orange squash in that bottle in the first picture mate :p

Hmm I thought the yellow tow strap would be a kick in the mouth against the red of the car but I was wrong... looks good!

Glad you got the Quiksilver door cards in as well - as much as I liked the stripped out out look, at least you'll keep your dirty mitts off my door cards now ;) haha

Oh and one word: Morettes :hug: haha

Heh I love how I get informed of my duties over forums mate ;) lol. How bad are the insides of the alloys? They might need going with IronX and claybar. Effort! :panic: haha.

I've had it off the clock on a 1.1 box on an unused runway :wink:

They usually clean up pretty well Griff but I know how much you love cleaning. Only thinking of you mate :wink:

Yesterday I took it to Lydden Hill. It was a good day.
On my first session there was an Audi R8 but luckily for my it's a small track so it looked good when I was on his bumper through the corners ;) lol
Here's one going through the first corner after his advantage of the straight

This is one where I had just over taken boost :)

Leaving the Scooby :/ I wish! That thing was rapid. Made mine look like a 1.1

And a couple back at the paddock

Really need to get the oil cooler back on but the car held up rather well. I'm happy with it. Need some 266's though and a matching set of track tyres as I had MaxSport RB5's on the front and Kumho KU31's on the rear. Handled better than I thought it would :)

BenPUG106
11th March 2013, 19:28
So a little follow up. Here's a video my car is in at Lydden Hill not far off the R8 lap after lap. Can hear mine over a lot of the other cars and banging away too. Lol
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GiFanLd7x7A

Also a few other little bits.
I done the gearbox mod to try take away some play in the 1.1 box when it goes on.
The pin didn't take much persuading to come out
This is the bit I'm on about
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/F7B7F039-33D0-4612-A521-9D94852CDADC-883-0000003CDA65144B_zps1b3f5ab8.jpg

2 hits with the hammer and it fell out

So after a clean up I drilled it out to 8mm

And stuck an 8mm bolt through it

Taken away loads of play so will get to see what it's like soon.
Also picked up these
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/505FA1A7-8D46-4E04-B0A5-69604A1F0C96-3069-0000029408D8B3E4_zpsaa72154a.jpg

They had stone chips in them so they are being repainted along with the Morrettes. FINALLY!

That's all for now :)

Been a while since I updated this. Lol
The clutch came and still isn't on. Waiting for the gearbox to go first

The car got a service at Santa Pod
http://i788.photobucket.com/albums/yy165/RIPZER47/559DBD7B-134C-4D82-8CAD-7EC1F90571A2-463-0000001FF1FDEB71_zps6266e072.jpg (http://s788.photobucket.com/user/RIPZER47/media/559DBD7B-134C-4D82-8CAD-7EC1F90571A2-463-0000001FF1FDEB71_zps6266e072.jpg.html)

A couple of days after I hit a fox at about 60 which buggered the front. So stripped it down and gave it a good clean as there was loads of mud from pod.

Damaged the bumper, pas head light, bonnet and slam panel a bit. So the car now looks like this.

I'm hopefully getting a Cherry bonnet and slam panel this weekend :)

As the weather was nice this weekend I changed the wishbones that I had new ball joints put in and got some shiney new pinch bolts.

Then went and picked up a new mani as mine was a little buggered.
Got a Raceland at a good price. It feels much better.

Also got a battery case for when I put the battery in the back to free some space up in the engine bay.
Gave that a clean up and cleaned an ECU tray and for some reason the spare battery tray :/ Lol
SORRY MUM :)

Got a few more bits painted. The Rallye vents are done. Don't have a picture of them though at the moment.
done the ECU tray. Tidied it up a bit, didn't spend ages on it but looks better than what is in there now.

And also gave the gearbox a quick paint with left over paint from the Morrettes, vents ETC
Originally I was going to do it silver and black but the silver paint has gone so I just done it completely black. Lol

Silk
29th April 2013, 10:50

BenPUG106
29th April 2013, 10:59
Thanks :)
Yeah defo spray it. It's easier too lol
I've finally got a Cherry bonnet aswell but I'll put that on after Lydden as don't want it getting stone chips all over it that it don't need. Lol. Plus the bonnet badge isn't done

Silk
29th April 2013, 11:02

If you have massive moobs then yeah you should. You may need support ;)
It would probably be a good idea. My windscreen has loads of surface chips on it now and 2 chips. One I repaired, the other I've been too lazy to do. Lol

No doubt I'll have more after Monday so will do them all the weekend after

Does it not bore you having to change a gearbox every 2 months? Sounds like you need a BE conversion haha

Does it not bore you having to change a gearbox every 2 months? Sounds like you need a BE conversion haha

Only takes hour and half 2 hours to do. Lol. For the price I get gearboxes for it's not worth paying for the conversion kit for a BE box. I have thought about it though lol

Thanks mate :)
I haven't had a 1.1 box last more than 2 months. We'll see how it goes when I put another back on. Lol

the 1.1 box is probably lasting longer on my car as it ain't cammed, since yours is then it probably too much for the 1.1 box lol

out of curiosity did you install the cams your self?

BenPUG106

I think I'm unlucky with gearbox's that I get. Although this ones lasted ok just makes horrible noises. Definitely going to go soon.

I bought the car with the cams in but have done it before. It's pretty simple and so is converting the engine to fit.

I have resealed the cam ladders on it too

martin1985
2nd May 2013, 15:59
i see, just if i manage to get some uprated cams i would be getting someone else to do the work lol, there is a garage i goto a lot know them pretty well was thinking of asking them how much they would charge me for fitting the cams.

Gandi699

I'd be interested to know what somewhere would charge. Lol

might be worth trying something with a better diff or something cryogentically treated? That said 1.1s arent known for their ability to take abuse

Yeah I have thought about getting a diff but work isn't regular enough to get one. Lol. Plus I'd have to get someone to fit it and I'd want the box refurbed at the same time. So again, would cost a fortune :(

martin1985

probably not cheap lol! how long would you say for it to get done?

BenPUG106
2nd May 2013, 16:24
probably not cheap lol! how long would you say for it to get done?

Erm. Not long. But you want to let the sealant on the cam ladders dry before you drive it so a day really.

Didn't really time it when I done it. Just got on with it. Lol

I see you got Giff to do the hard work ;)

Needs some trim clips looking at it.

Looks well though!

Love 106's on cyclones.

I really miss my China Blue one and would jump at the chance of another.

Trim clips are on the list but never got around to getting them. Lol
Thanks :)

Cheers mate. I'm toying with selling this soon I think. Or get another cheap car and strip this one down and sort it out. Not that there's nothing majorly wrong with it. It could do with another gearbox haha
