New Mintex discs, pads and Goodridge braided brake lines fitted, rear brake lines were a right pig to do but got there in the end. Brakes feel alot better now, no more fade.
P.S Cheers to pricey for helping me out for the day!

#38: Re: 206 Grand Tourisme #1482 Project *UPDATE PG3* Author: Austin, Location: TelfordPosted: Sun Apr 25, 2010 7:54 am ---- *UPDATE*
Has been a while since i updated this thread, so here we go. Not alot has been done to the car, just a couple of little things really, but starting to get a few parts in my garage now, here's a few pics:
What do we have here?
OMP Upper Strut Brace
Brand New Spax VSX 40mm Kit, which i got for a bargain price of £78
Constella Group N gear linkages:
Thats all for now, got to get some new drop links and top mounts before fitting the Spax kit but hope to have them all fitted by FCS. Next plans are GTi 180 Rear anti-roll bar, poly bushes and GTi 180 torsion bars. Oh and a good detail ready for FCS
Got another update for you guys, Spax VSX Kit and OMP Strut Brace have both been fitted, also lowered the torsion bars 40mm but seem to be getting a knocking noise so will need to investigate. The car has also been given a service this weekend, changed spark plugs for bosch super 4's and air filter for a K&N panel filter. Also dropped the engine and gearbox oil and, which were both on the low side.
Seen as its only 2 weeks away from FCS i decided to give the car a good detailing as it was looking abit sorry for itself. Gave it a m/c polish with menzerna pads and compounds then topped it off with AutoGlym HD Wax, as you can tell form the pics it came out very well.
Next, group N gear inkages to be fitted and also sort out rear knocking noise as its starting to annoy me now!
Comments welcome

#43: Re: 206 Grand Tourisme #1482 Project *UPDATE PG3 12/09/10* Author: Austin, Location: TelfordPosted: Sun Sep 12, 2010 12:24 pm ---- Right guys, haven't updated for a while so here we go!
Haven't got alot to report on really, some may know i took the car around the track at rcokingham for FCS, absolutely loved it! can't wait to get on track again, just need to upgrade the brakes, had a couple of s***ty pants moments! haha. But i think i have earned my track sticker which has taken pride of place on the boot!
Had to have the cambelt and aux belt changed last month as it was getting on nearly 10 years old and was in the back of mind that it was going to snap so it was about time it got done. Turned out the waterpump was on its way out aswell so had that at the same time, set me back a nice £400 sheets!
After that i never had alot of wonga floatin about so just done a couple of little things. Finally got round to fitting the group N gear linkages and spoox motorsport quickshift, after alot of f**ks and s**ts, but feels as tight as a nun now! huge improvement!
Also got myself a nice carbon rocker cover, been wanting one for ages, when finally one popped up on ebay and got it for a bargain price, looks awesome!
Here's a couple of new pics:
Next plans are to get a gti180 ARB and torsion bars, and upgrade to gti180 front brakes as got a little brake fade on track at rockingham
Also a set of baker top mounts and gearbox mounts, nice and stiff!!!
P.S Leon is my mates, its beautiful!
Peace out!
