#1: project 180 Author: Parkerspug, Location: PlymouthPosted: Mon Jun 04, 2012 6:28 am ---- So...... i bought the 180 in dec and this is the progress so far !
first thing was getting some L.E.D lights on
a few new parts for the pug
k&N typhoon induction kit
Janspeed exhaust
Took longer than we thought but thanks to mattyp and carter we got the old one off and fitted the janspeed.
Inlet manifold looked tired and plain time to make it shine
Fitting the shiney manifold some time next week!
new rear dampeners sorted

Typhoon kit fitted today!! took a while but worth it! noise is amazing
#11: Re: project 180 Author: MattyP, Location: PlymouthPosted: Sat Jun 30, 2012 8:56 am ---- good job bro, don't forget to pop round tomorrow for a spin, i need some 206 drug in me again
#12: Re: project 180 Author: spike_202, Location: West midsPosted: Sat Jun 30, 2012 10:06 am ---- Nice updates
Does it sit Bhind the fog? Also may be just my eyes but have you still got the protective cover/film still on the cone?
#13: Re: project 180 Author: Parkerspug, Location: PlymouthPosted: Sat Jun 30, 2012 2:41 pm ---- its a breathable sleave that goes over thee filter! stops the wet and general dirt getting into the filter.
Yea sits right behind the fog light! sounds amazing had a viper kit on my old 206 and this typhoon kit just roars so much more! best buy for the 206 yet
#14: Re: project 180 Author: spike_202, Location: West midsPosted: Sat Jun 30, 2012 2:53 pm ---- Cool didn't know that lol, I had a ripspeed cone on mine when I 1st had it 5years ago and sounded mint but used to much petrol hearing the sound, so got a panel filter then had it throttle bodied lol.
#15: Re: project 180 Author: Parkerspug, Location: PlymouthPosted: Fri Jul 27, 2012 1:31 pm ---- just a little update on the progress
Engine bay nearly finished
#16: Re: project 180 Author: MattyP, Location: PlymouthPosted: Fri Jul 27, 2012 3:01 pm ---- Looking good bro, all we got to do now is get you a new battery
#18: Re: project 180 Author: JamieM, Posted: Fri Jul 27, 2012 6:49 pm ---- How did you do your fannymould? Looks great, always wanted to do the polished affect but that looks dipped?
#19: Re: project 180 Author: DanT, Location: Torbay, EnglandPosted: Sat Jul 28, 2012 1:36 am ---- Done a really good job on that inlet! Wanted to polish mine but im leaning towards powercoating it now! Smart car
#20: Re: project 180 Author: Parkerspug, Location: PlymouthPosted: Sat Jul 28, 2012 2:56 am ---- thanks for the comments Yea bro new battery is in now.
polishing the manifold took alot of hard work but happy with the result
made the battery box at work out of alu! then the whole inside is done out in plastic. If anyone wants one i can make more
All battery cables were moved / rewired to make it look tidyer.
#21: Re: project 180 Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Sat Jul 28, 2012 3:53 am ---- That looks really smart. Great job of the manifold. Some Samco radiator hoses would look good.
#22: Re: project 180 Author: Seabook, Posted: Sat Jul 28, 2012 4:34 am ---- got the be careful with that typhoon kit.
once you hit a water puddle=dead
#23: Re: project 180 Author: DJ_M4rko, Location: BiH CapljinaPosted: Sat Jul 28, 2012 8:08 am ---- Nice work
#24: Re: project 180 Author: JamieM, Posted: Sun Jul 29, 2012 6:11 pm ---- So it is a case of taking it off and getting it on a bench like I did with my old VTS cam covers ... long that, they took long enough and they were rectangles lol.
Thought you might have had it chromed or something!
Inlet & the blue Typhoon look good the rest is not to my taste, but I appreciate the effort :).
#25: Re: project 180 Author: Parkerspug, Location: PlymouthPosted: Sun Aug 05, 2012 8:13 am ---- suspension finally come through!!! took nearly 2 months. europerformance was s**t!
Will be fitting thursday so next update should be the car looking low
#26: Re: project 180 Author: kingsway2468, Location: swanseaPosted: Sun Aug 05, 2012 11:40 am ---- looking good mate loving under the hood
#27: Re: project 180 Author: Icetto, Location: Cape TownPosted: Wed Sep 26, 2012 6:42 am ---- Great looking 180
Throw the sponge away
#28: Re: project 180 Author: jayz206gti, Location: TamworthPosted: Wed Sep 26, 2012 2:37 pm ---- How did you get to that level of shine on the manifold dude?
#29: Re: project 180 Author: Andrew, Location: Black Country Ay IPosted: Thu Sep 27, 2012 3:49 am ---- I'm assuming he worked his way up through fine wet and dry paper, and then finished with someting like Autosol metal polish. That's what I do anyway
#30: Re: project 180 Author: DJ-, Location: UKPosted: Thu Sep 27, 2012 1:43 pm ---- Like the work on the manifold too!
#31: Re: project 180 Author: MattyP, Location: PlymouthPosted: Thu Sep 27, 2012 1:56 pm ---- I think he should donate it to his brother
#32: Re: project 180 Author: JamieM, Posted: Thu Oct 25, 2012 1:38 pm ---- Haha Matty just noticed this is your brother, you sure you want to go 180 if you already have one in the fam lol
unfortunately luke there isn't but i will convince him to go somewhere to get pics of his and of course mine
his set up is as he's mentioned, eibach sportline springs with bilstein b8 front shocks and spax rears
#36: Re: project 180 Author: L5_UKS, Location: West MidlandsPosted: Mon Nov 19, 2012 2:30 pm ---- Yeah :), I want to see how it sits on that suspension I'm tempted to do the same set up on mine minus the spax rears so want to see how it sits
