Pug 205 GTI

[AndreasW]

Finally some proper photos! Not taken by me

[AndreasW]

Car is up and running now, had some trouble with getting the engine to run properly but got it sorted
I also bought some new wheels yesterday, MIM's 7x15 et13. Got them mounted up with 185/45 tires and a 5mm spacer at the back, but wouldnt hurt with a another 10mm at the back. WIll probably use a spacer up front too, for some more poke
And sorry for the crappy pics, still havent bought myself a proper camera.

I love those old 205s

[AndreasW]

Thanks!

Prepped the enginebay at friday, and painted it satin black yesterday. Came out pretty good I think

Looks good. I have no idea how that rear suspension works, though. Silly french people.

Yeah 17's are a bit big, but I've sold them anyway :P So probably gonna use the stock GTI wheels or the Exip wheels from the other car, and space them out

nice project,

althought 17inch is WAY to big for a 205
16inch and 165 40 r16 is also big...

15inch with 165 45 r15 is the best in my eyes

(my project is also here on stanceworks)
(silver 1.6 on red pls)

Update!

Rear beam painted, new shocks too



Old engine is out

Nice weather too!

Gotta love Norway!


Engine and dash wiring is out, what a mess!


Removed rust under and painted,





Rear beam mounted, (except the handbrake cables)


Interior is a mess right now!


Started prepping the enginebay here the other day. Some rust problems here and there that has to be taken care of. Bay will be painted matte black in end
I've also started stripping the other 205. Dash, wiring, engine, etc is out now
My plan is to move everything over to the gold one.
