Long time since last update now. This winter I've been collecting parts for my new engine, still 8 valve. Forged rods, custom forged pistons, new liners, 1953cc, 43mm inlet valves, 12,5or 12,7 CR, palnning tu run with 30 to 40% E85. Also new paint in engine bay and engine, and some redesign (all covers powdercoated and new gold anodised bolts and so, and new oilcooler and cooling fan.

 

I also mounting a PAS rack with 2,1 lock to lock with Selholm Tuning electric pump.

 

Pics in a week or two, when some results can bee shown.

Where do you get quickrack kits for PAS racks?

[cybernck 400 1 Cars]

any links for the rack and the pump?

It's a complete new GpN steering from Xsara. Stright fit, just a custom bottom steering axle and the rest is plug and play.

Pump from here:

He also can custom made ratios for PAS racks, if you send parts for meassurements.

 

I bought my rack second hand(new spare) don't know partno, Citroen Sport unit I think.

Here is a pic of the pump. Dimmensions are aprox 13 x 25 cm

 

PAS rack, need some grinding and paint at the back, caused by stroage;

 

Althoug this was ment to be used on Xsara VTS'98, none of the lower steering axles for this model fitted. I found out that the part from a XM TD fitted the splines, so I am going to cut a section of these and weld to the 205 axle:

 

Looking forward to try the new steering on the car. Should be nice in tight bends

I would very much like to know how you came across your hood, I've been looking for one like it in Argentina for a while now but haven't been able to get my hands on it just yet...

Thanks.

 

It's from an automatic version. Maybe still availiable from Pug dealer and this company has ads for them, look under body parts:

Or look at a scrapyard.

Project is moving slowly forward, I have't the time needed by the moment, but all major parts are finished(engine, steering, ++). Hope to get back on track next summer.

Rear beam is a modified 205.

The wheel colour is Toyota 152, with half matte clear coat on top.

I really remember wheelcenter-arch distance, but I guess a 60mm drop. I know many think that is too low and makes handling bad, but it has worked ok for me with the mods I've done.

[davenport 51]

seeings as i have completely copied your idea for top mounts the least i can do is first say thank you for inspiring me...

 

secondly... i hope things are moving forward with the build... i look forward to seeing what has been done to the car...

It would be cool if you turned up on any of the trackdays with the swedish peugeotclub this summer. I'd like to take a look at that machine!

all looks superb ...

Love this car

 

I now have the same front bumper you have on this car after months of searching

 

Might look into making a mould so i can reproduce these in both fibreglass and carbon fibre if there is enough interest?

 

Keep up the good work Espen
