dual tuned-length intake runners ftw

[you wont get parts for it mate]

WRONG. When will people realise that hondas are the anti christ?

[monnymc]

i hate hondas as much as the next man, but i'm still impressed at how much power they squeeze out of a 1.6 engine

Hi Again, 

Have finally got back from holidays, done over 3000km's and the car went great.  i did take some pics and tried to upload them but didn't have much luck... my internet connection was/is slow and i lost the plot and gave up,  will try again though.   i only saw 2 205's whilst driving around, a white GR in Whangamata and a Black GTI in Whangaparoa.

Being the new year and everything the first thing I am going to do is replace all the shocks and brakes and hopefully lower the front by 2-3 inches as it seems to look a bit high.  Haven't started looking for lowering springs yet but don't really know where to start.  Has been sugested that I just snip snip them but i have done that before on a RX-3 i had during my school days and didn't really think it handled that well?? Have been introduced to a friends new boyfriend who happens to be a spraypainter so am gonna get a quote for a re-spray as the Red paint is pretty weathered, as seems to happen to most Red cars.  Also been looking at alloys for it but there doesn't seem to be much available for the stud pattern etc... most seem to be 17" (ha ha) which I think would look a bit odd, well to me anyway, so thinking 15" will look alright once lowered.

The UK Peugeot sites look amazing with all the after-market parts you can get these things,  what a shame we don't have the same down under.

Will try and upload pics again...

Cheers graham

Nice pics mate

Sorry to derail the thread.



This car is the baby brother of another 309 with a Honda Type R engine in the UK. The 'original' car is a silver Trio on standard steels. Outside and interior all standard. The engine is running 50mm ex British Touring car direct to head throttle bodies. I think he may have downsized them since then for everyday driveabliity... nutter. Also the handy thing is the cable gearshift allows the gear lever to be placed up high on a tower arrangement so its more WRC-esque

Hey All,

   Have been doing some looking on the net regarding carb upgrades for me engine.  Think I may have a Solex not a Webber on there at the mo .   I quess it will be impossible to get a Rallye carb??  Maybe re-jetting??  I have replaced the standard air-box with a Pod filter which has made a big difference...  any suggestions about what route to follow...
