Re: My seicento Project

thx yeah interior is nice but it aint cheap to do, its all finally comming together now

today i didnt really do much hunted around for some 12mm oil tube but parkers nor local motorfactors didnt do oil pipe this thick so i had to have a custom made silicon hose made at graham goode motors dude in the samco department was ace made me one up for £5 was still warm when i got it lol thats how fresh it was, its amazing how they make the hoses there

after i fitted the oil tube then brought some oil 10W/40w shell stuff semi sinthetic supposed to be good for turbos as hyabusa recomend it

done quite a bit of weldind today, welded a mates escort cab seats to the floor as he cross threaded and sheered the bolts lol also melted his carpet hehe, welded plates over the indicator holes in my wings ready for smoothing also made brackets and mounted intercooler to the car was a pain in the ass but finally got there after my car set on fire hehe just got to sand and repaint the burnt paint lol

also connected up a few pipes and fitted fuel regulator that come with the turbo sei for some reason (mise aswell fit it as they are £70 on ebay lol)

also welded hooters under passenger side wing to get them out the way as they are big (from a vectra) will get some pics tomorrow as it was too dark to get any photos

still not finished the exhaust yet maybee tomorrow lol

Re: My seicento Project

today i done:

put the cat back on the car

connected coolant system and done a 50/50 mix with antifreeze

finished connecting fuel lines

ajusted handbrake (only goes up one click now lol)

lined up wings properly (no more big gaps)

charged battery up as it went dead for some reason lol

also got price for the hoses i need making up from PSH £107 + VAT cant afford them yet so intercooler connections will be on hold till 23rd (payday)

just got to wait for my FCD and injector controller to come so can wire them in, also slowly ill be changing hoses to silicon one by one (except big coolant hoses as black is the theme im going for

also started her up today, turned the key and the engine turned, and turned, and turned, and turned...... it didnt start so had a look at the engine and i forgot i put my fuel reg screw all the way down few turns later turn the key and varoom ITS ALIVE!!!!

let the engine run for a while after 10minutes of warming up fan kicked in so all was good gave it a little rev to see if turbo spinning nicely and gawd its like a leaf blower lol just need to get some pipework fitted now

@ Kritip

got some pics of rear goodridge hoses for ya

Re: My seicento Project

Unless you plumb this in series with the 2nd injector, and not the same parallel way that VAD set them up this will have no value what so ever as the fuel will always take the easiest route and this will be through the regulator in the throttle body as factory they are set to be between 0.8-1.2bar a big variable, so if car is on lower set up say 0.8bar fuel pressure and you run 0.6bar boost pressure, say good bye pistons as you're getting 0.2bar fuel pressure so very lean.

If you don't understand see my pics to see how my 2nd injector & fuel pressure regulator are plumbed in, this way i can run the 2nd injector on idle 2.5bar and on boost 3bar of pressure, and primary injector has been raised to 1.4bar by means of adjusting the built in adjuster.

Re: My seicento Project

loving this car like emm and others after the first few pics i was thinking it was a bit OTT but after reading through all 11 pages ive got to say im very impressed asyou ave modified every aspect of the car and with good ideas rather than off the shelf sub boxes etc

now the rear 15" screen how good is it and where did you get this from and how much? just im thinking of fitting one in my car for my ps2 as the 5" sun visor screens are annoyingly small

and just so im sure what engine is in? im assuming its the uno turbo motor but read that you mentioned a sei turbo motor but my memorys gone since that page half an hour ago :shakehead if it was the uno turbo motor how easy was the conversion as you seemed reasonably confident on it?

Good luck with the project

hi cheers for the comments the scren i got from a seller on ebay called eonon was about £170 delivered, engine was going to be the uno turbo mk1 engine but i didnt have the relevant skills to fit this myself (learning as im doing it you see) so had to get rid and source the 1.1 VAD kit which i happened to buy the only other modded seicento in leicester lol (just 5mins away)

going to take few more pics today as ive ran out of things to do now till my electroics come through the post and when i got enough money to buy the hoses i need

Re: My seicento Project

today just put the car back together as cant really do anything else till i get paid, and till my electronics come through the post.

just tidied cables/pipes, go nice space for piperX induction to go, put headlights back in, put new bonnet on (which will be badboyed and vented when i can be bothered) painted calipers red (still got to do the back calipers) i have wirebrushed the bits of paint off the discs

also put some tar bitchamin stuff under arches to help stop rust ect....

put bumper back on too which fits perfectly with intercooler ect... also put washer bottle back on and put wheel liner in the passenger side, cant put it on drivers side till i have changed some hoses to silicon

just need my electronic fuel injector controller/boost guage/rev counter to come and to save £120 for my silicon hoses to be made then it will be finished under the bonnet

stay tuned peeps

@J333EVO

is my fuel reg plummed in correctly then?
