Seicento Seicento Abarth Turbo

its not available anymore i'm afraid

The receipt for the conversion is with the pics though..


Can buy this minter when I finally order a corsa VXR if you want Lol

Cor**** Vomit eXploding Rubbish? I don't get it.

Well that sucks. Was hoping to get a conversion made up and use it on a policy for my 2nd year of driving.

Luke.

Jamie's sei will probably sell for less than the conversion alone cost

Maybe

Jamie, did any of the pics i took come out, i forgot to get them off the phone...

Errr nope, other than dropped the manifold off to get the blowing sorted properly, getting it all machined flat like V/A should of always done

Might be an idea to do yours before it goes back together

Also got a "turbo i.e" badge ready to fit to it and a few other fancy parts although not sure if she's staying getting lured by other more facy cars (mostly jap lol)





Cheers Rich

Nice looking car its missing one thing which i think would help with the performance a nuremberg ring sticker. i reckon it would ad about 5bhp

Ha

Although a Castle combe one :chin:

Right just a quick little update..

After a bit of umming and ahhhing about what to do with the car (sell it was my idea but Kirsty wants to keep it ) I decided to give it a good going over..

Firstly the blowing on the turbo to exhaust manifold had to be sorted which is the ball ache of removing the front bumper, radiator et all Happy days..

The cause of the blowing was the two surfaces not machined completely flat when the conversion was done which in turn bent the studs and has been seen a few times on VA cars..

Solution is easy enough, get a engineering shop to machine both surfaces perfectly flat..

At this point I decided to do the job properly to get the car totally sorted all round and hopefully as tidy and well built as a certain Imola blue one (high target )

This led to the "do list" like all us cento'ers have

First part is the sooner to do stuff... (hopefully in the next couple of weeks)

Firstly some new coolant hoses from oldschool
Fit Fuel Pressure Regulater
New ally radiator
Oil Cooler setup if i can find space
Magnecor leads
Champion EON1 plugs
Water temp guage
Oil temp/pressure guage
Fit GT front brakes
Oh yeah fit new front speakers and sub

And stuff to do in the next few months:
Punto 75 Camshaft
Either PSA 36mm TB or Tricker TB
Blue Alcantara reclining bucket seats
Refurb 130TC wheels in white and get spacers (£££'S )
Mk2 Seicento coolant tank
Mk2 Seicento Strut brace (if it fits )
Relocate air filter to wheel arch
And just some general anodised bolts and paint a few bits that are dirty :yum:



And just because everyone loves pictures here's one at end of play today...

Where to fit the oil cooler :idea:

Glad to see you're keeping it Jamie and going to get it finished properly - some bits that VA just never thought to do like the oil cooler and proper mounting of the turbo to the manifold

Good luck with it mate, keep us posted

102bhp is a respectable figure given the original power

Nice going mate

Have you got any headwork done?

Jamie's sold it to another FF'er

:wave: thats me.. no car has completely standard head.. did have a p75 cam to go in but i sold it
