[car_upgrade] Peugeot 605 2.0 16v Turbo 350+

The dashboard.

 

It used to be like this.

 

 

 

 

Now it looks like this.

 

 

 

It is not finished yet, but when it will, I will post more pictures.

New suspension part... I had no choice but to buy KONI Special and SPAX springs ... again from thje UK.

Peugeot 605 has everything but good brakes .... Awful braking.

 

I bought 4-pots BREMBO front calipers and BREMBO brake discs from Alfa Romeo 166 - 310mm compared to 286mm discs, 4-pots calipers compared to 1-pot 605's, huge brake pads compared to moderate pug's....

 

 

 

 

I had to align the calipers somehow, and I made new brackets.

 

 

 

Brake discs need to refurbished, but when I have time.

Good brakes have to be eqipped with good brake lines.

I look forward to seeing the end result. Good work so far!

Thank you. I am doing my best. Project goes slowly - money factor is the major factor ... but it's going well.

 

As regards the fuel system, I wanted to use external Aeromotive A1000 fuel pump. But later on I changed my mind and prefered to stawy with internal Walbro 255... from a UK seller ....

 

By the way, best prices are in the UK and in the USA, but after paying import fees, VAT and higher shipping costs for parts from the USA, the UK sellers are preferrable.

 

I have no pictures of the fuel pump, but everybody knows Walbro pumps.

 

Genuine pug fuel lines were replaced by flexible braided stainless lines 8AN and 6AN.

 

 

 

 

Fixing back the fuel tank was one terrible horror ... I got mad, it took me about one hour to get it in its place.

 

 

 

 

New high quallity Earl's fittings will handle the high fuel pressure.

 

 

 

 

Huge 8AN fuel filter will take care of the smalles particlеs in the fuel.

The fuel regulator is Aeromotive. I purchased it together with the A1000 fuel pump, but I kept the regulator after the pump got sold.

 

 

 

 

The Delphi Rochester 1000cc low impedance fuel injectors were purchased from Australia.

 

 

 

 

The original fuel rail was so small for my project. It was impossible to find any better rail, so I decided to do it myself.

 

The rail extrusion and special machining tool were ordered from Ross Machine Racing, USA.

 

I cut the lenght I needed and thread the ends for the 8AN fittings.

 

 

 

 

This is the final result.

 

 

 

 

As soon as possible I will prepare the fixing brackets and will tighten the rail to the intake manifold.

very nice mate looks to be an interesting project

Fair play! I'll be watching with interest, your bound to have a few headaches along the way. Nice to see how things are developed along the way rather than just seeing the end product .
