Alot.

Theres a few threads on 205gtidrivers about it mate

Post #3

you need a fabricated top right engine mount,

a modified subframe,
custom cooling layout (every one I have seen is different)

hydraulic conversion to the clutch pedal,

a wiring loom adapted to connect to the 205 car loom.

shortened driveshafts.

fit the cable shift mechanism.

custom downpipe to centre section bend.

Engine swap aside, you'd probably have a hard time getting it to go around corners with that massive lump in the front!

They drive quite well, Alloy block as well which helps allot, the only thing that is heavy is the Gearbox.
They don;t fit neatly into a 205 no matter what anyone says and cooling is a big issue, Bad enough in the 406

Would be a lot of fun in a 205. I noticed the weight difference in the 306, but it wasn't that bad.

Some nice opinions Smile

Miles still has no idea how to cool this v6 engine, so states as fact it can't be cooled.

The actual fact is that it runs very cool, if done properly.

It does go very well in the 205, and handles nicely.

You don't drive yours very hard, so you cannot comment, track work gets them hot very quickly where a simple 8 valver wouldn't even be breaking a sweat.

Surely you want the weight as far into the wheelbase as possible?

Anyway the way the subframe works is different in a 405 so its always going to be different - mine was completely different from eddy's and they were both 306s!

Chill out guys, you'd almost certainly get on in real life so don't be twats on here to each other.
