After a particularly nasty accident of which the least damaged car was mine, I drove home unlike the others, head on accident in front of me one spun into the side of me. I am saddened to be breaking my 2.6 CD, B pillar gone, A distorted, sill bent.
:'( :'( :'( :'( >:( >:( >:( >:(
I will be keeping my radio CD changer amp and speakers. I may keep the engine and gearbox and enough electrics to run them for a kit car but I will have the following available.
Star Silver 2 Z147 Bonnet & passenger side doors, boot with wing spoiler, front bumper is tatty but I do have headlamp washers, rear bumper has a scrape on one corner and the other is distorted underneath, cream / beige interior not bad condition, climate panel is good, as are door switches.
Left front wing small dent, right totalled.
Rear tyres brand new, one of the front is VGC all 4 wheels are good.
Romano SGI LPG system with new vapouriser as the one on the car is knackered (was my now aborted winter job).
Eibach sports springs. Barely used KYB rear shocks (as I fitted ->), Monroe load leveller shocks with gauge. Poly bushed front wishbones, all you want are the bushes.
All glass is OK. Headlamps, OK not great, one has broken adjuster but broke in the correct position, the other is slightly cloudy. Got a good grill and a good spare grill, all boot/bonnet struts are OK.
Now to ruinning gear.
Seriously tempted to have a go at a kit car which will use the engine box ECUs and a few other parts but if I get enough interest here goes.
2.6 V6 164,000 just run in, 3.0 cams, ported heads, 0-60 was about 8 seconds, possibly under on good petrol. It leaks oil suspect crank seal, gear box just works, changes OK. New cam belt kit fitted last July.
Will start breaking next week.
Just make offers, but not silly ones, as I have a big loan to pay off - just bought an off roader as I could not have another Omega, it would not have been right.

This was a couple of years ago to show wheels and colour, since them bumper reacted and paint came off.

About 8 years
For £200
Tank, ECU, bust ECU, knackered vapouriser, NEW vapouriser, loom, straws, injectors, shut off valve, filler, pressure sensor, switch and if you help remove you can take as much of the Martin wiring off it as you can.
Cut injectors, not sure if I can split them or not, as they would not when I did the heads.

1 cut injector cable, the tank and the filler still to go, also need to find a few non fitted spares. Also I am trying to remove the loom without chopping it.
I will need your help to get the tank out.
Cut injector is a bugger of a job - I had to take the injectors out.
If Saturday is dry will be able to remove tank on Sunday.

Well you can fit FL to PFL and I do have newish vented rear discs stil on the pads I fitted them with (and new shoes), and the rear calipers are OK, fronts, well who doesn't replace their discs every few pads as a matter of course.
I suppose it would be fitting for my old car to keep a few loved Omegas on the road, better than crushing a whole car.

Could do with a really clean boot carpet if yours is nice ,n,clean :y

MikeDundee's mechanic thought that as well, with predictable results :'(

But didn't he have solid discs inside of vented calipers?
-
I think the incident in question involved fitting solid discs to vented calipers :o
If I have read your last correctly, the car you are breaking has the following fitted...
Vented rear discs.
Wider calipers for said vented discs
Pads
Shoes
If all are refitted together exactly as they come off your car, then there should be no cause for concern :-\ provided of course that the discs and pads are only lightly and evenly worn...
A tidy brake upgrade for anyone with solid rear discs, TB included :y

New pads would be a good idea while in bits but they are the ones I fitted with the discs in 2012

Apologies for jumping in here
Are we saying that IF you have vented discs at the rear, you can fit front callipers to that hub / disc as a upgrade ?
-
Wasn't there a change in rear caliper piston diameter somewhere around the MFL->FL transition?
Be worth checking that first, as it could mess up the brake balance.

Just a mad / no cost idea due the extra weight behind the rear axel of the donut tank and the amount of weight I carry when if I get any work :(
I've still got the old v6 estate on the side of the house so I could have pinched the bits of that :-\
Can the rear brake balance be adjusted manually or is that all down to the Abs pump programming ?
-
What I was getting at was because Martins car had vented REAR discs with the wider calipers, both could be fitted to a car that has solid REAR discs without issue. Should also be stamped '42' on the outside face of the caliper.
Potentially, the front caliper will bolt onto the rear hub... BUT, rear discs are 10mm smaller in diameter, and vented discs are 20 mm thick at the rear/24 mm at the front. Front caliper piston area is about twice the size of the rear ones, so as Kevin has pointed out, fitting front calipers to the rear WITHOUT uprating the front brakes will almost certainly cause a problem. Also it is not known if the position of the front caliper will foul the disc when bolted to the rear hub :-\

If you've the parts to try it, hypothetically speaking of course, and only to establish that they physically fit... then please add your findings to the Brake Upgrades thread in Car Chat, as I was thinking along similar lines for the rear once the fronts have bigger discs/calipers fitted :-\
