My kit took longer to arrive than quoted, 80% of the kit didn’t fit at all. The front brake lines were to short, one was to long, the brake line to the hydro handbrake was to short, from T piece to bulkhead fitting was ok, then from that bulk head fitted to the calliper was way to short.
So in...
Unfortunately for me no.
Currently trying to come up with a solution with them. I’m not going to get a free diff but a diff at cost has been offered but they haven’t said a price.
Yeah they’re a big wide car. Especially with all the curbs. I almost hit a few on the inside rear on the tight bits.
Pete Walton’s was flying though.
The car seamed to go pretty well really. Quite nimble though the tight stuff but still have a bit of pace on the long straights. Already...
I did walk past a couple of times but didn’t know which one of his service crew you were. Funny enough he borrowed my cousins seats for the event.
I’m quite happy that the little Clio was putting in better times than him on the Saturday, but now I have seen on Facebook he’s after more power...
Promenade Stages 2018
Friday night went well. I was a little cautious on ss1 having never been there before.
Ss2 was a lot better and got 29th fastest stage time out of 94.
That left us 38th over night so we got reseeded to 37th on the road.
Saturday morning went great setting good times...
Goes well for 220bhp. Was having a look at past stage times in the week and was up there with one of the fast fwd.
Me and my brother had a race tonight. The 106 is 150bhp and 120lbft
Mines 194bhp and 170lbft
I only just start to pull away when I get into 4th.
Goes to show how much weight...
Bonnet pod fitted and wired up. Also got the bumper pod wiring finished ready for them to fix on to the bumper.
Bought an upper pms engine mount as my red Ktec one kept coming loose and wouldn’t tighten back up.
I had to bend the throttle linkage out the way of one of the bolts on the mount...
I just had a look. 2L is circuit racing, stage Rallying is 1L. So my brothers doesn’t comply but it’s never been brought up yet though.
Scrutineers are a funny bunch though. Last rally they told me a need spring washers under the bolts in my cage and not penny washers....... can’t find it in...
Looking good but never knew the size of a catch can was a thing for rallying. My brothers had a 0.5 in his 106 cup car for years and it’s never been brought up. And I’ve just put a 1L one on mine
It’s a rally car not a show car ? I’ve bought another engine to be built at a decent spec, so that one will be nice and shinny.
Tyres are ridiculous. I paid £280 for them kumhos, £100 for the hankooks from us tyres and £320 for the super soft kumhos from tweeks.
Those hankooks new are £170 a...
Catch tank and breather on. Just need to get the hose on a little further
Bumper pods ready to get wired up
So to some new tyre pitches
2 new Kumho softs to go with another set of new super softs for the rear
Set of used new style hankooks in soft
It runs and drives...
Now time for mapping at efi on Sunday.
There is a video here of the new 5.25 final drive pull. Bare in mind I didn’t want to go all the way to the redline as it still isn’t mapped and the dephaser switch is still not wired in.
Since the last event the cars had...
Jenvey...
Got the car started tonight by bodging a live feed to the fuel pump. I’m probably going it wire in a switch for the pump so I can turn it on manually because I can’t figure out what’s wrong and why the live to the tank goes neutral why ignition is cranked
The car pops and bangs like mad. I used...
