That article makes no sense, goes on about the danger angle, ignores there’s a support bar there to make the angle safe, then ties the harness to the support bar, which is unsafe. Those bars are designed to resist the downward pull of the harness straps and not a horizontal pull. There was a...

You do realise thats a harness guide bar and not something to attach them to?

Mapping day. First up was the cam timing. Turns out the exhaust cam was 8 degrees out. We did a compression test after that just in case. All was good though! Next up my 315cc injectors were first flow tested and then fitted. Car all strapped up for mapping. Car running on the...

Slim SGS 1.5 tonne one. Only thing that fits under a Westie. https://www.sgs-engineering.com/garage-equipment/trolley-jacks/tja15-aluminium-trolley-jack

Worst driving “sporty” front driver I’ve ever driven sadly. When I bought the Mrs one I was all giddy after owning my GP. Sadly the way it pulls about is awful and the 1st to 2nd change is weird due to the ratios. It’s well screwed together though and the Mrs likes pottering about in it.

Race rig is go. Ready for mapping tomorrow.

Going to Emerald for tuning for on Monday. So I thought I better tart the trailer up. Wheels looked like it used to live under water. Quick spray up

A bit like what the GoPro 4's can do? Basically making a cheap reversing camera for my trailer out of one.

Tell me what you go for. I'll buy the same. Volume discount yo! (cheeky pun in there)

Just to supply!

I was quoted nearly £600 for all that from Cotswold. Then a read the reviews saying it's shite lol

Same here. Volume is there but clarity isn't. Some replacement speakers would make the world of difference but I can't be arsed.

The only thing that lets mine down is the stereo

New tacho to test if the old one if funked....(The old one doesn't seem to do anything...)

The story before I had this car was such. It had two owners, the guy who built and raced it and a guy who bought it off the guy who raced it.... Well the second guy thought he'd do the car up a bit, he had it painted, bought a new steering wheel etc etc. He also had the cambelt changed. Sadly...

Cool car. Terrible plate.

Booked on at Snetterton in October. Best get it working...

I went to the Polo you bender.

Further update New removable boss fitted to the steering wheel for 2 reasons: A) I can get in.... B) Brings the wheel into a nicer driving position Also..... My new axle from Germany is here for my trailer I bought from the Gypos! Yay Once all that is done the car and the trailer will...

That looks in good nick for something that's not been taxed since 1984!

New pump and filter set up. I even butchered a bit of carbon too. Car started after it was fitted so thats good!

Tow bar is a hidden one. Taking it back off it only a 60 min job. Some 315cc injectors just turned up. They replace the 21 year old 210cc one which have to run at about 120% duty cycle at full throttle! Spray pattern on these should allow a better idle and a bit more torque too.

New fuel filters are here. Pre and post pump ones. It was good to see my car already had a pre pump filter fitted. Most Westfield's never have them fitted and then end up eating fuel pumps.

Yeah my 2nd Westie won the 1600cc class back in 2004. It was running a 205bhp 9400rpm K series at the time. Mental s**t.

Oooo I want to do Harewood in the Westie when it's finished.

Fuel system stripped out and everything else has had new put fuel lines in place. Just waiting on a new set of pre and post pump filters. Pump and tank set up. Still has fuel in hence me looping the lines off.

How to make the Alpina forum sad... Towbar time.

Got some from a Volvo in the end. 315cc. Sorted.

No just bosch type fitment with the 14mm ends.

What has them fitted as standard?
