Awesome read as always. Looking forward to the rebuild updates as & when they happen.

Love this thread!!

Check all the earth points are clean & tight.

I really want to do this but was under the impression that the speedo works off the abs?

I have one that I’m very happy with, only downside is the slight delay of around 4-5 seconds when using the app. I’ve found my battery to last around 2 months which I think is pretty good to be fair. You can also get a solar charger surround for it too.

I asked well over a year ago mate but never got a single reply. Took it to a local place who improved it slightly but it’s still not how I’d like it set up.

Retropower

Fitted one to mine recently, everything bolted up as factory.

Thanks for following, I got this back together but forgot to update. Bent subframe, so replaced it. Found that one of the driveshaft gaiters had split so had to change that too Replaced radiator Then had the alignment sorted and gave it a clean. Looking forward to next year.

Nice, Jamie always does amazing work.

Nice project, will be following this. Currently thinking of selling my mk1 to get a mk2.

I’m also at this stage. So it’s K tec, pms or 172 cup set up?

Bad obsession motorsport - project binky.

Disappointing.....

Thanks. Breaker already sourced for parts.

This is the sheared ball joint which looks strangely like it may have been like this for awhile ? Doesn't look like a fresh break to me? Impact ripped the bushes clean out the wishbone Bent subframe Disc Broken arb mount Just a small list then.

I was really enjoying the car, the track, it was amazing until I got a little carried away, touched the grass, spun me a few times and spat me out the other side into the barrier. Sheared the ball joint, bent wishbone, creased subframe, shuttered disc, bent driveshaft, radiator & headlight...

About time I updated this. On the test drive I found the dished wheel too close so I swopped it for this which is much better I then finished the extinguisher plumbing and all cables. Then padded the cage. Then booked in for an evening session at Cadwell park to finally test the beast...

I bet. You didn't lose on it though did you?

Looks like a great laugh. Would love to do one of these trips sometime in my R.

Another vote for Tom. That's my orange cage!

This is awesome!!

I don't see what the problem is here? They look as you'd expect after some track time.

Got half an hour this afternoon so I locked up, Chucked the trade plates in, went to the petrol station, filled her with super and went off to find some country roads to have a spirited 'test drive'. All I can say is wow! I love this car already, I can't wait to drive it in anger on a track...

Few more bits done. Extinguisher is now all plumbed in, one outlet to the engine bay and one to the drivers seat. I forgot to take a picture of this. I then carefully removed all the unused brackets from inside, every little helps. I then gave it a clean inside and out. Just waiting...

Nobody who can shed some light?

Tackled the front brakes today, new discs, ds pads, good ridge braided lines and race fluid. Then ended up with these codes to sort......

A few updates. I removed the steering lock, bypassed the immob and fitted the solid state electrical cut off's and extinguisher pull cables inside and out. I made a panel to house everything. Then tested my new ramp out at work... Then tackled the rear exhaust rubbers

Hoping someone may be of help? Currently turning my 182 into a track car, fully stripped, etc. See project section. I'm nearly there but thought I'd plug it in just to check for any stored codes as it's a little lumpy. Obviously the airbag and service light are on but I also have some other...
