RX8, God no. The same poor economy as the 7 but without the boost to warrant it? Sod that. Plus it looks like a crack smoking Pokemon.

No thanks. Mate has a DC5, best Vtec I've driven (also driven an EP3 and FN2) but it's not for me. 850R T5 in BTCC spec?

I don't have the time to dedicate to cars really anyway. When you're working 12 days solid a fortnight, doing a set of days, then nights and repeating it for the next 6 months you find time is a valuable commodity. The whole reason I didn't get the Nissan welded up was the same. The plan was...

Even once it's fixed I'm doubting if I can live with it. I'm sick of cars that I can't even have the confidence to drive more than a few miles away from home in.

Well I rebuilt it, took it for some fuel and... It's worse than it was before. Coughs and splutters on idle once warm now on top of the original misfire. Going to try and get a known working set of used coils and a known working igniter chip, and try that. Hopefully that will fix it, and...

They destroy discs within 10k miles, been there, done that. Never again.

Oh really? RWB...

Exactly, best part of £1k.

How's it done on the cup racers? You'd not need to bend into it at 90 degrees. I'll see if I can dig out a picture I took of a Ferrari setup.

I'm talking new though, not 2nd hand.

You'd have been better off getting air in from behind the stone guard/hub, so it can come out through the disc and cool the whole lot properly. More time and effort, but it's the better way to do it.

Black Cup wheels?

Depends on the width and offset, and if you can find anybody selling them in the UK. Wouldn't imagine they'll be any cheaper than £1k without tyres.

Well that's boring :(

What does the Pepsi button do?

Look epic on pretty much anything.

It's nice having good friends with decent cars. The 15 is a nice drive, stiffer standard compared to a 14a, but the chassis is braced more, and it has the Helical Diff too.

Enkei RPF1. Cost a pretty penny in man sizes.

I can drive an S15 and a 360+bhp 14a pretty much whenever I like, so it's no deal!

Not low enough really.

Sounds about right. Get new car, realise it was owned by morons previously, fix it, more breaks, fix it, more breaks, fix it/sell car or break it, repeat.

Possibly?!

It's nothing new unfortunately.

So my leads turned up today... But, they're not 10mm R100 leads. They're 8.5mm KV85 leads :rolleyes: So no progress can be made there. Not very impressed anyway as they were meant to be sent out on Friday, when they were in fact sent out yesterday. Now I have to wait for tomorrow, when...

Good choice on HSDs, loved mine on the Nissan.

Never had any issues with Magnecors before myself. They're easier to get than OEM ones too I imagine, and I bet they're cheaper. I looked at Amps last night, not going there yet, got money to spend elsewhere first. Also been looking for the wiring info, just blowing my mind looking blankly at...

They would indeed. Ah cool, so you've done it already to yours? I might get WGT to hardwire the pump as I hate poking about in fuel tanks, put a Bosch 044 in there at the same time. Yeah I noticed you'd been posting in the RC section on DW when I check for PMs. What you having done at Dragon?

Just been looking, isn't a decent thread for either TBH. I NEED pictures and a list of bits etc, I don't do electrics. You can't have the Meisters, they're all mine :p.

Well I've not read anything to that effect, so I just stuck with what the factory recommends. After all, it should be a stock engine so it shouldn't be blowing the spark out with those. We'll see what happens. I haven't done any wiring to the coils or fuel pump. First time I've ever heard of...

Good to see you've finally "finished" it. I've no doubt it'll probably get changes though.
