Got the first stage from West Cork uploaded last night , taking it very easy on a very bumpy and slippy first stage , didn't want to crash out that early , thought i'd wait till the end of the 3rd stage lol ! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXiv-TVbM6M

Yes got all the stages , as you know being a live base the videos can't go public , if you pm me your address I'll burn them onto a disc and post it to you

No SWR says the gearbox will take more power than mine , I am on the limit of the torque the box will take , it seems diff related to me as I had a similar problem with my Golf which turned out to be diff bearings , so we'll see. I would put the missed gears down to me as 99.9% of the time its...

was going ok until the gearbox broke on the last stage , it started making some loud noises then jammed in third dropping us about a minute and a half and dropping us down the order. The first stage I hit a curb and bent the rear beam slightly , then did the same in exactly the same spot on the...

Its all in the thread , 242 hp , you'll have to search the engine spec sorry

Yes I have some incar , but having trouble cropping it and uploading it at the moment , should be done in the next couple of days , the car is fixed and i'm doing caerwent tomorrow , A certain someone is out in his new 2.5 Escort so I though why not lol

Yes if he sends them to me , address on my website i'll do it for him www.godspeedbrakes.co.uk

Yes you can , we have done this many times and its never failed to work Cheers Ian

I clipped a wall breaking the steering , couldn't get it fixed in time , think we were around 29th before going out , was taking it a bit too steady on the first stage , we only finished 3 stages

I'm competing on the west cork rally and have hit a wall and snapped the track rod , can't find one locally for sale , any members on here that can ? i can fix it and compete in the trophy rally tomorrow. anyone has one ring me on 0044 7837 381608 , we are in clonakilty but can come and collect...

Im back :D Had a great day yesterday , didn't start off too well as I did the first leg on the wrong tyres , went out on super soft slicks but it was too slippy and greasy and dropped loads of time , was 85th after the first stage ! Got back into service and fitted wets , the Hankook wets work...

Just about done now bar fitting my new camera , my old one kept switching itself off so have bought a GoPro hero 3 so need to make an adapter to fit my roll cage mount. Fitted some new discs last night as my old ones were starting to crack , got in some of the new Ferodo Uno pads to try which...

On road tyres it lights them up in first and second ! it was on rally tyres in the vid , although they were cold , and it was still lighting them up slightly in second

Just about finished the car today , just needs a spanner check , fitting the sump guard and having the tracking done , managed to set up the flat change today , its been a pain but got there in the end , gave it a little try around the est today...

Hi Finally got it 99% finished , had some electrical issues and it lost its spark , think it was a wiring fault on the back of the ecu , the electrician came up to test it and said it was ok , so was onto DTA who said it couldn't be an issue with the ECU so was piggy in the middle for a while ...

Yes it vibrates quite a bit , that's the noise you can hear on my in car video's

I have one you can borrow if you want to see if it fixes the problem just in case it's not that at fault

we are making a tank so it fits nicely in between the back of the N/S headlight and the strut tower

exactly ! what crap ? Its only engine oil that can come out under extreme conditions , which will be caught by the catch tank and make its way back to the sump , there will be no crap in it , as Fred said it will be fully sealed bar the small type K&N type filter which will vent any pressure...

My car with fuel but no pessengers is 920kg

Getting somewhere with the car now , just finding time is tricky at the moment as I'm so busy in work , I have modified the breather plate on top of the engine , have drilled it and fitted a second breather , the original one is still there , so will pipe the 2 breathers to a catch tank we are...

Im thinking of doing Epynt instead of west cork as there is such a good entry it would be good to go up against them. im trying to get the car ready for pembrey next Sunday , I'm also doing the wyedean rally on Saturday in my golf , as well as running a business I'm struggling to do it all at...

yeah plenty of time , but it somehow always seems to creep up on you lol I'm doing the Wyedean rally on the 9th Feb in my Golf , and Pembrey on the 10th in the Clio :D

Got the car back from the electrician last night so did some more work on it today to finish off all the bitty jobs , its the little jobs that seem to take the time , made a plate to fit onto the rocker cover to hold the coil and the can for the front O/S suspension , filled the engine with...

Even if it did have a turbo , I bet they would still be closely matched , the turbo car would be quicker on the straights but I reckon the NA car would be quicker in the bends allowing for lag

I cannot fit a turbo for the class i'm in rallying , if I did I would be in the same class as all the WRC cars , now some i'll beat , but not all of them ;)

Easy peasy to get tidy power out of them , 242hp and 178lb ft , haven't added the bill up but will end up £6k to £7k by the time it's all finished lol

Luckily we have contacts and got a service sticker from one of the teams that gets you anywhere , although I was surprised they let us drive the wrong way into the stage as far as we did , turned out perfect in the end as we had a good spot to watch ( pity the watching bit was cr4p ! ) which had...

We only watched the saturday stages , although we had some passes we couldn't get to the top of the turini as we didn't have snow chains so the police wouldn't let us up all the way , so we went to the stage after , can't remember the name , but we drove in the finish and drove about half way in...
