lol :)
Ohh quite differently to what I thought then lol! Right so I need to get a PH1 pickup then, also a different pump for it you mean? Also a regulator?
Do you know if the fuel pipe connectors on the PH1 pick up will take the -6 pipe mate? I would go measure but the car is dangling on axel...
Fuel System:
Please remember I don't have a clue about a lot of this stuff so looking for some help please :)
While re-doing the loom I am going to be sorting another thing on the car which is the fuel supply system as it the high pressure pump will need power I guess.
I currently have a...
As Chip says I haven't found forged with standard comp but if going down the forged route then will also up the comp for the giggles ;)
Think I have a plan for the head already although tossing a few things around in my head but need to speak with Mr BTM when he gets back from his jollys
No...
Yes Mark as you say very confusing! I will call Roll centre/TDF and sort out the certificate as I do need it and will also enquire about modifying it :)
Not sure yet Mike, I have an idea of what I would like but Fred know's more than me about these engines so final spec will be left upto him and then I will see if it is affordable :)
I'm selling a cat-back Ktec Ultra that has come off my race car was a very nice sounding system, I would say the Ultra without the silencer is the loudest as it's a 2.5" bore
No :(, I was supposed to be given a folder with everything in but never happened! Will get onto it tho :) Roll centre do have the ability to do all that though
Haha lol
^^^:star:
There was only a dot of paint on one of the ARP's the rest were blank
Yes Mark done to spec and then Roll centre are one of the few who can self certify! I will give them a call and see what they say (Will laugh if they say they didn't do it lol)
Interesting about yours, I spoke to K-tec and Custom cages months before the car went to TDF and they said if I...
Yeah I know crazy mate!
Car is 940ish dry (No fuel)
Haha I know! Yes I think so, Don't know if anyone remembers but someone asked me to take photos of the BTB. I got the photo's but Matt had seen someone asking for them on the forum and asked me not to put them up because TDF and BTB were...
Yes that was another option we talked about! Ohh yeah couldn't be happier than what I have now but it's just another one of the things thats been changed! The only outstanding stuff I can think of that hasn't been changed is the shell and the steering wheel
Yes this is just the start mate!!
Mine wasn't BTB mate lol! I was told it was BTB by TDF but it was just a K-tec exhaust that fit really badly and had the tailpipes chopped off for the *BTCC sliding tailpipes* (Read Halfords tailpipe trims)
I have seen BTB's work mate and it is very good indeed! For me though it had to be...
Take some photo's if you can mate and I will help you out all that I can got one on my car and is a perfect fit so it's probably just how you've lined it up with the cat
Haha yes I bet Fred and Zoltan could get a cage welded in an hour if it was an emergency lol!
It supposedly Roll centre but the exhaust was supposed to be BTB originally so who knows ;) It was also apparently only 44KG's but the amount of pipe in my car and the thickness of the CDS I guess it's...
Yeah this is what I keep coming back to mate and why I now just want to do what I have to in order to race next year instead of going overboard like I want to lol
Yes I think the reliability is better now and the setup I have got a plan for :)
Driver change definitely needs the practice lol!
Haha yes it is very true! Tried before and failed but we will see :) For now I will focus on the car lol
I don't know what the car is worth but I doubt it's far off that tbf! Normally my budgeting is spot on but that is when I know what i'm doing, this is another ball game as I was clueless so...
The money is crazy to do it properly Sam! That's what I wanted to do and then the shell is ready for years to come but ask Fred when you see him how much I said it will cost! It's nuts :(
Reg's dont allow us to get them mate :(
It's just the weight saving by swapping cages that appealed to me and that is easier on a new shell but yeah too much hassle! Yes that is in progress as we speak Dan the clio doesn't even resemble a car anymore now lol
Ahh yes :) I thought could sell and remake been lighter and not cost any extra than the sale but after chatting with a few people it would cost a fortune more on top :(
Cage is very heavy yes, it is however very strong but in hindsight some of it isn't required and also has been done in large diameter CDS tube, the bigger the diameter then the wall has to be thicker so consequently its a heavy bugger! Other ways to reduce weight are composite panels and...
Thought about selling the shell but again sell the shell and would still need more money spending on another shell on top of what I sell it for so going to keep this one and just work through my list of jobs on the car as and when I can afford to! Fingers crossed that is in time for next season
Yes exactly mate and what it's now worth as a car isn't what it would cost to start from scratch again if it got written off so its a really difficult one!
Yes I think you are right about mechanical vs bodywork stuff but as you say would be difficult to make work overall
No mate basically I budgeted to spend X and the total that I have spent on the car and running it is 7 times X I haven't totted it up for a while though so could be even worse
Haha he certainly does!
Yes mate I certainly want to but would be difficult to work out what would be fair due to the...
