What size spiggot jobby do the Mk3 wheels have/need? Will wheels from a Mk2 fit straight on?

About as good as their chip repair kits I suspect.

There's an RS next to it, does that count?

The mounts will be the same as the standard 1.2 because it's the same engine.

If you're planning on going the whole hog then I'd recommend you do some reaing on turbos etc. I can recommend you some good helpful books if you want. Drop me a PM. I really like my TCE, I prefered it so much I bought the whole car lol!

It's the standard 1.2 engine with a tiny turbo on and mapping to suit. The Torque is pleasant on it spec on motorways etc. You'd be best getting a manifold and exhaust made to suit a small turbo and building a bolt on turbo kit than swapping the whole engine, or at least just buying the bits...

Abit run of the mill for you isn't it?

Calling it a turbo is quite optimistic when you see the size of it. You might as well wait tbh and save for a sport. What engine do you have in it now? I can't imagine a TCE engine and loom will be very cheap (I maybe wrong), prob cost the same as the extra for a sport. What are you looking...

In black with the red lip :cool:

Got Laraunce excited then saying the word gay :P Looks like another Wiltshite meet coming up soon ;)

MC12 is a little higher up the rankings don't you think? How do you get that job :(

Olly went grinding the armco just after the Folly fence. The 'Rise fence is a fair way up from where he went off. The fence doesn't go all the way down so you should be ok. It's on the left hand side of this pic: Maybe comes down as far as the 'Avon rise' sign but I was taking some pics...

When is it ever that foggy?

That just before the rise Chris?

Yep 1.4, I think it was a Rover to begin with too (well they all were I guess lol) I'm not sure how the gearbox was compiled from my understanding its the Rover/MG box with the Saxo GTi internals in it.

He wanted a reliable car more than fast one so stuck with the 160 altough he gives the 180 one a good run. He's running saxo gearbox internalls to help the gearing on it. There's the two 1400cc's and then there's 6 or 7 1600cc - 1800cc cars out there too so lots of MG's, they've superceeded...

Oh :rasp: fair enough, was going to say think he's from Holland. Never been to Rallyday might be a good laugh! Who is 'we'? :)

You aren't the Weeman with an E30 track car are you?

Just a club base Championship at Castle Combe, it's a customers car :) Jenvey ITB's and Emerald management and it's making 160bhp odd iirc (might be a couple more engine mods I can't remember), one of the guys has 180 odd from his :)

I'd advise you do ;) Looks brill mate really like it :) Grown to like these, been running 1.4 ZR Saloon racing car this year and you can get alot of N/A power from them.

Same engine ;)

it's PH ;) Love the dark shots lokks brill!

There is no point even thinking on covertiong it, may seem cool starting your car with a button but at the end of the day as long as the thing starts whats the problem?

You ask 'why not' in thread title. Because they do f**k all thats why not don't waste your time.

Um lol.... next year..ish :D! There's another lad who's also doing a rotrex build and we've been swapping lots of ideas and stuff and looking at doing a track and road double feature in one of the BMW mags :)

Really brilliant :)

Will go with my wood and glue oil filter remote head Wood tape and rattle can lid intercooler: Flimsey ali Eaton charger bracket: Wooden alternator relocation plate: And my conduit oil hoses :) All seemingly stone age but all systems have worked perfectly thanks to...

Because it would mess up the geometery and balance of the car and I'm doing this and going to have a monster ;) I picked up my C30-84 Rotrex charger. Ok so I have been designing my bracket. This is what I've come up with so far. It will be made from water cut and welded sections of...

I know a company over my way if you're able to live with out the part for a couple of days.

Whats the satnav like?
