Mate's on about selling his now. Wasn't too keen on having to fork out £3k for a new engine if his went pop.
Still like them. I've driven his and the only real complaint is that it's a bit gutless when you move off. But other than that, it's great. As above, dat gearbox! I also just love cars...
Yeaaaah, having done sprints and done autosolos, sprints are REALLY not worth it! Try hillclimbs which are much the same except it can be as little as 20 seconds on track!
I would just get the old ones cleaned up, or source some new ones.
Every time I've seen aftermarket wheel nuts I've always felt they were a bit out of place.
I've not been in here in a while... f**king hell, that's a sorry state. Unacceptable.
Hopefully the water hasn't caused any electrical headaches. Best of luck getting it going again.
Well, the thread title lead to a bit of an anticlimax.
The current plans for the engine sound OK but I wouldn't bother with any of the 'if I had the money' goals. Essentially you're going to be hard up against the law of diminishing returns by that point.
1320video is great too. Silly 1000+ bhp dragsters racing on the strip and the street. Many, many Gallardos and GTRs knocking into 2000bhp, plus Drag Week coverage, and recently they've been to Sweden (epic) and Oz too.
For example:
You on about the EK version and not the hybrid I take it? I've been eyeing up the hybrid as I don't want to put in an entire loop just for the card, and want to get heat out of the case with limited clearance at the front of the card.
This was one of my first meets, my 1.2 is near the front with the sunroof.
In fact, at CSS 2011/2012 (I forget which year), I was the one leading the convoy of god knows how many cars, 30 odd at least, to the campsite in the evening. In the same 1.2.
I miss that car!
