No mate, ordered from my work... £240 had to wait a while for red ones to come back in stock as they had ran out. Like you say they look mint!

Cheers @105e

300mm discs and pin kit here, I'll take them up to be machined later! Woop

 

[incy-spider]

PMS brackets and brake lines came today, just waiting on my mates to machine my discs and I can fit it all, looks sexual!

 

[dann2707]

Sexy

 

[incy-spider]

Why, thank you!!

 

[incy-spider]

Looking into a Torsen diff and found out that PMS are now supplying Sachs race clutches so don't have to get that from Germany now...

So finally will be able to skat the shitty helix clutch over the hedge and slap a LSD in at the same time without having to sell my body for funds!! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

 

[incy-spider]

Diff ordered yesterday, looking at mid November for delivery!! Got to get it done before April, we are off to the ring again.... This time for my own stag do! Only a need to fit Brembos, diff, clutch..... Oh and get a civic turbo ready with @DV8 finish off the mk2 golf gti 20vt and hopefully my mate will have his Honda integra finished with the K24 engine turbocharged!!

So not a lot to do

 

[incy-spider]

It's here!!

Will that setup and 280mm discs fit under speedline 2118's off a cup racer?? Only those brakes look absolutely mint!!

 

[incy-spider]

I believe so... I'm sure someone will know for sure??

 

[incy-spider]

New clutch came today... See ya later Helix crap!

I ordered pinball machine parts from Holland and got 2 packs of Haribo, what's with that? Wasn't complaining though as I have a sweet tooth!:smile: Car looks awesome Incy, a lot of impressive work, I enjoyed reading the whole thread:up:

Just need to find some time to fit the £££££ of mods!!

Gearbox time... Have wondered how to go about fitting my new LSD without taking my car off the road for too long as I need it everyday!

Recently bought a secondhand box off of a chap in Newquay who was breaking his track 182, this was to fit into my mums 182 as hers crunched into 3rd and for £40 was worth a gamble, turns out it's perfect for her...

So this leaves me with a fairly knackered gearbox to use, anyway pulled it apart to find 3rd gear dog teeth knackered, syncro rings worn and the reverse hub so a fair spend needed to get it working with seals and extras on top, but think I'm going to pursue with it so that I know it's going to last and won't potentially need to do it in the future with my own box which is mint at the mo and looks brand new!!

knackered!!!

Started cleaning casing on old box to allow it onto my car, still more to do don't have a before pic but looked like a piece of shite!!

Will post up once I am putting back together with all new shiny bits and the LSD

 

[incy-spider]

Oh and big thanks so far to @NorthloopCup for advice

Progress..

Have replaced a worn 2nd gear syncro thanks again to @NorthloopCup for the part as they are like rocking horse shite to get hold of!!

Next up I took my diffs out to the garage today to get the crown wheel off the old diff and machine slots for fitment to the new LSD..

While the machine did the milling we played a bit with the K24 turbo build, took some pics because I likes it..

And bingo, we have slots.. Hell of a tool, everyone should have a machine worth more than a house in the garage...

Cooking up the crown wheel ready to slip on the cold diff left out on exmoor to cool...

And done

 

[incy-spider]

Diff is in, had a bit of a clearance issue in the hex bolts on the LSD so had to shave the edges off, but nothing serious..

LSD is now fitted into casing and preload all set up with genuine Renault washers which vary in increments of 0.05 but feels spot on... This job is taking a while due to funds but getting there, good thing to bear in mind when someone says 'put an LSD in' there is a bit more to it than that if you are doing it right!!

New parts came today, 3rd gear, 3rd gear syncro ring and reverse hub... Doesn't dhow how fucked the old parts were on the pics but they are screwed!!

Got it all fitted between jobs..

 

[incy-spider]

New cogs!!

Had to buy a new shifter fork as the original was missing a plastic cap..

New shifter bushes going in and seal to stop potential leaks...

Old ones...

New seal....

Reassemble time..

It's complete now so next need to find some time and drash un eeeen!!

 

[marinemackay2003]

Lovely bit of box building, and some nice bits of machinery to hand there, always nice to have to hand

 

[incy-spider]

Cheers mate, yeah really handy mates to have, got my box out today! Finally had a gap in the workshop and a guy off so a spare ramp can't be missed!

Also turbo still looking new

[emoji7]

 

[GrahamS]

Although I've been following this for quite a long time I've just been a silent observer.
Really have done a cracking job on the car, one of only a few people who haven't done a drive in drive out boost build which is great to see. Much inspiration to progress to boost but hopefully without the manifold nut issue!

Hats off.

 

[JKING3008]

Great build!
Which lsd did you go for?
Cheers

RSX racing solutions one, look them up on Facebook, nice stuff!

 

[incy-spider]

So just removed the clutch to replace with my new Sachs performance clutch and the old helix is in a bit of a state to be honest,

Down to the rivets already and it's only done 12k tops although there was a nürburgring ring trip on it too it's pretty crap IMO so not only has it been making annoying sounds from day one it turns out it's made of cheese too... Haha! Luckily I have a spare flywheel as its chewed that up a bit too. JUNK!!

 

[GrahamS]

I remember reading ages ago about the turbo nuts coming loose. Looked like a right pain to just tighten them up with the clearance.

Ah yes, been there done that, with Heico locking washers and some bracing they aren't coming off again!!!

 

[incy-spider]

So box is back in, few odds and ends sorted too.. Found a melted wire behind the heat shield that explains why I have had a random flashing brake warning light coming on!! It was the level sensor cable, rewired that and relocated so happy I spotted it! Little water leak on the coolant hose on the turbo needed a new clip, new rear main oil seal fitted too. Subframe back on tomorrow after new arms are fitted and should be back in action with mega traction!!

Top work looks good. I had the same issue on mine with melted wires behind the turbo for the abs pump earth and brake fluid level

Yeah, I'd imagine their is a few out there like it!

 

[cs_dave]

I agree with the helix clutch mine done around 11k was slipping bag of s**t

 

[cs_dave]

Sachs clutch in mine now

 

[incy-spider]

Mine didn't slip yet but was only a matter of days looking at it, the Sachs is a pleasure to drive so far, pulling away is sweet now... No noises, dragging and all the other shite that came with the helix. Happy!!

 

[Laine_16v]

Wish i got 12k form my helix, i didnt even see half of that :tonguewink:

Sachs clutch looks interesting, but will it do 360ft lb?, im guessing unfortuantely not
