just bought a cup

[lee calthorpe]

Hi guys ,

Just purchased my first cup well pick it up on sat.
The car is going to be used for doing track Recci's before my sprint season starts , i run a 750hp subaru impreza but just want a cheap car to learn lines of new circuits before events start.

I have been told the car has a noisy dephaser pulley wheel and the steering rack mounts need changing (advisory on MOT )and a slight misfire when its hot !!

Are these easy fixes on these fantastic little cars.

Cheers Lee

Dephaser is about £100. Have the belts been done?

Misfire when hot, probably a coil, plugs or leads. Oh and more importantly pics of Impreza please

 

[lee calthorpe]

Belts have been done mate but obviously not changed pulley at the same time alot who dont know cars just do what is required instead of thinking ahead
I will try and take with me new plugs leads and a coilpack just in case .

Oh Pictures of race car on there way !

Cheapest place I found for the dephaser was on eBay. I work in the car trade and couldn't get it any cheaper. Get your self signed up as a member be the best £12 you will spend mate

Renault wolverhampton for depahser. I made a decent order for my rebuild and got the dephaser for a bargin.

You could say that just having nos fitted for this years sprints 0/60. 1.8sec

 

[imprezaworks]

0-60 in 1.8?

 

[lee calthorpe]

On launch from standing start 0-60 1.8 sec it's mental mate

Edit; just looked at the pics and at a recent track day you and another guy were the talk of the day! They saw your car at a sprint up at Castle Combe.

(Unless there's another guy with a classic scoob that's mentally fast with a massive rear wing on it??)

 

[lee calthorpe]
