I had to log in to post here - just wanted to say I think your car is great mate. Really brave with those image wheels and I reckon they look awesome

Here's some snaps of my Rallye - may be some good inspiration for your project:

I was really tempted to look into getting some similar wheels to yours, they look so cool. Don't worry about the haters mate, I get a load of it for my car, but f**k them, we do it for our own enjoyment :butt:

Re: No Compromise ph1 ITB build (Fastcar, BTM, TDF, RS Fab) - ITB update p77

what are they 60mm? spose. I looked for 90s with no luck a few months back but nobody has a machine set for them, so want more £


They're from streamline carbon ^ Just noticed the picture on their website. one of those things to do last minute if the price is right I spose

Re: No Compromise ph1 ITB build (Fastcar, BTM, TDF, RS Fab) - ITB update p77

I had these custom made by streamline carbon. The bodies are 52mm genuine pug sport ones so it was a nightmare trying to get the right trumpets (I didn't have the correct ones when I bought the engine), so found a similar one by KMS and had a mold made up by streamline. Wasn't cheap though....

 

[Silent_Scone]

Re: No Compromise ph1 ITB build (Fastcar, BTM, TDF, RS Fab) - ITB update p77

no, it's not unfortunately. They told me I'd be charged the "standard price" and to send a standard ally one over for molding. Not all that bothered, but they do look nice.

Nobody, not even jenvey seem to have 48 90s on the shelf in carbon

But if you do that then those little bits could rust/go manky. I dont know how far Caged is from you but just drive there with the metal sleves and a new poly bush, then press the new sleve in and then slip the new bush in so it sits flush and then get caged to tak them in for you in that position (after you've removed the bush again)
No Compromise = No Bodging

popped down to the car, collected the little straps that go between the chassis and subframe/wishbones (as missed them the other day) and also the wishbone powerflex kit (so i had it with me), then headed over to Caged, got there and chatted to guys and they told me the stuff had already gone to be shotblasted... i said no worries and i would pop back then they insisted on taking the bush kit off me and just sorting it themselves....lol, awesome. So happy with there help / service

thank you for the very kind words mate, appreciate it, the wheels aren't that outrageous now they have proper tyres on, really really can't wait to drive it. Had a quick browse over your thread but will have a good look when i have more time, looks awesome

Love that rallye

Re: No Compromise ph1 ITB build (Fastcar, BTM, TDF, RS Fab) - ITB update p77

So whilst at tdf yesterday after taking bummer up to see his car again I spotted this Radical SR8 splitter seems to fit well at least...

I was pretty keen so offered it up to bummers bumper for sizing, I am still considering it, am only worried about clearance issues, will be having more of think

Thinking done, splitter purchased. POW

On another note, off down to work on the car again tomorrow, will be givibg the bay and underside of the engine, and anywhere else for that matter a good clean and paint, update tomorrow.

Re: No Compromise ph1 ITB build (Fastcar, BTM, TDF, RS Fab) - ITB update p77

That splitter is ace mate good call.

 

[TM.]

This looks very nice, as the title suggests, no compromise - keep it up!

 

[Nafoff]

as promised above another update is here.

today was all about tidying the bay / front under-carriage as the subframe is away being sorted. So i was armed with various paints, my autoglym engine and machine degreaser and an away of cleaning apparatus, i am not going to bore you with before and after shots of everything as there is just no point...

So front end off, including lights, tucked all wires etc out of the way and started cleaning working from drivers side across... this included all chassis bits, engine block, pipes, hoses, sump, mounts etc etc

Once i had cleaned all i then set about the various painting jobs,
first up was the cross member, those who have been through the thread will know i cut this and welded it back together to allow more room for the airbox, also as the car will be going a different colour i didn't want this showing through so it was treated to a coat of satin black, next up was in and around the engine bay, some touch ups of paint on the block, then a nice coat on the gearbox mount all with VHT paint.

and then lastly with a nice thick brush and a tin of hammerite smooth i got to work painting the inner arches, as mentioned this car will be going a different colour so i don't want the old titanium coming through in the arches, hammerite smooth is perfect for this and will be easy to clean off, happy days and job done..

and here she is waiting for the subframe to come back....

i will also give the brakes another coat after i have fitted the new carbon lorraines, then the rear beam will also get a coat before the ARB goes on.... but thats for another day.

 

[bomber]

ive nailed your splitter to my wall, some cheap art for me, expensive for you!!








No, seriously, I have

 

[Nafoff]

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I should cry, but i really find it quite funny

 

[Tony Hunter]

Its alright he used grip fill.

 

[bomber]

Shouldn't worry, it's through a fixing hole and got the rough side down

 

[Gray]

I thought he wanted the rough side showing?

Smooth and laquered carbon is soooo last year

[Nafoff]

Well atleast your garage will experience better downforce now, will look a little prittier too

 

[Nafoff]

picked up a load of various stainless bolts yesterday for the airbox / ITB assembly so will possibly be re-assembling that in the very near future, once that is done the engine assembly can all go back together and i can get it running again..... oh yeah needs an exhaust now though

 

[Gray]

keep up the good work

 

[Silent_Scone]

good stuff

 

[harribo66]

[chrispy.clio]

If the sump was shallower the while bottom of the Clio could be flat, stupid sump been the lowest point
