[LewisTaylor]

Thanks mate, all i done was chop the plug off and connected to my old wires worked perfectly You lucky git! I keep looking, must of missed that one lol they are stupidly light.

 

[Rhys Beal]

Thats expensive compared to what i paid for mine

 

[Rhys Beal]

Ah I heard about you!

That doesn't happen often though does it

Is your one flame red?

 

[dmallett]

Mines iceberg silver! Yours?

Also Lewis if you get a new seat, you will have to get the white stitching on it done red to match the writing of the cobra seats! All about detail

 

[Rhys Beal]

Same mate yes. You got a place to spray it cheap?

 

[dmallett]

Not yet, havent even considered it yet! will be a while till it goes on.

 

[Rhys Beal]

I am in no rush either as I have a rather large list of things to do!

Just out of interest does anyone actually know how much they weigh?

 

[DannyR]

Not yet, havent even considered it yet! will be a while till it goes on.

Take to Rougham Body Plastics and tell them I recommended you

 

[dmallett]

6.5kg according to my bathroom scales. Standard is Near 13kg iirc.

 

[DannyR]

Weighs less than 6.5kg doesn't it? It almost floats when I lift mine!

 

[Rhys Beal]

Good little weight saving that then for little money, chuffed:approve:


Rubbed in yet Lewis............

 

[dmallett]

My scales arent that accurate lol. its under half the standard bonnet.

Danny ill try them out!

 

[LewisTaylor]

Rubbed in yet Lewis............

Pretty much all you three got alloy bonnets! lol I will one day, need a better seat as a priority

And as Danny said must be less than 6.5, i heard it was closer to 4kg, same as carbon fibre.

 

[Scott H.]

I hate reading projects like this...it makes me so jellyarse!

Awesome car tho buddy and keep up the good work!

If you was over Rhys's yesterday I could of poped over with the Bimarco's. As I said tho there not in the car yet but we cold of bolted it into yours, or sat on his bed in it, like iv been doing for the past few days

 

[Rhys Beal]

Didn't even think of that Scott. Doh!

I wouldn't have minded squeezing into one too

 

[DannyR]

All you three have RARB's and I don't

 

[Rhys Beal]

Mine is in the dining room atm, will that affect the handling of my car then?

 

[dmallett]

Going to be so fun with the 4 ph1s at track

 

[Rhys Beal]

It will indeed:approve:

All different colours too

Thanks mate I really didn't give it a thought tbh :/ would have been a good idea though, was there for about an hour.

Nice one it'll be back there in a few weeks

 

[Stu-]

Nice one it'll be back there in a few weeks

Ah really? I'm Jealous lol !

 

[LewisTaylor]

Yeah i've never been, going on 25th May for the weekend will be my first time, can't wait

 

[Stu-]

I've been twice now. Really want to go back too. You'll enjoy every second of it, just hope the weather is nice for you !

 

[LewisTaylor]

Thanks mate, grabbed a cheeky picture of the EC1

Also this came with it, looks to me like a M8 coolant temp sensor, but the 2 i've had have been plastic, and the probe at the end hasn't been as long?

 

[BIGASH]

Looking good Lewis You going to get the R upgrade from Matt or keep it standard?

 

[LewisTaylor]

Will get the upgrade

 

[tricky nicky]

Also Lewis if you get a new seat, you will have to get the white stitching on it done red to match the writing of the cobra seats! All about detail

Fairly sure Ricks other half coloured the stitching in with a red marker pen

Pretty much all you three got alloy bonnets! lol I will one day.

Could help you out with that, give me a shout when you're ready to buy 1

You are correct, doesn't look as good up close though :/ so doubt I'll spoil the recaro's, hmmm pm me how much, can collect this weekend if the price is right

 

[Ricardos]

Love this car. Seen it at the 'Ring when i was there last year.

[LewisTaylor]

Just picked this up, Thanks Nick for putting me in touch with Ross

Couldn't really say no at the price it was going for, plus you can guarantee, if I'd said no, when i want one i won't be able to find one It will be sitting in my garage for a good while now, untill i have a ph2 rear bumper and my seat rails welded in so it can all be sprayed at the same time and also have my front bumper re-done should look a minter then

 

[Rhys Beal]

Looking good now mate!
How much does it weigh do you know exactly?

 

[DannyR]

Nooooooo don't get a Ph2 rear bumper

 

[LewisTaylor]

Looking good now mate!
How much does it weigh do you know exactly?

No idea mate, i believe it's between 4 - 6.5kg.

Nooooooo don't get a Ph2 rear bumper

Why not? Much more modern... Also shouldn't you be driving?

 

[Rhys Beal]

That's what I said @ DannyR^ lol

 

[dmallett]

Ph 2 bumper no. Good find on the bonnet, knew it wouldn't be long!

 

[LewisTaylor]

Thanks mate got very lucky i think

What's so bad about the ph2 rear bumpers?? Think they lot alot tidier?

Also while we're on the subject what about a cup spoiler?? Would like another Trophy one but can't see that happening...

 

[dmallett]

Cup spoiler would be good! Ill be getting one at the time my bonnet gets sprayed.

I just like the way your car looks. And I worry a ph2 bumper would spoil it, up to you though

 

[Silent_Scone]

Ph2 bumper nooooo!
