Re: Dave.'s Cammed, 2118'd Carbon obsession

when i have them on we need to meet up being so close mate, have a bodies bark off lol

be interesting to compare set ups too! yours will be much quicker i imagine though with all the weight removed!


You may have to come to my house for a bark off as my car may not come back on the road lol.

If i can get it MOT'd then it be on the road but if not then it'll be trailored places.

Since having the salty roads the wheel bolts are looking shocking! So given them a going over with some black engine lacquer. I doubt it will stay on well when doing them up, but gotta be better than rusty shite!!

In regards to the above comment, is it fine to get bolts chemically blacked?

No none on the threads mate!! Just the heads of the bolts, I'm a numpty but not that much of one

Yes I is numpty :p

I'll get the sand paper out! I guess they won't tighten properly if there is paint there

I think the paint gives over time and they can come lose. You can buy them plastic caps if you want to tart them up, or get them chemically blacked like I'm going to do.

Sand them well...I learned this the hard way at Goodwood.

Freshly painted wheels including where the bolts seat, a few sessions/heat cycles and no re-torqueing of the wheel bolts meant I had to limp back to the pits with a very loose wheel. Was lucky I didn't lose it completely at 100mph+. All four bolts could be undone with fingers!!!

Sounds good Dave.

I will be following this thread closely, as this is the route I'd ideally like to go down with my bus.

Re: Dave.'s Cammed, 2118'd Carbon obsession

it lasted about 3 weeks until i was fed up with it, i thought it would be fun but was a bit chavvy for me, and it drank fuel and killed a lambda!

I have posted this in the wanted section:

Hi guys can anyone lend me a set of injectors for a 182 for about two weeks??

I'm looking to get my set ultrasonically cleaned prior to it going for ITB's.

Beer will be provided!

You'd think it'd be a good idea being as they'll be running at like 99% duty lol

But I bet you it'd make f**k all difference ;)
