Looking really nice Nige, really looking forward to seeing it in germany
|
At last Twistybit's sorted had it back to Jr motorsports today as i couldn't get the car to work for me. Jimmy the star worked his magic & straight away it felt fantastic. Will now leave it alone. Oh yes it went on the dyno & made 372bhp & 345ftlb torque @ 1.7bar dropping to 1.5bar pump fuel. They say there is another 30/40bhp to come if i fit 800 injectors + a Bosh 044. To be honest once i get up to speed with the way it's now handleing do i really need any more? :drive:
|
You know you do Nige.:yeah::yeah:
I bet your a happy bunny now.:five: |
Blinding stuff mate :yeah:
I think it's sorted at those kind of figures. Good job mate. :cool: |
It's just about there now very very hapy with the twisty's :drive:
|
Thought i would put this up. It may look odd it's just the way the last pull was done. You sit at 3000rpm floor it then when you get to a certain speed it lets you go.

Car went bang
When out with James Rumsey owner of Jr motor sport & my car went BANG!
After looking straight down at my oil pressure gauge that was reading fine dumping the clutch {all done in a millisecond} We popped the bonnet took a quick look. Nothing to see so set of back to the garage with a very loud metalic noise going on Once covers were off we could see the clutch & housing on the air con pump were adrift. Further inspection showed moulting metal & filings in & around the pump area. The whole lot pipework pump bottle rad is contaminated with metal filings. To replace with new would be over 2k so for now i will remove it. The belt will be replaced with an Rs belt so can be put back on the road cheep. I hope this is the last bad thing now as Germany isn't to far off. I also hope it wont be as hot as last year :drive: |
**** mate, thats awful luck :sadnod:
How long will it be out of comission for? Thats a funny looking graph by the way, looks like a road dyno graph? |
I know it's weired the other graphs are ok. I thought i would put that one up as it was me in the car & they were trying out some of the dyno's extras out. This one held you back for what seemed like an age even with your foot down. Once you reached a pre set speed off you went. It also has settings for drag cars,it is a clever thing. My car will be back on the road today if i can get hold of this Rs belt. :drive:
|
Cool stuff mate.
Lets hope you are back up and running today then matey :yeah: |

|

You are in good hands there mate. Was a pain that I never knew your car was on the stand Sunday at TA. I was standing there for ages too, due to them firing up one of the FIA monsters. |
