Saw it at SMRC today. Looked very much worse for wear on the front and driver's side then it blew up crossing the line to win the first race. Charlie said it was the engine, packed up and went home.

I'm no expert but the amount of oil it threw down and the amount of smoke it threw out...I don't think it was just a turbo.

Andrew,

Bit long winded but i need to make sure i get the right ones,

Those uprights, i take it they (type) are whats needed for the 106?

The set on the left being original grpa (5 bolt) items for the front, and the right wrc but machined to suit 2wd bearings (8 bolt) for rear?

Im purchasing soon but could you check (the pair i dropped off) to see if i have already 1 grpa item (5 bolt) and 1 wrc (8 bolt)? i think thats what i dropped off, they were a odd pair but both used on front.

Also would i be possible to run the pair on the right wrc (8 bolt) on all 4 corners and do away with the grpa items on the front, would my front Flanges still be usable for that?


Also do you think a Escos pro alloy 65mm core inter and rad, turbo cooler setup will fit the 106 front end size wise? basically the same as marcs fez but bigger core version?

Cheers Robert

is there any chance of the ag mob attending at least one event of TA this year? im friggin sick of these know it all top jap tuners racing round with no competition, I know the blue focus's couldnt compete against them but it was just so satifying watching them clock faster times than them!!!

Just the sign of the times mate, Cossie's don't have the same worldwide rep the Jap counter parts do. Retarded I know, but at least we all know what the Ford crew can acheive. Personaly I'm not fussed, TA started out as a public contest and now its quickly become a contest for those that turn up with company names on 2 van's full of what can best be described as one whole extra car in parts.....how can the common man compete

Too right, I didn't mean it in a negative way, made a nice change that year as I don't think there have ever been any Fords seriously taking on the big boys.
