Thanks mate. I thought about it a while ago if there are any awesome trackdays in the UK to visit. any ideés?

Hahah thanks mate..`??! The long Winters thats make us "speciall" maybe!!?

CrOwSoN15

Plenty of good events you could bring it to, however I know what you Swedes are like when it comes to getting the back end out! Unfortunately not many events like that here
We need our own Gatebil!

bitter_

Okay thats to bad because you got alot of great tracks and a great drift series! There should be intresse in this kind of trackdays ?

You guys would have to come to Sweden or norway Gatebil insted then

Are you from skogenracing.com ?

Never mind about the requst on Stack instrument. I got an good offer on a set VDO from one of my dealers.

Also finiched up the pipes to en heater. Not very happy how it ended up but will change this in the future.

That's one thing I noticed, in some pics it has a turbo and in others its NA.

Why not just build it with the turbo ?

Great work BTW, I wish I had the skill to do it

great project!!

boy-racer-1

out in sweden do they make welding and fabrication a compulsory subject in primary school or something? cant believe how many threads i see from someone in Sweden and they all do their own fabrication and welding, 90% of people here have to pay for a supra rear diff conversion, but out there you just get a bit of metal chop it about add a few welds and wallah a different diff fits!

bitter_

Thats right the plan was that from the begining and had been possible to registrat with at the Swedish car inspection, later on I tought it would be easyer to just finnish up the body and save the Money for a proper Engine build later on. Then for about a month ago the Swedish Car inspectors took away the rule that made it possible to registrate turbo converted Engines. But will ofc build me a proper Engine later on any way

coulde be that the swedes on this forum are few an that they maybe see there Projects worthy Passionford

ooor coulde bee that Everything in sweden regarding cars are expensive and if you are able to do something your self you do that.

Learning by doin

Like this, my first big car build

adam151082

Awsome, truely Awsome.

Cant wait to see this come along

BigPeBe

Did I understood correctly, that it's not anymore possible to get turbocharged N/A engines through Swedish MOT? That's gotta suck.

I'm really hoping Finland is not going to follow you guys on that one.

Anyways this is definitely one project I like to keep checking on the progress.

bitter_

Correctly. But they have just stopped it for now until they have Done a investigation if they gonna keep it or not.

Just be patient mate there will be great updates in a few days

bitter_

The holidays have been productive. Gauges in Place, wired and ready. brakelines done and bleeded, throttle wire done, windscreen washer nicley hidden under the right front wing and working, windsheeld glued just enough to get it off later when its gonna be painted. The rear firewall is done, made an exit pipe in ss. Then I´ve also build a new bracket for the windsheeld wiper. Singelwiper ofc



















then a short video on the singelwiper

bitter_

Did get some buddys to help me out yesterday. ended up that we finshed the car.

Today we spent like this

bitter_

Long time since last update.

the snow went by and messed up my plans for the MOT. Then we decided to change garage to a warmer .

No a few weeks later its time to start build on the Car again .

New jdm fender flares are mounted to make it easier to install the wide Rh split rims.

Fantastic build

IainRS1700T

Love this build.
Are they Cayenne brakes maybe?

What were your impressions on your test run? Were you happy with how it went?
Iain

bitter_

Discs and calipers are from Ford Focus rs mk1.

First testrun went well the car handels well for no anti-roll bars. just minor Changes with the front alaignments and the fender flares then Im good.

I got the pics I have in the thread! The wiper it self is from an Fiat UNO and then the grinder and the weld fixed the rest

bitter_

Hi

long time since last update but now the car is done.

Passed Swedish MOT and registrated as an rebulid car with all the Changes as done.

Went home and disassembled the car immediately...

























And 5 days later

Very cool matey. I bet the back end comes out all the time.

CrOwSoN15

Bad ass.

Where's the turbo?!

bitter_

Thanks, On its way . Need to do an proper shakedown on the body and sort it out good before I start with next Engine.

bitter_

Car still running . been to the first Swedish gatebil event and it went well car work as its supposed and manage to drive the car sideways, but didnt manage to kill even one pair of tyres so have been working and starting to collect all to the turbo setup . Will start small with just 630cc deka injectors and a BW s200 Turbo. Goal is about 350-400 bhp. And Another goal is to have this running in September for the second and last Gatebil event at Mantorp Sweden.


any idees for rubbor to the leveler?

Excellent barmy build!

Cossie Sean

i really really like this build,

i love the ideas, the arches (not the wheels, sorry lol!) the colours and the build!

i once put Audi 5 cylinder Turbo engine into Sierra Sapphire

keep up the good work

Sean.

bitter_

thanks mate . found this 2 piece RH:s really cheap so just had to have them. Then it always upsets all the stance dudes when im riding sideways on track with this "irreplaceable" wheels .

The Audi 5 cylinder isnt a bad Engine at all .


Work with the turbo setup is moving along nicley. Started to strip down the car yesterday, got the manifold back from the welder also.

bitter_

Still going strong changed headgasket and mounted ARP headbolts.



manage to fix me an oil return for the Turbo in the transmisson cover.
