be interesting to see this next as the mods keep coming

romfordrst88

Vents fitted , roof scoop in makes a big difference

PaulinhoT

Oh loving the vents and SO want to do this to mine was it easy ?

romfordrst88

Errr wasn't that bad as it goes but I did have Dave twin do it so was easy for me lol

romfordrst88

finally got round to changing the brake line before long trip to Holland in a couple of weeks lucky I did as when I was bleeding the pipes one of the main cooper pipes had corroded and split so quickly got one made and replaced it








It hate to be the one that run up and behind the fuel tank

arkeye

Few noob questions but what is the purpose of the roof scoop? Does it increase air pressure inside the cabin and create downforce? And where is the most correct place to fit bonnet vents so they're most effective? (Without the obvious 'on the bonnet' ��)

where did you get this from?

romfordrst88

The scoop is to let air in to the car as you don't get much from the slider on the polycarbonate windows, vents where mounted there as I've still got bonnet resses with clips to be fitted , I got the battery holder from eBay and the 250amp breaker

romfordrst88

Not much been done on it at the moment putting new Lower front arms on this weekend ready for track day on 2ndnovember at brands hatch , got few plans looking at few more carbon bits and starting shopping list for new engine

Gadget

Look forward to seeing it more as it develops. Going to try and get up to Brands for the PF track day, always a good turn out of interesting cars

romfordrst88

There should be few good bits in the pipe line , do change front arms and haven't really looked at the engine to much I had a small oil leak so I replaced the rocker cover but couple weeks went bye and still had a leak and didn't have a proper look but on closer inspection the sump was fucked lol so wiped that of and fitted a new one not genuine as only to get me out of trouble for little while

T666 FRS

Much better! The sumps seem to rust really bad on these for some reason. Going to try and get my RS one changed out over winter.

romfordrst88

Its to do with the heat from the exhaust makes the metal in the sump react and start rusting

romfordrst88

Few picks of first track day got flagged once for over driving but other than that I stayed on track lol

PaulinhoT

All looking really good

What was it like on track.

Was it quick enough for the track.

romfordrst88

It went really well handles good on corners just needs a bit more on the straights I'm looking in to things at the moment and a cnc head with new cams and fuel pump upgrade is what I've got in mind and a lighten flywheel to get rid of the dual mass crap

nevsrevs

Stick a blower on it, can get a cheap 280bhp with the motor you got already

romfordrst88

I was thinking of putting one on but was undecided

romfordrst88

Little update on the car haven't been on here while few things have changed I've change battery to smaller gel one and fitted a d-cat and new exhaust all the way through , all just ordere some bits which should be good for track

PaulinhoT

"Some bits" sounds interesting

romfordrst88

I've bought a m factory lsd also a solide flywheel and a stage two clutch is on its way going to get it all fitted ready for Combe and if thing go to plane head will be machined and on

PaulinhoT

Now that does sound good should make a huge difference

The Underdog

Nice. Looking forward to seeing it at combe.

romfordrst88

Didn't realise how long it's been since I did a update a lots happened really







So gearbox came out lsd fitted and a lighten flywheel and updated clutch have fitted

Also the decisions that the car is going to be turboed and I've started stripping it down ready for rebuild

PaulinhoT

Oh a nice update interested in the turbo route
