I bought this car nearly a week ago. After selling my race bike i thought id have a turbo project.Body wise its not to bad at all,but it has a running problem,which me and my brother in law(hitchwest) have nearly sorted out.
Let me no what you think.

 

Looks nice chap , that red is so nice polished up , what running probs did you have ?

 

Running prob was as soon as you start to go down a hill,well not even a hill,just not on a flat piece of road the car will cut out.Even if i put it in neutral it would still cut out.the wiring on it itsnt great,and its overfuelling.The fuel pump had 2 wires not connected right,and there were a few earths under the bonnet which wernt great,its got one of those fse fuel pressure regulators on it,think that could be one of the probs so i have bought a new 1(standard),just got to wait for it to be delivered.

 

 

 

Looks tidy

its getting there slowly.got a new sump gasket,rocker cover gasket,manifold gasket and a set of plugs on order which should be here 2morrow.also got a standard fuel pressure regulator on the way to try and sort the running problem out.cant wait to get it on the road and do a few shows in it and just tidy it up a little bit

 

nice ride...............

 

i will help u with that bro

 

Nice FRST

 

Is that the one which was forsale on here?

Nice car but for gods sake get rid of the bonnet blocks

 

Looking good Chris, will make a very nice car!! hope you sort the little issues out

Wirralphil, yeah I sold it mate, was a bargain in my opinion

 

any sign of the logbook yet nige.it is getting there slowly

 

Would look much better without the bonnet raisers and blacked out windows.

 

No sign yet mate, I'll give em another bell for you tomorrow chase it up, then as soon as it turns up i'll pop it down to you


Looking spot on in the pics mate, get rid of them bonnet lifters lol

 

ok cheers nige,u still got my number.....bonnet lifters are going m8,my brother in law keeps telling me to bin them off.its going to have a new sump gasket fitted 2morrow and have a look at why its still cutting out....its fuel related thats for sure,but its getting there at last

 

Yeah mate still got it

Its deffo fuel related, like I said, the lad who I brought it off said the fueling problems started when he put that new rail on with the different regulator on, so its gota be sumit to do with that!

Hope its an easy fix for you mate! Cars looking well anyway

 

Love these cars mate.

 

good luck with the run to work in the morning i will listen out for you in the morning mate

 

well i think iv sorted the running problem with it.the fuel cut off switch kept cutting the fuel off so it wouldnt run.iv also put a second hand fuel pressure regulator on it but dont know if there is enough fuel getting in now.how do i sort this problem out.it has been drilled out so you can adjust the amount of fuel.any help would be appreciated

 

came up nice and shinny mate.i wouldnt mind another frst

 

very nice mate

 

Looks tidy, loving the standard wheels.

 

cheers for the comments guys
