SEE NEW PICS AT BOTTOM

Well, me and Ratty have spent 2 days putting the engine in, fuel system, sorting electrics, all thats left to do is a bit of pipe work and put in 2 new seats and harnesses.
Bloody knackard but cant wait to get on track

What do you think like it or hate it

Trying to make it for Donington Open day Feb

 

That is very.

Whats the spec on it?

 

old skool cool jase,pukka little cars.bit fugly but go well.

 

nice old school

should be a laugh on track

 

what sort of power do you reckon it is...i know nothin about mystro's (sp) to tell you truth i dont think ive even looked under the bonnet of one

 

British Leylands Finest .

2.0 Turbo running Rover Twin Carb set up, pushing 1.4 Bar on a moddied T3, leda suspension, 750KG around 250bhp which is about 330bhp per tonne.
Has full FIA cage, Seats and Harnesses and rover 220 LSD box, 4 pots up front and Leyland Daf drums on rear

Runs a good sized intercooler as you can see, and its a 8v so good torque

 

It was built for a laugh, its also known as

THE GOONEY BUS

 

SIB, may hit you for some tyres buddy, some R888s

 

cool project mate

 

isnt that all going to get a bit complicated with two plenum chambers?

I'm building a turbo mini which is similar to the std maestro turbo set up (single hif44, plenum etc)

 

Good choice my man, and nice ride

Be good to see that go - I prob won't be at the track day (although I'm going to try and get there with something!)

Looking well!

Si

 

You know what I think Jase

Can't wait for a ride, or a go!

 

looking at croft weekend with Dingy, and hopefully if space bristol and swindon

 

surprising cars, huge engine potential, I remember when Andy Nichols used to race his before the MG

www.an-racing.co.uk

 

very cool

 

liking that one 500bhp

 

Booking Coombe on 10th March and RS Day, also may do Croft if space left, we may also look at doing a local hill climb but need to look at what the regs are, i know we need a competition license for that

 

you can't use that name - the real world famous goonybus has been around much longer









besides, it's a 5 door hatchback, in what way is that a bus?

good laugh though

 

thats cool as fuck

 

Twin Su's

Lots of fun to be had trying to get that fucker to fuel right then

 

 

that aerial is well funny, childish but very funny

 

looks cool mate, remember when u first sent me pictures of it.

will have to see it some time

 

Tell us about it, we are taking a single carb incase we cant get it right

 

Looks good, I like it

 

Bite me

Its called the Gooon cos we where called a pair of Gooon's for starting the project in the first place

It handles like one

Cheers

 

, dont say that Ratster that suspension new was Ł1000, glad we paid no where near that infact a 1/4 of that

PMSL

 

We got seats



This weekend is scavenging time at the local scrappy for edis components and throttle bodies as the megasquirt ecu is built and there is the possiblity of completing the log awaited switch to efi before March

 

A few more pics for you, still a couple of little jobs to do but its 99% finished

 

fooking game on

 

had a montego turbo for the track ,the thing used to fly for about 10mins then overheat

its nickname was coMONTEfuck

 

get it MSA logbooked and get competing!

 

Tickford bumpers aswell

 

Thats one of them cars that people point at and giggle because your sat right up the arse of some fast cars

They were a very quick car on the road , so should suprise quite a few when on the track

Great car mate , would like to see this myself pushing a cossie or 2 round the track

 

Cheers Buddy, i hope so, got some testing days coming up

Its 200bhp and 800kg

Cant wait now

 

Or 950kg with Jase in it

Sorry bud couldn't resist

We cained old Montego on a couple of track days and it didn't blow up!
