Looks good Ron, busy time it is for you

 

thats unlike you ron

 

Good progress Ronaldo.

 

He'd want throat fucked too lol

 

Cheers everyone.



I don't know what you mean. I'm always well prepared


Mark at Mk Motorsport now has my rear beam and he will be converting it to 6 degree. Rose jointing both sides with billet adjusters. Really can't wait to get it on the car

 

Got the cage painted last night. Now I can get the screen fitted and get the inside back together.





Also got the tyres delivered. There quite wide



Dash mounted and lights in. Although I'm going to re do the lights

 

You got someone for the screen bud?

 

Fantastic car, dedication, motivation and team of friends

One of my favourite cosworth's this and i will come along to some of the time attack meets to watch and support

 

Thank you mate. I am lucky to have the amount of help I have.

That would be cool if you come along. We always camp over and have a good crack the night before

 

What size are the tyres Ronnie ?

 

Awesome Ron, hopefully I can catchup with you @ TA somewhere this yr bud.



Just been looking at pics of Gobstopper 2, very impressive

 

Coming on great Ron!

Cheers staffi

That will be cool to catch up. Yeah I'm looking forward to seeing it go now


Cheers mate

 

been doing dome bits and bobs on the car of an evening and today in the snow

windscreen is now in. also made a new centre section for the dash to house the secs monitor tyre pressure monitor and some switches.





got the internal clutch master cylinder pedal box bolted in.



had a go at the tailgate with a hole cutter



took the rear diffuser to phil at carbon delight for some larger vanes to be made up



was bloody cold today working on the car



picked the block up this week so johnyjn can start bolting that together now

rear beam should be back soon from mk motorsport so i can bolt that up.

will be planning the brake line routes this week then hel brake lines will make them up for me.

 

Looking good mate look like iv started some thing with moving the clutch cilinder inside the car lol . One thing you must think about is the way you pipe it up its more so the feed pipe to the master as getting the air out of that pipe is a pane . The way I did my cylinder was pipe it all up I then bled it up for a bit I then un bolted the master with the pipes still on and put it as low as pos so all the air went back up the pipe when that was done bolted it back up job done

 

looking good mate

 

Coley it was a good idea of yours. Thanks for that I will keep that in mind when bleeding.

Dingla can you pm me your number please.

 

been collecting parts slowly and cracking on with the car

got to say a masive thanks to matt lewis, drove to meet the man him self last sunday to collect a nice load of goodies and have a good chat



johnyjn now has all of these and is cracking on with the engine

also got this item, summit technology clubspec 4s, which is a wireless lap timer and button set up, so no wires dangling, the buttons will be programmed for pit to car radio, and maybe anti lag etc



also made my alternator cooling duct which is originally a honda F1 clutch cooling cover



got a new pair of seats from corbeau





i had to try it out



got the gearbox back from gears too, they have given it a full rebuild and hydraulic centre push clutch set up





which i got in today



also in the pic you can see i have run the new 'hel' ornage brake lines

which have run through out the car



they are held in place by these



which are honda F1 cable guides.

got the battery bolted in today too



offered one of my wet wheels up to see how the new colour looked



i like it so much i think the drys are going to go the same colour

 

Great progress mate.

 

thanks paul

Love it, every year it's progresses massively to the next level - should be quiet interesting on the track with the new power and handling Ron

Who did the mod to the pedal box Ron ?

Like it Ron, you can't beat orange wheels!!

 

Did you just have a standard rebuild on the box mate or did you have anything special done to it, bar the centre push.
