Quick update before Carbon Sunday

Visted James @ For-Tune today for a pre Combe rolling road, (cheers buddy )

and it made reasonable power , Last time it was way down with only 108bhp

but after I have fitted a new temp. sender and my cheap air filter off e-bay she came in @ 120.8 bhp, which I was pleased with as the fueling was much better, not bad for 120k,

so no stopping me now


Paid for my 2.0 Zetec while I was down there and hopefully picking it up on Wednesday

Had my 2 sets of Morettes turn up today so the best set will be fitted tomorrow.

also travelled upto Swindon tonight to collect a pair of doors and a front bumper for Luke

My alloy battery tray turned up today as well the postman must love me

A few pictures from today and if it works a vid of my RR run

Car got really salty on the way down but shes all clean again now








big big update tomorrow evening guys

[purple_fiesta]

i think your next mod should be a large set of brakes

[jayrs]

looking good there mate, pc is playing up so wontwatch the vid but i will when its sorted

glad to here your lights arrived ok mate, thats a drink you owe me now

[heeman10]

Good to see you this morning Shaun, even if I didn't notice you'd lost 20% of your body weight since your last visit! Impressive! You can't blame me though, you could've hidden a GeForce Junkie under that jumper! It's satisfying to see running issues resolved by replacing such cheap, yet important components such as coolant temp senders. Power, torque and fuelling are all exactly where they should be now, so it was definitely worth your efforts and your trip up. My eyesight is still slightly impaired after the dazzling interior!

Luke, my pleasure fella, You've done plenty for me in the past, just make sure your near your phone all day tomorrow

[JamieFRST]

Good result, shame I couldn't make it over this morning. Had the dash out the shed earlier, but noticed it had holes cut in for tweeters and looks like crap. So may as well just go in the bin.

[Tweek]

Sounds so much nicer than mine!

[Xr_Dub]

sounds nice mate,nice work jamaas on the rolling road 120bhp not bad
my old xr2i poo engine made 128bhp on the rollers before i did my turbo conversion years ago screamed like a cow but i use to love it lol to slow now lol

[MattPym]

C-Day today, I want lots of pics

[garyhurn77]

good work! 120bhp not bad at all should provide some fun at combe you must have been there when i rang james yesterday morning!

[hb69]

not a bad rr result launch control in yet?

big day for the car today

[MarkRS2K]

nice power there

[knuckles]

i think your next mod should be a large set of brakes

Bigger brakes weigh more. He wont be interested

Im sorry those mirrors should be on a F1 car. They look silly. Get a cheap set of standard mk3 jobbies on there. They lighter than mk3.5

[Ollybee]

I'm glad someone said it.

[Turboboy67]

Sorry guys the mirrors are staying

And Olly, and could of said it yourself

Well I was going to fit the roof today, but after seeing the snow and temp.drop today I abandoned it until next weekend, cutting it fine for Combe now though

I have however painted my Morettes ready to go on, pictures later

Henry, launch control isn't fitted yet, but will be before Combe fella

Gary, Yeah I was there when you rang

120bhp I'm happy with, I have really concentrated on the handling up to now,

I'm fitting harder springs before Combe

[Tweek]

It's a track car not a fudgekin fashion icon

I vote keep the mirrors

[hb69]

Cool i can hear the rev limiter in the rolling road video, did you find it easy enough to fit?

[FRSJON]

[Turboboy67]

The inner lights were corroded on the ones I'm using, but they won't be in

[Captain Tightpants]

Good news on the power output.

Any idea on the cost so far?

Steve

A quick add up gives me £3655

But this includes Carbon roof and yet to be made bonnet which is just over £1k

Pro-alloy fuel cell is included as well.

3 sets of wheels/tyres

Coilovers only cost me £20 net after selling my old suspension

plus everything else on it I can remember
