Project deX (with pics)

Looks the dogs mate

Hopefully you'll take me out in it soon

 

the car is running basically std kr cams - so am looking at about 180ish bhp, and would love to get 155-160lb/ft

the big thing with this engine (hopefully) will be the shape of the curve, not the height of the peak.


so far none of you have noticed the silver shiny thing between the block and the gearbox...

 

I did

 

well sorted dex...i thought you were going to stay apart of the 1.8 crew [:^(]

 

I can see summat matt grey but not shiney silver.

 

LMFAO @ GVK!

We like torque

 

Looks great. I'm sure it goes even better.

So you're using standard cams at the mo. Will you be considering uprated sticks? If so what profile do you think?

 

It's called a flywheel isn't is dex ?

 

james garrit!


haha..nearly bought a few things off him in my time....

 

He had 260s in the 1800

 

Who's he then?

 

is he the dentist ??

 

Yep, rip off fat cnut!

Supposedly a 2.0 kr with uprated, internals, oil pump etc...

I'd blow him away in mine with my eyes shut, arms behind my back anyway....

Fat dentist b*stard!

LoL, thats how I feel about Vagsport mate!

 

hey vick - saw your car at the workshop - it's certainly in great condition. matt showed me the state the wiring had been left in [:^(]


glad he's getting it sorted for ya

now you just need a *proper* 16v engine in it

 

Looking great - your car is gonna haul!!!

 

Still, now it's at Vagsort's biggest fan's place all will be well.

 

LoL, what u mean like yours eh ??? . I've been car less so long I would'nt mind if it was runnin the 8v it had before ! .

I'm definately glad I gave it to DD tho.
