Sounds good Ali, Hopefully we all can arrange it on the same dates this year. What about the same weekend as an RCN race and possibly a clubgti entrant. Should be a few racers out.
That would be good. Who is entering the RCN? Yourself and a few of the MK2 championship cars presumably? What are the regulations for RCN? I doubt my car would fit in with the regs even if I did want to do an event in the future tho [:^(]
Thanks Will make an effort to head down next year with the guys from up here, definately on for the ring trip next year. AH Fabrications made it for me from a drawing i supplied.
Not done much recently finished up the fuel lines through the car earlier on today. All hard-line aluminium through the car from the fuel system at the rear. Another thing arrived i have wanted forever and managed to justify to myself Gave it a face as well
I just used my hands to bend the tube i tried the pipe bender on a spare piece but it just squashed it, you also need a rolo-flair tool to make the 37 degree seat for the JIC fitting. It's something i will be using again now that i have invested in the tool to flare it. http://www.averytools.com/images/product/medium/128.jpg http://www.speedflowshop.co.uk/hardline-system-150-c.asp
You could use it on the fuel lines for my car if you want? I am hoping to see this and another motor running by the time I get back!
Can do if you can source the fuel line dont think she has any stock of it but i'll give her a call and find out if your serious. The skyline is running just trying to get this RX7 out of the picture i had forgotten how much 5hit there is attatched to the rotary in such a small space. Intercooler should be delivered today
Intercooler pics yet??? I take it you mean it is as before but not yet mapped? Will get back to you on the lines - I think I might have enough braided hose left that I can re use. If not, those alu lines look like the way to go.
What and amazing build very very clean and done right ! I see the rear axle with the bars across , is this to stop the axle flexing so much , or will it help and aid to create a sort of indepentant suspenion ? Joe
Very impressed with the work Craig, looks great and glad to see it coming on and very close to completion. Get the pics up of the shiny thing which arrived yesterday
Terrible photos but you get the idea of what arrived yesterday after a small wait for it to be made. Some fittings to finish the brake and engine breather systems although smart tits here managed to order the wrong size of banjo for the MK4 rear calipers What size is it actually, anyone? I am presuming it is metric but def not M10x1.0
Intercooler roughly in place quite a bit of modifying to do as i want to change the design of the front cross-member so i have more space in and around it. I will try and do a proper update at some point just havent had the time.
Thats about 3 x the size of the old one! What is the size of the core? Looks like a RS 500 job... Good work!
