My Mk2 GT30 508bhp 500ftlb torque spawn of the Devil

It just seems foolish Eddie, I can't get my head around it one bit. I'm not trying to be negative, just genuinely stunned.

From a club / forum point of view, it portrays an impression to those reading it that it's fine to build a high output engine and thrash it without any setup or safetynet, so whilst the OP is more than fine to do as he chooses, and I'm very glad for him that no issues occurred, I think it should be strongly noted that it's very bad practice and those reading this should absolutely NOT assume it to be OK.

 

Great time that

have you got a copy of the timing slip ?

What was 60ft time and 1/8th speed and time ?

 

Cheers yes got the slip but can't post a pic yet as I work away in the week and it's at home but I'll do it the weekend

 

What was your 60ft and terminal speed then ?

 

I saw your car and went round it in the queue didnt come over as thought you had enough on your plate to think yours was the inspiration for my build i should be asking you for tips

 

Here's the slip as promised with all the times


Plans are already in motion for a new head with supertech valve train and a mk3 golf diesel box with dif

 

I have AFR, oil pressure and boost they all show readings whether there right is another thing but i have gauges!

 

Wouldnt worry about the head wont add any hp. A remap however id imagine once mapped you will have enough power where traction will be your next focus.

 

Cracking 60ft time there in comparison mine was 2.55 with a 14.1 @ 114 terminal.
Swapped out my coolant temp sensor - definitely fooked - now need to find out why my rad fan isn't kicking in

 

Cars now sorn till next year to sort out all the issues engine out check the bearings on the crank bores ect, new head and new inlet manifold, also gearbox and MOST of all mapping ill be coming back next year fighting fit and faster

 

Just a few goodies that eddie has kindly got me



A few more parts and a winters work and ill be back better than ever

 

Ive been purchasing quite at lot recently new mk2 loom and aum 1.8t loom sent them to andy outhwait to get them spliced and the ecu deimoblised, i bought a new head about 3 weeks ago thanks to pete for picking it up it has been sent over to bills to fit the valve train and cast his magic over, bought a gearbox back that i sold early on in the year a mk3 TDI box with 80,000 miles on it just going to get this stripped checked over and a new diff fitted. New race crank baring's new piston rings just got to check the bores on the block make sure there ok im looking for a large intercooler at the moment but all will take a lot of modding to fit so they arnt seen and work well a lot of work to do going to do it over christmas and its booked in at bills in jan

 

I currently run the Toyosport 600x300 with 76mm in/outlet on mine (otherwise known as a wellycooler) along with a corrado VR6 radiator. Had to make some small brackets to mount it; reposition the radiator very slightly (still uses one factory mount though on the cross-member) and finally grind a bit out the slam panel but it fits great and no need to cut out the bumper either.

Couple of pics in the following

Cheers for that i did buy one but sold it on i was being lazy and wanted it on the road at the time, now ive seen it done ill buy one now.
Ps you available over Christmas for a few hours if i run into trouble

 

Looking good gunna be a beast when done. We go a few ready for early jan now

 

Where you get the race bearings from ?

What diff you get ?

 

Obx diff and ACL bearings from TSR performance

 

Alex at aks is going to do a group buy on peron intercoolers after Christmas. Might be worth giving him a shout to see if they do anything suitable. Although I'm not too sure how cheap they are.

 

Ive just bought the welly cooler im going to buy a 50mm core alloy rad and im going to fab some brackets and bolt them together and fit neatly in the bay like the pro alloy cooler group but with ebay parts lol

 

Really nice car mate. Good time too [emoji106]
