No worries. Its been sat in my loft in its box waiting for me to "wear out" the one I've currently got fitted but I'll probably go Z32 AFM before I get round to fitting it. lolOriginally Posted by DaveB666
Looks tidy behind the rad there. You might want a cold feed to supply some "unwarmed" air though.
nice kitcar!!
looking very good, the exhaust looks finished as well,nothing else needed there imoIts OK Jonny, got a new one installed -
That's just the screamer pipelooking very good, the exhaust looks finished as well,nothing else needed there imo
That is the exhaust, not getting anything else lol. Test drive tonight I hope.
A sound recording/video clip would be very cool,
At night with multi go-pros with at least one pointing at the flame emitting pipe (so called exhaust)

Well, it works.
Absolutely ****ing epic.
Yes indeed that is very cool, well done that man
Were you short shifting due to wheel spin or have you just rebuilt the engine ? Seems to be revving and starting to spool quite nicely.
I was short shifting because I was scared LOL
It sounds awesome and looks pretty damn quick in that video, it goes through its gears quickly as well like the diff is 4:1 ish ?
Pretty close Andy, 3.75 diff
You'll soon get over that
Probably 375 per ton ATM. That was literally the second mile of driving haha.
Its not been rebuilt but has all been apart so I want to take it fairly easy.
Found a water leak tonight along with a gearbox leak so got a few little jobs to be on with:-)
Sorry, I've let you down - couldn't deal with the noise of just the 'downpipe'. It wasn't the sheer volume of the thing, it was how awful it sounded on idle; almost tractor like and echoy.
I went back to Clark Customs in Barnsley and we fitted a fairly small backbox and pipe. It's still a 3" system and can if needs be, come off for some loud holliganism if I ever feel the need.
Jason Clark, my mate that did the exhaust and downpipe is also a pro-drifter so I offered him the key to see how my car would perform. I think it's safe to say he was fairly happy with it

I have got a few niggles with the car that I need to sort:
- Clutch biting point is too high and needs altering some-how
- Clutch pedal needs a 'clutch-stop' on the bulkhead
- Had a water leak (this is now sorted)
- Need my new inlet making so that I can get my new bonnet on
- Side panels need flairing to let out the heat - it was getting really warm yesterday
- Swirl pot needs some heatshield adding to it; it was that warm yesterday that it was actually boiling in the pot!!
There might be a few grumbles for one or two on here but at least you stand a chance of getting back on speaking terms with your neighbours and won't have to say "Ay !" so much
Looking forward to watching the vid when I get home.
Cheers Jonny.
Know owt about clutch biting points?
Bleed it again?
Will that move the biting point? Never had a hydraulic clutch before so it's all new to me.
