Did a little more work in the last couple of days, engine bay now devoid of the bit that goes Vroom Vroom



Replaced Newage STi Rack with a 2.2 turn Spec C Rack



Modified Steering linkage with Classic Spline on one end and Newage on the other

 

nice work John!

 

Cheers Si, LOL at your signature, sure you haven't missed an ECU type ?

Another wee job done today to aid in the 'transmogrification' from Hillclimb car to Circuit car. Oil cooler installed in the inner wing

Thanks KennyS for the help today

 

So, will we be seeing you competing at some TA events this year John?


Is it worth me making he trip up to KH?

 

LOL, I live 30 mins from KH Neil and I usually have to ask if it's worth the trip

 

funny you should mention that.. yes I have omitted a few "adaptroinc, Omex, Emanage" for example but I think the message is there

Simon

 

Looking good particularly like the ventilation holes from the spot welds should let a little air through from the top as well as air forced in from the front

 

Finally got round to fitting my Bias Box today after it languishing in the garage for about 18 months.

It leave plenty of room in a certain area of the engine bay

Gaffa tape, it holds the world together!

 

Thee single most important thing in the spares packeage when you go racing

 

Nah, CABLE TIES, mmmmmmm !

 

John,

It's a great build you've got going here. I'm following with interest!

Out of interest, which age/version of car has the steering rack you've used come off? I ask because i'm planning the same mod but have been told that a V11 has completely different mounting points and I would need an earlier version. Do you know if this is the case?

Look forward to seeing the results on track! I'll be at KH a few times this year so will keep an eye out for you.

Cheers

James

 

Martin, are you advocating that I should fix my new 'Enginetuner' Setrab Oil Cooler setup using these ?


---john---

 

Looking really good John.

Big rotated going in there then ?

 

James I believes it's from an 06 plate Spec C, only thing different I needed was a pair of longer bolts for one mount.

John are you planning a trip down south this year?

I've not noticed your name on the Scooby Sprint Shampionship. If you are attending any York events give me a shout and I pop up to watch and photograph.
