19kg light weight :D you hero!!!!!

AlexB 10th April 2010 09:31

Not a bad purchase there josh lol

jpsaxo 11th April 2010 09:16

Lol Alex, hopefully should stiffen things up nicely! Did you end up selling your cage in the end?

Cheers Lee, 19kg indeed, should be good! Its being ordered in from Italy on Monday so i'd imagine it will be a couple of weeks until it arrives. Gearbox should be done by then, so dad will pop it up to Matts for fitting, then down to Bic....

LEE_VTR1 11th April 2010 09:19

you hero josh.

nice structural gains and a nice weight saving above your head winner!!

Yeah im hoping so mate, basically hoping the weight saving will offset the weight of cage near enough so will keep it reasonably quick, and then obviously cage will stiffen up things and improve the chassis. Thats the thought behind it all anyway!

Thanks! Nah box already had a quaife mate, were changing the final drive from a vts/gti to a 1.4xsi as even on the ring i wont need the top end of a vts FD.

josh you will be so pleased with the box once you have a nice short fd in there! it makes such a difference to the way the car pulls and drives!

oh and not bad cage :P

AndySAXO 12th April 2010 17:11

ooo my miss this update, cage should help stiff the chassis up, also a carbon fibre roof!!

this will be crazy!

i keep looking at this.
