Car is coming off road now to be fully stripped and tidied up for trax, it will be on stand if anyone wants to come and look!!

Also at castle combe rallyday, where im trying to obtain the old sponsers!!

Luke 26th August 2008 21:47

Saxp stand?

Looks nice, despite how much work has gone into it I still find it a lot of money.

MJRallying 26th August 2008 21:49

Thing is mate its hard to explain how much money has gone into it!!

Its a class winning car its worth what ever he wants to charge really!! With spares its worth easily what i paid.
You could mod a road car as much as you like and it will be worth x amount but competition cars is a diff league.

Group A Suspension etc......

Karl-I see your idea but i cant rally a std ek9, scooby was worth 7k which is what all this is worth.

Ocego_VTR 26th August 2008 21:51

tis nice but i will always prefer that mad scooby lol (just it was mental!)

Yates 26th August 2008 22:02

i dare say both them engines are worth a bit, then with all tyres and everything well worth it

MJRallying 26th August 2008 22:12

Yes the whole lot is worth a bomb yates!!

Does anyone know much about FIA stuff?? As according to next year all seats must be fia approved and they cant be any older then 5 years now the sticker on mine looks like 1999 which means i will need to change!!

Dont wanna sell the wrap arounds there lush as were 400 notes each :(

Colin 26th August 2008 22:55

Ive actually competed against this very car lol.

MJRallying 26th August 2008 22:59

Ahh rite sweet what car in??

Colin 26th August 2008 23:04

A mini. At the Emerald stages. It overtook us as we blew the engine up round the back of the circuit!

MJRallying 26th August 2008 23:07

Nice one you need french haha

Ryan 26th August 2008 23:11

if the regs say you have to have 5 year old seats max means they have to go for newer ones :P

MJRallying 26th August 2008 23:13

Yes ryan but mine aint marked as to when there made for some reason so perhaps i can cross out dec-04 and will do me for next season

Mrk1 27th August 2008 00:15

Looks awesome & spec sounds mad! Definately worth it especially if you're planning to take part in local rally events.

Surely the FIA regs will be really strict?!?!

Hopefully I'll spot this monster at Castle Combe Rally Day. :y:
More pics needed tbh.

landanimal 27th August 2008 00:22

nice 205 love the cars!

Mint-VTR 27th August 2008 01:38

Bet thats cool to drive, nice work!

MaRiO89 27th August 2008 01:47

If the seats are 1999 and they are only allowed to be 5 years old, then how has it been rallied recently? lol

The seats aren't that old anyways Mark..I'll have a proper look tomorrow..

MaRiO89 27th August 2008 12:25

Did a few bits to it today, touched up some area's of the engine bay with Hammerite and grabbed some pics of the coilovers etc..Also put the standard grill back on as it looks much better..Also took the numbers off the doors and the event stickers from the last rally..Tomorrow will be getting our names put on the windows too..

I have a few before and after shots of the painting and the grill..

Here's some pics anyways..

Old Grill:



Grill Off & Oil Cooler:





New/Standard Grill:





Engine bay before Painting:



After Paint:







Coilovers:

No rust anywhere under there..Just dirty and full of underseal..:D





Rear Damper:



Rear Interior:

Could do with abit of a clean..



Trumpets: ;)



Gona put another front bumper on at somepoint aswell as the current one has a abit missing on the Passenger side at the bottom..We have another red one, just a case of fitting it..

Thats about it for today, will be doing our names tomorrow and doing abit more tidying up inside etc..Will of course update the thread with pics etc..

Cheers..

They are in place of the std Throttle body..Along with the carb's..Hugely less restrictive inlet..

AlexB 27th August 2008 12:51

trumpets are the air intake for the carbs

just them then the throttle butterfly
a lot less restrictive than any induction kit lol!

EDIT: damn beat to it
