unreal!

:bump:

Cant be forgettin about this thread now! No more updates yet then matey?

not much yet iam still making and buying parts. ive just started making the fuel tank.ill post some more pics soon. the tanks going under the car where the original one was but alot smaller.
i think its gonna start to be a power chase as ive just gave my mate the headn for some head work before i fit the new cams. but ive came across a turbo and ive just ordered a decompression plate. but i cant make my mind up what to do. just get it running on bodies or turbo it.i might just get it running and see what its like then turbo it later on. but its temping to just turbo it but then it will take a lot longer to make the manifolds and all the bits.what do you think
adam

whack a turbo on it u come this far y not ? lol !
jay

Turbo would be good. Then plenty of pics/vids of it being tested and built up. Looks imense.

Its a tough one, depends how quickly you want it up and running i suppose. were a fair way into show season already, so i suppose it also depends wether or not you want to take it on the tracks.

Sticking a turbo in it now, would be a good idea though, seeing as though the cars in pieces pretty much.

this is a wikid thread. cant wait to see this car finished. well done mate

heres a quick pic of the fuel tank that i made today. ive ordered a new ecu it should be here by saturday. so all i have to do now is put it all together then get it running. its taking a longer then it should of done because someone at work broke the plasmer cutter. but it being fixed this week.
adam

looking good mate keep up the good work :y:

Damn will be one quick car, cant wait get some video up bud! :y:

nice job on the tank how much will it hold

6 gallon ish so it will take £30 to fill it i think it will be ok or i could put a tank the other side of the prop and use a link pipe. but i dont like the idea of running a pipe past the prop incase it brakes flames fire dead lol
adam

that looks gd maytee, wish me welding were tht gd lol.

thats aswome mate...keep it up

Good stuff, keep the updates coming!

hi its me again lol my megasquirt ecu come today but ive gotta put it all together ive got the ecu with uprated map sensor so i can run i think upto
about 40psi but ill never go that high lol. the stim kit and relay board so ive got everything to get it running now just gotta spend a couple of hours putting it together :p
adam

blimey mate you made short work of that, was it as hard as it looked.
top job buddy

ur actuallly i nutter so much work has got to be done for this

good lad keep at it cant wait to see this

Nice progress mate

easyer then i thought it was gonna be. its all the components are numbered on the bags so its just stick em in and solder em. all the instuctions are on line. ive saved a load of money doing it myself aswell. iam trying to keep it cheap so far the conversion only cost me about £400 and ive only gotta spend about another 150 to spend
adam

Great thread mate it looks like its coming along really well.Keep up the good work.

this looks well wicked... was thinking about sticking a honda vtec engine in the rear of mine so i wouldnt need to cut the transmission tunnel.. but this looks wicked inspiring i might think of having mine in the front know...you got me thinking lol .
keep up the good work mate cant wait to see it running :P

looking good so far mate! Keep up the hard work! Any pics of how the rest of the cars progressing?

This thread is ledgendary mate, great work and a lot of effort not to mention time put in

Keep it up bud and cant wait to see more pics and the first vid of her up and running :y:

thats an insane build

its oging to be great

forgot bout this one, looking good must say

is the chassis finished now?

first ive seen of this thread! and gotta say wow!

really impressive and well done for having the balls to go through it!!
itll all be worth it in the end!!

sick car!

i would say about 90% ive had to remake the 4 link boxes for the back so ive gotta weld them in. and finish the engine bracing but i want to fit all the engine first so i dont have to cut a load out to get it to fit.and weld the tunnel fully up but ive gotta wait till i get the prop done so iam leaving it till i get the prop back just incase. and ive gotta find some coilovers for the back end then make the mounts. its finding all the parts at the right price why its taking so long.:y:
adam

come on hurry up :P

Would you not have to line the inside of your fuel tank with somethin, with it bein aluminium?

good work mate, i cant wait to see it finished :y:

no you dont have to line it. all the kitcars run tanks the same as this.
ive just put baffle plates in to help the fuel.
