john_robertson Posted December 24, 2004 Posted December 24, 2004 Depending on dates I should be up for it, just need to give Jamie a phone call first Jamie I'll "hopefully give you phone inbetween Xmas / New Year " John.
Chris_B Posted December 24, 2004 Author Posted December 24, 2004 Well i'm in no way going to make this anymore due to my bearing failure. Maybe next time
RishiGTiR Posted December 27, 2004 Posted December 27, 2004 << Another busy day in the office pal? >> Couple of weeks off mate... haha!... Rishi
WUZ Posted December 27, 2004 Posted December 27, 2004 Rishi - would like to see a power figure from your car M8! Lots of differing views on the cars output. 3 separate people have told me you say your car has close to 400 but with the parts you put on it I'd guess at nearer 345-350. Then I hear your last RR was about 350? Care to explain? Or is it "beach chat" to keep the NED's at bay? Would just like to know who to avoid and who not to! Russell ps - brotheres Pulsar is nearing completion, last run (1.4 bar on the 3037 AFAIK) was about 378 (or so I have been told!) pps - how the Quaife gearbox? Or is it a "Dakar" spec box?

Or is it a "Dakar" spec box? >> Hi Russel... Yes there is always alot of beach chat... Not that I'm ever there... lol I've never really said much about the cars output... People always take a guess from the likes of 1/4mile times etc... Not sure that anyone really knew the full spec of the car either but there is always talk... Its funny the amount of people who tell me about my own car... lol Anyways... Its been mapped to a medium boost level just now, 1.5bar, it should be producing around 400bhp at this boost... If you're interested i could easy meet up with you or pop by your garage sometime so you can have a look and kill all the talk and see the facts for yourself... Also give you hints on which companies to use in the GTiR world etc...??? The Quaife Box is great... Nice and solid... Plus it can handle the power that the standard box blew apart at... lol Providing I'm home i'd love to attend the RR day... I'll be in Africa for a week or 2 towards the end of January... Regards, Rishi p.s. the last RR day was a year ago and i was running on a standard turbo and with a faulty injector resistor pack meaning that my car was fueling all wrong and could only hold 0.9bar boost... ended up with 300bhp/290ft lb @ 0.9bar.... p.p.s Would I be able to invite one more GTiR along... Its a 2.2L with a dustbin lid sized turbo...
Chris_B Posted December 28, 2004 Author Posted December 28, 2004 Wuz you get me reply re: gruppe-s turbo??

~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 I may come along and spectate - will bring the camcorder and hopefully catch some pops, flames, grins, tears & fumes !
Carl Davey Posted January 19, 2005 Posted January 19, 2005 Guys, i'm up for a run provided the date meets the following requirements. 1. I am not offshore 2. Andy is able to map my car before the run (i.e. i run in the afternoon) The later in the year the better for me really. Anytime between the 23rd February to 14th March is good for me. This gives a chance to fit the new parts either this time home or before the RR Day next time home.
halo Posted January 24, 2005 Posted January 24, 2005 Count me in provided I can get my suspension at the right height and sort my rear tyres oot !
