Picked up the new track car today :)

[~ ~ Cal ~~]

Is this the beast that used to frequent KH ?  If so I have a video of it and it was MENTAL when the second turbo came on full song !

Nice find folks

dont think so... car was in Shetland before this..... BaAAAaaa

Changed the oil today, was pretty grubby :/ Gave the brakes a good clean too.... seem to be working a bit better now, but i'll give the calipers a damn good clean when i get new brakes pads! DS2500 or DS3000 ?!?!?!

 

had to take the grinder out to get the rear wiper bolt off lol its was crusted on solid

Took the grinder to the centre dash panel too.... will mock up a panel for gauges soon....

Fee / Adam,

Car is looking good [] I like R32's Mmmmm. Stop taking bits off to make it go even faster [:'(]

We need a chance to keep up []

I might pop down to the Top Marques night to have a wee spy on the "opposition" LOL

[Fee]

I'll be taking it to the SIDC day on 11th too....need to get some practice!

[Big Daz]

 Not gonna be back out till next year now.!![:'(][:'(]

Are you going to take the carpet out? It looks like it may weigh a fair bit.

[Fee]

Everything will be coming out eventually....

Trying to get a big multipoint cage....but it's proving quite difficult to find anything nearby or at an ok-ish price!

[Big Daz]

So with your method of fitment, that means all the glass will have to come out too then LOL []

wow u r goin to town on this, will be some track car and will be extremely quick, u putting it on knockhill this month for hot hatch, more like cold hatch? my m8 somethimes puts his 306 gti6 on the track, thats all stripped out and even has no dash lol

[Fee]

no hot hatches yet..... its not quite a banger yet

[z1000]

Love the white rims looking forward to seeing it blasting round next weekend i hope.

[Fee]

wont have its white trainers on for that outing. Dont fancy slicks on std setup hehe

[Fee]

The wheels..... being doing a bit of research on them. I have a feeling thay are 6.2kg...... but that is MEGA light for the size, so not so sure. Cant find any def info on the web either :/

They are

Kei Office or Keiichi Tsuchiya Modia

or above with KS-05 DTM added

not sure....

they have 620KG stamped in the back....... couldnt see a . between the 6 and 2, but have no idea what it refers to if not! Weight each wheel can take maybe

They are damn light to lift anyway!

Found some comments about the wheels weighing just over 5kg in 8"x16" size.... so quite possible they are 6.2kg. I'll get Fee to weigh one maybe

 

Adam

[scoobyiain]

Put them on bathroom scales for a rough weight.

[Adam Kindness]

got the cage

[st3ph3n]

If you're using IE7 then your pics wont work. But I've fixed them []

[Fee]

Ta

Mines ECU on the way now too...

so will be raising boost to 1.0bar for some extra shetland ponies

Its running 0.7bar just now.

ECU will be good to 1.2bar, but the turbos will prob fly apart and launch the exhaust wheel above 1.0 bar LOL so... wont try it.

Fee,

I saw the car at Knockhill.  It was very impressive even in the wet.
