Yeah it was the nuts mate.

iam not suprised it blew a rod at that pressure on standard internals, thought it would be nearer 1.2 BAR, but who knows.

Keep us posted on your progress mate.

 

[h17och]

engine is out. got it out saturday nite. and the engine! lol

heres the big hole

and i also got the seats. heres one throw in. not set up yet

 

[wagcupra1]

they look the nuts! how did u find the gt28rs to drive? been looking at buying one but don't wanna run megger power probably between 280-310 ish as its a dayly car? must come have a look when i got some free time

 

[h17och]

it was quick but if its set up to be a smooth car then i could imagine it could be ok. my suspension is real harsh and ive no sound deadening. theres a few bits that would make it more driveable.

i say just do it

 

[wagcupra1]

how much did u pay 4 ur gt28rs kit and did u get manifold as well

 

[h17och]

thers not much point in going by my price as the only manifold you will get hold of is £1200

 

[wagcupra1]

1200 for manifold? so u running standard manifold den? how much of a pig was it to fit? I am a fully qualified mechanic so i've got the time and knowledge plus i used to have renaults so it'll never be as bad as working on them

 

[cupra_matt]

Good work mate.

That Seat is fooking lush, iam a mega jelous man.

 

[h17och]

im running an obselete mani! only mani that you can get to fit is jbs equal length....£1200

its a proper pig. i had to make 4 spanners to fit it!!! there are pics of it in this thread...somewhere lol

 

[h17och]

they are soo supportive. cant wait, gonna defo need a baffled sump now lol

 

[PhilW]

[h17och]

GT3 seats

gonna get silver/grey 3" harnesses

gonna be good

 

[h17och]

forgot to add you can lift both seats with one hand...soo lite

 

[PhilW]

Are they proper GT3 seats? They must have cost a fortune!

thers not much point in going by my price as the only manifold you will get hold of is £1200

my equal tube mani, dp, intake, De cat pipe option and turbo exit pipe to meet the eurojet pipe costed me £1100 inc vat.
