[t0m]

Agreed, need some vids.

Will get some as soon as it's dry chaps.

What's done with box on this to take the big power??

 

[james.l]

02m box is capable of more power than I have currently, got a wavetrac diff in there for the time being.

Big thanks to AmD today for fitting my superpro steering rack bush. Have been meaning to have it done for a while just haven't been able to for the car being in bits. Had a full wheel geometry done as well on their new machine.

Should be able to drive the car now without wearing the inside edge.

the perfect reply to James' post!

Took the car for its first drive in the dry since having it back and all I can say is wow! It handles the power surprisingly well for such a powerful FWD car, this is down to the smooth power delivery. In the dry wheel spin isn't really a problem the car copes really well.

Sounds awesome James, must feels nice to finally have it on the road. The in gear acceleration must be out of this world, will continue to surprise you for some time I would have thought.

Feels great, very close to OEM. Zero clatter from the single mass flywheel which is nice. Southend have done a good job!

Double post

 

[paul-murphys]

we need videos and you get no noise with the smf? you going to launch with yours?

 

[james.l]

Sorry chaps, I don't use the car in the week and it only comes out at the weekend if its dry so this weekend should be good for that. Will do my best

 

[james.l]

I dont get any noise from the smf but I have got a balanced engine, and also a silent clutch kit.

There does seem to be a rattling coming from somewhere sometimes I think it's the exhaust shielding

Vids this weekend no excuses

I've got an awful heat shield rattle at 2-2300 rpm. Driving me nuts. Annoyingly, my commute to work is on a 50mph limit where it's sat about 2100 rpm lol
