Ronin225's Candy rimmed Black LCR - Project 500-4WD, Cage installed and bigger turbo

[Ape]

I'd dremel the face and the bolt holes too mate. I needed to do that with mine when they came loose at the Nurburgring.

You coming to the next one with us mate?

 

[Ape]

Depends where, when, if the car is on the road, if I'm in the County, the list goes on and on at the mo. Just started a new job and the 15+ hour days are... new!

That sounds positive! That sounds like you may be considering sticking with the beast!

We want to do an Anglesea, another Blyton and maybe another all next year!

 

[Ape]

Keep me informed then dude!

 

[Ronin225]

When a track and date are sorted i'll post up to see if anyone interested so keep an eye out
As for the wheels i did the contact surfaces of the bolts after hearing about yours, guess its time to do the hub mating face too

 

[David_smith_909]

i love this

 

[Ronin225]

Cheers dude
On other news i think the track has killed my N75 too
Now spiking to 17-18psi, if progressive acceleration builds to 5psi and holds until it flys up to minimum 15psi
Time to raid the Audi parts again

 

[Phillc]

Ah i know someone who will have a Eboost, boost controller, for sale soon.

 

[Ronin225]

I think i'm awhile off needing a boost controller yet, hopefully a replacement N75 will suffice for now
Need to book some time at yours to Phill if possible to fit the steering rack bush and 034 mounts before it gets too cold and you break yours

If we're still on for doing my abs sensor tomoz ill bring the list

 

[Phillc]

Yes mate, i will be back at 4:30.

 

[Ronin225]

Today i popped down to my friends garage to borrow his wind back tool for changing the rear brakes and thought i may as well stay and do i there, so partially pulled into one of the units and got cracking
Removed the old discs and pads, then wound the pistons in which went back quite easily with the proper tool
All out showing my nice new bearing and hub

When i came to put the new discs on i noticed the internal vanes were straight and not rotational so i've put them in the with the grooves the more aggresive way round for cleaning the pads
All fitted

Then popped it all abck together and a quick trip down the road to make sure all was hunky doory
They do however look so small and lost behind the wheels

So another job off the list

 

[ashtec]

Nice car. The paint shines like new. What tracks u been too so far ?

 

[Ronin225]

Cheers mate, paint only shines when its clean though
In the leon i've only done Blyton a couple of times but planning on doing many more soon

 

[Rgm racer]

Without reading thread again, am i right in thinking this isn't 4wd yet? If so is it still the plan to do it and what turbo are you planning to achieve the 500bhp goal?

 

[Ronin225]

Not 4wd yet, repairs to this and a house keep eating my money
The rear end rebuild is going to cost a bout 1k just in parts and i need to get the engine done first.
The new EFR series turbos are giving out impressive numbers for their size so i will be looking into these

 

[james.l]

I personally wouldn't trust an integral wastegate to cope with figures of 450+bhp. Just my opinion. I think most of the efr range come with these.

Have you looked at HTA offerings?
