My Mk2 Ibiza GTi 20VT Track Car Project *The end is here*

I'll never let you loose faith in this car mate, you've thrown far to much money at it and we've both spent far to much time on it to give up with it.

You know you want the BT just get saving and racking up the overtime

Its great when you are able to get overtime, even better when you can get unlimited overtime for the next month or two. Thats the situation I'm in just now.

 

[roly]

Sometimes i wish i could get overtime, on the plus side i get 24/7 use of a 2 bay workshop so that kind of makes up for it

 

[Martin M]

I can't get overtime either, actually...i really need to get a new job sorted!

 

[gary1986]

Loving the car mate looks nice. You will have to take me out for a drive soon as i have not been out in it with the coilover's on, it handled really well before the coilovers were fitted. Cant believe how much your car has changed from when you first got it

 

[Martin M]

Got myself another job sorted today so the modding will continue soon

Still playing around with the ride height on the coilovers, here's how it's sitting at the moment:

(Excuse the rubbish camera phone pictures)

The car's now back on a stock turbo and map, 156bhp isn't fun

Next on the list: Quaife diff

 

[roly]

Im still waiting for my go in the 156 warrior, it must be like driving the vectra all over again

 

[Martin M]

I'll take you for a spin dude, it sucks, but the new turbo will be worth the wait!

 

[roly]

New turbo will push it past the power i'll be running i've got some non power related ideas for mine for the future tho

Depends what route i go really. Probably be some time before it's on anyway. Still got the handling to sort out first and the bushes etc...

Not good on a part time job i think i'll be looking for something else too.

 

[roly]

You'll come up with something mate, you have a certain knack for aquiring funds when needed

Cheers Daz

I'm not a fan of colour-coding on the Ibiza, i think the black breaks it up a little.

 

[daz_cymru]

fair enough haha

 

[Martin M]

Took a trip to Rally Design for Ben today and they had something on the shelf i couldn't say no to!

It'd be rude not to

Handling will be 100% before i go for the BT. Next on the list is wishbones and ball joints, then get the camber, tracking and 4 wheel alignment done

 

[tris]

Is that a diff?

 

[Martin M]

Yup

 

[crezz]

how do you manage to buy all these goodies? lol

 

[h17och]

HoocH

 

[F2 Stu]
