nissan factory manuals sh*t all over these alfa ones

Fair enough. I think dad has an old haynes manual for Escorts around somewhere. Love haynes manuals.

+1

+1 good call Ravi.

not so much for crash but for chassis stiffness. The extra diagonal in them is probably a waste but I don't like squares :)

What about just an X rather than the square with a diagonal. I'd say it would provide similar stiffness with less weight.

oh, and will seam weld from the a pillars to all the front suspension mount points. Theres just no practical way to get enough cage bars through there :D

Sounds good. Whats the goal for completion? Is it going to be fairly drawn out ie 2012 sometime or are you going to hammer it through and be racing in 2011?

oh hai!

whats happening guysss?

ps i just drove down stafford road - phantom motors no longer exists?

Hai sexy legs.

nm is happening mang just working. You get your exam timetable yet? 8,10,17,18 and 22nd of June for me. Spread out a bit which is good but 5 exams fml.

Phantom have relocated I think.

Whats there now?

Are you happy with the tune you got from STZ mang? They are a haltech premium rep or something... (gonna run a PS2000 on the alfa)

X's are just as bad as squares. Think of a pair of scissors... although an X with the 2 ends (no sides) might be OK, ie:

rear brace->|X|<-harness bar

worth considering...

Whatever time/money/parts availability permits. Seems to be no luck getting an engine at this stage... :)

i vote racing in 2011

Would be nice :D

Fair enough.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.  
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
