the intercooler mad the usual flat spot so i purchased a pfc and datalogit remapped it andsorted out .The oil cooler made a massive difference as the oil temp would be 105 degrees when being pushed no its max is 90 degrees so thums up to that

ive fitted a carbon splitter i made to the spec2 bumper as i dont like the aftermarket bumpers

got a spare engine which had lost compression so i stripped it to see what it was

3 pistons were shot but the bores were ok so sent everything off to get machined with new pistons and rods acl bearings ect and just got it all back

what do you think

beautiful

obviously looking to do some track work. what other plans for it, engine suspension brakes etc.

love the door trims..

ive just purchased a link g4 and a gt3071r my spare engine i have tomi pon b cams, suspension at the moment its cusco coil overs but for track there very under damped so i use a company called gaz do they are building me at set of coilovers that be weighted to the car and sprung correctly ! the car is built to fia standards which is basicly the British clubman race regulations but at the moment its just track use . I do all my own carbon work i have just made a bonnet to no pics as yet tho but i can do carbon infusion and wet lay so i have some fun with that

i feel a bit of a coward though as ive dropped the compression to 8.5.1 i here you boys run high with big horse power . Australia are alot more forward than us in tuning thats one of the reasons i went for the link and ditched the power fc plus i like mapping pressure verse rpm rather than maf verse rpm

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
