have you guys seen these things???

to quote the website: they run a Yamaha 1200cc four cylinder 16 valve twin-cam engine producing 125bhp with integral close ratio straight cut gear sequential dog engagement gearbox.

and they only weigh 450 kg!! :eek:

my friend's brother has just bought one...he's going up next week to get the car and some training from Phil Ward, the guy who's behind these things.

The car itself cost him around 32K, but he's looking for sponsorship...he's sent a proposal to Shell (umm yeah the company, not me :D ) to paint it up like a Shell Helix car, but hasn't heard anything yet.

apparently he will pay around $450 to race in a round. That includes his pit, and passes for his pit crew (ie mates!!) for the weekend.

His first race will be Wakefield and the end of Sept apparently.

I think I'm gonna go up and watch, these things look cool! I wanna see them on the track :D

They were on the power tour until it went under the other week, I last heard they were looking at sticking commonwhore or falcon front ends on them and supporting the supercars.

There was one running at Wakefield on the last UAS track day back in April- pretty quick little cars.

      American owner: what scanner for JOBD port?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Actually, if having and keeping the stock ECU is the plan, the correct answer is to put Nistune into the ECU and improve the situation, not just look at it.

      Yeah so physically that port is consult not OBD2, but also be aware that "JODB" is not really a thing - it came in around 2000(ish) but is not a standard like ODB is, each manufacturer had differences. If you are looking at ECU only and have a standard ECU, go with Datascan as Turbo Tapin said. Per another recent discussion here thought that won't do other systems like in a modern car, for example bleeding ABS

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By Roy · Posted

      They're not rebuilt Racepace items. They were mint. From memory the were ex display stock that I bought off yahoo and he ran....from memory he barely used the REs when he replaced them with a set of Tein RS If have been stored correctly and not leaked fluid then they will be mint   As an observation the Racebuilt rebuilt Tein RA/RE/RS were a better street/club/track package. Really nice on the street and did good numbers at the track.  I think the factory Teins wont match the Racepace valving on the street but would be in the same window of performance on the track... albeit firmer
