Re: My RS1800 Track car. Comp MOs finally on !!
Well after all the fannying about with the car to get it ready for Ford Fair
(cosworth brakes on then swapped back again )
My longer studs turned up and fitted them this morning,
Lots and lots of things have been bought for this project,
but most of it will be fitted over the Winter months
Latest additions are Leda 3 ways
And Emerald K3 management
But I have finally fitted these
Should make me stand out on track better

They look marvellous! Good suggestion with the cage too
What's the plan with the ECU then..build the engine up and sling the whole lot in in one go?

Re: My RS1800 Track car. Comp MOs finally on !!
Cheers for the comments guys, thought you all would like them
Theres no way I'm taking that cage out again, I like things subtle anyway
Jimbo, yeah, the whole lot will be done together, engine, box, management, suspension, adjustable top mounts, brand new carbon bonnet, pro-alloy fuel cell, lots more lightening etc. etc. etc
The wheels were only a quick job for this year, but I think they may stay this colour now for a while

Sphinx :When it comes time for the re-spray, you're gonna be gutted you stuck all those sticker on it
Re-spray is the last thing on the list fella, I got engine upgrades to do first
The stickers cover up the worst bits of the paint atm anyway, everytime I find a dent/scratch another one is added
So my next track day is at Euro-fest @ Combe, on 6th September, lets hope its dry
Couple of things to do, first is to sort the subframes for the seats out, (seen what Luke has done on his )
Oil catch tank needs renewing as the last one split, and front brakes need a proper bleed,
Need to do some road miles on it as well, just to bed the brakes in,
but after getting the ST220 I'm not looking forward to it
Use to a comfy quiet ride now

Re: My RS1800 Track car. new co- owner I'm told lol !!
Yeah and when the bugger drove off in it to stretch her legs and left me behind well......I was gutted. I could hear it for bloody miles as well
I even strapped myself in the harnesses at one point it didn't work, he still booted me out
If you move the seat back anymore I won't be able to put the clutch in, how will I drive it then?

How much noise does your rabbit make, if it makes a wining noise then you've worn out the bearings?
