Got all the lights sorted and the new reg put on
5-21-2021
We managed to get up to Crail on Sunday just there for a 1st test, only appear to have pictures of the car on the trailer haha
Was brilliant to finally get a shot :D
Had an issue with what seemed to be fuel starvation, Ebay cheap 'walbro 255' looked to not be up to the job so has since been replaced with a proper item from Torques Hopefully that sorts that
Some tweaks to be made before next test in a few weeks, Front to be dropped 25mm, Play with adjustment on rear coilovers to stiffen up, Replace rear hub bearings and look at rear bushes - got some from Floflex whilst we wait on the Powerflex coming but they are a terrible fit - there is a lot of movement overall at the rear wheels
Ordered LSD from Gripper Diffs and a 5.84 final drive to pop in at the same time
Also need to suss out why the brake fluid reservoirs are weeping out the bottom
Engine and box out, Hopefully LSD and Final Drive will arrive today or tomorrow
Gearbox apart
Gripper diff arrived :D
Waiting on new diff bearings and final drive to be delivered

Really cool, don’t have much like this in the states. You guys really got some of the best hot hatches.

This is going to have some serious lighting I can see, going to make a great rally car. What color are you planning on going with?

Thanks! Undecided on colour as of yet probably white and then we'll wrap it from there

Good call, and being a rally car there are a lot of great color schemes you can choose from
