Your Winter Projects!!

[Matt Cole]

Come on chaps, lets have some info on your winter project/improvements for 2011! This site has become stagnant of late for anything technically interesting!!:cry:

[benj88]

Hopefully have my rebuilt c1j in the bay soon, replaced nearly everything, iv had the t25 stripped down and rebuilt so hopefully get in the quatre mile game next year :)

[Adey aka Ewok]

Thinking the same thing bud, I'm on supercharging the clio

[philr5t]

im not far off finishing my project now plan to have it finished and up and running by the end of jan hopefully mot'd and taxed to next year then back to the bodyshop for a couple more small jobs to be done and then finally once run in stick it on the rollers and see what sort of power i can get out of it

and then finally rag the arse off it at the pod and see what goes wrong :wasntme::scratch::cry:

[SP33DY]

400bhp :)

[rs250nut]

Building a monster Honda hopefully to race in the Hks drag series next year all, starts on the 22nd of April and I still don't have a car.

[Brigsy]

Too cold to go in the garage at moment until heating is sorted out:crap: i do have some tricks up my sleeve though;)

[Markey Mark (BD)]

For me i've got my continuing B18ft engine 5 (red one), i've kept it quiet on here but slow steady progress is being made :)

I poss got new basic B18FT going in the campus too, oil pumps gone again in the C1J (killed turbo again :() so thats coming out.

Also got little side project of a F7P powered 5 too, just a quick conversion to do, get it road legal and then sell on once had little blast in it.

Brigsy you wimp! Least you got unit i have a garage which has car in it so i'm suck working on the drive :D

[sieger]

well i'm gonna put a new engine in (B18FT)

with BIG MOD ecu ( boost till 1.8 Bar )
350 cc injectors
''E" cam.
TD04 Turbo (max rated for 270 BHP)
and some other mod's

[Ashy]

401bhp ;)

[andyrg]

phase 1 trophy turbo :)

[philg]

Boring really, just some big brakes i think and get a few niggles ironed out.

[Matt Cole]

I need to sort windscreen surround out (weld new in) fit new 4 pots, remove turbo for a re-work and get bigger injectors as the standard 225 ones are maxed out. Get a remap with more boost and hopefully sit the power around 300bhp!:D


Lets have some progress pictures up chaps!!:agree:

[Matt Cole]

Oh and have a B18FT lump to drop in my brother jont gob's 5, and then a rebuild of chunk the Goonies C1J for more power.

Could be a good year 2011!:D

That will be an absolute weapon :agree:

[philr5t]

it sounds like there will be some very quick 5's out next year who is predicting what times they will run next year

ill start and i am aiming to get low 12's high 11's to start and i will push as much as i
can to hit my first target
:)

[jimmy_b]

my winter project is to keep the 5 warm in the garage and use it next yr

[benj88]

I'm aiming for 13s :)

[philr5t]

I'm aiming for 13s :)


i would think you would get that mate when i first owned my 5 i ran a 14 dead @ 97 mph standard engine standard boost and road tyres :sad2:

[benj88]

That's good for standard though? Iv seen c20lets do 14s that were running a lot of bhp. I will be doing runs with my road tyres

[Brigsy]

i would think you would get that mate when i first owned my 5 i ran a 14 dead @ 97 mph standard engine standard boost and road tyres :sad2:

Definately wasnt standard power if you ran 97mph through the trap, more like 170-180hp

[rat1]

i would think you would get that mate when i first owned my 5 i ran a 14 dead @ 97 mph standard engine standard boost and road tyres :sad2:

i think the time for a standard 5 is about 15.5

[philr5t]

Definately wasnt standard power if you ran 97mph through the trap, more like 170-180hp

i am almost positive the engine had never been worked i got the car from an old family friend and he owned it for years and it was standard when i had the car it still had a baby t2 on it with a standard cam i done 5 runs that day and they were all between 14 and 14.4 seconds running no more than 11psi and on dunlop sp1 tyres

i must just be a fantastic driver :p

[The new Bill J]

The book time for a standard gtt is 16.0 @ 86mph IIRC.

[BluntyR5GTT]

plans for mine are as follows wash, ag hd paint cleanser, ag hd wax then cover it up for a month or 2

then its the following in no particular order

fit 285 cam, vernier and springs
fit t25 or t28 turbo with .63 t2 rear
set boost at 20psi
re jet carb (set up on wideband)
fit fmic
fit rear strut brace
fit new heater matrix hoses
fit new rad hose
fit new turbo to water pump hose
get new rear tyres (uniroyal rainsport 2)
get louvered bonnet and open mouth front grille sprayed and fitted and also get bodywork tarted up

then enjoy :D

[5teve L]

I plan on dropping the F7P in low boost conversion for now while I build another engine up for more boost, prob won't push that one much over 300bhp though as the gearboxes prob won't like it :crap:

[PaulM]
