    Re: Camparse

    AHOY SHIPMATE! Great news your back in the game, looking forward to some more camparse progress!

    Get it on the road and get boosting! Took mine out for a dust off today, really enjoyed Dartmoor tarmac. It is great to re-discover the 5 after a few weeks out of it!



    Long live the king

    Re: Camparse

    thought id give you lot an update

    IT'S ALIVE... got the engine back together with new pistons and liners and started it up . fired up first time no probs apart from forgeting to fit the oil filter opppss the contents of the sump are now all over the garage floor. nice mess

    got the oil filter on and ran it up again . sounds realy good and angry. a few lads pop out to the garage woundering wot the hell it was making all that noise . ha ha it still has the straight through side pipe on, wich will be comming off for road use

    cant wait to put it on the road and find out if the rebuild has given it more power than before

    Re: Camparse

    update

    been doing loads of stuff to the old french bitch .
    loads of new stuff has gone on it . revamped stuff anyways still trying to keep it as cheap as pos . major cost was 4 nice new tyres to go on the 19,ph1,alloys.

    fitted the road legal exhaust ~ std front pipe with a pico big bore rear box nice and quiet at 87db

    ive done several cheack lecky mods that i hope are gonna work . like, i fitted a soleniod to the idle jet so i can turn off the fueling on over run for some nice popping and banging. working on turning the alt off when at full throttle is next

    all the brakes are under going a major overhaul.. this was a wise move as i found the rear brake pipe looking a bit rusty and on removing them one split and started leacking .. so its all new metal brake pipes to the rear

    the suspention has been reworked for road use, front end is all set up with 1.5° of camber and the rear has been lifted by 5mm

    many days just tinkering around sorting things out. but all is going well so far. cant wait till its on the road propperly
