    Dirty track slag build up gt turbo

    Well i bought my white H reg gt turbo off TrixNFlix about 12 months back, Ive drove it in the same spec as i got it but then started changing a few bits...Now i've always been into the race car look so after some consideration its now under going a HUGE transformation into a full on track/fast road car. Spec is as follows or will do when complete by march.

    Fully stripped out shell
    Plexi windows all round
    carbon fibre bucket seats
    4point harnesses
    4" omp dish steering wheel
    AFR gauge/shift light
    Quick shift
    straight cut gears and reconditioned box
    6 point welded cage
    drag spec incar fuel cell
    high spec fuel pump/filter/regulator/braided lines
    4 pot brakes/ uprated disc's n pads all round
    braided brake lines
    polly bushed throughout
    very expensive coilovers (track spec)
    carbon fibre door cards
    looverd bonnet/4x bonnet pins (lift off bonnet)
    adjustable rear spoiler
    15" turbines matt black
    r888 tyres
    front mounted intercooler
    modified carb
    pace charge cooler
    VNT turbo
    blah blah blah...engine 200+ bhp
    limited slip diff (sooo expensive)
    race graphics

    etc etc etc....


    200+ bhp 200+ft +700kg = beast!

    Ill get some pic's up soon.

    sounds good, although track use and a drag spec fuel tank may be interesting... i thought drag ones only hold a gallon, which would mean couple of laps per tank

    Re: Dirty track slag build up gt turbo

    There is if that's what I want on it!
    I don't want the bald look, I want to make something thats marmite! Love it or hate it it's gonna be something different! I've seen so many 5's spin out on high speed corners that a spoiler is gonna help out some what I'm hoping anyway as its gonna be used hard on track! I don't like the oe look I like extreme track look! Like time attack cars etc...
    If I don't get enough power from the c1j lump to match the looks I'll drop something else Renault inn it!

    Sorry I'm waffling on now!

    I don't really want to put the pic's up just yet as I'm just in the middle of making widened standard arches for the front and back like the prima ones, still need tyres for the new wheels as soon as the arches are finished and the wheels are on I'll get some sneak peak pic's up!
    Another 10k and a ahit load of labour and it should be nearly done!! I hope!

    Re: Dirty track slag build up gt turbo

    Ok weather has been crap today!
    Had plans for dropping the engine now been delayed! I can see this project getting way out of hand, I started this project with a few mods in mind to make it a solid track based road car! Now it's gone into another realm!! I've decided to have the shell sent off for a chemical clean!! 1000 quid!!! Then having loads of work done on the body, cage extended to front suspension mounts, floor mounts boxed inn, extra diagonal in rear and a harness bar! Also tieing the front and sides into the shell, battery shuttle area cut out, inner door metal cut out! Plus any welding to stiffen up weak areas!

    Once all this is done its having a full inside outside respay in brilliant white!

    Custom arches (twice as wide as standard)
    Modified rear bumper with adjustable rear diffuser
    Custom side skirts
    K-tec front bumper modified
    Custom splitter
    Voltex carbon canards
    Lancia Evo mirrors
    Loovered and raised bonnet
    Roof scoop
    Custom fully adjustable rear spoiler
    Poly carb windows all round


    I'm on an iPhone ATM so can't upload any pictures!

    I'll get some up ASAP!

Yellow headlights, fit the rear wing, and coilovers! Getting there....still got the engine to sort out as well! Thanks for the kind words! It wil be getting thrashed to death when completed!

    Lol no its a custom big wing! The top part is a Tarmac spoiler the whole thing is fully adjustable, it's hard to imagine it but once on with the front splitters and canards it just looks right! I'll get some pics up ASAP with the wing installed, also my trick front arches! Looks mean!!

    Lol I've got the seat pads for them! The last seats were shocking! I went out in the car and the seat snapped!!! Never buying cheap eBay stuff again!
    These are strong/light and hold you really firm in place!
