At least it will meet modern regs and be pedestrian safe been padded n all. Seriously though keep it who else can i pick on if you sell up.

How is it with the syncro gears then as i thought that was the weak point in gearboxes alot of the time, i like the idea of the 6 speeders but not a dog box as it does get used on the road and they can be a hinderance more than anything in normal driving.

Oh yes its the bra too :lol: as ya already know. Keep it dude

Totally agree it should take a full day to be completed properly and professionally, i was told the same but got it back 3 hours earlier as they had a cancellation so had 2 fitters on my car. Never ever had any issues of any kind with my alarm Clifford Concept 500 G4 and been in 5 years. Well 1 small thing, the 2 button thing to put your code in for valet/programming/black jax, well the contacts fail and the button stops working eventually, had 3 in 5 years but they do get alot of use with the black jax, never had to pay for new 1's though and 2 minute job to change. If you have black jax on and the button fails then there is a way round it to still drive your car but im not going to announce it on a forum even though some people will already know. Just remember never ever turn the ignition on then touch the brake with the engine started before putting the code in if the door has been opened.

1 thing i will say is do not use black jax, have it turned off for a couple of days, get used to the alarm then get it turned on, sounds daft i know but you will understand once its in. Also Cliffords do have as you know alot of adjustability, it is easy for the installer to se up but it may need a slight bit of tweaking to suit you.

:pukeright:

No idea but i have most of those wires switching through 2 i think...

In all honesty you do not notice it too much on part throttle just cruising along, the corrado is well sound deadened so windows up its hardly there, window open and its LOUD again.

I would always go Clifford.

Yes the black 1 that was owned by Janet, she sold that and bought a Mk4 then totally white leathered everything in the interior with the dimandesqe wheels @ ED38 2007

I love black jax. Open any door and it then wants the code inputting, you dont have a set amount of time to put it in, its only when you press the brake pedal that it activates it all. So your waiting at some lights god forbid you get car jacked, door opens you get out gladly no hassle with them, they set off driving very fast down the road most likely, they press the brake pedal and it activates everything, now it will only cut the engine out once its below a certain rev limit or speed, so if they manage to get on a motorway they can theoretically drive for quite a distance, until the speed drops, which is inevitable, now whilst they are driving, unknown to them the alarm is turning the brake lights on and off repeatedly to warn the drivers behind something will happen in front. Once below the rev it needs it will cut the engine and ignition lights and the only thing to stop the alarm going off and so on is to input the code.

Very nice but i would have stuck with the Ultima dude, and how the hell do you fit in it :shrug: :scratch: :lol:

Its all definately undecided at the minute on everything :lol: except big power. Never intended to use the VVT and 30psi sounds bloody good to me, read people going from 5psi to 30psi in the space of 500rpm or less :lol: and spinning at the top of each gear :lol: Having never driven a VAG turbo i cant comment, good job i like shocks to the system then....only definate and the main reason to build the engine like that is to scare :fondle: Toad and Rob some more.

I know there are the 6 speed gearbox kits but what im saying is they used to do a conversion kit to convert your 5 speeder to a six speeder.

Just had a look on their site and i cant find it now but it was a kit to convert your 5 speed box into a 6 speed, not actually buying the 3k kit.

Cool sounds good, so what works out best then doing that box swap or using the quaiffe 6 speed kit, not the full box of goodies but they do like an extended something or another to add a 6th to the box in the car.

Which 1 are you on about the 1 right at the bottom of somebody's site from here page? If so i think there was a thread a couple of years ago that a guy wanted to use 1 but never did for whatever reason i dont know, he bought 1 and everything. Not planning to use any DBW, good old throttle cable for me with a suitably specced set of cams for the rev range.

Thats kind of the plan to be honest Rob, im not getting it built to specifically do 1/4's but i would and will do them occasionally, also it will be getting built by a guy who does 1/4's all day long :norty: very quickly :notworthy: Its not a daily by any means especially with todays rapidly rising fuel costs but just a weekend toy every now and then.

You have not by anymeans poo'd on the plans mate, it would take much more than that to put me off. It will have shortish gears not entirely sure on what though but using your theory with the final drive, i was thinking of going 0.82 but not knowing too much on turbos i cant answer how that will drive, i think its bigish but not too big. I see mine boosting similar to yours with mine having the smaller turbo on a smaller engine but a like for like comparison they will be similar, not that its my aim to build it driving similar to yours but thats how i imagine it will turn out in the end. Im not taking it out to 2 litres but 1900 and have not decided on the manifold yet but probably a tubular design. I know for sure i will be taking it up to high revs, we have good track style roads around Rotherham :lol: or at least thats how they get used by me :clap:

Also the quaiffe and the peloquinn are essentially the sme.

Good idea but agree with Furki, by the time you have done it with your track record they will be on the R50

Interesting stuff, all i know is it will have a significant investment going into it and the idea of going to 8.5k was to give a wider power band as unlike the 12v/24v using the GT3076R it will have lag in it on the 20v. As with all things they are only plans and ideas i have so lets see how they come out.

For the rev counter you need a signal converter type thingy from Jabbasport about £50 ish

Indeed :lol: :lol: :lol: but at least i have the light now :wink:

You program them yourself so you can choose whichever revs you fancy. Methinks you need an engine first Simon! Yes im down with both facts :lol: i already have 1 of these kits fitted but i am unsure if there is a maximum rev range it can go to??? I do actually have an engine just not 1 i wish to use any further in this car at least, i do however want to keep the engine as it is truly awesome and would be good in something like a mk1 etc, something truly oldskool kool
