  4. that looks sick !!!!!!!!! OMG I want BBS RS301's now !!!!!
  5. Evening chap... you not on msn? I'm earthing it to the cross member going from one rear chassis leg to the other (put it through the spare wheel well and bolted it like that) HOWEVER !! I think there is some paint between the bolt and the cross member, so I might get the grinder out tomorrow as I bet its not getting a good contact... does that make sense?
  6. ok guys I had a few hours today to get some work done on the C. I managed to get everything back together engine wise and turned the key at about 9 this evening.. I'm only getting 10.1 volts to the coils, which isn't enough for a spark. I might move the batt to the engine bay as I've had enough of this problem! Basically I have voltage loss somewhere.. either the earth isn't good enough or the 300 amp cable for the positive isn't playing ball! Really want to get it started and back together tomorrow! ANY IDEAS about the voltage loss ????? Found this pic when it was at jabba for mapping at the beginning the year.. bit dirty mind.. and nice and high for the rollers.. Pics of the engine bay etc coming tomorrow/monday.. Ben

  13. umm i hit the starter motor a little hard and cracked the solenoid :D Should be purring this weekend.. I've PM'd you my email address....
  14. I've used a newly developed see-through paint, do you like it?
  15. Thought it was time for a small update, basically the engine is back in, I'm just wanting on a couple of parts and it should be good to fire up next weekend, if all goes well. I've repaired the rallye gearbox and put that back together. The clutch now has new torqued bolts along with the flywheel. The new much larger downpipe just fits, we are talking mm's clearence and I've done a bit of painting so all the ali parts on the engine look nice and new.. I will have some proper pics for you guys at the weekend but here is the engine bay as off about 4 weeks ago just after I finished painting. Still need to G3 quite alot of the bay but tbh I just want to drive it!! Its booked in to go back to jabba for some fine tuning just before Worthersee. The day before in fact. Anyway it might be gracing the roads of england shortly! ??? Ben
  16. what octane is shell v power..? obviously i can't aford this new 102 stuff but need to get the best fuel in the car for when it goes back to Jabba to be fine tuned...
  17. It really does look great mate! Mine is almost back together, should have it drivable this weekend, then i just need to fit an alarm and do a couple of other bits and its ready for an MOT :D
  18. that is very cool! Its going to redefine the meaning of 'fast' imo ! :D
  19. Bill, that looks stunning! congrats!!!!
  20. fastgerman Notwendigkeiten Abbildungen der blanken Deutscher auf es wirklich schnelles laufen lassend
  21. I would have said modding the headlight would be the best thing to do. A mate fitted mk1 golf front indicators (signals) into a corrado headlight, turning it 90 degress and placing it inbetween the full beam and dipped beam. Having said that there are easier ways than that.
