Busy week ahead then

[GreddyMR2]

A bit of fluids and trunk locks for my Pinkie

[GreddyMR2]

Todays evening work.
I kinda like that matt pink color

[Magic Beans]

I didn't realise just how pink it was. Very masculine indeed

Hehe, don't be so sarcastic
One thing I know that if I will repaint my car some day, it will be ferrari red or something like that Or I would like to try red matte...

[Magic Beans]

Matte would look good

[GreddyMR2]

Just forgot to tell that I sold my R18 5Zigens... I will miss them really...

And here are some pics from last event. That time I finished 2nd in 2500+ class. Next time I hope to do better

Also, I put 2cm spacers in front, and wheels are totally flush now
Look at the first photo at a front tyre... It looks like it will soon get off the wheel. These are Toyo T1R, would be great tyres, if sidewalls would be stiffer.

[GreddyMR2]

OK, spoiler is almost ready
Only side flaps left and I will raise a rear part of spoiler a bit, because it's now lacks of adjusment a little.

For tommorow I need to change g-box oil, brake fluid, mount a tyres, change clutch pedal and some other little things

Is the height of the spoiler uprights a calculated choice?

I wanted spoiler to be at the same height as a roof, but it's a bit lower.
I didn't calculated anything...

Or do you mean angle?

[Magic Beans]

Ahh ok. Just interested to know if there's a benefit of having it higher or not, as mine's obviously not as high. Always looking to learn

As from reading and listening other opinions, the higher the spoiler is the cleaner air it gets making more downforce
Of course it's no point to make it like in that old Plymouth (you know what I mean..)

By the way, Phil, your old turbo should be rebuilt tommorow Guys told me it has the best parts possible, but was totally dead and needed full rebuid.

[Magic Beans]

Yeah, the seals were shot so it burnt oil

It was great when I first got the car and it needed replacing then. So once it's rebuilt it should be awesome

[GreddyMR2]

I hope I will have time to installl it next month. Although before I need to buy braided oil feed/return lines and flanges. Also, I will have to buy all manifold / turbo gaskets.

I hope I will feel a big improvement compared to CT26

It should feel much more linear than the CT26 and not fall off the cliff when revved

[GreddyMR2]

OK, finally came home from a garrage.

The car is ready for tommorrows time attack.

G-Box oil changed;
Brake fluid changed;
Tyres mounted;
Spoiler finished;
Some other small things done

[Magic Beans]

Interested to hear what difference it's made

[GreddyMR2]

Interested to hear what difference it's made

To speak short, the difference is really feelable, I think. No more going sidways through the corner, more stable.

Now about a time.
Last year in our track time was 1.26.xx
Yesterday time was 1.27.3xx, but you can minus about 2-3s, because there was an additional chicane. So time was improved.

So yesterday in my class (street 2500+) I was 5th from 17, while last year I was 8th from 15 or something like that.

I will be soon uploading an onbord

P.S. I had some problems with my MBC and I could reach only 0,8bar max instead of 1,1...

A couple of pictures now

[GreddyMR2]

My best lap at yesterdays time attack
Wheels were a bit loo wide, will have to widen arches for a bit next time

Good skills

Is that the tyres rubbing slightly you can hear on the videos then?
