AMD87

Coil spring assisters used for towing caravans 🤣

Some videos from Crail on Sunday, tried a new rear suspension mod to help stiffen it up, didn't improve the 60ft as planned but improved the 1/8 mile by .1 and the 1/4 by .2 so i'm guessing it's stopping the pitching the car does during the gear changes. Best times were 0 - 60mph in 5.47 seconds 0 - 100mph in 11.86 seconds 1/4 mile 13.590 @ 108.70mph Then yesterday took a trip down to Croft with Darkside Developments and spent time time with Tomas who mapped my car and went out in his Monte Carlo as well

Well safe to say it was fairly shifting today.

Another clip

Busy last couple of weekends, took the car to crail again no faster times but 0-60 down to 5.67 seconds and 0-100 down to 12.2 seconds Then the past weekend went to the Scottish Festival of Motoring and stuck it on the dyno, first time i've done a show with it since the build and was surprised at how many people knew about it and came up asking about the car. Then after the show another member had cracked a wheel when in scotland on holiday so 130 mile trip to help him out and give him a wheel so he can get home over the next 3 weeks have 2 more shows and another day at crail, few ideas to help it get faster at crail.

and yet here’s me getting 3.5 bar over other OBD programmes bar 1 app……

Yet when you plug in a datareader into the OBD it reads more...... Not sure if you're actually reading the posts correctly....... The app developers admitted that it was due to the VE on the app not correctly set up. Reads fine on petrols just not on diesels.

so the map sensor that actually reads correctly as stated in the previous reply since its a 4 bar sensor.......

no cause I can get the true boost reading from the ecu and map sensor and on the meth trigger kit…….

It's not though as it would never peak more than 22psi when the car is making 34/35psi of boost

Me and Bobby had our yearly meet up at the weekend, was good to see him and the 1.6 Golf again

Probably not but I’d bleed them anyway but that’s just me

288s and 312 callipers are the same. Only the carriers and discs are different.

No it’s under the cat that’s on the left. The one circled is sensor 1

The one under the cat

You need to know what sensor it is. There’s at least 4 egt sensors

Stuck the new tyres on on Friday after work and then did a 300 mile drive on Saturday to scrub them in before Crail on sunday New tyres did seem to make a big difference with every single run bar 2 was in the 13's 1 due to missing 2nd and the other the time gear failed and had my and the other car as a jump when we didn't even move. Fastest time was 13.700 @ 109mph and 0-60 down to 5.6 seconds

Nope longest drive shaft and they were a Y rating so 186mph

It’s fine

No idea it was on the inside of the tyre as well. It looks like it might have been like that a while though looking at the stress marks.

Well think these are done. Time to stick on the winter wheels.

Hutchy fitted it originally then when darkside had the car last year they used mine to redesign it and make it a better fit.

Even then I’m sure post of us didn’t have the urge to pull the handbrake while driving in a straight line going through a crowd of folk maybe in an empty car park in the snow though.

You’re welcome.
