looking good mate, get some more pics up, couple of q's, the rear shim kit is that to run a bit of negative camber at the rear? and also whats the lateral lock kit? never herd of that before cheers

nice motor

Great spec list!

Please can we have more pictures?

Rear shim kit is for toe in, the rear wheels aren't parallel, rather they point in to the chassis.

Lateral lock kit is like an extra bush that fits on the rear beams mounting point to chassis, to stop lateral movement (I'm fitting at the minute)

shim kit is really good, but I have my rear ARB on medium..........I noticed on stiffest, on track I'd lift off oversteer like anything!

I'll clean it up and get some more pictures!

Tried fitting lateral lock kit.............I cant fit it!

The kit is designed for the Fabia bushes, not the Fabia VRS bushes!

However, I'm gonna buy some Powerflex rear beam bushes, and fit it over them :-)

Good spec list, Where are these pics :p

top vrs, looks very slick...whats the 0-60 0-100 times? and top end of course?

Id guess around low 6's to 60mph

And high 13's to 100mph

Nice car OP

Nice ride! Am I right in saying you're currently running a turbo technics turbo? and you've taken it to allard for improvements?

It's gone off the clock..........140ish in real life maybe?

It was an Allard VT2, but rebuilt to the same spec as the Stage 2 turbo dynamics.

Will be for sale along with the downpipe shortly.

No recent pictures, just in the process of giving it an overhaul......Wheels are currently being refurbed, new aerial on order, new turbo on order, just had bushes installed again, gotta fit new rear discs......Hoping to get some piccys up soon though :-)

badass

Here's my new turbo........none of this Hybrid melarkey!

Kinda jealous!

Here's my new turbo........none of this Hybrid melarkey!

nice. kinda very much looking forward to replacing my current hybrid VNT17 with a 2260

So when is this beast going to be on the road?

Fitting turbo on Friday/Saturday.

Then spending some time mapping it, and we'll start getting some figures bhp/1/4 etc.

It's gonna pretty much be a rolling advert for Darkside developments, and I'm gonna be assisting with people who buy the kits for the Fabia.

who's mapping it?

What kind of engine power are you aiming for?

Any engine internal mods?

I'm aware they do mapping, they also do stuff like uprated injectors, rods etc but there's no mention of them being fitted so I didn't make assumptions about who's mapping it. either way, I'm very interested in the results as I'll have pretty much the same engine spec

A subject of much debate!

No internal mods, not going for very high figures, and I'm in a position that if it does blow up, I'm not too fussed about sourcing a new engine and fitting.

Power wise, probaly 230bhp with stock injectors, then 260 with Darkside development ones.

Oh, open heart surgery has commenceed!

Being as it was going to be a rolling advert for Darkside I just assumed you'd be going for the mega turbo and 340bhp.

Can't afford headwork, new injectors, new valves, cam, Rods in one go.

We're stuck at the minute, air con pipe is touching the manifold!!
