Titan mate, they are a pain to fit i hear, you planning on doing lots of drag racing? if not id not bother tbh, i never had one. Maybe go with a gearbox blanket if worried.
-
I'd be up for a meet in Scotland at some point, get some nice driving roads in.
-
Not worth the risk, I'd replace it.
-
Measures over 4" across the flange mate, if its any good let me know and I will send out. http://just.razzi.me/photos/906088/19b8856.jpg http://just.razzi.me/photos/906081/19b8856.jpg

John, have you got and intercooler pipe to come off the bottom of that turbo made up? if not i have one in the garage that might be perfect with the flange and clamp on it.
-
Some name ideas would be great, maybe bringing into the names that its a 1/2 mile event?
-
Single turbo auto with a built box and high stall is the perfect drag weapon Rob.
-
I'd talk to somebody that has fitted the kit, Robbie on this forum had one for a short while iirc, I think he had issues with the car though and went back to a stock engine. The name cosworth does not mean it will be faultless, there version 1 GTR pistons are terrible and they stopped making them, serious piston slap with them, the latest ones are fine I hear.
-
That's the idea mate, the 1/4 and 1/2 mile timing is done on every run you make, if you don't want to run the full 1/2 mile just let off after the 1/4.
-
That will be up to Branners and depending on numbers I guess, it's normally opened up to other clubs as we struggle to make the numbers work sometimes, last year sky insurance saved the day buying a load of tickets.
-
The place is huge mate, plenty of parking and looking into a large marquee, it's all depends on cost though.
-
Same place. That was in the winter, it's to dangerous IMO doing the mile long events as you are doing silly speeds, 1/4 and 1/2 mile is far safer.

Your car should know its own way there http://www.javelintrackdays.co.uk/trackday/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=6 30 seconds into the video is Woodbridge.
-
Yeah true, Paul lists them at 104db, not sure if mine was a different one, Paul can confirm.
-
One of Paul's 4" twin box systems would be good I'd have thought.
-
Looking at google map, from scotland its an extra 57 miles than the pod, thats nothing for an epic event like this
-
I tried that, my wife got fed up with stubble rash on her chin though.
-
105db at 3/4 max revs is pretty loud, my car measures 97db at 5500rpm. Not yet, I'm on it though.
-
DB limits are at all tracks now, even santapod has a DB limit of 105db as of this year. Speaking with Javelin 105db is the max and its a static test, i passed it twice at woodbridge with my Supra running at the thunder road events.
-
At the moment it is subject to dates and how much it costs, the guy at Javelin is working on it over xmas and will give me a full breakdown early in the new year
-
Non return valve on top of the pumps is the normal? thats how mine was, dont remember anything else, try upping the pressure and see if any leaks appear?
-
The thrill, nothing comes close to being pushed back in your seat in a high powered car, blowing away the odd supercar is an added bonus.
-
Woodbridge is a big track, have a look at the link, top right corner would be used for the 1/2 mile stuff, track stuff never seems as popular as 2 lane racing, track events struggle to get even a few members interested in past years.

Is there any nice orange or other bright glossy 3M car wrap colour?

GTR is £1400 all done by PW Pro, id imagine mine would be even cheaper as they would not have to do the front lip, spoiler, side skirts or rear valance.
