spot on chap. nice work on the wobbly arch too looks pissed

as already said really looking forwad to seeing/hearing this wee beast at PV mate

nice reduction in weight really on the fly. IIRC this makes the car rev alot freeier/quicker doesn't it or something along those lines?

i have flat type flywheel already. maybe a mod too look into the future if it makes 'that' much difference?

Thats it mate.
As said I have spaces for mig stickers, just can't afford them atm due to more inportant bits etc. If two were donated would be great Plus would be a good advertisement!

There are no inter-site wars, any of that is in the past.
Both of the admins of www.vauxsport.com use MIG and both intend to continue to do so.

We are catering for a niche, MIG covers the whole vauxhall scene, the two are not in direct competition as far as im concerned, we dont actually want anyone to stop using MIG, nor do we want everyone on MIG to move over to VS, our little server couldnt cope with MIGs traffic and we done have the infrastructure or the number of rooms etc to cope with it either even if we moved to a bigger server.

PS

As our cars are supposed to match, if you do put some on the rear side windows, then if Tom sends me some too, I will do the same on the black car as well

Well I've actually given up beer, and only drinking other drinks. Recently everytime I've drank i've ended up paying hardcore the next day. I hardly drink when out any more. I'll see how it goes!

Don't wanna feel like last year at PV, or the year before!

Ok todays update now...
Door got played with... Man angle grinding in shorts and a T is hardcore!


When Vauxhall built the nova they knew we would be doing naughty things to it. In this case they new I'll be running a stripped one with an XE on TBS with a bit of nos through a controller... Vauxhall made the controller mount, purrfect.


Ze switch of ' Sh*t theres a (enter exotic car here), where's me noz bruv'



Trumpet fun, was easy as pie, carbon fibre is easy to drill though


So did it to all four... (best bit is the injector actually screws in)


I also made myself a bracket for the pulsoids and thought I'ld put the air temp sensor in there too (anyone know what thread it is )


Nos is now fully wired up, with the TPS unit as well. I just need to connect one wire to the TPS unit. (anyone know what wires what?)


I guess i';ll be using both of these at PV...


Anyone in the south east know of anywhere near London to fill them?

Why do you want strong doors? Fibreglass ones aren't strong... I have a big roll cage bar between me and the door... There mainly there for window regulators and what not... look at a Ferrari Fiorino..



nos

Door will be weakened a touch but, like it matters? Probably still more rigidity than there is in the whole of a Citroen AX!

Nice moddin Fly!
