On the mk3 it’s the letter that is of interest, you have B or C depending on your block bore (different from the factory), your block should be a 832. I recommend taking measurements of the bore as they tend to taper depending on age/use which can then be made worse when honed (assuming you are)

Cheers, yeah I should be, it’s up the road for me.

Wow, thanks, all inspired by all the brilliant project threads on here! For some reason I am drawn to things in life I find difficult which is why working on cars / racing is something I really enjoy. 2023 was a bit of a shit show car wise, I have learnt a hell of a lot and enjoyed (most) of...

Lovely, hopefully see this racing around Goodwood next year!

Stole this from facebook, however its only half the story as once you add aerocatches the weight of my CF bonnet is 3.2kg, cheaper ways to lose a kg!

Time and patience, lack of experience has caused all of my mistakes.

Merry Christmas everyone! Picked up the block a few weeks ago but wasn’t until Christmas Eve that I have actually had a day free to get started. She is now bored and honed out to 83mm so removing the out of round/tolerance that I had previously ignored. With time on my side I have taken...

Just to add another opinion, I had black on the front and a superpro on the rear and it caused me issues, basically dynamic toe on acc/deceleration but I think this is more because of the quality of superpro so you will probably be fine.

A few negatives for the bilsteins, no damper adjustment, incorrect spring rates for a standard car and Josh Cook has describes them as ‘shit’

Needed a break after brands hatch, after pulling the engine I spent some time finally tidying up and sorting the lockup. Bench space, racking and some led lights and things are looking 10x better. Did some research on pistons and rods before deciding to take the plunge on some woosner high...

The fact that you don’t see many doing similar answers your question, it seems those that are chasing power go for the PMS 240 package. Solid lifters would be required, you could look at reducing your valve train weight with conical springs which will give you some more head room but you are...

Having looked at a few options for my build, a few things to think about when going 404+: - CatCams recommend removing VVT due to the duration - Large overlap will result in a very high idle (if idling is even possible on stock ECU) - Above 403 and the exhaust lift increases massively so the...

I was going to try adjusting this, if you look at the ECU in ddt4all it has a setting from 1-14 with the RS set to 14 as the default.

Sadly so, that was the quickest from last week and about the average from Jan. Compression has dropped about 5psi after the track day and leak down matches with the bore size against spec. Cylinder 4: 16% Cylinder 3: 17% Cylinder 2: 9% Cylinder 1: 7% It’s a cheap tester so don’t trust the...

Interesting, expected them to be much lower, Andy mentioned that moving the temp sensor into the air box has advantages (if mapped) as the intake manifold gives inaccurate readings due to its position. Blue is January, acceleration is almost flat before braking for Paddock.

For those that want the highlights: The car weighs ~1030kg dry I finished a track day without crashing Handling is the best its been Direzzas are a cut above AR1’s I have a compression problem Geo Dropped the car down to NADUK for him to work his magic, was supposed to be a few hours but...

Haha good work, glad I am not the only one who finds Snetterton tricky in the wet! I found I needed to be completely off the dry line and then pray when crossing it.
