PITAs GW 200 FF Cup

[PITA]

Here’s my glacier white full fat with cup suspension 200.


I bought her standard apart from some Cooksport springs and the wheels being diamond cut

I’ve bought some OZ Ultraleggera off @suj, had them refurbed in matte black and shod in some 225/45/17 AD08RS’





Plans are to get the Gaz Golds I’ve ordered from @R27WTF fitted and setup by Supreme Motorsport with the enlarged top mount.

Then it’ll be an Akrapovic at RSTuning.

Looks great Craig, the wheels were from Usman not me (I know us Asians look the same haha).

Looks spot on, will look and drive great on the Gaz's

What a pleb I am, I completely forgot about Usman!

I may need your help fitting some Recaros, you sound like the man in the know in regards to resistors etc!

Got a set of resistors soldered here with the correct clips to push into the connector, lock in and not fall out, so let me know when you do.

If you’re taking the car to Matt to have the coilovers fitted, flutter your eyelashes at him and he’ll code them out if that’s easier for you!

Cars looking great btw

 

[PITA]

Dropped the Recaros in with the help of @suj pre wired resistors!

 

[suj]

No problem at all, happy to help, the seats are so beautiful! I should have just put them in my car and given you my Recaros

Plus I’ve got to change the OSF shock so I can get to Supreme for the Gaz Golds

Need more hours in the day.

 

[PITA]

Semi productive day today! Managed to change the knackered OSF shock as well as remove the front bumper for my local air con guy to replace my condenser.

[PITA]

New condenser was fitted but the performance was really poor still. I’ve got a new compressor on order and I’ll change that whilst the front end looks like this.

Managed to fit the powerflex to the upper torque arm and into the lower mount. Thanks to @RSRowe for the bushes, I’ve got the ARB and wishbones to fit which are going to be a nightmare.

 

[RSRowe]

Got there in the end didn’t we

 

[PITA]

These sexy things are with @R27WTF awaiting fitment

 

[RSRowe]

Look real nice them! Me and 4 mates have ordered sets from Matt.
Just waiting for Gaz to pull their fingers out now

So nice arnt they... glad Gaz pulled their finger out and did topmounts for the later versions.
What spring rates you gone for..

 

[R27WTF]

They are nice.

It took us months of back and forth and test designs to get the top mounts right.

Gaz are on hold atm as they are waiting in springs to come in [emoji2357]

From the look of them they’ll fit both, the 3 bolts look adjustable to suit both.

I don’t know the rates, Matt @R27WTF picked them

Matt’s been patient with me being impatient lol, these seem to have taken forever but I’m glad they’re here now!

 

[RSRowe]

I assume the adjustability you’re speak of is to adjust the castor angle (which I didn’t actually realise they had)
It’s like the final piece of the puzzle for yours. But I suspect there will be more mods soon

Ours will turn up when they turn up. Just itching to test them out now. Hopefully they come early enough for us to sneak another trackday in before the Ring in October.

Cheeky afternoon off work and I managed to swap the AC compressor and fit the powerflex lower mount.




For reference it’s a piece of piss. Loosen the belt tensioner and remove the belt from the compressor pulley, undo the nuts holding the pipes onto the compressor and pull the pipes away, undo the 3 bolts holding the compressor to the mounting bracket and remove. My new compressor didn’t come with oil so I had to add 150ml of PAG 46 oil. On refitting oil the pipe o rings and you’re good to go.
