I had issues with the turbo I bought one week it was almost ready to send next week it was finished and ready to send then the next week it wasnt ready. Communication wasnt the best and waited much longer than he origanaly said it would take for the turbo. The turbo is still not fitted as I ran out of time but hopefully I will have it fitted soon and it would have been worth the wait.

Spotted an orange glanza with black bonnet on the way down to Kent yesterday.

Just about to head to Dover for the ferry off to the ring

Where about is he from?

Lovely build mate stunning car

I would like to thank all the traders on here I've delt with for parts and advice

some update Got the car back from the bodyshop the other week and its flawless really happy with it. Got the new frp bootlid on and poly windows, door bars and harnesses in.

Dean from rw developments made me a baffled sump so got that on ready for going to the nurburgring next week.

I had problems with my clutch which turned out the be the clutch fork which had split so had to take the box off and weld the fork back together also added some steel plates to strengthen the fork

takata tow strap

what you guys think

How would you reinforce it??

I have a spare anyway. don't have anytime to get something made up.

Tell me about it a right pain. Box has only been on 1500 miles new clutch and LSD. Away a week Sunday to the ring so gotta get it done this weekend. Only worry is how long will the next fork last. Any traders fancy making an upgrade??

Yeh that's what I was told. I'm using the 4 paddle competition clutch from race tech.

Anyone put a crack in the fork before?

Mines just done it and almost impossible to drive and select gear cause if the flex in the fork. Got to take the box of and replace it. Gotta happen two weeks before I got to the ring aswell. Got a stage 4 clutch in only done about 1500 miles on it.

Anyone had this problem?

Solutions uprated fork or anything ?

Yeh give me a shout any time.

Nice to meet ya on Saturday night bud.

Nice to meet ya on Saturday night bud.

A company called plastics for performance dude.

Yeh I will be delighted with that kind of power will just wait and see.

It will be custom made to suit my side exit when I get it on mate. Bit gutted I don't have time before I go away would have been good. When I get back will get the turbo and water injection all set up.

He ain't cheap but you pay for what you get. He's putting a lot of work into my car. I know a guy that went else where after a quote from tj and ended up putting his car back to the company 3 times to get it sorted and ended up going just black in the end. Not heard a bad thing about tj so pretty confident the car will be flawless when done.

Yeh it's at TJ's in elgin. Great guy highly recommend him

Might get away with the door bars as the are pretty low and aren't about the seat ??

I have recaro evo seats in.

Yeh I will look into the rules thanks might leave them off till after just to be safe thanks

Don't worry will have plenty good stuff for the 85 still collecting parts for the engine for it
