Socks Posted July 23, 2013 Author Share Posted July 23, 2013 Nothing much to update at the moment. Had a bit of drama the other day.Went into the garage and there was a tiny puddle of coolant the size of a 50p on the garage floor. Bit of inspecting and I found the issue. Because the front of the car has been redesigned. The radiator is lower and nearer to the gearbox.Didn't realise before but the bottom rad hose had been rubbing on the gearbox on a particular bolt. Which caused a leak. Quick call to Paul @ Roose Motorsport and he made me a new custom bottom rad hose. Which gives perfect clearance to the gearbox and boost pipe! More to Come Folks!
