What's wrong with it... Just a little bit cut off hahaSorry I should of said what havemt you done to it lol
You should do the sameI see only a small.bit lol
Change them... U don't need a bumperna already got plans for mine
Don't worry you still get bonus points for building the car, I just drive it. haha, yes the rear one is long gone. I spent 10 mins. Sorry. I did actually say when I was doing it that you were going to kill me. My oil, bay and engine temps have reduced dramaticallyThat the super s bumper I spent days carefully fibre-glassing and spraying to allow more air to the IC ? ;D
edit: but at least there is some of it left which is more than can be said for the rear one eh

my 200mm full-face organic helix clutch handles the 160ftlb 160bhp on track no prob at all nowadays, and that's only using 50% of the surface cos my flywheel was machined concave.
so 150ftlb should be a pieceapizz.
the ceramic paddles are a very hard tough material so will hardly wear but it will indeed chew through the softer steel flywheel/PP especially when it's abused on a drag strip or track

suppose the paddle arrangement promotes a harder high-pressure bite but during traffic jams it tends to shudder/chatter during slippage.
I used to have a thin ultra-light JUN flywheel and although it reduced the time for the rpm to blip during heel toe and for the rpm to drop fast during up shifts, it had a very limited heat-soak, heat-sink capacity. so coupled with a small-area paddle clutch it was more likely to overheat quickly and glaze permanently under intense stress.
with the 8kg stock flywheel here I just get used to waiting for the fly to gradually slow down during upshifting.
Could aways be given to me? I can give you more love than she will ever give you.Well... Uni is done... And I got a 2:1 with honours... Bit of a kick in the teeth as I was well on to a first until something went tits up.. Nvm. So the turbo... The car has a clutch ready to go in, unrated bearings, going to get a lower strut brace. Needs it's Geo set up. The car is going to be focused for track and then will be given to bethan.. I will hit 200 then I will be going to a pulsar.

Nope, cause you have failed turbo build already you are void out of the lottery mateCould aways be given to me? I can give you more love than she will ever give you.
its over rated mate.I dont even get what any of this degree stuff is. Proves how smart I am!
Thanks man, there may be some actual updates in the future re. the car, as time is generally more available now woo! hows your motor going, how has the series been too? results?Congrats on the 2:1 mate!
huggyy boiiii, thanks man, of course I dont. noddie and I went to Oxford Brookes together, so you might wanna ask for his opinion too. I really like Brookes, the lecturers are very down to earth and all of them it seems are involved in the industry and how real life ability which is great; I think they have a policy for lecturers to have on going employment in the field. I did a course in Networking Engineering, I would personally not go to University knowing what I know now. I am not a theory boy, more of a hands on type and I could of worked my way up the ranks for that really. Having a degree however just makes life easy when applying for a job.Well done if you don't mind me asking, what course and where was it that you did it? I'm uni searching at the mo
I will be going back to work mate, I came from a real job, I was self employed and made a happy + average so that may be on the cards. I do however enjoy the luxury of monthly payments and lack of seasonal fluctuation so I may just be boring and get a job for someone else Masters, I was invited back to trial a new course in a year... we shall see what happens; I would ideally like for someone else to pay for it mind.Congratulation man. What you going to do now? Find a real job or carry on master degree?

Yeah I know that one mate, its just a prerequisite to get the foot in the door for interviews... only reason I went to Uni! Thank you mate, much appreciated. Yeah I do find it funny I have just spent 30K on educating myself just to get myself 'in the door'..stupidCongrats on the 2:1, better than my drinkers degree (2:2).
From now on, the grade you got will made little to no difference to further education and even less in the world of work.
lol, na boi, thats it, no retakes allowed.ain't no congratulations man. What you lot on?
go back and retake em !
Oh, I forgot, I am building in a computer to the turbo and using a bunch of arduinos to build some nifty sensors and some input from the odp port. basically a dashboard computer and digital gauges and some custom systems... really looking forward to this tbh and hope to make some good systems. bla bla bla, ideas are great and chat is wonderful, but lets see some results and see what happens over the next few weeks.
Very random indeed Chris
Adding my congrats to your uni work and result
Sounds like you're almost building an ecu with a screen... now that'd be epic

that pretty much is it tbh, just utilising some systems which are already there, but with some extras.like in a GTR playstation screen thingy eh?
Thanks dude, hmmmmm I shall look in to that ta man. @frank I was hoping in having a windows or linux machine with attached development board for on the fly changesi think tunerview is obd1 based chris ? and congrats http://www.nismotronic.com/tunerview2.php
Indeed... lol I will great you a star trek based theme for you to oogle... yes a hydrophonics bay lol... ur a dorkCongrats on finishing uni
Ooooh, in car computer?
That would be sweet with an lcars interface
Edit: ...and your own hydroponics bay?
I gotta stop watching star trek ^_^

You cannot avoid the theory which is pants really, @Noddie did Motorsport at brookes. I hear very good things about the course there and its apparently very rated in the world.Yeah I'm looking at the motorsports technology one they do, more hands on... Theory bores me far too much Would rather not go to uni, but every employer wants one

Its interesting enough to warrant a thread. I'd be interested to see it developWell I don't know, you might be interested in self growing fruit and veg...possibly fish! Really looking forward to it. I may create a thread here. Bit far away from cars but hey, its giving back to the planet as the turbo drinks huge amounts of fossil fuel.
Pretty much but not as technical and as wonderful as a ECU.
Thank you re uni man
Going well touch wood mate, managed a first in class on the first day of the manx classic so was chuffed with that! Should have had another but it's race politics and I was happy to beat all my best times to dateThanks man, there may be some actual updates in the future re. the car, as time is generally more available now woo! hows your motor going, how has the series been too? results?
Oxford Brookes! That's where my girlfriend wants to go, if she can get the grades she needs this summer.

What, things like how red brake calipers give 25kw?Did Motorsport design at uws in Scotland completely rubbish learnt more from guys in the class than the lecturers they were clueless. Head lecturer had taken part in 1 hillclimb and a sprint and drove a diahatsu.
Pffffft don't be silly, everyone knows that!What, things like how red brake calipers give 25kw?
I think your problem was more down to inappropriate choice of course dude. The reasoning that he has done 1 hill climb and that he drives a diahatsu...you need to rethink this one, you drive a micra; overall these points have nothing to do with how good the course was.Did Motorsport design at uws in Scotland completely rubbish learnt more from guys in the class than the lecturers they were clueless.
