Great progress on the car!

What spring rates do you have on your AST's? I tryed looking through the thread but i couldn't see if you had mentioned it before!

 

[Rhys Beal]

No worries Dan...money is money


Will have to have a look at the spring rates as I don't know off the top of my head. They will probably be changed sometime in the near future anyway to dial in the car how I want it and match it spot on with its overall weight.

 

[dmallett]

Too right it is at the moment! If all goes well and i end up with the clio i said about the other day ill try get that out on track with you next year

 

[chrispy.clio]

Oh i thought you sent them back to be re valved for a race car set up!

If you just change the springs (for harder) then wont they be under damped!

I sent the front back as the internal bushes gave up after 1500 miles. They were rebuilt under warranty and not re valved

When/if the spring rates are changed they will be re valved at the same time

Update!


..Sort of, no pictures until Monday I'm afraid but I have just had a text informing me that my cage is all done! Monday we will start putting the seat bars in and sorting the location of the steering column and bracing it to the dash bar.

 

[dmallett]

Happy Days!!!

Looks like I'll have to renew my subscription especially.

Update

I've bought a supercharger

 

[dmallett]

This just got better.

You still stripping the s**t out of it?

 

[Rhys Beal]

Yup, when it's back I will look to see if there is anything else I can take off because I am now adding weight of a Rotrex

 

[LewisTaylor]

Is it Danny's old SC?

 

[Rhys Beal]

Is it Danny's old SC?

No it's brand new infact but atm has an Antonov 2 speed automatic gearbox for boosting up early in the rpm. Whether it stays on or not I don't know

 

[Rhys Beal]

Can someone recommend me a clutch that will hold 250-60bhp?

 

[DannyR]

Standard

 

[Rhys Beal]

Yours never slipped?

 

[DannyR]

Nope, and the updated Kevlar one I had on the 330 one did!

 

[Rhys Beal]

Standard it is then lol albeit a new one. You sold your kit yet?

 

[DannyR]

Yea, sold about a month ago now, getting picked up Saturday.

 

[Rhys Beal]

Ooh in that case may I pop over and draw round the brackets?

 

[DannyR]

Went to do all that Saturday, but the costs of manufacturing and laser cutting and getting aluminium at this sizes it would be silly cost.

Your best off speaking to Paul at RSTung for some.

I've also only got one bracket as the other is off being welded up.

 

[Rhys Beal]

Okay mate not to worry. I will do mine slightly different though as I won't run power steering. Cable ties will suffice

 

[DannyR]

All you really need is the Cup setup brackets and a plate that will bolt pulley side to the engine.

I will do a rough drawing around them when I get them back

Thanks ver much mate. I have also read that the canister should be mounted lower than the charger?! Is it worth rejigging it so the charger sits up top and alternator down underneath?

 

[DannyR]

Keep charger in position, just mount oil cooler lower.

 

[dmallett]

Dont forget you will need the megane keyed pulley!
