Well as they and everyone else knew, they have a new ecu and wiring harness for it and are just experiencing a few more snags than expected getting everything working. All the relays are trying to do different things so they are just having do some pin swapping on the harness once they get the wiring diagram from the car it's come from and mine so they can get it sorted. He's just cracking on with that first before he starts fitting everything else up to it to get it running sweet first. Have you been up to much pal?

How come your installing a new ECU and wiring harness? New (different) engine going in?

[geordie56]

Yes there's a full new engine going in pal just having a few issues that's all.

Looks like you'll have yourself a little monster there at 1050Kg!! Interested to see what the new engine is!

Well im hoping so, it will be nice light and nimble to saythe least as it was really good before. The only reason for the big transformation is due to the poor engine and having 2 turbos, so with around 90-100bhp more than it had i think it will be a weapon on track.

Corrected that for you 

Plastics for performance may tickle your fancy

just when you thought the spending was coming to an end 

[geordie56]

Dave you are a bugger! I'm sure you always wait til I'm pretty sorted on all fronts then throw a swerve ball at me! It does look a good setup I take it the smaller rear trailing caliper is purely for the handbrake alone? Now pm me , what's the best price you could do that setup for to a good mate who's always lining your pockets!? 

[DaveB@Vagbremtechnic]

Still in development buddy, but look out for some TT rear hubs, they need TT hubs to work but they'll also gve you another 20mm of track as well.

Went over to see Steve yesterday and have a chat see where we are up to. Engine is all in place with all ancillaries fitted up, some wiring done but there is a lot of differences so he is plodding on and will be doing a bit of pin swapping.

What engine bud? Spec? :)

[geordie56]

I dont want to give it all away just yet until we get a little closer to having it up up and running ready to tweak.
