A non Audi build thread !

Few pics of recent ( non related pug ) work.





That has had a lot of work done on it, the kit came from lithuania and wasn't great but the end result was great, the vauxhall z20let engine is putting out 485hp on a GTX3071 so it can back up its wild looks.

We are currently doing a Supra body for a chap who is aiming to run 6 sec passes on the 1/4, as usual the fibreglass clam is crap and Ash has spent a solid week on it just to make it look right.

One Corsa is done and gone, it was running a Evo 5 RS turbo at about 1.2 bar estimated at around 310/320 hp, enough to clip the limiter in 5th at Combe which is 142mph! Think it could do with better brakes next, I was quite happy though as I think it was one of the few cars that managed to drive there and back without a fault, his mates car stuck a rod out of it as he lifted off at 150mph into Avon Rise, engine is scrap on that one sadly.

Woops about the knackered engine and well done on getting one corsa out of the way.

I bet the Supra will be good fun. I always wanted one of those too and nearly got one instead of the S2... actually almost got an MR2 Turbo too but glad I didnt now.

That kit car looks awesome mate. I really like it! So what do you guys specialise in and where are you based?

[Jonnybravo]

We can cater for most things really. General body repairs to complete car builds, roll cages and other fabrication.

We are planning to move in the not so distant future which will help us expand, we are not short on work at the minute so it would appear the work is there, just the premises isn't perfect for us but you have to start somewhere

We are based in Earith, between Huntingdon and cambridge.

[Christophski]

Cool. Sounds like you have a good customer base and its obvious you know what your doing. As you say everyone has to start somewhere. I have mates working in a unit on a farm which they have outgrown since setting up but its difficult to find decent units these days that arent the earth!

Good luck and will have to stop by if im ever that way. Its not a million mile from me anyway.

Take it easy and enjoy it mate

JB why didn't you tell me you were working on that! it's quite famous in the VX scene https://sites.google.com/site/z20letpower/home

Seen it when my VX friends meet up

[Jonnybravo]

Yep that's the same car, I'm good friends with Steve who built the engine for "nipper", Nev wanted to transform the look of the car and that's where we got involved.

It's seriously fast, could benefit from a good ecu though as you can't live map the stock ecu it has, been trying to talk him into a Link Extreme.

[Jonnybravo]

This is the supra as it sits at the minute.



I'll have to get some shots of the chassis as its quite a serious bit of kit! As you would expect on a car aiming to do 200+ on the 1/4

[Christophski]

Wo, that looks like its going to be serious bud. Some talents you must have for that!
