    All the steel that came out weighed in at 48kg

    My old flat floor , splitter and bumper weighed 23kg

    Old Engine harness including 034 coils 3kg

    Brakes i have saved 3.5kg a corner

    Wishbones 1.5kg a corner

    so rough total of 83kg ish...

    New frame so far has used 2 lengths of 4130 at 3.5kg and 2 smaller wall at 3kg so by the time i have started on the Ali frame i should be well under....

    New Flat floor is Honey comb and carbon. I have not decided yet if i will wet lay up some wheel arch liners. My corner weights are going to be amazing this time around!

    It means it goes into pro extreme. I paid my £50 drivers registration fee so i might make a few rounds next year
    What does that work out to cost per kilogram?

    Almost finished the frame, just need to fully weld up then it's set up time and shortly after off to paint.

    AST 3 Way 5300, nice! Where did you source the steering arms? I've been trying to figure out a way to upgrade from Bilstein Sports to match the rear Ohlins that came on my 90. If not for the high arms I think something from a more popular car could work.

    MacPherson strut (4-way adjustable) £3225 each

    So your need 4 of those

    Will you run into traction issues up front with that much castor?




    What happen if I say I already bought a DFV ( dual flow valve) Ohlins set for my red Makinen as Christmas gift?

    That's like the good cocaíne, once you try it,you won't other

    Seems to happen the same with Ohlins... People who decided to have them, would never go back... More in the bumpy Uk roads! Best money spent by far on their cars... Best upgrade ever done ( more with a set of Ap racing 6 pot kit... )
