Ok cheers. Do you find your fan running while driving on track or only when in traffic?
Sent from my LG-H955 using Tapatalk
on track i'm not sure because there is much noise with driving on full throttle
next time on track i will check this with a dash light connected to the fan wire
with slow trafic i notice that the fan works sometime.
my cooling is perfect but with my twincharged setup the supercharger stands for the radiator so less cooling so the fan need to work a little harder as a standaard car
sorry speedfr38ky,little off topic

Hey no worries. FYI, we have found a refurbed stock rs2 radiator with kenlow fan to be an ideal setup. Absolutely no issues with cooling. In fact we arent even needing to run waterless coolant. There is no need. The sister car had a thicker custom radiator made but in fact it was unnecessary.
Nice, at 600ps, a little over my target and in a lighter car, this is gonna be a serious Weapon of Mass Road Destruction. Do you have any more build pics of the undercarriage and general putting togetherness. I'm definitely going to want to see this in the flesh. Bring on the spring & summer games...
I can see in a couple of weeks I'm gonna be nudging Dave in the ribs when he's mapping my car "...just a little bit more, go on she'll take it... BOOM!!"

Regrettably Ive lost all the pics from my old phone they didnt transfer when I synced a new one so lost all the undercarriage shots. All I can say is it looked pretty badass and everything looked new and purposeful. The car was completely re stonechipped on the whole underchassis, with new fuel lines, and twin pumps installed. It had refurbed S2 subframes front and rear on mine to be able to fit the kwv3 suspension and roll bar setup.
Im pretty OCD when it comes to attention to detail. Im glad to have got Quattrocoachworks to do the build for me. Little things like removing unnecessary wiring and hiding cables all add up and neaten up the whole package.
When yours is done will arrange a meet up as you suggested and compare notes.
In terms of mapping im very much limited by the size of intercooler as I didnt want to butcher the oem look and cut the bumper etc. We may look at a twin setup down the line but id like to enjoy the car as is. 600ps would be nice figure to hit. Luckily this can be boosted as my car and the sister car of john wain are running flex fuel sensors to allow us to bung in E85 to take it to 700ps.
Just a shame these projects take time and incurr delays especially at the final stages but hey ho thats just the way these things go. Theyre never straight forward hence why ive kept out of the way and not thought about it too much. The wait is painful otherwise. Haha.

I'm not using E85 but I will have some means of boost control.

Hmm, tell me about it, originally my car was planned for a few mods to be ready in MAY of last year.... so much for that plan

Had a good catch up with Ish yesterday. Car is in need of slightly wider 8.5J barrels which i'm ordering from Germany, the car has to have the mineral oil swapped for fully synthetic, then the car is all mine to run in until dyno mapping in spring time.
It has been a little while to wait for this project with a few unforseen delays but it really is something i'm so glad I trusted Quattro Coachworks with. Seeing the car yesterday the attention to detail and pride in the workmanship its second to none. No corners cut. Ive trusted Ish with money, parts and labour and had my back turned pretty much the whole time. I've never once had any problem. A rarity these days where money and things of value are concerned. Any way enough of the love story. If you know then you know.

Pretty much the same story with me. I'd just about stopped begging for update pictures when Will today sends me this, with the caption "Your car's mapped" just to wind me up...
That's just mean!! But whoever's GTR that is has one serious rocket!!

Its things like waiting on custom looms and little bits that take their toll on build time. Frustrating I know but like you say best to sit tight and forget about it.
