DeltaZero Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 The support withdrawal was mainly due to lack of funding.. All it needs is someone silly enough to invest a *suitcase* tonne per year that they'll never get back and someone will bring the support back. But sadly in the world we live in as there's no money in it so no one is interested.. Link to post Share on other sites

Alias1983 Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 Where did you get v6 from? Its an incline 4 cyl super duper charged. Awd is an option but a major mechanical undertaking, not something I'm interested in to be honest. Vw corrado? Link to post Share on other sites
Alias1983 Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 Boulevard beer and Washington apples, need more! I won't need to ask the bartender (neighbor) for a ride home! I can handle my boose! Link to post Share on other sites
Tw1tch Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 So finally Hours Heresy Space Wolves bits are up for preorder. Just torsos and pads at the minute but much excite for my other main hobby. Link to post Share on other sites
Hedganian Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 Saw Batman v Superman today. Wasn't as bad as I'd feared from the general consensus of social media. Also, looking forward to Civil War in the next couple of weeks. Link to post Share on other sites
amateurstuntman Posted April 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 Vw corrado? That's the car but in Europe it was available with a load more engines. Including a G60 engine which is a 1.8l supercharged engine. It is a G-Lader which is a centrifugally sealed scroll type blower. Tink's is the G-Lader equipped car which is considered superior due to its lower weight. Link to post Share on other sites

The g60 is the 1800 8v engine out of the golf gti mk2, with the g lader, boosting (heh) the power up to 160bhp. Just watched my video back. 13 minutes 16 seconds bridge to gantry. Well happy!

Tinkerton Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 I pulled over for everything, and slowed down as well. Highest speed I got was 110mph on the final straight. With sorted suspension, my over fuelling issues sorted and another few thousand miles under my belt (and maybe some strut braces to tighten up the chassis) I'll be aiming for 11 minutes next year.

If it's anything like the Eaton's(not sure what it comes with, too drunk to care to look). Most tower bars do very little if anything, I'd rather save for a partial cage.

amateurstuntman Posted April 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Problems? Link to post Share on other sites
Tinkerton Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 nah they're just high maintenance compared to 'normal' twin screw chargers, because the central displacer piece rotates eccentrically, it seals against the static sidewalls of the charger, which means the seals wear away over time, leading to lost boost and so on and so forth. plus if there's an oil blockage or starvation the bearings sieze and they have a habit of spontaneous, irreversable, violent dissasembly. plus they're tricky to get much more power out of. You can port the inlet/exhaust vents to make it breath better, and a smaller pulley to make it turn faster, but with smaller pulleys comes closer rebuild intervals, from 40k for a stock one to about 20 for a stage 4 running a 60mm pulley (stock is 78mm).
