Ultimate 3" downpipes & decats - brand new
I bought them early last year from the US but due to various complications of having a limited run made they didn't arrive till last month... They are a bellmouth design to avoid any boost creep with big turbo's and breather mods, all tig-welded, and have v-bands :D Only considering selling as I won't be putting them to use till next year now given how plans have changed, and if I lower the engine, they'll need to be modified which would be a shame. £900 delivered

Apexi BOV's
Inherited these so will pass them on. New ones go for around 80 each so will sell the pair for £80 delivered

19" Wheels - Offset Query
fronts will be ok ie minor work rears will be a pita unless you put stupidly thin tires on. I had 305/30 on a 19x10.5 et35, that took roll, pull, and flare to avoid any rubbing

Bobgenie's Slicktop. 2014 Makeover.
Throwing yourself in at the deep end :) However, it's not that long in the grand scheme of things till TOTB and best to get as many teething issues ironed out asap as it's all been taken apart and put back together again with several changes. Keep us updated!

Bit of a bummer
Terry, good of you to offer your help, and it's your birthday as well! Need more details from Anthony to see how people can help :)

Bit of a bummer
Have you spoken to Terry about it, looks like he built it from your previous posts?

Zeds ready :)
arggh Funky, saw pic attachments on thread so thought it was worth taking a look now!

Bobgenie's Slicktop. 2014 Makeover.
That's a good jump forward in progress! Is your new loom all done as well? Looking forward to seeing what those turbos can do

Bedford Track Day
hope you had fun while it lasted, but that's also what these test days are for. Does sound like the MC is leaking. I had a similar issue occur at croft, was fine most of the track but one certain corner the brake pedal went solid and very little braking - scary!!

My SWB Zed...
good work, what kind of CFM does the fan throw out?

Bobgenie's Slicktop. 2014 Makeover.
I meant wheel size :) in terms of getting heat into them, I was overheating my 265 up front eventually, and not getting enough heat into the 305 at the rear. I think your wing will help get the extra load on the rear, and as you say, testing is the key to see what differences the weight saving and aero changes make

TT diff in to NA subframe
Switch to a tt subframe... It's not that big a deal compared to everything else you've done
-
TT diff in to NA subframe
Not easily, and not worth it. Why are you considering it, may be better options?
-
Bobgenie's Slicktop. 2014 Makeover.
Nice wheels and a good offset for the arches, what size up front?
-
2014 work in progress
I could, but I don't think it'll be suitable for most Zeds, I have pretty much nothing behind the bumper area so lots of space. Hinges will add weight and have to be special/complex to avoid catching the splitter with minimal ground clearance

2014 work in progress
welcome to pop in, I'm on the batheaston side of the A46/A4 roundabout, so very close :)
-
2014 work in progress
simple enough, don't recommend for general use as it's a floppy thing now, weighs nothing as a result so a success for my intentions
-
2014 work in progress
pretty much, it's a nice idea, and I've figured how to do it with just 2 more attachment points beyond the bonnet aerocatches. Downside is that it will need 2 people to remove safely

2014 work in progress
yesterday's work was moving the pass seat further back and relocating the extinguisher

2014 work in progress
eagle eyed will notice I've lost my rear subframe. Z32bolt now has the old one, new one to be put together and details to be shared in due course

2014 work in progress

2014 work in progress
I bought an angle grinder, how did I survive before that! Various brackets removed, holes in the boot etc found a space for the new oil tank here's the matching sump test fitted to an old block also had to fab a mount for dry sump pump using the AC mount New mount is being made out of billet based on the original hack job!

2014 work in progress
Decided to drop down to an 18" wheel since there are better track tire choices available and to save a weight. Finding a lightweight wheel that fitted over my brakes was a mission, settled on these Enkei's. 18x10 all round, and a pair of 17x9.5 for drag racing Old set vs new Still very tight, had to grind off a lip to stop them catching the caliper. and having new brake bells and caliper mounts made to move the brakes further inboard. fitted (with no brakes)

2014 work in progress
In the last pic you can also see the shell I picked up from HellRaiser, that was a fun morning and thanks to Z32Bolt for lending a hand. The shell will be used as a donor to fix my rear qtr at some stage
