Yes there alpina replicas apparantly they fit bmw 4 stud an ford 4 stud i think...They are silver mate look bit white becasue i have sanded them down to repaint

 

[Lyons]

I thought they looked like Alpinas, but the 4 stud through me. Were E30's 4 stud?

 

[evo98]

Yes e30s are 4 stud but this car can take both 4 an 5 on the rear..(handy to get plenty of wheels to fit)

 

[Rfg]

this should look well. you should try and get teh c pillar cover to make it more m3 lookng but then I suppose you would have to alter teh roof for it to fit. looking forward to seeing how this pans out should be epic!

 

[ewok]

Are you on about the wheels thats on the car?? They are fondmetals an think the fit old vw because ive got a few boys on to me already about them an i never even advertised them so they must be sought after

s2000 didnt cost me much money because i was doing deals with other cars swapping an changing so the engine etc didnt cost me no where near what a breaker would have charged me...s2000 is being used for parts now lad gave me decent money for it, he needed loads of parts of it

 

[ewok]

I have a wee collection of my engines throughout the years that seemed to expire on me due to unknow reasons lol

Heavy on the right paw davey lol

 

[evo98]

Got underneath schutzed

Piece welded to the 4 branch so th rest of the exhaust can connet to

Engine fitted properly with proper mounts

Radiator brackets made an radiator fitted

Wiring loom an ecu, hope to do away with the most of this

More steel put on the floor

 

[Nicky]

A nice aluminium duct from under the slam panel directing air straight on to that rad would help alot, along with the air filter being flipped 180 degrees to the passenger side and a cold air feed from 1 of the headlights

Coming on nicely.

You figured out what brake set-up your going with yet?

 

[IL]

What kind of weight would you expect this to finish up? What kind of power? 240/250hp?

Yes im going to keep the evo brembos on an run 17 inch wheels, well ill see how i get on with them anyhow...
Was thinking of bmw 540 brakes for the rear but davy said she braked ok on the rear, an for all the weight of the rear i think the standard brakes would do ok.....
Yes he had aluminium ducts running to the filter before...Ill say to him about the 1 for the radiator mayby he had 1 there too.....
All in sll im happy enough with whats been done to date

 

[evo98]

yes 240/250 bhp with 900kg.....Havnt ruled out supercharger yet, have couple men on lookout for 2nd hand one

 

[ewok]

Tony hope you still have the CRX skills lol you'll need them if your up against Ralph,Davey and the father son team in the DC5s

 

[evo98]

Whats the craic with the dc5s? Is there much done to them? They just race at kirkisten?

 

[scubbay]

A bonnet duct toward the air filter may be more effective than from the headlight. Its coming together though and Im sure it will be well tidied/finished once up and running.

 

[Nicky]

As far as the DC5's go; 1 of them is running throttle bodies and some special management and putting the power down through a £5k gearbox. Last year it had diff issues meaning problems getting the power down in the corners which is where is should be making time against the BMW's, but when it came out in the final round, it came all guns blazing and pushed Ralph Jess so hard that he ended up setting the fastest lap time at Kirkistown in the Saloon Class in his E46 M3 Coupe...

You could say the DC5s are alright, but that's an understatement. They seem, judging solely on their final round performance, to be perfect for that track now...

Is this a racing series? Is this running this year an is it just kirkisten?? Is there a 2.0 16v class anywhere? Reckon it could do well in a class like that

 

[Graham]

kirkistown saloons would be the only proper racing for this car in IRL

 

[Nicky]

Lines Saloon or something is the race class the DC5s are in, along with the 3 Railway Autos BMW's I told you about in the other thread.

Yes, it's on again this year and is held at Kirkistown. If your looking to enter that race series, you'll need to be well above board as far as the MSA rules and regulations go, ie fire extinguisher plumbed in with a nozzle aimed at the drivers and 1 in the engine bay, an in-date seat/harness/helmet/gloves/boots/single layer fire proof race suit, approved cage, engine cut-off fitted to exterior etc etc.

You'll need to get down to 1 of the days or get in touch with the club and get a "race pack" which is around £50 from memory and also apply for a race licence which will set you back £200 or so (this also covers your first race entry fee though) and get registered with the race club
