That's awesome mate. My vl needs like another 10k more just to get it running how I would like it :jamie:

Hey Rod,

 

May have missed it, but how wide is the diff from hub face to hub face? and offset/back space on the wheels?

 

CHEERS

Ryan

OK axle flange to flange is 1320mm wheels are 15x8 4in in 4in out tyres are 225/60/15 and i have done no lipping or hammering at all,

 

 

 

NOTE this is end of axle to end of axle, allow for disc or drum, This is the same for wagons vans sedans and coupes

Cheers Rod!!!

youve done very well to build it for that price. Got any more vids?

mate that is a mean as wagon and very cheap build . you must be farkin happy with the results :yes:

Thanks Guys, yes i am happy with it, almost finished and i,m already starting to look at the next one. maybe a full on race car this time

Full on drag? Or going down the circuit route?

Usually for the drags 3spd's are usually considered too bulky and 1st gear is too short. But I'm sure Rod would know this !jamie.gif

 

Imagine your 4 speed from your 4kc engine, but smaller, that is a C4. I can take pictures side by side if you like.

 

The aforementioned jatco is a big bitch, but has a 4th gear, so great for the street.

 

In a light turbo car a 3 spd auto is not considered 'ideal', but is a great compromise for the street.

Got a gearbox yet :blinks: ?

 

Manual or auto is the question. If you go auto you'll have to up the boost to 35psi just to compensate :(

So what’s the plan . . . . . . change this one into a full on race car, or start from fresh.

 

keep up the good build.

just get a glide :blinks:

HP isn,t my problem, I'm just not sure if I'm ready for an auto, i think it will run a 10s now if i get it right, but then if i want to keep doing it i have to do the cage and other stuff which isn't the point of this car
