I had a fiberglass replica scoop like that bonded up from the underside many moons ago. Function wise yes a good move but (me being me now) buying two, cutting & bonding for a wider equal width could cause gasps!
Scoop looks like, should ram nice cold air in.
I like that it's offset, makes people realise what a piece of shit it is!!!
Have you not thought about a massive fuck off rear wing to push back end down
Surely, you jest??Quote:

I like it... though body colour would improve it...
Be aware though, they dont tend to push that much air into the bodies at that location due to the air pressure. The main reason I have one is to allow hot air to escape from the engine bay when stationary..
Paul..
Tim and I discussed this very thing on Friday evening, we're going to come up with something for the new shell I think. Maybe an inlet plenum with a proper cold air feed not 100% on it yet.Quote:

Protec do a cold air feed that picks up air from the leading edge of the bonnet...

Not for £550!!! Hahahaa
If it was me the cowling would be attached to the bodies and up and out of the skuttle panel
The scuttle is fairly low pressure, but fresh and cold so could be a winner if you aren't trying to fanny about with ram air
Ram air..... Derbyshires latest airline taking you away from the horrors of northern life to excellent destinations such as Baghdad, Aleppo and a gulag in Siberia
This is exactly what Tim and I are discussing, sealed into the back of the bonnet/scuttle areaQuote:

Just to clarify I have a hole that my clutch cable passes through, this is where the air comes through into the cabin, I have just ordered some bungs to fill said hole, something I haven't got round to until now.
Proper test results once the new air temp sensor is fitted.
Had a fiberglass one on a Corsa B a few years back. Well over priced from ProTec. I got mine from Magnum Motorsport who make them for ProTec then done a wet dob overlay with carbon kevlar.Quote:

Calipers are back, hopefully they'll be with me next weekend then I just need to fit them!! Oh and buy some wheels that will fit over them!!
Oooooooooooooooooo that's a very nice looking brake set up.
Hoping it'll perform better than the hi-specs!!Quote:

Hispec seem to be a aesthetic mod from what people say. Hopefully your new ones work well. that way I won't die on my passenger ride next month!
They looks the business, your front wheels will disappear under the car when you stamp on them lol
Well, this is a progressive build after all, I mean it's not like I bought 5 sets of brakes before deciding on the Alcons!!
Boom fitted

They fit under the Cromodoras with space to spare but I've had to remove the wheel weights!!! Have to see how that feels.
Feel pretty good on the pads Mintex F4R's that came with them.
Wondering if I now need some stiffer front springs to counter the dive.
Stiffen the Damping a touch as opposed to messing with the springs.
you do need a bit of dive to load the tyres up to get better traction for slowing
Paint the big alcon bit on the calipers black :D
Yeah this is what I'm reading!! I'm already quite stiff at the front as it is, so this might have to wait until I get the golds on the new shellQuote:

Paul..
The F4R's feel good on the road but that's not really transferable to track. I'm going to order some CL6 endurance to have with me aswell, always good to have a proven pads in the toolbox just incase!!
Off to Ibiza tomorrow then rockingham on the 13th with Iain. Should be fun!!
Must find some wheels!!
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...94db6ba839.jpg
Wheels ordered, hoping they arrive Thursday so I can get the tyres on and ready for Wockingham with TSV.
Was hoping for a 4 wheel align before then too but not sure I'll get one, might just add 1.5 degrees of rear camber with the spacers and see how it fairs.
that are some very nice wheels! what size did you order?
15x7j ET38 which is close to the Cromodoras I'm running now which are 15x7j ET37.Quote:
