winter wheels

the Stroseks have started to corrode a little under the lacquered dish so they need refurbed, and I didnt want to go another winter and corrode them any worse than they are.

plus i wanted to see what anthracite looked like on my car.

you just redoing them the same colour or is it time to start photoshoping different colours on them??

 

[Munkul]

not sure yet tbh.

I like this a lot:

but i also liked it the way it was a lot... then theres the option of getting shut of them and getting something fresh. Im quite liking the idea of white superleggeras.

Can I PS them black for you? I just really wana see how they would roll with the black parts

 

[Munkul]

you certainly can but it definitely wont be happening i despise black and polished wheels atm.

 

[Tris Harris]

car is looking stunning as always mate

im considering lime green calipers myself :yum:

:yeahthat: black and polished lip is so last year
I'm still down with fully black wheels, though it wouldn't suit those wheels i don't think.. If your gonna 'shop it do them lime green

Will give a few colours a try

i might give it a stab later but i am supposed to be working you know

 

[Munkul]

If i put these pictures up, it might give anyone interested a clue of whats happening with my car atm...

heheh

 

[tim1989]

how did you go about making that? did you follow the design of a super sprint ect or work it all out yourself

all my self, from design to completion, apart from the flange machining, which was done by T.E.D.

The runner bore is calculated for performance but the runner length isn't. This is because it doesnt need to be for my application

 

[tim1989]

nice work must be great being able to make stuff like that for yourself:slayer:

I wonder ? lol saw what you was doing on pm2, hope it all goes well !

 

[Munkul]

the other night, i found a hole and made it bigger

big enough for a decent size grommet

then removed centre console

and routed all the cables through

so when i connected it all up, it looked like this (sorry for poor quality)

then disaster struck

so now that the oil pump was taken off, i thought i'd go ahead and start on the cylinder head

and now theres stuff everywhere

Love the Stroseks with a silver face, suit your car perfectly :yum:

Nice bit of handywork with the custom mani, what turbo are you going to be running?

Are you going low comp pistons/decompression plate or running it low boost?

Also what figures are you aiming for, boost and bhp?

 

[Munkul]

cheers dude

i have a garrett GT1549 rover turbo and a 1.2mm decompression plate, im hoping for about 140bhp but anything over 120 i'l settle for. Im initially going to run whatever boost pressure the actuator will let me (i modified it to open at 6psi so probably around 5psi at the manifold) and 6psi @ standard CR usually means around 120bhp on these engines, so i should be able to crank it up to 8-9psi safely, once its running smoothly.

 

[Si - Punto]

Sounds really good dude.

I don't know much about turboing the 16v engines, what ECU are you going for?

 

[Munkul]

Greddy REBIC IV piggyback fuel management supplying an additional 4 injectors in the manifold. Its not ideal but it should work, we shall see....
