Didn’t even know there was a hill climb track there, live and learn

Looks like a fun layout, have a look on You Tube :D

Off to Holden today to see if we can’t sort the ABS.

[Anonymous View build HERE Member since: January 1, 1970 Posts: 0]

Success!

What was the go?

[Anonymous View build HERE Member since: January 1, 1970 Posts: 0]

Had to tell the ABS and the PIM it is now a Manual, no more errors or warnings on the dash and it has TRAC and ABS again!

Nice.

Did you retain traction control to all 4 wheels?

[Anonymous View build HERE Member since: January 1, 1970 Posts: 0]

Nah I have it set up as a RWD so I can turn TRAC off/on as needed.

Surprised you keep ABS on a race car, I thought that was considered “lazy” ha ha…

You say that like it’s a bad thing 

If it saves me flat spotting a set of Semi Slicks it’s well worth having, I’m not that good a peddler!

New Gauge mount done!

Apart from fluid and pressure checks the Lexcen is ready to go next month!

1st attempt at Poly Windows is a bit 50/50, I think I may have got the wrong type of Poly as it’s very brittle, after doing the rear doors I shelved the idea of doing the front doors as there’s not a lot to be saved in a VR they have really thin glass anyway.

That and as brittle as the poly is I don’t want it anywhere near my face…

Overall I’ve pulled a bit of weight out of the Fat Bitch so I’m happy!

Full race car now.

[Anonymous View build HERE Member since: January 1, 1970 Posts: 0]

1370 Wet 

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Fark.

I was hoping to get down to 1400ish. Based on that I don’t think I’ll come close.

Keep in mind mine has a full cage and AWD… and the Exo Skeleton..

That’s not bad Ian my vk full electrics was 1440 without my skinny ass

[Anonymous View build HERE Member since: January 1, 1970 Posts: 0]

Thanks Frazer, it puts me on even footing with the WRX’s!

[Judge1 FrazerParticipant new zealand1983 VB LSA MG9 6060 6 speed View build HERE Member since: February 5, 2016 Posts: 775]

you would be just a bit long than the rex  right

[Anonymous View build HERE Member since: January 1, 1970 Posts: 0]

Bit longer a bit wider and roughly double the HP of most of the competition…

I have a Hydraulic Handbrake that works now so not at a disadvantage in the tight stuff like it used to be!

Having a GearBox that works will be a HUGE benefit as well.. 

[cava454Moderator 93 VR BT1 View build HERE Member since: February 20, 2015 Posts: 2 390]

Hmm wonder how I’ll fair, to urekon the and and exo gear would add up?

Mine has half cage and intrusion bars so should be similar. I got a bulky ass t400. Engines should be similar weight.

Your wheels would be a lot More then mine. Hmmmmm
