Too many sets of wheels.....

You\'d need to swap the rear calipers - going from solid to vented. can\'t remember if the fronts are the same?! and the offset may be different?

By all means give Tim a call at RXmotors (01725 516462) & ask him to post you my hubs & brakes. You can have them for nowt if you buy the wheels. All my stuff is painted or powder coated by the way.

I may need the rear hubs, not sure how the 5stud conversion kit works. Tim would have loads of other parts if mine are needed, but you\'d have to pay for his parts!

Think I\'m running 1bar of booset at the mo. Gonna go for a larger turbo & 6speed box next!!

Mark, I can\'t photo the wheels at the mo cos they\'re down in dorset on the car. I\'ll try & dig out an old one for you. They are Wolfrace Octanes if that helps.

nice to see you stuck with it, lets hope the conversion makes you feel better about driving it more!!

Mark

That is gonna be one sweet conversion thats for sure-make sure you follow up with how she drives,thanks a lot for the offer of the brake and hub bits. I\'ll give him a bell tomorrow and see what will be left after the conversion but if not, at least that gives me an excuse to rummage around in aladdins cave!! If you get a chance I\'d love a picture or two as I am rather interested! djscrumpleton@aol.com

Mark,I\'m probably going to RXmotors somewhen this week so if Senior Pamponi has no objections I\'ll take a couple of snaps of the wheels while I\'m there if no other pictures surface.

Don Pamponi · September 10, 2007, 08:41:25 PM

Will sort out pictures of the Revvies asap. Dunno where I stored them now....

Don Pamponi · September 10, 2007, 08:42:26 PM

Just emailed Mark a picture of the Octanes

captainbizzaro · September 10, 2007, 08:45:30 PM

Ha,if your part storage is anything like mine then best of luck to you!:Laugh
If you struggle with pics of your other wheels are you happy for me to take a couple of snaps for Mark?

Give them a clean first please! Tim will have been rallying it around farm tracks all summer! Can\'t bear to look.....

Ah sweet...sorted

Don Pamponi · September 10, 2007, 08:47:12 PM

Mark, PS: that pic was before the wider rubber went on the back

captainbizzaro · September 10, 2007, 08:47:25 PM

I think it has a tow hitch now....

captainbizzaro · September 10, 2007, 08:51:10 PM

Top marks on your beast by the way,I like it alot. Have you got a power figure for that setup?

Don Pamponi · September 10, 2007, 08:53:42 PM

If anyone does goe to RXmotors, can you poke Tim & Matt with a pointy stick whilst shouting "SEVEN MONTHS, SEVEN MONTHS" repeatedly? Much obliged.

Don Pamponi · September 10, 2007, 08:58:06 PM

It was dyno\'d @ 217bhp (at the wheels) before it was fully run in & without the Blitz boost controller & water injection that it has now. I\'ve asked Tim to run it up again if they have time. I\'d hope for 240ish @1bar. It wasn\'t running that much boost the last time & it made 217, so should be interesting....
