Yeh, the vacuum when connected does it at idle and part throttle - but i would have thought that if you fix it at full advance the maxium would be too much... Wierd.

So as yours is fixed at maximum vacuum at all times, you're getting 10d BTDC at idle, and a maximum of 32?

ye around there but when i adjust the timing on the rollers will prob be idleing at around 20 but then u have to run special fuel to stop pinking but it brings more performance

are you going to limit your maximum advance with that distributer then?

no just leave her advance up herself it will only go so far and the engine and fuleing system will be setup to take it but for people running standard you can retard it back down to standard settings by adjusting the timing so it works well

this weekend i took my exhaust apart modified the indide of the box welded her back up and put it back on the car so its at the correct sound level now.

also made my frame to hold the sumpguard which will also act as a front subframe

what you think?

looks a treat, the underside of that car looks amazing fresh from its respray.

has this seen the road yet?

nah it hasnt been on the road yet. almost there

alright heg,

what sump is that? my afh has the sump plug on the rear, yours looks like an earlier (3f type) item....

Cheers

looking good

cheers

ye I used the 3f sump as the one on the afh was dented and this was a nice new one haha.

Great progress, unrecognisable from the shoddy mess it was before you got it!

thanks ye she has come along way but then it has taken over 2 years and alot of money so far but cant wait to get her going now.

I'm after some info people what is the best stiings for a tarmac car for the castor and camber or even what are they standard if any one has a clue.

cheers

had a play on paint with this

Did you start that on one of the 'Online Modders'?

ye on the polo mk2/3 online thing then took it into paint

get those OZ wheels.

sweet

here is how she is looking now. getting very near people very near

i love this car, i need this car

Its almost too nice to rallying in lol, I remember seeing pictures of the yellow one in a state lol

wa wheels u gt hywel?

they are a golf 15" wheel I also have some sebrings but as for nice looking rally wheels i dont have any as i will only break them lol.

Heg, what dampers are you planning on using in the woods?

I'm having problems destroying mine on whites on road rallies and need something beefier.

(I'm running 200lb 21/4 springs, nylon'd front end and AVO adj dampers.)

the set up i had on my road rally car and never gave me any trouble this is what it was as I'm not running this car in the woods only on tarmac stages.

front was koni yellow adjustable shocks set to hardesd with golf mk2 gti front springs with one ring cut off. worked a treat it had nylon outer tca bushes and standard inner tca bushes and standart arb mount bushes with standard top mounts and it handles like a dream still got the car.

rear kyb gold shocks with gt springs.

hope this helps

ithanks for the info, its nice to hear what setup people are using cause if anyone is going to test them properly its the likes of you guys who rally them

i ran avos for a bit, they're rubbish! i bought bilstein B6s and they are a league apart from avos. also, why are you running 200lb springs for road rallies? thats far too hard.

Did you ever figure out the castor / camber settings in then end?
