Drove this home today and parked it on the drive :drive:

Ah, so you did it in the end mate, guess the mapping issues are all sorted then :D

Nice one, what power did it make?

oh nice! that looks like it has a rotated setup on it :o give us all the details :)

2.1 I'd guess at :)

Looks great.....you still have the type r as well?

Very nice!! what's the spec??

So yes, rotated setup. Mapping went OK, but Simon (JGM) thinks the fuel pump isn't up to going further than 450HP, which the car made today. Wiley was hoping for more, but we'll see how things go ;)

Still have the Type R and I want to drive the two scoobs for a short while before deciding what to do next :mrgreen:

I'll get some more pics up soon when it's had a clean :polish:

Good show you dont hang about do you!

Wiley said 550 was expected didn't he

What turbo?

Says it on the spec list

Ah! Precision Billet 5831 turbo, ta! :fool:

Saw this on ScoobyNet too. Lovely well spec'd motor.

I think 550 is a bit unrealistic from what Simon said today. Turbo seemed fine, but Ver 6 heads/cams will hold it back and with an uprated fuel pump such as the Bosch 044, 500HP is more likely.

Nice.

In the top pic is Simon off to stab someone?!

Nice one Alan :doubleup: You do like em uprated don`t you :-D

Nice Alan, pleased it was what you expected.

I work with computers now and although I did a bit of mechanics with my dad I would struggle with most things on scoobies. So having 'em already uprated is the perfect solution for me :)

I do have a friend with a pit, so hopefully I can get my hands dirty from time to time :lol:

Oh, and whilst at the mapping session a pale blue coloured WR1 turned up for a tune :grin:

You beat me to it buddy fuel set up that will see 500-450 all day :)

Nice motor.

Cheers fud, I thought I saw you enquire about the car over on SN ;) Wiley's already suggested a replacement fuel pump ... no pressure then :lol:

I would use a secondary pump with swirl pot if your going to drive the car hard.... I had cutting out issues over 450bhp when taking corners hard

Second that and will have a pot for sale soon as binning the oe tank :)

More greedy people!!! Hmmmm

Thanks for the suggestion James :) I'll have a bit of a read around.

... as long as having 2 fuel pumps isn't being too greedy :-P

No as I have three :D

Gave it a wash today .... added more pics to first post ;)

Looks great, perfect stance!

Very nice done well there :ok:

Very cool car, can't wait to see it !

That's a nice looking car mate

Very nice looking Scoob.

Things are moving slowly at last! Refurbed turbo has now arrived and should be fitted in the next couple of days, then car off to have the remap completed. Hoping there won't be any more problems .... :angst:

Garrett GT30R .63

Dont no how i missed this one that looks proper mean!! Got the best wheels on too!!

Big thanks to Neil @ Slowboy Racing for looking at the turbo :)

Unfortunately as the pipework required some extensive fabrication Neil suggested the car be taken to TFS Racing for the work to be undertaken.

Life's never simple ..... :doh:

Turbo fitted and pipework fabricated thanks to TFS. However, turbo is making more noise than it should and Simon suggested it be returned rather than mapped. :sad:

Can't believe the bad luck I'm having with this car....

Doh :(

Stick with it mate, it'll be worth it in the end.

How true that is...:nod:

Not good Alan, I feel for you.

I am beginning to have doubts about a lot of these hybrid turbo's.
You seem to see many issues and I have also seen turbo's of this type and cars fitted with this type quoting that the turbo's have had recent rebuilds/overhauls.
Is this really to be expected after spending £1000 - £2000 on what is basically a fan, an exhaust housing, a snail, bearings and oil seals....the OE turbos seem to last and last without requiring any attention.

Quick update....

Turbo returned & fitted mid March. Car put back on road 2nd April & overheated on its first outing of less than 15 miles, both coolant and oil :-(

.... gutted :deadhorse:

I think it's time to break it mate. .......

Blimey Alan, what a nightmare. :(

Oh crap dude :( , how hot did they both get? It might not be terminal..

Oil temp hit 120 and set off a warning. Coolant blew off the lid and steamed nicely ....

I'll wait for Neil to have a look at the damage before deciding what to do, but I'm not hopeful :cry:

Oil at 120 is hot, but not hot enough to do damage.. (I have run hotter on circuit..) fingers crossed for you dude, I hope its something silly and fixable.

Your luck doesn't get any better Alan does it:sad:

Is the engine still covered by any warranty from enginetuner?

I doubt it after it's had work done by others

It seems there's a leak on the passenger side towards the front of the car. Rose coloured liquid (presume this is coolant)

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ageek/Leak.jpg

Not sure if this is good news or not :angst:

If the coolant overflowed, couldn't it be still from that

I don't think so as when I checked after parking up the car it seemed quite dry. Also there's a definite drip which I can collect in a jar (that's how I know what colour it is). I also checked the same spot under where the car had been parked from mid March until 2nd April and found evidence of what looks to be the same leak...

OK, back with an update....

Huge thanks to Neil @ slowboy racing for sorting out the coolant problems prior to me driving very apprehensively to SRR this morning, trying not to use boost :paranoid:

Simon & Charlie did their stuff and after a short while the car made a conservative 447.5 HP at 1.7 bar. There's room for more but after 8 months of grief I didn't want to risk pushing things any further ....

So, a much happier ride home and now I'm going to have to start spending money on petrol :grin:

Nice one mate and glad you can start to enjoy it :)

Glad you've got her sorted at last.

+1 :agreed:

Sweet! Looking forward to seeing it! Glad the problems have all been sorted ;) fun on the drive home?

Mainly relief!! Mostly motorway miles, but it was good to know I could use boost if needed. ;)

Good news and fingers crossed it's only petrol that will be using the pound notes from now on.......

good figures - and glad things seem sorted now :ok:

Good news indeed. Look forward to seeing it at a meet soon

Lovely looking motor you have there :-)

Regards,

Subaru Collector 555.

Excellent news :)

excellent news. I see you have the same clutch as me....how you finding it?

The clutch is taking a little getting used to! It judders a bit in 1st and reverse making it difficult to get away smoothly unless applying a few revs.

However, I haven't had much chance to drive the car yet, other than a few motorway miles....

Reverse scoop fitted and front splitter temporarily removed ...

Before...

that front splitter had better go back:cath:

Looks better with the splitter I'm with Tim on this one ;)

MOT on Monday, then the splitter's going back on in time for the July SES meet in Crowborough.

Be good to see it at the meet mate, I haven't seen it since I collected some kits from Wiley a few years ago (just after the hawk conversion).

Following some interest in the rear brakes, here's a couple of pics

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2.../RearBrake.jpg
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...RearBrake2.jpg

No 5mm spacers I could see either. The tyre is quite close to the coilovers, but I couldn't get a decent pic, so perhaps I'll stay with the 235 tyre width.

Another big thanks to Neil @ slowboy racing for spending some time with the car today :) Engine oil & filter changed, back box replaced, general once over ;-)

... brakes inspected and condemned :cry:

So, that's new tyres and brakes next :doh:

Just the rears I assume? Hopefully you don't have problems with the fronts too :)

The discs are fading on the front and will need replacing soon too :angst:

Hey Alan

Any latest updates mate

Nice seeing the old girl

Wiley

Welcome to SES Wiley :wave:

The wheels have gone gunmetal but thats all I can remember :D Sure Alan will be along soon.....

Hi Wiley

yep, wheels are now anthracite following a refurb and new Vredstein rubber fitted. Reverse scoop and new boot lid with spoiler to be fitted now they have been sprayed in 02C Blue. Brakes next on the list as is a tweak to the mapping as hoses keep coming off under the bonnet during quick acceleration.

I'll get some pics up when some of the work has been done and the weather's better ;)

What size is that front plate?

Also, where did you get it?

Thanks

Jon

The front plate was on the car when I bought it :wink:

my old whip, hows it running?

wiley

Not seen Alan at a meet for a while. Hopefully he still has the car and its still going strong :)
