Will definitely do next time I see you about mate, I loved it!

I'll struggle to get there during the week mate. Also had a question for you. How confident would you be putting an ST170 or similar engine in my KA?

I always do haha

No mate but these got some track footage th-cam.com/video/FErh0dfexG0/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared I think you was parked just over from us, next to a big tent thing?

In fairness, they responded on a bank hol and said they'll send the right bit out almost a year after I bought it. Mistakes happen, it's more than I expected from them to be honest 🤣

China

Last Sunday of every month, give their IG a follow if you're on it and they'll give you a reminder. Same with Chester one

Its flippin lovely, I know that much

@@gtclubuk come for a spin next time 😎

Shh

Everything in this video specifically came from a friend in China, although there are more parts to go on that came from the UK or are genuine Porsche parts

Where did you get the spyder side intake vents from?

@@james_havlin China

I forget exactly how we got round it but yeah we tried all the obvious stuff. I think what ended up happening was we contacted the manufacturer in China and they remade the bottom part

That's right, although I'm looking at a 3.9 or 4.1l rebuild in the new year

He's putting them on the white one eventually

It is but it's a waste of time really, I'll post a video about it in the coming weeks but essentially the exhaust doesn't fit and the remap box is for the wrong car, it happens all the time after speaking to other owners and SWR are not interested in helping at all

Yeah thats what I'm finding. What did you do with the ecu in the end?

Just counted the pins and did it that way. Still ended up with a spare wire from the piggyback ecu but seems to run well. My tip would be cut the dash around the ecu to make it easier. The exhaust just got cut and welded and cut and welded until it fit. 1st proper run out at cadwell on Thursday.

@@samcarver5338 is the info on the sheet provided for the 16v car correct? If so I have wiring diagrams for the car and can work it out that way but I wasn't sure if the box was programmed incorrectly or the wires on the diagram might not match what is in the box, if that makes sense

yes! i've mounted a few mounts ago and it's about 20 minutes of work

Yeah really easy, the hardest bit is getting them to send you the parts

its just some budget stuff off ebay, I can't remember what it's called now but it is in the video

All cars are different depending on where they've been stored etc. Some need no welding, some cant be rescued and some can be anywhere inbetween

fatbillslim

any time!

I just cut the original mounts off the old sub frames and welded them onto the side mounted rails for mine and had it fixed into one place

Cool, these are base mounted seats so I can't use those but it's good to know for the future

Sorry I thought I'd replied to this. It is off a MK6 Fiesta. No idea on the make, I got it 2nd hand off Ebay

@@gtclubuk how did u make it fit mate?. Thanks

@@fordsportka428 it was really easy, so I taped the splitter to the car as centrally as I could get it, pilot drilled 6 holes, drilled 6 full sized holes, put nuts and bolts through and tightened from the centre outwards so it would take some sort of form, then just angle grinded the ends off and that was it. It's not a 100% perfect fit but its a good 99.9%

@@gtclubuk thanks man so do u think the mk6 st splitters are a direct fit?

@@fordsportka428 give or take yeah, like I say I fitted it in a specific way to make it fit, the bolts do a little bit of pulling and I had to grind about 4 inches off each end but its nothing a little bit of patience cant resolve

I was going to go but I only woke up at 11! Been super tired all weekend, not ideal for pinging round a track :( I'll go to the next one. Did you go? How was it?

@@gtclubuk yes mate went but only went out twice had oil coming out of one of my coilovers

@@triggelphick669 Wounded. Was there much there?

@@gtclubuk some good cars there mate

I got it off ebay 2nd hand. I think it was for a mk6 fiesta and it needed a bit of modification. I didn't bother making a video on it but looking back I should have. It was really easy anyway, just pull the wheels off because the splitter is too long and goes where the wheels go, then drill and bolt it in place and angle grinded the ends off. Took less than an hour and I faffed about getting it straight for quite a bit, I'd do another in half the time

I have a full exhaust inc 4-2-1 manifold, a performance cam, a remapped piggyback ecu and a k&n filter all ready to go, when we get round to it

Are you running a DET3 piggyback.

@@MultiBruce3 Nothing yet, it's 100% standard engine wise

@@gtclubuk I have a det3 piggyback to put on my van, I have made a 4-1 manifold but it's the other end that's suffering now. Over the winter I have some throttlebodies off of a bmw k1000 bike engine to fit. I will keep an eye on what your doing, it's a pretty interesting car to start tinkering with. Best think I have done is put the van on a diet since the trackday.

@@MultiBruce3 there is a kit available for my car which I have bought, called an SWR ST120 kit. If you google it and have a look, you will see whats included there. It doesn't come with a back box for the exhaust or an air filter so with those added I would expect a couple extra BHP as well. Also I have free use of this dyno and the ECU that comes with is is adjustable so I can go in and fine tune it, and when I say I, I mean Eddie who owns the dyno, I have no idea what I'm doing with the ECU. Your van is the Hijet? That looks like a fun project, maybe I'll bump into you at a track day soon. Where abouts are you based?
