BMW Rallying Forum

this all started a long time ago but with work, other peoples rallys and buying a pub (seemed like a great idea at the time) its all taken rather a long time, but i have started to make some progress.and will now get the car built i have got most of the bits together s14 engines x2, six speed sequentul box (was surposed to come yesterday):shock: BIG brakes and 3 way ajustable suspension the shell has all been done and sprayed inside (see tread in engines )so i just need to get it all put together i enterd the car in r.o.t.m last year and ended up using my trusty old 205 so it has to be ready for this time outher wise i will never here the last of it

Nowt wrong with buying a pub.

ROTM has previously been proposed as a suitable event for a BMWrallying forum meet/onslaught.

Absolutely superb Steve, love the cage and attention to detail.

We did meet very briefly ar MIRA, hoping to do it again this year (and do more than 2 miles ) so hopefully see you there.

In the near future I intend to buy a TIG and do another shell,yours sort of puts mine to shame really.......

Lookin forward to seeing her.

Suspension wise, are you going with the AST's Steve? Look like very good kit and Andy is happy with his! Its coming together for you now, get some trim in and get it out on the VK!!

Mick.

yes i already have the ast uprights i am droping the fronts to get the bells and mounting brakets made for the brakes ps i dont think they would like the arch kit on the vk

ok more work done extinguishers and lines fitted,pedal box and brake lines fitted hydrolic? h brake fitted should have the fuel lines in tomorow thats if i can remember whats what on the fuel tank struts and brakes will be back mid weekso they will go strait on i will take some more pics and show you how its going gear box still has not come starting to piss me off now they have been promising it for weeks now and i keep on spending the money

what make of gearbox are you using?

its an elite six speed if it ever tuns up that is

Keep the piccies coming, it sounds like its going to start taking shape

well that sought of worked the pics all have the right hand side missing but its better than my last attemped any way i have made some progress and due to not a lot off work i should be able to push on a bit in the next few weeks (you watch some tosser go and spoil it)

looking at your pics, are you not running a standard handbrake too? or am i missing something?

no i will set up something that has cables running to the rear pads up to the hydrolic hand brake as long as they move when the handbrake is pulled it should be ok the car has got ap 4 pots on the back witch is why i didnt leave the standard one in place
