had a bit of fun at Manfeild in the laser was great once i manged to get a full 3 laps, had brake problems at the start the rotors heated up alot and ended up touching the inside the caliper bracket :doubt:

i upgraded the brakes to eunos 800 twin pot calipers and the ae111 rotors been turned down to 260mm should of got another mm taken off instead took a die grinder to the calipers bracket where it was touching at the track got some sweet looks from people well doing soo..

and ended up getting overheating problems with my custom 3 core brass radiator hoping its just not bleed fully, as it would be fine one sec then not the next then fine again was crazy hot tho about 30 degs then had fans on hot to try and help cool it down :lol:

was funny how many people thought it was turbo :icon_smile:

question with my actual project after having cooling problems with the laser started thinking im going to have to do something with the other car ones, as i cant fit any bigger radiator due to space so requires cutting

would this be fine to do for cert wise and on the track, might also tubbed the guards a little depending on how well the front goes so i can run wider tyres then 205s..

any suggest or comments on whats not allowed would be great :iconbiggrin:

yea i will give it a go with one fan only and kind of make a shroud should be ok its a brass/copper 3 core one

and progress for the other car

started cutting to make room for bigger radiator ,more space around engine ect bit ruff but plan on removing more so doesn't matter

plan to do the above with a tubed lower radiator support too and maybe another tube from the strut towers to the front of the chassis rails and then 8 point roll cage in the back

then slam it some more 8-9cms and get wider tyres then 205's :lol:

then hopefully start saving for some engine parts, Zetec shimless buckets ,2.0DOHC Neon titanium springs and titanium retainers+scat 347 rods and CZT 12:1 pistons should do the job
