Gtsi-R red'n black coupé

[Gtsi-R]

2 weeks ago I'd change my timing belt and watter pump.

this was probbarbly a long time ago since the last change.

so that is alright for an other 100.000 km

last sunday I had a great meeting in Lelystad on the midland circuit.

this was the first time for me to realy try the car out on a track..





and there are also movies made

My best lap:

had a great time, but my dampers and springs are not that great...

so that will be be the next investment!!

Just finding out what is a nice setup.. I would realy like to go for a coilover kit... but that is so expensive...

Hey,
none of Ad's cars have a great suspension. But thats ok for the way he uses the car. Time to go up a lvl

5.5 kg mm front
4 or 4.5 kg/mm rear

full poly bushings and start having fun!

so.. bit quit here in the project topic...

but trough a colleage of mine I am bussy with XYZ coilover's and a big brake kit, inspecially to find out what they deliver etc.!!

but I have an other problem.. my exhoust is leaking a bit
actually it is torn down before the first muffler so is making terrible noise


I was @ home at 23.30 last night .... and the whole citty must have heard me

but I have got some Stainless steel welding products of my own.. (100% argon gas, en stainless welding wire/thread... , so will make my own exhoust..

but for a 4agze and aiming for around the 200hp approx.

2 of 2,5 inch diameter?? couse now I still have the choise!!

I guess that bothe are sufficient for the Job
and will work allot better than the old original one..

[robokill]

60mm pipe diameter. is fine. I used 55mm on mine which is NA. Considering yours is boosted I would go 60MM from the 2 point on. (so cut the pipe off at the place where the header goes from 2 -1

[Gtsi-R]

why from the 2 point on ??

By enlarging the header or so? to create more flow? Dont Quite untherstand that,
so somewhere between the 2 and 2,5 Inch..


will check for that after my hollidays to Mallorca..

[Gtsi-R]

It will be a Megan Racing 2.5 Inch Stainless Steel Exhaust

Hope to be delivered by the postman soon so I can make some adjustments and fit it to my car!!

also buying @ the moment..:

* Koni yellow with low springs,
* 4AGZE 176mmm Supercharger Pully
* T3 Adjustable Panhard rod
* Poly Bushing Set
* other shiftknob
