Ordered through my local Alcon supplier who gets the adaptors and hats made overseas to suit the specific application.
Yet to track test them as I'm still waiting on endless pads that are on back order until next year so I have no info on the seal longevity but a lot of the local time attack...
Alcon TA6+ BBK with TRUSTALIGN spec 355x32 rotor (only 5mm larger in diameter than OE to keep weight in check)
Rotor is 8.5kg which is 1.5kg lighter than OE and all its competitors.
Trying catless to see if I can get a few extra horses at the top of the rpm range.
Also deleted the wireless charger that I never use to save some weight.
Splitter I designed and worked with a local carbon shop to create.
Produces ~ 2-300kg of down force at 200kph based on ride height data extracted from the factory height sensors.
I have seen a few old/used ones and they definitely get crushed/pitted over time but hard to say if its from reinstallation or from chassis flex etc etc.
Well lets see so far I haven't seen any movement or issues running a pretty potent aero package but I'm about to move on to R compound semi's...
Yes that's right, the shoulders of the collar is designed to fill the gap between the shank of the subframe bolt and the subframe itself, but by covering the OE friction plate it then relies on the compressive strength of the aluminium shoulders of the collar to prevent any subframe movement...
That's right, technically a snug fitting sleeve would do the job just as good, but you might lose it in the tunnel and would be difficult to extract without fully dropping the subframe. Not to mention the tunnel itself may not be perfectly round and cylindrical all the way through. Whereas a...
I designed my own collars as I don't like the design of the Spoon/other commercially available ones. The Spoon actually lower the subframe by 1-1.5mm which lowers the roll centers, and I'm convinced that's what people are feeling when they feel like their car is more comfortable/compliant after...
Main thing is air flow management (ie. prevent the air entering the grille from escaping around the radiator, fill the voids with foam, etc etc) and ethanol fuel.
Hardrace pillow ball rear B arm upright bushing fitted in place of the OE rubber one ✅
Project Mu type PS rear pads + Paragon 2 PC discs fitted.
May be worth noting that the hat is 1.5mm thicker than the OE disc. This will result in the wheel sitting 1.5mm further out (effecting a decrease in...
Mounting up some craft square replica mirrors, 3D scanning the door to design a mounting plate. Also reverse engineering the BSM system and relocating the warning light into the door so it still works with the new mirrors.
The FL5 will log an engine over speed code, however it doesn't carry any freeze frame data so you won't know exactly how high rpm it went. But I would say if there's no immediate grenading shortly after the event, you should be in the clear. Be careful next time.
• Fabbed up a bracket to hold my intake pipe to the body, it's one of those types that go under the hose clamps of the silicone joiner. The ones commercially available are cheese (last one broke).
• Increased spring rates going on to deal with the extra load from the new aero package.
• Race...
