How come you don't have an adjustable venier pulley? what capacity is it (if its 1900 the power seems very low imo)

its a 1600

 

and the pully was a early one with a roll pin

 

re drilled and locked but be honest the timing was very close to standard gti timing

 

i had to check power band info and we are cock on

 

reason i checked is when we had the ignition timing prob.... co driver blamed valve timing.... so it was checked and double checked

 

it is easy to condem engine work

 

but when it comes down to it i stand my ground.... and i was right on this occasion

 

1 look at dissy brought the fault straight to surface

 

co drivers suck ass!

If its 1600, why does it have the spacer plate!

 

I washed a carb in a dishwaser once, opened the washer to early and fuel smelled steam filled the room. OOPS.

spacer plate and 1.9 sump for bottom end strength

 

trying to makr the engine strong and powerfull

 

now all we need is the driver to rev it harder

 

my last conversation went as follows

 

that shift light is no good.... it never flashed once....when did you change gear? duno!

 

well try letting the shift light flash.... rev the f***in thing!!!

sounds like its going to be good, any more spec on the rest of the car?

[Baz 421]

It'd be good to see a graph?

 

I'm sure you said it was 125ATW in another thread...

it would be great to see a graph but i don`t have 1 as i said mr bogg does not run a digital rolling road

 

just a analog dial on wall

 

end of the day our little 1.6 gti seeing 120ish on dial is good too me

 

and as you can see from pics the basics are there

 

it is out this weekend so fingers crossed we will get a good result

 

i will get some more pics and spec of car at weekend

[BackStreetRacecars 3]

to be honest did not chect the cr

 

it was a early 105 bhp motor so swapped head with a good 1.9 and gave it a good skim

 

 

as for jetting i will be taking it back after our event this weekend

 

 

want to see if we can get ant more out of her

 

 

and am sorting spec and pics at mo

got some pics uploaded

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

these are as it look`s at the mo

 

some spec as follows

 

16 gti seam welded shell

 

be3 1.6 box standard box with quaife atb diff/ we also have a really short be1 for twisty bits

 

ap paddle clutch

 

bilstien coil overs front

 

bilstien rear shock

 

fully rebuilt rear 1.9 axle with frodo 2500 pads

 

brake pipes all aeraquip through car

 

magnex full system with standard front pipe

 

hydraulic hand brake

 

standard bottom arms with super flex bushes

 

oil breather

 

front brakes 1.9 with 2500 frodo pads

 

 

after this event at the weekend the engine will be getting a good once over as its finished its 3rd rally and will be nicely run in then back to tuners for some pep

 

the only thing i might look at will be the brakes... we are running a standard set up and it might benifit some bias...

 

but it is going well at the mo with a bit more development it will be great

"Frodo pads" PMSL! best misspelling I've seen in ages!

 

no extra compression?

 

Lumpy stick + standard 8 valve compression = horrible unde 2.5-3k

sorry for my dyslexia... thats why i became a mechanic and not a teacher lol

 

as for cr head had a heavy skim but i did not calculate the ratio

 

it was too much like hard work

 

and it does like high revs

[BackStreetRacecars 3]

looking good!! Always like see purposeful looking 205s.... only thing i'd like to see extra on there is a timing belt cover!!!
