Helloo again, Not seen you for a while
« on: June 09, 2008, 03:46:42 pm »
Hi again, someone kindly sent me a reminder to drop in and say hi...when the new site went up, my login all went funny and it just was a real pain to get in, so being typical bloke I left it, and then I got stuck in the Toyota Sprint Series and I just never sorted it all out.

But hey, I am back again and I thought I would say hello and give you a quick update.

The 165 "Trinity" is still good and well, running bits from various others 165s as normal, Bretski and Bigfurb, being the latest providers of bits.

The car spec has moved on since you last saw me.

I now run a FMIC, along with straight intake. The HKS EVC boost controller is finally fitted, and I have upgraded both Power steering and gearbox coolers with dedicated Mocal coolers.

Currently, as I type, my cylinder head is being machined as I did not check it when I fitted it at the end of last year, turns out it was slightly warped" >:( no one to blame bar me... the issue became apparent just after the latest Barkston Heath round of the TSS.. slightly affecting my times in the afternoon runs.

But it will all be back together and stronger than ever for Teeside this weekend!!

Straight after Teeside the car is gaining a Link G3 Ecu, bigger top feed injectors off an Evo 330 and will be re mapped. Fingers crossed we will get to the naughty side of 300bhp.

The TSS has been great, after suffering Brake issues (finally traced to a 2nd replacement M/C being full of crap) at the first event we we finished 23rd over all and 12th in class, Barkston was much more like it, and we got 8th in class and 18th overall!! I compete with full trim etc, I even have still got my amps on the back seats!! so to be close to many of the stripped out 185s and 205s was really great!!!

Few recent pics!!









From round one at waterbeech.


I also had a old ford fun car for a bit, till the missus said "enough cars!"



So big hello to you all, and I will try to stay on site much more.

Cheers

Hi Chris, yeah should be a great event, the track is supposed to be twisty which should suit me and the 165!!

Def catch up then!
