Brought out the new hustler for some tarmac time yesterday :) Hopefully will have it running ship shape for Aldon at the end of the month. It deffo needs that subframe Pete :o

1473cc with forged pistons avec under side oil squirters.
Fully lightened and balanced
Windage tray and baffled sump pan.
Stage 3 BVH
Schrick cam with vernier (dialled in valve timing)
that engine looks very very nice mate.
Very Nice, Nick. Who did the cyl head ? What block is that, a 1W ?
Hope you have a subframe and diff ! :o
Awesome! Mental engine and what a lovely shell to put it in.
I hope you do get this to the RR day Nick, can't wait to see what it makes.
I don't suppose you have any pictures of the sump baffles do you?

Looks spot on. Nice to see the project nearing to an end. I say end, its clearly not the end but more a major milestone. Well done
Whilst i get a decent chip setup for the red top injectors, i've been taking it easy off boost with the stock injectors and Mr Lawrence chip. All i can say is this could be a dangerous weapon with a turbo strapped to it, damn rampant off boost ;D
Head work is so good I'll be lucky to see past 11 psi with the 40 :o
jesus what a nice colour, it looks awesome that
is this the one you been working on all this time?
i thought it was a diff colour one?
cool anyhow!
Yep, this is the one i've been accumulating bits for since my saloon got wrote off in August '06. It'll be over in West Yorks on Tuesday for a custom stainless exhaust then hopefully in for a rolling road mapping session in a couple of weeks. Been a long while, but well worth the wait 8)
Nick this looks absolutly mint mate! love it!
have you had this on a rolling road yet Nick? Also, will it be putting some appearances in at shows this year? ;D
Looks freakin sweet that mate.
Be interested to know what sort of boost pressures you're showing once you've run it in. Mine shows 8psi on the gauge with a seemingly identical spec and made 167bhp at aldon.
Who did your head work? Impulse?
At BVF 2007

How she stood at BVF 2009 last weekend

very nice mate, best colour imo.
you had it on any rollers yet?
Nah not yet mate, need to get it rolling road mapped before i go for a dyno run.
Should see good power though even with the 40 blower ;)
tidy mate ;D
is this a 1w bottom end mate or have you modified the py lump?

Got a few changes planned for the mk2 this year basically to get the most out of the 1.5 ;D
Finally have my Quaife fitted now in a serviced G40 box to help keep the power down. Really impressed with the smoothness compared to the hardcore Gripper plate diff.

A charger upgrade in the form of a G werks serviced blower

And my OZ rim replacements finally arrived this week. These will be getting treated to some softer rubber for track use.

A subframe will come later in the year too once the new compression is plumbed in and running right.
And if I can get from this

to anywhere near to this at the end of it all, I'll be a happy chap 8)

nice wheels!
What sort of power are you hoping for Nick?
Wheels were a bit of a stumble across, had planned on a new set of OZ Superturismo GT's originally. Whilst looking at photos of those fitted to cars, I noticed the Speedline Comp 2's fitted to quite a few 106 Rallyes. Then when I found out they did them in 4x100 as well as 4x108 the choice was made ;D
Max, scope for power output will be about 220 bhp i reckon, just depends on how this schrick cam works with the higher boost.
