Jamies Track built GTi 6 (new replacement purchased!)

[Tallguy_2]

Both seats were now in, very nice and low, also dead central to the steering wheel, really happy with them.

I then got a jetex exhaust delivered this week, mainly as i heard they were nice and quiet, sought after and well made, so i prepped it and coated it ready to go on the car....

I thought I'd attempt this myself! My mate said to put the car over the pit and off I went, bit of a mission getting the lambda sensor out and the box off the back! Eventually it all came crashing down, cat and everything!

Putting the decat and new system on took a bit of fitting and moving in to place, after a bit of time it seemed pretty good and sounded mint when it' started up, nice and crisp yet not boomy at all!!!!!

The cat decided it would sit in all the old exhaust rust, carbon and all the general shite.... This didn't go down well!

Looks good pal... You totally stripping it out then?

Oh yes! I've only really built it for track as the cars not used as an everyday vehicle

I then had a huge spell where nothing really happened. The car was off the road so it wasn't really a problem.

Been flat out readying the kart and stock car and at work doing loads of hours saving for Daytona 500 next year

So we set too a good weekend on the old Reemer, got the rear beam lowered by a notch and the new adjustable shocks and springs on the front along with some mintex 1155 pads, braided hoses, racing fluid and the strut brace, an absolute transformation!

As for the wheels i happen to be lucky enough to have access to a few race teams, luckily enough though I found myself some direct fit part magnesium team dynamics wheels which are a little bit special at 4.8 kg's in 17"

Needed a massive push like that in the right direction.

I wanted to get along to the French car night at ace too but only wanted to go if it looked half decent so when I had the car at home in the evenings I had all the seats and subframes back out and painted the floors, made myself some aluminium foot plates and fitted the rear interior cards which were ripped, splitter which was missing, mirrors as one was cracked and pillar vinyl's on which was handy as they were split, sparco boss, wheel and spacer etc

Next it was all ready to go and meet some new people at ACE French car night which was really cool,

It was nice to put faces to names etc but I really enjoyed seeing other cars and different peoples individual ideas and takes on different things.

I'd never modified a car before or been part of a "scene" or to any meets but fair play to you all, there's a lot of talented people in lots of different areas that can put the resources available to fu#*ing good use, this made it pretty enjoyable just having a browse

Anyway here's some pics I think "dum dum" took
