Re: Matt's Mk 2 Grp 2 Zakspeed Replica

Hi Matt
First off, good job on the build, really good looking car and sounds great
I was wondering where you bought your kit and did you have choices?
Sorry if it's in the thread, I haven't read it all and I'm a little late to the party

Hey mate, thanks for the compliment

Kit was from old ford autos

They have a few kits available

Cheers

Matt

Re: Matt's Mk 2 Grp 2 Zakspeed Replica

hi matt how much hp at the rear wheels and how much did it loose in drive train cheers Mario.

Hi Mate, We got 135hp atw but this was on a very conservative tune and we didn't rev it too much


We had it dyno'd at 189hp at the flywheel

Cheers

Another vid from Tuesday...Damn it was wet!

Re: Matt's Mk 2 Grp 2 Zakspeed Replica

Looks great, sounds great.

Have you stopped grinning yet?

Given how wet it was here Tuesday, that was one hell of a day for a shake down.

Good to see it back on the trailer in one piece.

Do you know why the wiper motor died? I'm sure you've already got it sorted but if not I have one you can have.

Shaun.

Yep, still grinning....

Not 100% why it died. We had wired it up direct to the motor with 12v and just the high speed setting. I'll take you up on that offer mate as a spare would be great. I'll be in touch

Cheers

First track day at Sandown went off without a hitch. Car was perfect and didn't have any dramas apart from the weather and the wiper motor crapping itself. Otherwise the car is fucking amazing and is just a beast

A few little things to sort out like better chair position and mirrors

Here's the pics and vids - Id love some feedback

Cheers

Matt









Lots of brake dust...



Vids

Sorry for the angle

Safely back on the trailer
