Welsh modified Twingo 133

your english is a lot better then my italian

dashboard is in Miles Per Hour

*any chance the law watchs, yes that was performed on a National Road Speed Limit*

lots of noise, louder on track when sound proofing and panels are removed

and how did you put the dash in miles per hour? in Italy I do not think you can ...

anyway nice noise ... maybe put + pictures!

will get around to some pictures today, going for a drive down the coast.
i will check TOC website for the guide to change from kph to mph.

can you tell me the website of the TOC?

www.twingooc.com

went for 100 mile trip down the Gower in South Wales, great fun but i forgot to charge my camera so had to use my phone, what a let down.

hahaha sorry but I did not realize that meant TOC Twingo OC hahaha ... sorry!

wonderful places orbital!!!

Cup wheels put back on the 133, didnt blacken the tyres as there going to be binned in the next 2 days so kinda lets down the picture and alloy hasnt been buffed up but we're happy with are efforts

location and plans where to mount an under brace using the under trays existing bolt pattern



yellow indicates where the tray bolts into sub-frames. would use this to bolt brace. would lose undertray though.



the Jap GT has its brace starting at the last row of bolts on the frame whilst this would sit higher covering the gap in the frame underneath the engine and gear box mount

Good job!!!
The wheels are beautiful ... Keep us up to date!

£80 for spray and sand paper, wheels were in a very bad way. happy with are home job and learnt a lot. might spray fog surround in orange to break up the colours

It would be a good idea to do as you say ... a question on the forum there is someone who has the 15 "with toyo R888 ... but put the trim or the springs?

put the "trim" sorry?
if hes wondering about lowering springs i would go for it, with the 15" giving a slightly lower centre of gravity and springs should bring it down a bit more and not make the alloys look so lost in the arch. just if theres clearence over speed bumps. speed bumps are UKs beings lowered car killer.
what power at the wheels is he getting? smaller alliy sizes would lose pull off power, say for a drag race a 17" will shoot off the liner quicker but smaller alloys acrry the speed better once moving like taking a corner on a track.

Sorry, but google translator translates badly ...
However, I also wanted to put the wheels 15 with toyo ... hahaha

will handle very well on the track, 15" with r888's. cheaper then 17" ones as well

eheheheh but 17 "is not our measure ... I prefer to change it all!

hi orbital!!! i agree with marco, your car is really amazing why do you change the airbox???

thanks. i was working on an airbox and Green sent me the wrong sized filter. then car was mapped with cone filter so can not swop back to carbon filter as fueling goes wrong.
thanks for comments.
ds2500 pads has been ordered.
next is to get rest of suspension set up and a bucket seat for driver

Bucket seat!! yes !!!!!
But change the filter ... trust me, with the original filter is the same ... and I also mapped the car and there are no changes ....

dont forget im running a different manifold and VVT set up so any slight changes does effect the system. but going back to enclosed system next month and another remap to bring VVT back to 3k rpm and not 4k rpm.
also be trying clio lower wishbone poly mounts and lower engine mount as we believe these may work

well well ... keep us informed of every little change!
