You're missing a 'fifth' gear Ned...

 

Hope not in my Quaife sequential gearbox that is going in it :biglaugh::biglaugh:

Ned

 

Just needs florescent green wheels and it'll look like one of yours!

 

Its coming apart :thumbup:

Ned

 

OK engine out

5 GTA engines in one of these pictures, 3 x 3.2 and 2 x 3.8 :biglaugh::biglaugh:

Ned

 

What are you doing with the black wagon?

 

Don't know yet, probably rebuilt for sale, you know rebuilt 3.2, rebuilt gearbox with Quaife, all new brakes, all new suspension so mechanically perfect

Bit of paint some standard wheels powder coated etc etc etc

Ned

 

Hi Ned,

What are the plans for the Mustang in the picture? My 67 fastback looked like that a few years ago!

Darren

 

What are the plans for this one then other than the gearbox? Looks lovely though, maybe wouldn't bother with the orange wheels this time :thumbup:

 

You selling a 3.8 Ned?

 

This is the engine that is going in this car with the sequential gearbox :thumbup::thumbup:

Ned

 

you said 2 x 3.8 and 3 x 3.2 ... whos is the other..

and are you leaving the 3.8 as built last time or do you have other mods planned

 

can you supercharge one and I'll have that please ned

 

You know we can do it if you can pay for it :biglaugh::biglaugh:

What is the crack with your engine, Loz tells me you don't want to use my liners??

Ned

 

Nice, car looks in decent condition!

 

Ned, the red car on the next ramp looks very nice. How's the rebuild on that engine going?

 

Yes your car is coming along nicely too :thumbup::thumbup:

Ned

 

Mounting Quaife gear stick in my car

Ned

 

The wagon was ultra special because it is a wagon...:depressed:

 

Don't worry the Wagon will live again

Ned

 

First time ever Quaife gear stick fitted in a GTA :thumbup:

Not sure about the colour but this is not about vanity :biglaugh:

Ned

 

So Ned - if you were ever going to offer VBH another drive of that GTA I think you just blew your chance with that choice of colour!

 

WOOPS , looks phallic lol

 

The business end :biglaugh:

Ned

 

This is not going to be as simple as we thought, we are having to make changed to the gear selector and make a difference mounting bracket for the slave

All doable :thumbup:

Ned

 

Had a bit of a hold up on this as the gearbox had to go back to Quaife for a couple of slight design changes, the selector is now coming out the front of the box as there was not going to be enough room at the back with the sub frame etc

Engine is back in and we are working out the cable length etc so will probably need to come out again, we will see

Also you will see we are still going with the remote oil cooler but this time we are using steel braided teflon oil cooler pipes

Note the temporary clutch slave bracket as the location of the slave had to be changed

Ned

 

New slightly longer gear cable arrived today and now it fits and works, the feel of the gear shift is really definite, feels great I can't wait to drive it and start slamming it through the gears :biglaugh::biglaugh:

Still a lot to do but I am sure it will all be up and running next week

Ned

 

Looking forward to this, its gonna be great. You'll have to record some video for us all once its all up and running.

 

Yer this fast gear change is going to sound fantastic though your Wizard exhausts so bet you are

I literally can not wait, felt the gear change today for the first time, it is going to be full throttle, bang - bang - bang though the gears no let off :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Ned

 

Makes me want a GTA now :thumbup:

 

I have saved 4000 euros for total body works... or this -almost ;D ..... hmmm

 

Just been for the first test drive with the sequential, this is not going to be for everyone but it is fantastic, the gearchange is so unbelievably fast and direct

It makes the car feel a lot faster and aggressive

Car is back in the workshop now to check the levels etc

More work tomorrow

Ned
