i made an error and booked my MOT a bit to early so had to cancel that today,
so instead i took the time to fit the B8's with Euback springs that i have refurbished.
i bought these second hand and when they turned up they were in poor condition once i stripped to inspect them

so i decided to refurb them with a good clean with electrolisis then rust treatment and a coat of paint

I have a top tip for expanding the hud grip from the pinch bolt ive seen it mentioned else where and it works a treat!
8mm hex key into the slot and turn No hammer or chisels
old hub out new in no trouble!
![[Image: DSCF2135.jpg]](http://smg.photobucket.com/user/cully/media/struts/DSCF2135.jpg.html)
have been and had the tracking re done just to set my mind at rest car is a lot different on these now to get used to them and find their limits
on a side not ive blagged some white self adhesive vinyl for some temporary repair of the paint flakes and also some black to redo the door B pillars as that looks old and tired

That whit vinyl shows how white your car isn't. Liking that 8mm allen key trick.
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 17-04-2015
today if finished something i started last year and to be honest its made a big difference to the car wish id finished this earlyer
have finished and fitted the enlarged throttle body
to enlarge it, I roughed it out in a lathe first, then I finished it with a small grinding stone, where it broke through the casting i filled it with chemical metal from the outside and smoothed it with the stone,
on fitting it, I fitted a new Gasket which I enlarged the opening so to not cause restriction

RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - Dum-Dum - 17-04-2015
Yeah they do make a huge difference, I love my ported body.
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - ozonehostile - 17-04-2015
I've been wanting to do this for a while, known to make a nice difference on tu5 engines so should be great on an Xu10 with that lovely inlet manifold.
Time to get busy on the lathe
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - 7057sam - 17-04-2015

thats the first thing i noticed when blipping the throttle from under the bonet you get a noise like a snake hiss on opening the butterfly

You'll wash that bloody car away if your not careful.

you sound like my wife!
its the only way to get it clean
the more you wash it the cleaner it becomes as you put more effort into finding the dirt
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - ginge191 - 18-04-2015
What's the chance you'd be able to do another one of those bodies, thats amazing
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 21-04-2015
yesterday was a good day!
car went in for MOT came back with 13months ticket and no advisories
filled the girl with V-power for a trip to London Ace cafe French car night, Left at 2:45 got to Ace a 6:15 had a good night left there at 10:00pm got home at 12:15am just as i got home the fuel light came on
380 miles round trip, my maths says about 31mpg on 55ltrs not bad for a six at 77mph on the motorway
oh i also have a new high score on the sat nav so it wernt all economy driving
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 20-05-2015

Just a standard day in the run up to French car show
ticked off today's list was
oil change
air filter
Plugs
Ive also opened up the fan cowling to let more Air through the oil cooler cause ive booked hot weather for track time
another thing I have done is added some wiring to the impact sensor so I can bridge it out with a blade fuse while on track
so bianca is nearly ready
things left to do..
nut and bolt check
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - Poodle - 27-05-2015
This thing really is looking beautiful... Any chance of a guide for the impact switch mod? Lots more members getting into track time now, would be useful to have.
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - Dum-Dum - 27-05-2015
How often do you set off the impact switch? I've only managed it once or twice in bastard low cars hitting monster pot holes, is it really that much of an issue on track?
Car is looking super clean though.
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - cully - 27-05-2015
The car is far from clean today its dirty!
ive still got to clean it before show
what ive done for the mod is......
the impact switch has 2 wires to the bottom,
connect one wire of the same gauge to each wire,
run wires to engine bay fuse box.
crimp spade crimps on each wire.
when on track insert 30amp fuse into the spades to bridge the kill switch.
if the switch activates the load is taken through the fuse bypassing the kill switch
remove fuse to turn car back to standard
RE: Cully's Bianca 6 R150 YVM - Poodle - 28-05-2015
Haha thanks, i figured as much, just thought others might benefit. Keep meaning to make a guide full of minor useful track mods, switchable fans etc, but struggle to find the time/inclination.
It's not likely to be needed, Chris, but if the worst happens i'd like to be able to get off track without having to be towed or getting out to reset the switch lol.
