RE: jammapic's XUD 306 DTurbo Track Car - puglove - 25-06-2012
Loving how to wash an xud in less than 2mins video but.........................................id have a word with the people driving up and down your street at rediculus speeds
But after seeing this at fcs you have tidied the body up, it was a bit worse for wear the last time i seen her lol
RE: jammapic's XUD 306 DTurbo Track Car - jammapic - 25-06-2012
It still is very worse for wear tbh... Once I've got the engine / mechanicals all sorted it'll be going for a respray / new wings etc
RE: jammapic's XUD 306 DTurbo Track Car - jammapic - 29-06-2012
So done some cleaning of the car today, and got it booked in at pugfest to visit the dentman and try and get some of the (many) dents knocked out of the rear 1/4's.
Hoping to get a good few runs up the hill this weekend!

Would love to have a ride in this tomorrow! Will have to say hello if I see you

RE: jammapic's XUD 306 DTurbo Track Car - jammapic - 01-07-2012
You should've come over! We ripped up the hill a few times before the hangover getting the better of us all!

good to meet you again JP

Haha! Cheers Cully!
RE: jammapic's XUD 306 DTurbo Track Car - Rippthrough - 01-07-2012
Gah, didn't manage to get due to a mate and my brother not getting their lazy f*cking arses out of bed, what did you want doing to the cage?
RE: jammapic's XUD 306 DTurbo Track Car - jammapic - 01-07-2012
front hoop and door bars...
RE: jammapic's XUD 306 DTurbo Track Car - Rippthrough - 01-07-2012
The only issue with adding to the cage you have is very probably I wouldn't be able to weld the entire circumference of the a-pillar bars where they meet the existing rear half cage - it would probably be very difficult to get around the top unless it stops a good few inches shy of the roof?
Unless it needs to be MSA approved it's not really a massive issue.
RE: jammapic's XUD 306 DTurbo Track Car - jammapic - 01-07-2012
No, it's pretty tight up to the sunroof tbh.
Doesn't need to be MSA approved, just so if I roll it over I don't break my head!
RE: jammapic's XUD 306 DTurbo Track Car - Rippthrough - 01-07-2012
That's okay then, should be doable with patterns for my cages so, a pillar bars, door bars (single or doubles?), what about upper windscreen bar? Dash bar?
RE: jammapic's XUD 306 DTurbo Track Car - jammapic - 01-07-2012
Singles please, yes want an upper windscreen bar but no dash bar yet... one day I will man up and rip the dash out!

Sealed battery box is about £56 last time I looked c/w cable seals and a rather strap to hold lid firmly in place
RE: jammapic's XUD 306 DTurbo Track Car - Rippthrough - 01-07-2012
Okay, I'll get you a rough price, will need to have a closer look at your cage sometime to give a firm quote - I can offer one of my pillars up and see if it'll fit without doing a new program.

Sweet... Cheers mate!
RE: jammapic's XUD 306 DTurbo Track Car - Midnightclub - 02-07-2012
Gah! Wish i did now, got held up cleaning the 6' and the HDi
, car looked pretty awesome on track! Good to see a quick derv for a change
RE: jammapic's XUD 306 DTurbo Track Car - jammapic - 02-07-2012
Cheers mate, glad it looked good... Felt good on track too. It's nice to be able to explore the chassis a bit more than you can on the road with it. Everything seems to have come together nicely and made a pretty sorted track car in the end!
A couple more pics of me hillclimbing.

I hate smoke...
I've spent a year trying to keep the power and eliminate as MUCH smoke as possible :-)

I know what you mean mate.. I knew i would but as soon as i left i regretted not going up the hill.. had been umming and arring all day! Any idea on how it performed in comparison to similar power petrols that ran?
RE: jammapic's XUD 306 DTurbo Track Car - jammapic - 02-07-2012
All I know is it was pretty fast.
Seemed to pull out of the tight corners better due to better low down torque etc.
I.e out of the tight left hand hairpin, where petrols were bogging right down and having to get revved right up again - we were on full boost immediately (so long as we dropped to 1st gear) and on it down the back straight up to the esses.

Ah, fair play then really! I did notice alot of cars bogging on that corner and having to clutch kick to try and get them going again lol

Exactly what i had to do
RE: jammapic's XUD 306 DTurbo Track Car - jammapic - 02-07-2012
Didn't have to at all in Pierre.
2nd gear dropped JUST off boost (full boost at 2500rpm) and it dropped to about 2300rpm so took about 1s to get back on the boil, but 1st gear was full boost mid hairpin if we wanted it!

RE: jammapic's XUD 306 DTurbo Track Car - Midnightclub - 02-07-2012
I'd blame that mainly on the box for the 6's though jamie, 45mph in first is pretty long! Especially when compared to 25-30mph in 1st in a DT/HDi
RE: jammapic's XUD 306 DTurbo Track Car - ash240970 - 02-07-2012
This is the same battery box i had in my landy for the winch - this one doesnt come with seal for the cables and a ratchet strap tho http://www.vehicle-wiring-products.eu/VWP-onlinestore/battconns/battaccs.php
