Went to the unveiling of the new V8 Skelta, Ray has done an awesome job on it, looks and sounds fantastic, but I still wont sell my GTR's. :D

it looks like a semi ugly girl at the pub, once you start to undress her the boobs arn't half bad and the arse looks pretty good. Goes off in the sack after a few and lets you do all the things you want to do to her.

Then when you wake up in the morning, you're faced with her saggy tits and a whale of an arse.

you guys obviously aren't familiar with the previous Skelta! now that was an butt ugly car. This is at least less offensive to the eyes. That's high praise for anything wearing the Skelta badge.

Honestly, I admire Ray for building these things, and they are quick, no doubt, it's just a real shame they look like they do.

Now, if they looked more like an Elfin Streamliner (which are evil handing buckets), he'd be onto something.

yeah slightly better but it just looks as if they have thrown a bunch of flares and wings at it... its just not very well proportioned, no amount of aero is going to hide that fact... although the rear 3/4 view is its best angle by far (mainly because you can't see its face lol)

would be a hoot to drive though... you'd just look like a bit of a tool, but that's what helmets are for;)

    • On the bright side, at least you knew that it happened and remedied before anything happened. A friend of mine just took his Fiat 124 to a shop for an oil change and they didn't tighten the oil filter housing properly. 4.5 quarts spewed out and even after refilling + tightening the cap the engine has a tick now.
    • So, more pain. The FAST manifold is a little larger than the stocker. This is problematic because there really wasn't much clearance to begin with, so going from 'barely enough' well into 'no' is sad based on the external dimensions of the thing, even though where it bolts to the head is the same. Result is the fuel rails sit a good 25mm higher, and this is a bit of an issue with the wiring that runs behind the motor, and the fuel lines, and everything else. When pushing the manifold on, it required a huge amount of force to crush wiring looms to fit it, sensors like the MAP sensor are about 1mm from the firewall, and the FPR just has to bend ABS lines to be forced into place. After some brainstorming and some sad drinking, the loom for some reason ran from the grommet behind the ABS sensor, then to the driver side head, then back to the passenger side head. So all of this was pulled back and stripped, a few wires cut and rejoined, so that the 'branch' was now on the passenger side's head as below: Before you basically couldn't see anything behind the driver head. This is much improved! The MAP sensor is now pointing up (instead of at the firewall) Brackets have been made up for the rail. The rails are for a LS1, the manifold is designed around a LS2 as it's base. Which of course has slightly different bracketry and water pump clearance, hence the mods people need to do. Should be hopefully mounted tonight. I spent money on a new FPR that is slightly more compact than my Turbosmart FPR1200. The gauge has also been moved to the rail. There's also apparently an ORB to AN Union instead of the adapter, because the ~25mm of the current adapter is going to make the difference. Provided this all goes together and arrives today, it'll be the totally not stressful attempt to start it.
    • This seems like a pointless exercise. There is no E30 availability. Ongoing availability of E85 should not be assumed. Flex-fuel is the only sensible approach, so you can use E85 when and where you can get it, 98 when that's al you can get, and anything in between as you fill it up and drain it down. And if that means replacing the pumps, fitting a flex capable sensor/ECU/whatever has to be done to these Renault shitboxen, then.....so be it?
    • Sorry, I wasn't very clear.....just that the standard injectors are apparently good over 600rwhp/450rwkw which you won't get to on standard turbos anyway.....they are much better sized from factory than we are used to in RBs.
