jesus.......400bhp...........what would that be like in a bay?? ive never driven one but id say youd be concentratin too hard to smile!

 

[darragh]

do tvr make engines?

 

[Aidan]

Its a tweaked Land Rover engine basically. Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course.

 

[richiemack]

The concept is cool but would you want to go that fast in a bay, would you die?probably!!
It's Funny how some of thes guys put so mch effort into the mechanics of these things and they end up looking totally mank

I can understand uprating the brakes and suspension wouldnt be too difficult relatively speaking, but you'd have to upgrade the steering as well, and thats the bit I cant figure out. How could you put decent steering in a bay?

 

[JustinOval]

Rack and pinion? Red9 do a full wishbone R&P conversion kit.

 

[JustinOval]

 

[Endfloat]

Ah ok! I always thought because of the steering wheel position that rack and pinion steering was impossible.

 

[JustinOval]

Creative do a simpler kit that retains the original centre pin and track rods but is driven by a rack and bevel box.

 

[JustinOval]

 

[Endfloat]

Now that's clever!

 

[JustinOval]

It's only a half conversion really, if your centre pin or balljoints are worn it won't make any difference, and replacing them along with a decent steering box would probably be as good.
