Hi all just thought id say hi n let ya know ive ordered my vortx kit should be ready before xmas cant wait,

Cheers
Justin

great choice of kit. ive had 2 and if not for my caterham id buy another! great guys up there. chris and mark will do all they can to help. and it will avoid going through the horror stories that come with other kit manufacturers. if they can they will help if not they will find a way. honest guys and a good product! beers good at their local too!
what engine have you gone for? and you probably wont need a donor car unless youve not gone for one of their full starter kits.
if i can help in any way please ask. cheers

Hi,
Ive gone for hayabusa engine and have gone for module kit format, mnr supply all donor parts at reasonable cost but thought id try and find a complete car cheaper...there seems to be a few about but with wrong ratio diff boo!

so may just get em from mnr.

Thanks for the offer of help.

Justin

what donor parts would you need other than diff,drive shafts and rear hubs?
front and rear uprights are in the kit,front hubs and discs also,
theres a 3.14 diff on ebay for £300 atm so i would look at that. then possibly convert to lsd if needed. at a later date. youll pick up shafts and rear hubs for £100 probably. rear discs and calipers can be bought from big red at any time for not massive money.

Good choice mate, good luck with the build.

Ive been building mine for afew weeks now, so if you need any help just shout up.

daniel... fair point n mnr do a 3.14 for £350 which aint too bad.

relph....how are ya getting on with your build and are you a mate of leons?

justin

3.14 are very very rare now. snap one up and if mnr's recon diff is £350 id just bite the bullet. very few sierras had this ratio.

They might advertise this price,but have they any in stock?

£300 for a 3.14 needs buying now, even if you decide to go with something else it will not lose money, mine cost £250 4 years ago.

i agree with mark. buy it now,
i have a hayabusa force racing 2-1 merge colector with cat delete pipe for £35 posted if you want it? will also save you a few quid if you want it, collectors can be £100 plus

Thanks for the offer, but I've got full system coming from mnr.

Justin

Nice to see your on with it mate excellent choice you must have been given good advice

Mr relph is a good friend too he's in notts so loads of MNR cars invading our area..
