Re: welded viscous coupling on the road
Hi,
What do you want to know?
Welded VC will make your justy constant/permanent 4wd.
Quick rack means less steering wheel turned for same angle of your wheels to be pointing. So let's say you need to have 2.75 turns to right to left. but with quick rack, may me 2 turns.
It can be bit scary when you are at high speed.
Cheers

Re: welded viscous coupling on the road
Thanks im up to date with whats being said now 
i have big plans for my little swifty. Shes currently naked in the bodyshop having a full respray, inside, outside and engine bay!
i have already done the rear disc conversion (my name should be IVER, i mean my dad) and have some nice leather seats and a justy awd system (gearbox backwards)
Next is the gti engine that is not going in the car till it is heavily modified. Would like the good side of 200bhp. I'm good with paint, filler and bodywork in general but abslutely useless with mechanics which is where my dad comes in haha. Money is no object and i am wanting to only buy decent stuff! so if anyone is kind enough please feel free to pm me with links/info on what to buy. How i can reach high bhp, what turbo kit to get...anything, all advice is highly appreciated.
I'm a small fish in a big pond. This is a steep learning curve for me

Re: welded viscous coupling on the road
Hi,
If money is no object, you should tell Andy(Garndi) to build you G13B turbo engine.#
He will make your engine to run as same spec with his Oz car. It might have been 256bhp@wheel.
You can order Cusco to sell you front and rear LSD and so on.
I think final spec will cost you about £15-20k.

yeah, get Garndi to build you an engine, and buy the turbo kit off Turbinetech.ca, and upgrade fuel pump, injectors, rail and pressure regulator.
Then you just need to decide which ECU to go with.

Re: welded viscous coupling on the road
will that power be ridiculous on the road for a couple of days a week driver?
How much is a Garndi Special? and does he supply the engine
I have around £3K saved up after 5 months of abusing my body with 3 different jobs haha. Will be all worth it though!

Re: welded viscous coupling on the road
id say money is an object then. the turbo kit on turbinetech is $3000, about £1900 plus postage and tax. i think Garndi sells the engine for around £1500 depending what bit you want on it, and a good ECU and tune is a good 1k

Re: welded viscous coupling on the road
na, money is no issue. I have a second car (Toyota Paseo 1.5 16v) and enjoy my jobs i do. I have enough money to go out and enjoy my life as well as saving for the car. This project can take as long as it needs as long as the car turns out the way i want it.

Re: welded viscous coupling on the road
if the cars off the road it can be the last thing you buy i guess. On my new project the ecu and fuel system will be the first thing i buy
