Description:

Shows the construction of my Westfield Sport 2000 module build (lotus 7 inspired) sportscar. The engine is a ford duratec 2.0l with a Weber Alpha throttle body injection (204hp), with lightened flywheel, sports clutch plate (hydrolic), connected to an MT75 - 5 speed quick shift gearbox. This is connected to a 3.92 LSD Ford 7" differential. Suspension is fully independent and fully adjustable with a wide track front arrangement and front and rear and roll bars fitted. Brakes are AP racing 4 pot (ventilated discs) at the front and VW golf mk4 solid discs at the rear, operated by an AP Racing master cylinder.

Ta! If you've not visited the site already do a search for WSCC on google. It's a great club for builders and enthusiast and you can always get good advice, build help, organised track days etc (plus the odd bargain). After all if I can build one with no mechanical experience I'm sure anyone can ;-)

I hope you don't fit the starter motors to the engines, bloody thing refused to work today after a good blat in the sun. Let's the look of the car down when your outside a packed pub whacking the starter with a spanner to dislodge it ;-) LOL ha ha!

It's not patience you need, it's better instructions!! It's just like a big mechano set if you go down the module build route. What more can you ask for? high performance and cheap insurance and a car you can tweek to your hearts content. Only thing I need is some good weather ;-) If I'd had all the bits in one go I could have quite easily completed the car in 4 weeks and finished it to a high quality. I completed the first 2 modules over the first weekend!
