My Lada 2107 Racecar Project

Any way for you to fit some proper disc brakes onto it? Seems like a lot of effort you're going through to end up settling for a near-stock setup for something like that.

But yea, great work, I wish you the best of luck with the rest of it :thumbsup:

Yeah, Opel Kadet GSI brakes later. Now= stock with racing pads (Ferrodo). They do the Job quite well, the only problem is the heat :( . But later it will get the GSI brakes + brake balancer, hidraulic ebrake.

Today a made an exhaust for the car, and DAMn it sounds great :thumbsup: . From the muffler its deep, and harsh, and at the engine its like a barking dog (dellortos rule).
 
so it'll be a drift car?
not a rally car?

what type of suspenion does it have? wishbones? independant?

Its not to good (the stock), but you can set everything in the front (chamber, caster, toe in), and now it has special absorbers, and much harder springs.

I dunno yet, first of all its going to be used for drifting and track, maybe later rally, but that costs way to much (damage repare always etc).
 
It seems that I need to move the car into another garage (@ our weekend house). The only problem is that it is ~40 km from here, so the trailer would be expensive, so i need to do some temporarly wireing, and move the car on its own, and finish the final things down there. But it seems that the car will be 100% done at the end of august :thumbsup: .
 
Today i did my first KM with the car :woot: Damn, its FUCKIN fast :mrgreen: . The engine needs to get breaked in, so i cant rev it over 3000 rpm, but i smoked some ruber in second gear @ 2500 :mrgreen: . So its almost finished :thumbsup: . Lights are working, but the dash is just temporary. Battery is behind the passanger seat, easy to access. The feeling is awesome!! Its fuckin loud, it shakes (hard springs), I love it! Everybody looked at me, while i was driving on the street :) . But let the pics talk!

I need to put back the passangerseat, paint my bbs rims, and some minor things... Oh and put 800 km in the engine before reving it up to 8000 :mrgreen:
 
You could kill off that 800km in one night.

Looks like a mean bastard. We'll want some videos =)
 
^ I have some, but its taken with phone, and its crappy :( . Well its not a big miss, cos its only the fireup, and some revving. So nothing special. My cam is at a racing team, its an incar cam now :) . Later I will make lots of vids, thats for sure :thumbsup:
 
there are mixed opinions about breaking in an engine... some say to beat the hell out of it(not kidding) and some say to do what you are doing but a local 1100 hp supra put its first miles on the dyno producing those power figures
 
I think the best would be the Dyno :) . But since i dont have one... :lol: Dyno is good, cos you can program up you ignition, fuel etc. But its expensive.
 
nice
so when are you planning to race it
are there any events planned in near future in budapest ? I might just go and see you and the Lada - its not that far from Ljubljana
 
:woot: This car is just awesome. Can't wait to see some high quality vids of it mancs 8)
 
^haha yeah, me to :lol: . Well I'l get my camera back, and I'l make some :) . Here are some more pics till than :) . And if you want to ask, wtf am i doing here, and not driving, well i dont have my license plate yet, so I have to wait :thumbsdown: . After i get my license plate, full photoshoot, and video will be done :mrgreen:
