Do you know what the weight was before you started so you can compare after?




I live in about 80 km from the Nürburgring , and I intend to use my Fury.
The engine should develop enough about 250ps .
At the Nürburgring I have seen 95% light cars such as Lotus,Westfield,Rush have only with ventilated disks .
Plus the record it weighs 4.6kg and is a 267x20,5 .
While the solid disc was 260x10 and weighs 3.9 kg .
Based on these things , I decided to take this compromise
The bolts do not I made them myself, but I bought them.
The red bolt and red titanium, but they are only painted.
The current weight of my Fury I'll know next week.


My lightened 260x7 mm solid discs are 2.4 kg each one :-)

wow, this is a very low weight.
make up a bit with the wheel studs and titanium bolts.
if not it will arrive to lower the weight as with your brake discs

as it regards the weight,
I can not make a comparison with iron bolts and nuts.
but more or less the titanium weighs 42% less of the iron.
I believe you can save up to 200 grams per wheel.
a saving in pounds then do not.
Shall we say: if you want to throw a bit of money for a few grams less and the right way ;-)

They are standard parts.
if not mistaken he had two different lengths.
splite also possible in two sizes.
an original ford 13.5mm.
and one for repair, in case the hubs are ruined by 14.3mm

I perfected my handbrake especially for the weight
Aircraft Aluminum from the skeleton.
POM black handle,
while everything else and titanium.
I am comforted to know that at least the original brake from which the copied weighs about 850gr.
For the rest it is just a waste of time and money.
But, 500 grams there ....
2 pounds there ...
and maybe I can achieve my goal.
The most light possible.
Meantime I took a bit "familiarity" with the TIG welding of aluminum.
I started with a chatch tank.
Follow the petrol tank of about 40 liters.
And I had the courage to build my pedals propia measure.
But still I am not satisfied with some profiles.
Currently too little time for that

Some fabulous work here.

And now some information regarding the weight of some pieces.
I think maybe someone may be interested,as simple information.
With the widespread use of titanium and aluminum, and where possible,
and also the use of a special metal (15CDV6) and is able to save a total of a little less than 11kg.
Using solid brake discs and rims Force Racing you should get a further weight saving of around 7kg.
Then a total of 18kg only for the front
This will be,as soon as I finish the construction of my Fury,
a processing job that will take place in winter

Thanks to all for the compliments.
They currently have equipment and machinery that make good quality with satisfactory results.
Plus, let's say the car's total weight that I will try to reach and quite ambitious:
Maximum 480 kg dry or less.
So I must try to save wherever possible.

Between not much will start repairing my bodywork,
I would ask a question to all those who have a Fury with Zetec Engine:
I own the front bonnet first model,
so no hump.
Do you need to change it for zetec?
the engine that was first inside (Crossflow) was there without changing it.
Measuring the height of the two motors,
I saw that they were very similar.

Just seen this Sami, mine has the bulge and the Zetec clears it fine but not sure what the original bonnet height was or if it would clear it, sorry.

Your bonnet is the same as mine fitted with a Crossflow and twin choke downdraught carb. Even with the oil filler cap cut down it’s very tight with a Crossflow.
I am going to fit a Duratec from a Fiesta ST150 and have bought a LeMans bonnet with bulge.

I have also bought a narrow DeDion with a view of going independent but using the original leading and trailing links and panard rod.

Yes, it's true,
with the crossflow it was very tight.
I was hoping to hear that with the zetec I did not need a bulge ...
I prefer without.
I had measured both engines,
from the oil pan to the valve cover.
they were both identical.
But probably the problem will be in the fact that the zetec has 2 camshafts,
which makes the valve cover wider.
