Finally finished R1 Indy

I've just put the finishing touches on my Indy, still got a gear knob being turned up at the moment but other than that the car is as it will stand until the turbo conversion.

Heres some pics, let me know what you think.

Cheers
Joe

Awful!! Hideous!!

Only kidding, top job

I think you'll find the fog light is way too low for SVA though.

That looks great bud! Very nice finish.

Very curious about the airbox. Is there any chance you have pictures of the way that you cut out the carb body holes and turned them over? If not, is there any chance the next time you take it off that you could take a picture of the underside!? I've been trying for ages to find a piccie of a modified inverted box.

Does it run much quieter? Any big changes in jetting required?

Thanks,

Chris.

Thanks for your comments.

As for the pressure in the tyre its as they came out of the box?!? I'll check though as I hadnt noticed that before.

The foglight I think may need adjusting up a little as its only just in the 250mm range. I'll make a little bracket up this evening.

I modified the airbox by cutting out a rectangular section and glued it back into place. I'll get some pics next time its off for you.

Cheers
Joe

They were supplied by MK but I've seen them for sale from other people too, like SVC.
