plans for next week are: I need 90 degree SS elbows (4x 37mm inner diameter and 2x 40mm), than I'll cut them in right shape and prepare intake manifold for welding, probably I'll make first (test) fiberglass velocity stack. obviously I won't be bored ;D

One half of intake manifold is welded:

There was a small step between intake flange and SS pipes, so i had to smooth it out (before/after):

Very Very good :D

Now you use Ventiled 238mm.
If you can get some "Carrier" (Calipper Suport) From a :
Clio Willi / Valver / R19 16v / Clio K4M 1.6 / Clio 1.9 D 2000 (Some Ones)
You can put 259mm , will the GTT / RT Calippers!
I Use 259mm ATE Power Discs, with the Stand RTi Calliper , and a CLio MK2 Ph1 1.9D.

I wanna see if this Energy Rock´s!!!

Till next summer 238mm discs will be OK (since I have 13" winter tyres), but next year maybe I'll mount biger discs Twisted Evil

This sunday there was autoslalom in Slovenia.. ..that was the first real test of my R5 with E6J (still with original 32 TLDR carb) and I'm pretty happy with the car. Times of both runs were pretty good for standard R5 with 80HP and 3 year old tyres. Till next autoslalom (29.10.) I hope the new carb will be on..

Here are pictures of my car:
