Hey Guys, Building my first Westfield (SEiW)


Recommended Posts

That's a great part built kit, especially with the carbon on it. Good luck finshing it off to your own spec.

Welcome

Good luck and enjoy

Welcome! Will follow this on both forums ;) (here and ClioSport).

The chassis is 1992. I'm going to need loads of IVA advice because ideally I'd like to get it on a new reg!

 

 

Won't be easy with YB, T5 and I assume sierra diff as that will be 3 reconditioned parts resulting in a Q plate.

 

Also make sure you get as many receipts as possible from the original builder as you will need them for IVA application when the time comes.

Nothing wrong with a Q plate, just think, no emmisions to worry about.

Floor bracing looks same as Sport2000S

Top wishbones look to be on wrong way round and the steering arms look to angle too far forward

Welcome to the club bud :yes:

Your car is the same as mine though you seem to have a few chassis mods. Are you sure your diff is brand new as that variation is an escort diff stuck into a Westfield ally casting. Be careful how much power you put through the drive shafts as they are known to twist like candy canes.

Welcome from a new newbie.

 

Great start to get connected with your Westy.  Enjoy ;)

Ill get a better picture of the front tomorrow. If you could confirm that would be greatly appreciated. :)

I'm sure we will be able to confirm.  An unbelievably common build error.  Good spot. :)
