Storvite Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 (edited) Westfield SEight 5.1 For sale I am reluctantly selling a very special Seight, this is a very much a one-off car with incredible performance, and numerous special components. I genuinely have far too many cars and I need to reduce the collection to gain some space back!

Electronic ignition DTA Converted to dry sump in 2010 - 3 stage John Eales dry sump with oil tank in engine bay/part passenger well, remote filter at front of engine. Aeroquip fittings throughout. Aluminium oil catch tank with breathers to both rocker covers Bespoke stainless steel exhaust. Headers in 42mm, 4 into 1 each side (55mm) then 2 into 1 with two silencers neatly tucked under centre tunnel. Designed to meet track sound test limits. Single large centre exit avoids side exhausts. Transmission 5 speed Rover R380 gearbox, (recently overhauled selector/grub screw mechanism) Race Line supplied Ford Sierra 7” diff with ZF LSD 3.38 ratio Steering / Suspension/Brakes Specifications for suspension and set-up development by head of Audi Chassis Dynamics (UK), while builder was testing at Nordschleife Nitron dampers, matched to springs Image 3 piece billet 15x7” wheels (1950’s/60’s Ferrari style) Nankang NS-2R 205/50/15 fitted at 12,500 miles Steering Rack - quick rack 2.1 turns lock to lock with stops BG quick release hub for 300mm steering wheel 4 pot front calipers with drilled / vented discs. Spare discs Sierra rear calipers with drilled / vented discs Instrumentation Stack ST8130 Digidash Plus with full parameter recording and lap timing DTA ECU providing traction control (on/off) and wet or dry; launch control Four wheel sensors for above. ECU accessed via DTA windows 10 software; RS232 interface and ‘dyno box’ to control during engine run. DTA ECU timing settings slightly changed from original to ensure running on 95Ron petrol - can easily be adjusted by laptop - I have Linx1010 set up to access ECU via RS232 and all connecting cables and intermediate rare dyno box - can be included in the deal. Builder believes change was unnecessary and 350BHP available. Has traction and launch control with the ecu. This car is seriously quick. But it’s super smooth so can be driven very calmly and is very comfortable for long distance touring. If you press the loud pedal it gains speed very quickly, pulls very strongly and will embarrass just about anything you are likely to come up against. The engine does rev very freely, it is definitely not a dull V8 by any means. The car will be supplied with 12 months MOT, I’m confident that this is one of the best built Seights out there and got to be one of the quickest Westfields on the road!

My V8 has over 100bhp less than this and feels like a rocketship, this engine is on another planet and made by a very respectable builder.....Just an amazing car for the money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
