240bhp 535kg 2.1 Duratec. Very fast road legal track car. DEPOSIT TAKEN.

[TAFKARM]

The time has come to sell Westfield, I’ve owned the car for over 10 years, with plenty of blood (usually knuckes, occasionally fingers), sweat, tears (usually my wife, although the Westfield is a longer relationship) and cash being put into the car over the years. 
 

The car started in cake spec, then as I started to get the track day bug, it developed into a seriously fast piece of kit. 
 

Which brings me to why I’m selling - I’ve discovered the joys of circuit racing and with limited time, space and a young baby something has to give. I’d really like it to go to someone who’s going to send it…and send it hard. 
 

Registered 2001 for those looking to export to Europe / elsewhere. 
 

I’ve only done 4 or 5 track days since the engine was built. 
 

Here’s the spec of this beast

 

Bodywork

Chrome yellow ZK bodywork

Flared side panels

V8 bonnet

The bodywork is all designed to come off easily for access - the entire back end it removable for access to diff, fuel tank etc etc

Rear tub is new

Front cycle wings are new

Scuttle is quick release

 

Electrics

Fully rewired in motorsport spec by Spark Developments

New DTA S40 pro ECU to run the beast of an engine…

New (ie this week) jack webb MSUK approved lithium ion battery

 

Engine

Professionally built by AP Racing Engines

Oversized to 2.1

Forged Pistons

Forged Rods

Uprated bearings and rod bolts

Uprated valve springs

Cam designed to AP spec - it’s a race cam, not a cake cam

48mm Jenveys throttle bodies (It sounds ace)

Raceline dry sump - you will have no worries about track day oil pressures with this car. 
Laminova water to oil oil cooler, I prefer these, they are expensive but bring the oil up to temp much quicker and hold it there. 
Big Alloy radiator from cooled to keep it all cool

I rev it to 8000. It’s does 240bhp and will do more if you want to rev it higher, it should do 8500+ .

Stripped, checked and given a clean bill of health by Ash Mason after 5 trackdays and not driven in anger since.

The exhaust! How could I forget that work of art. Bespoke CSK race exhaust, full stainless system, bonnet exit and the largest can I could fit. Its a work of art and cost over £2k.

 

Drivetrain

Heavy duty type 9 built by first motion in Hatfield, with appropriate trackday ratios. I don’t use 5th tbh, 4th goes to just over 120 and as you see in the videos it  pulls hard in every gear. 
 

Ratios:

2.83

1.81

1.26

1.0

0.82

 

Diff is a 3J NXG plated LSD with appropriate ramp angle and preload for a light car - it’s 535kg by the way. This was installed with the new engine, by PlaysKool motorsport.  I much prefer this diff over an ATB, it’s progressive, predictable and still works if a rear wheel is in the air.

 

Suspension set up by Clear Motorsport

 

Brakes are CAT Racing 4 pots with brand new hawk pads that I haven’t even bedded in yet. Rears are the usual Sierra, with Ferodo DS Uno pads. 

 

Uprated larger and rare AP Racing brake master cylinder

“Interior”

GRP seats

Carbon fibre tunnel 

Carbon fibre bulkhead 

Momo 270mm steering wheel (lovely)

Quick release column

Carbon fibre dash

GRP Aeroscreen

Full “Caged” roll cage, installed at their factory in Frome

 

Wheels and tyres

13 inch CXRs, 185 front, 205 rear, R888R all round

spare set of 13 inch mini lite reps with race wets for when it’s wet…obviously

 

Anything else I’ve missed

New fuel tank, new fuel pump, new fuel lines, I’m sure there is more I’ve forgotten which I’ll add as it comes to me. 
 

Summary

This isn’t really a car for the cake tourers. Sure it will do that (and has) but Ive found it way too fast for the peaks. It’s an absolute weapon on a track and I’m sure it would be successful in the speed series if that was your bag. The money had been spent on the bits that matter - with pretty much one aim in mind… FUN. 

 

It’s fully road legal, although I removed the lights for track use - they are back on now, and I’ll be MOTing it shortly. 

 

Ill add pics and as soon as I can, but in the meantime here she is doing what she does best….staying in front of the track day gang.

 

 

Oh yeah the price… to WSCC it’s £14,750. It’ll be up for more elsewhere but I’d like an easy sale tbh!

 

BJ single axle trailer which is perfect Westfield size will also be available. 
 

@Simon Waterfall Syman84 Have I missed anything? 😄

Very nice, the first year of registration? It would be useful to know for export outside uk

It’s on a Q plate, first registered 2000 (I think! I’ll double check)

 

ETA: It’s 2001
