You don't "need" one, but it can be handy for setting up, could be the difference between melting somthing and not.

and besides for the price of a bung and plug off ebay its rude not to!!

your obviously abandoning all aspects of a daily driver LOL!

so i'd say go with the difuser.

also a nut will do for a lambda bung hole, an M18 i think, but a google will confirm that.

errr yeah, put too much money into this one to use it everyday.

im sort of thinking diffuser is the way to go, just want something to make the back end look a bit mean!

i will go with the bung rather than the nut, but yeah that add says its the same thread as a spark plug.

its was a design i though, but all the lightweighting i have done has been circles wanted to keep the theme going.

and stu wright has the triangles on his car, dont want to copy him. what with the cars being fairly simular anyway.

he si the guy with the blue turbo mini on 7x10" force rims

dont mind people using the idea, i dint come up with it, just i want something really individual on the car.

i also dont know what to do about the exhaust if i was having a diffuser. i have only seen a close up of one with a center exit exhaust. i may chuck on my rear subframe and exhaust and see what i can come up with.



BBB

to make the trolly i went to the local scrap yard and got a load of steel box section, id say its about 25mm square, then i welded a rectangle roughly the same size as the floor plan.

i then got some casters from a mate and made some legs so it was about the right height to work on, welded these on and then just placed the car on it, its not attached in anyway, does move about a bit so i spose you could bolt it on or something.
