Yeah I'm going to tried and tested ones front and rears and if that doesn't work then I will put on a parachute as well.

Okay then I think I will stick with the kit then.

Yeah I'm going to buy a front brake kit off ebay which has the stubs and hubs and discs and this kit would have come off a racing shifter kart, The biggest brakes I saw was 4 piston but I want to use the 6 piston because they are more power. Also I am looking for conventional floating, circular...

Yeah, I'm putting one hydraulic on the back and two on each side at the front. ---------- Post added at 07:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:07 PM ---------- The chassis doesn't have front brakes but upgraded stubs and hubs should do the trick

I think the fronts are 10s

I completely understand and I am going to get an answer from my school. Thanks anyway for getting me the specs. We are being given welder from STEM and hopefully a motorbike engineer. Anyway we talked to the welder and we think that we should put the engine next to the driver with the driver's...

Pictures This is the go kart and what I had in mind on sketchup. The lines indicate the engine mounts the engine will have. Hope this helps.

Alright can anyone help me identify the go kart chassis I have which has bars on both sides at the back of the go kart.

Could anyone help me identify a go kart chassis because it has a double bars on both sides at the back and I have looked around and I found its code and it is LRGC2428 (what is its value etc) and I have decided to put the car engine in a kart for later on because my school decided to back out of...

Wow I really must have struck a nerve to have grown men have an argument with a teenager about go karts also you must feel really manly picking on a teenager about an idea about a go kart.

You do realise I couldn't care less about any of your opinions now because I have found an actual engineer, I stress actual engineer who went to university to become an engineer who has a excellent understanding of physics. I wouldn't be offended if you deleted this thread because I don't need...

FYI a Rotary engine expert just got back to me about the project told me that this is actually possible. This guy is an actual engineer and the only worry he said he had was stopping and we have that more than covered. He also said that your calculations were not relevant to the drive train of...

A turbo BMW 328i making 500hp at 30 psi of boost?

I understand where you are coming from but the thing is rarely no one has done this, no one has posted any methods of how to do this and I want to try first hand if it is possible or not because that is just what kind of person I am. I have an engineers helping me, the money is there and right...

Just for reference the rx8 engine is 60 lbs heavier than the r1 engine and the only reason why it couldn't really reach 200 was because of its tyres and we have that covered and we more than make up the weight. I go to the gym so I have built up muscle so I am 60 kg so then the go kart should be...

This might help with the physics, a mazda rx8 tops out at a 150 mph and then another thing is that bhp per tonne on the go kart is more than 1000 bhp per tonne another thing is that the mazda tops out at 150mph with more than 1100 kg more on board than this go kart. As for the iq stuff my school...

What I meant to say is that I have a very complex understanding of the internal combustion engine and I can perform modifications like installing mods up to the point where they need to be welded so what I meant was that I know how a turbo works and how to install it right up to the fabrication...

I know how to service a car, how to rebuild an engine and how to turbo and modify a car but I have no welding experience as health and safety states that i am not allowed to use it it but i have seen my cousin and brother weld on their cars. I am not leaving it to chance so i am getting the very...

I have been on my profile and I have answered the 5 things it has asked me to i don't know where to find the other stuff where I can write information. ---------- Post added at 08:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:12 AM ---------- In England I can max the go kart on a disused run way...

This go kart, if all goes to plan should be able to hit more than 200 mph and yes I am kinda crazy when it comes to going fast in a straight line :) ---------- Post added at 07:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:04 PM ---------- I have been tested and I have an IQ number of 137. However...
