Re: [Quantum Owners] Xtreme Tyre Choice

[Chris Young]

I had


Toyo Proxes R1R 195/50 R15

When I had the V8 Xtreme, can't recall if they do them anymore.

I was happy with them,  they would aqua plain tho across a puddle, but just
a wet road they were prob better than less slick tyres .. ie as long as the
rubber can get to the tarmac.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Xtreme Vs other 7 type cars.

[Chris Young]

I don't have it now, but I bought the v8 xtreme off Chris F,   I converted
it to motorbike throttle bodies and megasquirt.  everyone was amazed as to
how little monocoque roll there was, even with the v8 trying to twist it
over.

I also built a new series 3 robin hood, which was also a monocoque, but my
gosh it was in comparison a pile of rubbish!  You couldn't firm up the
suspension for fear of the car cracking up!   I managed to loose it trying
to avoid a big pot hole coming off a round about and wrote it off.. But in
realty I was glad as a picked up an Xtreme next!.( a pinto one )

Great plus points for me,  slightly bigger car so my legs could fit! has a
boot, can use it all year round and with the hood on, (I'd use mine come
rains, shine, snow) - stainless - no rust to worry about.  A friend has a
tiger Avon - have to keep an eye on the chassis as well as just the
suspension bits.  There may be an argument that some of the others are
lighter and more nimble, but all in unless you are on a track who cares.

Enjoy your car, your mate is just jealous!
Remember that the exhaust changes side from a pinto to zetec.. you might
want to go to a duratec (not sure what there cost is like these days)  i
believe the manuals are up on the club website.

Have fun with it.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Adrian Flux...

[Chris Young]

I had a quick google as we are digressing !

It would seem that one insurance comp wont do it twice, but you can from 2
different. Seems to happen alot at start of new policy time.

https://www.admiral.com/magazine/guides/car-insurance/why-you-shouldnt-double-insurance-cover


 has

" Can you insure a car twice?
It's certainly not impossible, and it's not illegal, but that doesn't mean
that you should choose to do it.

In fact, doubling up on your insurance is not only potentially costly but
it could cause real problems should you ever need to make a claim.

Contribution clauses mean that both insurers would be in contact with each
other to see how much they each need to put towards your pay-out, and
there's no guarantee that they will agree. Such cases can delay your claim
significantly, causing you an entirely unnecessary and avoidable headache.

Making a claim from two insurers can push up the price of your renewal
significantly, as well as seeing you lose your no-claims bonus across both
providers. It's also worth remembering that you can't claim for a full
amount from multiple insurers, as that's fraud.

One claim is all you can make, so why make it complicated by involving
multiple different companies?  "

Re: [Quantum Owners] Adrian Flux...

[Chris Young]

I looked at cancelling my Q a while back after about 6months and was told I
would get nothing back. I had paid upfront. The monthly payments in my mind
have never been a kinda Pay as you go option, but something you have to pay
in full. Apart from the rudeness, doesn't sound like anything unexpected
going on

I don't think there is anything stopping you having two policies on  car,
except if you claim and they fight about who is going to pay etc and it
turns into a nightmare.

[Chris Young]

Re: [Quantum Owners] xtreme rear bushes?

[Chris Young]

Mark,

thanks so much, sorry I should have said I have the manual, but the codes
don't translate to anything off the shelf, so I am awaiting Mark to get
back to my email.

do you recall if your bushes look like my photo for the rear lowest nearest
the brake?

cheers Chris

[Quantum Owners] xtreme rear bushes?

[Chris Young]

Hi,

does anyone by chance know what bushes are used for the rear lowest bush on
the wishbones?  nearest the bottom of the brake drum?

I see from the manual that there are 2 in there, but only quantum part
numbers listed.

many thanks,

Chris

[Chris Young]

Hi all,

good to say hi to some of you yesterday!

shame the weather tainted it a bit, but I still had a really good drive up
and back from New Malden SW London. Got a bit wet for the first 30mins of
my way back, then again a bit on the M25 later in the eve after I left my
folks in Buckingham.

All good fun tho and at least it wasn't freezing like last week!

cheers, Chris

fingers crossed my wife will have shifted her cold and will be able to look
after our two young children so I can come up for fairly early on Monday in
the v8 xtreme.

I've even given the car a wash!

Have fun at goodwood,  get there really early, the queuing to get in starts
30mins + before the gates open.  Well, it did a few years ago when I took
my xtreme down there.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Xtreme wiper overheating?

[Chris Young]

Make sure nothing is restricting the wiper arms movement. I've managed to
have it hitting my new alarm box and snagging a wire before. Both added
extra load, which I thankfully noticed by the wipers slowing down, or on
the first occasion the arm popped off!  I have done a lot of mods under
there and you can't see what has moved once you have closed up.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Xtreame fuel pump upgrade?

[Chris Young]

I take it you have switched to having a low pressure pump feeding a swirl
pot, then out the swirl pot a high pressure pump feeding the fuel rail?

I run a Rover v8 so perhaps not a good comparison of pumps.

[Chris Young]

That would be great (part no) and thanks for the other info.

Yep hub is coming off and the local garage are going to swap the bearings
for me. Thinking about swapping the rover ball joints too whilst the hub is
off.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Xtreme Wheel Bearing Revisited

[Chris Young]

HI Ian,

I need to replace a front wheel bearing on my xtreme.

I've not taken it to bits yet, but any chance you could share the part
number for the skf bearing kits you bought?   are they left and right
handed?

Also you mention inner and outer bearings,  could you elaborate? I thought
there was just one in there, or does the kit cover them both.

thanks :)

Chris

I take it that is after speaking with Mark Burley?  I'd of thought he would
have had some, as he has shifted some Xtremes since taking over.

Re: [Quantum Owners] The ultimate fully electric 2+2

[Chris Young]

You are going to have enough battery power for heated seats too? I can see
clearing the windscreen an essential, but I would have thought the heating
in the seats would use a fair bit of juice.

I guess if you have them in you don't have to use them if you do find them
too much of a drain. Guess it depends on the range you are trying to get.

Sorry no help for what seat to get!

Re: [Quantum Owners] Progress pics of my Xtreme (suggestions welcomed)

looking good.

I got these ones for the rear

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/12v-LED-Hamburger-rear-light-lamp-Trailer-Kit-Car-Van-/230660788873
?

you might find cheaper. and yes get them for a lorry or bus, far far
cheaper than kit car web shops unless you want something more fancy of
course.

(check if they come with the rear bowl, the sizes are slightly different)

Re: [Quantum Owners] help with parts and contact

[Chris Young]

fraid I have not got to replacing those parts (yet I am sure!)

Mark has put this on the front page of http://www.quantumcars.eu/

Quantum cars operates a answerphone based service where we ask customers to
leave a message then we will get back to them. For the quickest response
please send us a email at i...@quantumcars.eu and we can deal with you as
soon as possible.

have you tried dropping him an email?

(I know not really helpful but at lease he has said something about how he
can run the business)

Re: [Quantum Owners] Xtreme Fuse?

[Chris Young]

could be the low pressure pump  vs high pressure pump?

a while back my fuse blew due to the fuel pump packing up, it was shared
with the ignition etc.. (older car than yours and the fuse box v different)

just a thought.

[Quantum Owners] current state of the v8 xtreme :) :) :)

[Chris Young]

http://www.locostbuilders.co.uk/viewthread.php?tid=197999#bottom

bottom of the page if it doesn't take you straight there.

My conversion from the holley carb to bike TBs and megasquirt seem to have
been successful.

made the 170 mile journey up to http://baileyperformance.co.uk/

where Dale Rolling roaded it to get the megsquirt map sorted.

made about an extra 10hp and about 10 more lb/ft torque nice flat delivery,
but  far far smoother than the holley carb, way more fuel efficient and the
intake makes a million times better noise :-)

I do seem to have some sort of electrical gremlin yet to sort out but very
very pleased. (my fault somewhere !)

If you need a rolling road or any megasquirt work doing I can thoroughly
recommend Dale.  His knowledge of electronics surpasses his knowledge of
megasquirt nevermind the rest of it.  really nice bloke too.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Tie bar bushes

[Chris Young]

have you tried a small local auto factor type shop?

the one near me, gets out a big book, finds the part and orders it from the
manufacturer probably.. no doubt a copy part, rather than original but
still.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Insurance write off

[Chris Young]

let us know how you get on...   interesting they came and collected it,
with my RH, they inspected it on my drive. remember you don't have to go
with whoever they say is the repairer, you can say you want quantum to do
it as long as their quote is good.  you may even be able to argue you just
need parts and you can fix it yourself to keep the cost down to stop them
making it a write off.

or if it is safe, just don't make a claim as such.


it is a palava what ever.

good luck.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Insurance write off

[Chris Young]

sorry to hear about the off  and glad you are ok and no one else got hurt
(I hope!)

I seem to remember Ian on hear getting uh hum rear ended  in is xtreme -
kermit,  he sent it down to devon and it got fixed up  if I remember
rightly...  I would agree depends on if the damage has gone into the
monocoque or just in the rear suspension etc.

As far I as I know Mark is still running Quantum @  http://quantumcars.eu/

you might have to get your car inspected by vosa once you have fixed it...
I remember buying back my robin hood, after I wrapped it's monoquoque into
a lamppost.. It was a cat  something write off, pretty certain financial
only.. I took the bits I wanted and managed to sell the lot on to some
crazy people who were going to try and straighten the monoquoque out use it
on track if not on the road again if they could get it passed. Still ended
up making more money by buying it back.


so in short If the cat is at a level where you can buy it back and you are
happy that you can fix it, I would say buy it back. As long as it get's
signed off if it needs an insepection, I can't see how it is any different
to any other car.  You could always call up a different insurance company
and say you are thinking of buying a car that was a cat x write off that is
back on the road and does it affect the premium?

I know how you feel re the I built it and I don't want to throw it away
 good luck,  shout if you would like to run anything else passed us.

all the best, Chris

Re: [Quantum Owners] adding fuel out let to bottom of Xtreme tank

[Chris Young]

thanks Nigel,   friad Curborough at the moment would just be a dream!  the
car is off the road and I couldn't really justify the time away from home
due to my young kids etc.

thus while I can't really be driving the car, it is having project time
instead in the eves.

If you do have a pic or two, that could be really helpful, It sounds like
what I was thinking of having done, just the chap who I would ask to weld
it for me reckoned it might buckle the tank when I discussed it before.)


(really with the v8, I could do with a bigger tank, period! I am planning
to be on the skcc euro trip next may but even when I am running on the bike
TBs and efi I might be running out before a petrol station!)

Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Extreme fuel pump

have you got the xtreme manual ? it contains the factory supplied wiring
diagram. (although I don't recall a relay as it is written for carb.)

[Quantum Owners] adding fuel out let to bottom of Xtreme tank

[Chris Young]

to not clog up the other thread.


Nigel - did you weld the outlet onto the bottom of your tank? can I guess
you are running without a swirl pot and just taking the feed straight from
the tank?   I have asked someone about adding a sort of swirl pot to the
bottom of the tank, ie just a litre size box on one side, but he was wary
of the tank buckling. Interested to hear your findings.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Extreme fuel pump

[Chris Young]

you've just gotta take the rear grp section off.. It isn't that hard as
long as you can undo the wiring easily.  on both of mine I've had there are
two bolts in the boot and then two at the bottom of the wheel arches. then
the tub will lift off.. (frustratinlgly it will break any sealing done
round the top by the roll bar.)

my fuel pumps have been mounted behind the pass seat or opposite on the
boot.

hope this helps somehow even tho it is frustrating news!

Re: [Quantum Owners] Xtreme scuttle / dash moulding

[Chris Young]

I just tilt the scuttle up to get access rather than remove.

on my red extreme the scuttle was held down in 3 places. engine bay middle
and down each side.

on the v8 there are 2 more on the inside of the car,just in toward the foot
wells, but I had them removed as I was lifting the dash so much! no rattles.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Extreme

[Chris Young]

from my general understanding and asking a mate

'165-170 with standard head and sports exhaust and MTB throttle bodies or
carbs. Maybe a bit more with head porting matching to manifold'

I reckon that is a bit hight about 150 - 160 is more reasonable for
standard cam

all at the flywheel..

another good place to look:

Re: [Quantum Owners] Extreme

[Chris Young]

The Xtreme is a great car, I'm on my second, having had a 2l pinto and now
the v8 one.

friad I don't know yours, but someone may come along.

who did you buy it off? did they have no history to pass on.. does the log
book have previous owners names, back to the 1st, that might help some of
the more knowledgeable people on here! (as in they may know the person)

one thing to bear in mind, is that it is so easy to tweak our cars, that
owners on the way may have changed something from when it was built, so you
may just have to go on a fact finding mission. All part of the fun.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Quantum Xtreme

[Chris Young]

have a search of this group, it was only discussed within the last couple
of weeks. 4.5 to 5k I would say. I sold my 2l pinto for 5k 2yrs ago, 2000,
but a bit more tuned and a new 400quid silencer,  and it was up for sale
with a  bit more work done to the engine for 5.5k, don't know if they got
it or not.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Xtreme exhaust silencer

[Chris Young]

It was a couple of years ago - but I was well impressed, esp has to how
they curved the pipe to bring up the level of the exhaust..

Re: [Quantum Owners] Xtreme exhaust silencer

[Chris Young]

don't know where you are, but I went to powerspeed in ashford (kent) when
my quantum one failed. I went for something much bigger and they also
raised the height of it, so the exhaust wasn't lower than the underside of
the car - (I kept hitting it on speed bumps etc)

I am sure it cost 400notes +

Re: [Quantum Owners] Xtreme

miles on the clock)  the guy who bought it was trying to sell it on for
similar, not sure if it sold or not.

scroll down towards the bottom and you will see how my 2.0l pinto powered
xtreme looked. I don't recall having overheating issues with it at all.

as long as the thermostat is opening i would have thought the standard Q
setup should be fine.

ah now timing that could be a very good point.  I changed the cam to a fr30
and went round to atspeed for a rr session. he adjusted the weights in the
standard dizzy to adjust the timing curve. I am sure he mentioned something
like 14degrees out. It wasn't the idle timeing that was the problem but the
under load timing that changes as the dizzy spins up.

I was running up to 100c but back down to something sensible post
adjustment.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Xtreme Clutch Cable

[Chris Young]

good news, I was once lucky too, I did a track day, went to my sister's
after, went to leave at 11pm in the freezing (-4) cold and snap it went..
swapped it there and then, but decided to drive home in the morning.. crazy
thing was my brother in law was in shorts and t-shirt and I was in 5 layers!

(I digress!)

Re: [Quantum Owners] Xtreme Clutch Cable

[Chris Young]

Mine was def sierra - however there are several different sierra ones. - i
bought the wrong one first, then ended up taking what I had to the shop to
get the right length and end fixings.

the quadrants go across a lot of cars , sierra and mondeo, transit etc.. I
swapped my quadrant to make the pedal work differently.

i've got record of me buying a:

Sierra & Sapphire 1.6 1.6i 1.8 2.0 2.0i SOHC 03/87-01/93 Clutch Cable
QCC1368

but I couldn't promise that is what i ended up using.

[Quantum Owners] Re: removing the v8 from the Xtreme

[Chris Young]

I managed to get it out!

https://plus.google.com/116862370669776250647/posts/b1kdgPutQZo


Chris F - I could see no way to remove the remote in situ, (if you did you
must be a magician!) so I ended up cutting the rubber on the rear gearbox
mount, which was looking a bit ropey anyway, I then levered the box over
the remaining rubber lip, undid the bellhousing bolts, they are nice too, 2
of which you can't get a socket over!, then gearbox back down the tunnel,
separate the 2 and just get the engine out.

getting it back in will be fun ! but that is a while off yet.  And
definiatly not something I will be doing in the dark by myself!

Re: [Quantum Owners] Xtreme Balljoint?

ah and there was me going on about the one at the end of the track rod...
which you will probably need to correct me as I should be calling that the
track rod end rather than a ball joint :)

Re: [Quantum Owners] Xtreme Balljoint?

[Chris Young]

hey Ian,

I've just had a look through the manual - and It doesn't seem to mention
them!

What I did for mine was to take the ball joint to my local shop - they had
a look and ordered something in.. I never did get a part number tho!

remember they might be right and left handed, if they have the triangular
tabs.

cheers
Chris

Re: [Quantum Owners] Club Insurance

[Chris Young]

I've been with AF since my robin hood days,

I've always found that any club will do, the RH owners club. the
tigerowners club, skcc or here.. anything gets you a 10% discount and I
found they offered nothing further special for paid up club members.(to
which I'm not (tut tut to me!)

as a side note, I have gone back to AF over and over as I think it is a
well rounded package and I have used the accident recovery (crashed the RH)
and broken down a few times in the Qs and never had a problem.. they
understand - just send a flat bed and take me home!

Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: Xtreme in my workshop!

[Chris Young]

mine has a rover v8.. I think the only one. Chris F has the credit for
getting it built.. I have just tarted it up and am going to turn it to some
sort of EFI with motorbike throttle bodies (when family life permits!)

I too found the clutch pedal a bit bonkers. Up there is a sierra pedal box
essentially, so relies on the sierra yellow curved bit. I changed mine to a
mondeo one I think which has a larger radius, thus more cable move for less
pedal movement.

Mark at quantaum cars does still promote the v8 option, but I am not sure
which one and or how many plans he has.. the monoque had to get modified to
take the v8, well really the bell housing and lt77 gear box.

If i hadn't of seen the v8 one up for grabs I was going to try and use the
type 9 with an adaptor bell housing to rv8.. but never got that far. well I
say that, I did buy a cheap rubbish rv8 and did put it all together and
have a trial fit to see what would go and there I saw that the front cross
members would need modifying or the tunnel etc.

Re: [Quantum Owners] Xtreme in my workshop!

[Chris Young]

that is why after um breaking in a similar fasion my robin hood that I
built, I snapped up a pinto powered Xtreme - have now sold that and took a
blind gamble on the v8 Xtreme..

awesome car, not too small relative to other 7esqs... and comfortable for
hours of driving too.

I really like them as you may have guessed!

Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: what rubber for xtreme

[Chris Young]

thanks for the replies chaps - interesting to read about your experiences...

anyone know how many xtreme owners their are?  (and how many are on here!)

I know they are more pricey, but I am tempted by the AVON C500 - the
caterham designed job.. the only thing is that the profile is 195/45 rather
than /50 - which will mean more revs to do the same speed - not sure if i
want that in the v8 !

cheers, Chris

[Quantum Owners] what rubber for xtreme

[Chris Young]

hi fellow xtreme owners.

what tyres are you running?

mine are up for renewal and with the v8 and all, I am looking for the
grippiest, but as i use the car a lot, in the rain too, I don't want
anything too slick.. so i think 888s are out.

my days of doing 6k miles a year are gone for a while as i did in the pinto
xtreme as child number 2 has recently arrived so I am not worried out how
long the tyre will last, would rather enjoy the times I do get out to the
max :)

If you could let me know what you run with past and present and what you
reckon, that would be great. Also if you run with anything wider at the
back than 195mm?

I currently have yokohama  A520 195/50/R15

cheers all

Chris

Re: [Quantum Owners] Quantum ever let you down?

[Chris Young]

unlucky!

in the v8 xtreme, having thought I had things on track and had started to
use it, went to start it in the work carpark and ping the accelerator cable
snapped.. lucky for me this time it happened when i was stationary... it
happened in the last Q as i was accelerating hard with a beema right up my
   thankfully they backed off that time and I managed to fix it at the
side of the road.  this one needed two cables to get it sorted, the
first attempt fell to bits - brand new too!

glad it was an easy fix.
