  7. So progress haven't had much time to work on the beast with the house renos taking my time but ive taken a break and with some fine weather tackled some jobs. so put new rollcage padding in and some new 6 point harness put in a 1.5 and a 1kg extinguisher in the car to meet requirements and when i got the dcoe 45 off Blizzo he had washed the filter in petrol K&Ns don't like this and they shrink and go hard as you can see a bit of a difference fitting it is a challenge as you can see its a wee bit tight for room did a bunch of little bits and pieces like fix the washer jets so they spray in a useful place and clean the connector to the wiper motor so they would work properly , also sealed up a few firewall holes, greased the front caliper sliders , replaced the 2 mismatched ht leads, replaced a dodgy hose clamp and fitted a factory expansion bottle that i got from pick a part to replace the random one that was just sitting loose

  13. talk to the mount shop or autolign they should be able to sus something id say
  14. seems as the other kit you need to make it is no longer available
  15. Has anyone had any experience with doing launch control and rev limiter diy on a carbed car ? see you can buy them at 2-300$$. Surely something can be done with an arduino keen to put a rev limiter on my rally car for when I get a bit too rev happy and avoid any damage when getting airborne. Saw someone on here had done it with a mx5 using ecu inputs ect
  16. might want to do some digging husky used them quite a bit in the rideons and judging by when you spun it it didnt turn did you try it in any other gears ?
  17. so not much has happened just tackling some of the small jobs and fixing some shitty wiring Ever since I got the car it seemed to take forever to warm up but the fans would come on since my sender was in the top hose and the fan switch wasn't I figured the thermostat may be stuck shut and it was when I tested it so , New thermostat , radiator cap and gasket went on. I also tidied up some wiring as the terratrip had a 15 A glass fuse in it and had those shitty push in holders I hate as they can cause bad connections so put in 2x new blade fuse holders and the correctly rated fuses. wired it up some dash switches to power the terratrip and intercom and the intercom seems to work but I need to buy some headsets to test it. Bled up the cooling system and sits rock solid at 180-190 deg F with the new thermostat and doesn't take long to warm up from cold.
  18. most led setups run on 6v just fine
  19. have you checked all the power feeds and switches ect or tried powering directly to make sure its getting all the juice it needs
  20. I would hope for more of a bush style alaskan mill with a massive chainsaw, 2 stroke or go home
  21. Got my linkage and fitted it had a few issues and took quite a bit of fiddling to get it right including grinding the throttle wheel tab to get the idle down and shortening the return spring ect but in the end it all worked out just wayy more of a faf round than i thaught . Went to pick a part today and grabbed a newer coil that had a bracket as the old one was cable tied to be held in place in clearly the wrong bracket owell. for some reason none of my video links are working ill try to fix them later but it idles ect now https://youtu.be/vXEz4ZKxa8I https://youtu.be/KAodGSoZxGE
  22. There we go so in an effort to try keep some oil in the engine and not over my driveway / new shiny bits I chucked a new cam cover gasket in I also fitted some side stone protection made from some industrial belt material i have had that was for my other car its finally feeling like im getting towards the end now the list is getting smaller and smaller ive ordered my linkage so hopefully ill be able to report back after a test run this week
