I can't really see a problem with it as the flange is hot forged and hasn't been hardened.

I just need an excuse to clean my car. So make it a daytime thing on a weekend before the 24th?

I was expecting a Damascus steel steering wheel

I've been planning a throttle body fuel injection system for the starlet. Wanting to do efi only and let the distributor deal with all the ignition details Does anyone know if the microsquirt will be happy to just take the tacho signal from the ignition system to tell it how fast the engine is going, instead of having to install a crank position sensor? A microsquirt would be ideal due to cheapness, not being overpowered and ease of waterproofing. Looks like I will be able to route it through the hole up under the passenger's side guard (has a splash guard to protect the wiring inside there/stop shit getting in there and rusting the car out) an bolt it straight on behind the radiator overflow bottle without having to do anything to the body of the car. I'm hoping to have a fairly minimal system that looks like a standard carburetor at a glance/someone will actually have to look under the air cleaner to actually see that something is up. Planning on using the bottom flange of a carburetor with the two throttle butterflies linked together, with a TPS. Middle section will be replaced with a cast/machined injector housing (one injector per butterfly) and high pressure fuel circuit it will be made of three pieces to aid in manufacturing. Patterns will be 3D printed and then it will be sand cast. Top part of carburetor will remain, but will be bored out/choke valve removed. Fuel will be fed from original mechanical fuel pump to the original inlet, the float valve will control the fuel level around the electric boost pump. The boost pump will provide high pressure to the rail. There will be a regulator and the fuel will be recirculated through the small high pressure circuit. I may have to machine some cooling fins onto the system in order to reduce the risk of the fuel temperature getting too high. What I am looking for is a small fuel pump which will be able to provide the pressure required by the injectors. I am also looking for two injectors, I reckon that two 4A-GE injectors will do the job. I have considered ordering some injectors from aliexpress but I have heard bad stories. Also looking for a wide band O2 sensor, MAP sensor and an intake air temp sensor. Here's a shitty quick sketch: Reasons for doing this are pretty much just because I want to apply the shit I've been learning at uni and also just because I don't really like carburetors that much. I just want something that will keep itself in tune once it is set up.

That sure is an interesting looking honda civic

'The hell you been smokin?

I'd say the stamping deforms the grains enough that the acid will be able to etch more easily around those boundaries than the boundaries of unaffected grains

Not entirely relevant but the support bar on starlets is removable. Can't really see it being an issue for you.

Do the condensor at the same time you do the points

Was thinking this exact thing today

Hmmmmm, to come to this or go on motosoc cruise

Not entirely related, but we had a coin go straight through the plastic tub on our washing machine. Machine place wanted $400 to fix it so my dad just glued the piece back in with epoxy and a rag. Worked fine until the machine was retired.

I just do 1,2,3,5 then rotate 360 degrees and do 4,6,7,8.

I have supercats and on a dry day I run out of strength to turn the steering wheel before they let go. /Ling post /Buy a light, slow car with no power steering

Vice grips and pull it out and replace with new one?

Pub runs are great. We should do a random rural pub run every month. //Wolf Creek Edit: I won't even be in the South Island during this meet. Ignore my request.

Not tall enough to stop rocks beating my floorpan in though...

So new sticker says 22nd of Oct

Last wof said 22nd as expiry but was actually 24th.if you go two weeks early they shove the two weeks on so it would have the same expiry date

Passed WoF. Looks like they entered the date wrong for previous WoF, could have gotten an extra two days out of it... EDIT: Hmm, looking at my previous WoF sheets my front brakes have lost a lot of power in the last two years. Used to be up at 200%. Might look into new pads or something at some point.

I was reading the manual the other day, it reckons if you wire the coil up backwards you will get up to a 60% reduction in spark efficiency? (Won't fuck the coil though)

Was good, sorry I was all anti-social/stole heaps of food and whatnot.

Why do you have a light in your guard?

You can get black silicone beauties.
