The APS that came with me K24 is a box that sits in the engine bay being feed from a normal cable pedal. Means you can put the box anywhere and just get a cable to suit

Friend had this happen to a fresh built SR he had. Turned out the exhaust cam was off by a tooth so cyl press was building for to long until the valves opened.

might not be the issue having two banks but is easy to check

Mustang week at work this week 

2x 1967's and 1 1969 

Eleanor 

Seen a lot of 70’s and 80’s pickups with serious suspension setups. Just about every small town has a 4wd workshop. All with proper gas shocks and tube shock mounts. Most are 35-40”s

unfortunately I’ve been to on the go to get decent photos but hopefully get some free time to get some proper ones soon

Kaeng Sian - Kanchanaburi 

tidy little 4dr esky

Happy as! Stripped the diffs and epoxisprayed them.

had the bottom U bolt plates acid dipped them epoxi sprayed them too.

installed all the new suspension, greaseable shackles and bolts, adjustable drop steering arm and torque arm

just need bump stops, and steering rod rack ends.

and get some sanding wheels for the drill to take out the build up in the shackle mount tubes 

thinking with the Honda engine exhaust being on the drivers side I might as well do the fuel and break lines now and swap them to the other side

I’m running a small alloy tray witch weighs nothing and at most will have a gearbox or engine on it. That the arms always been bent and never worked so I’ll just delete it if I can

Proportion valve requirement on a old Ute or can I delete it?

cheers

Why not paint it a pearlescent white, that way all your American muscle cars will be red, white and blue. 

I concur 

Was talking to my painter mate about the new Mazda reds.

he said the water base is pretty much pink metallic and the clear then has a tint to give it the vibrance.

definitly a cool colour!

I done the concrete myself, im on swampy ground so has 5x 3.6m piles concreted in under the center area with a 200mm thickening and 200 thick ring beam footing around the edge of the pad, was almost 4 cube of concrete which worked out about $900, hoist is a motorex base model $2100 delivered, 

So far been mint just keep it lubed well with spray grease, made a weather cover for the hydraulic pack and is all good 

Nice work! Cheers

Hoist question, I’m wanting to put one at mine but would need to be outdoor on slab like yours.

what did it cost you? You get a company to do all of it and sign it off?

dose the hoist need a cover or is it fine outside?

cheers

Hopefully pick this up this week or next.

spray it 2K black like everything else and done.

only thing stopping me now from bolting everything together now is rust cuts in the cab

had to google k24 engine rotation..   nice work. 

Cheers! Guys on an off-road forum said there was a guy in Invercargill that put a b18 into a MU, went to all the effort only to find he had 5 rev gears and 1 very very short fwd gear.

joke was “their all a bit backwards down there”

someone said he swapped the diff centres around and it was sorted.

Put the bypass after intercooler  

dont over spin, just run what he has and use the control to help with load down knock.

didnt know the sc14 ran a stepper motor either

If you gear the supercharger for millions of boost in midrange with the plan of bleeding the air out, you'll potentially be at risk of overspeeding the supercharger by high rpm. Then from what I hear they melt the telfon linings off the rotors then things get worse from there.

Also you're heating the air twice or thrice by recirculating it, which not only means hotter air at the outlet but less cooling from incoming air through the charger to keep it a little cooler I guess.

I'd be more inclined to just ditch that hot air and get more through.
 

Yeah can find the rpm specs online for them.

good point about the heat though.

if the charger was recirculating on it self and not causing pressure in the intake would it still create a lot of heat though?

I was more thinking about lowering pressure at low rpm to help with his high comp issue...?
