Yeah for booster. 10mm will work fine. 3/8” is toight I’ll try them , cheers @Bling

Where can 3/8” vacuum hose be sourced? typical culprits don’t have anything in stock

Highly keen for this

How stinky was it when you got to her? the water that drained out smelled like a 6 day old nappy, I was hoping the drain plugs and lifting the carpet let it breathe enough until you got to it. carpets look awesome

Go all the way and run triple IDA’s on a ez30, 6 trumpets out the bonnet on a custom manifold.. haha just to be different

Absolutely not happening haha I had flares on a s1 rx7 I bought, never liked them, I’ll leave them for the spitfire rollers these are 8s so a whole inch wider than OG RX3UTE, I will give the arches a gentle roll with my guard roller. tyres will be some used semi slicks for now

So still haven’t finished body work. I put a hold on it until the hunter is legal. but I did make one purchase that was very necessary… let the photo do the talking Your welcome

Cough #porsche 911 turbski with a late model 6speed box

Yeah, don’t even think he’s used it. Just changed things round.

Made up an exhaust shield as well as its less than 50mm between the tank and muffler.

I can’t wait to get these reactors retrimmed to a more suitable colour. I made up a switch panel today just to temporarily *permanent* house the switches. have a kill switch, diagnostic switch and the red one has been set up to be the engine check light. also made up the centre console plate and painted it. Need to get some black vinyl to finish it off. Then the screws will disappear. also made a bellhousing plate to fill in below the engine. running a golf ball for a gear knob for now

I saw a group racing these at Crank up in Edendale a few years ago. they were part of a club possibly out of Gore. most of their rigs were modified reel mowers, was crack up

Did a thing and drove it home today. off for an alignment tomorrow, drives straight as already. definitely need to address the exhaust height, it’s low, too damn low now that I dropped it another 10mm or so.

I never ran a tsl on my truck carting my Stockcar. the system is a joke and needs fixing. imho a tsl should only be required by those who offer transport for hire or reward. Ie paid cartage of goods or passengers. I once bought a 510 trader off temuka transport to carry my first Stockcar, he told me to leave his tsl on it and run it as is. What a gc.

Well boys!! It drives, and boy does it drive. handles great, smooth acceleration. so stoked. no driving vid, no co-pilots available. made up 50mm blocks from 50x50x5 shs. booked in for an alignment on Thursday. just need a cert now

Wow howdy, Humpty is all together again. fitted a air filter off a pipe due to not many other options. radiator was modified by Waiuku mufflers and worked perfectly. there’s only a couple of things to do to button this up now: hose clamps on the intake elbow. fit the o2 sensor. replace the rear UJ that I have. swap the 40mm blocks for 50mm blocks. make a centre console cover plate to suit the shifter. give it a wash and an alignment.

Throttle control haha. it’s not a daily, so I’m not too worried about a lumpy cold idle. aslong as it runs and drives for now

Update. seems to be sorted. took the throttle body off. found that the IAC was open venting into the intake. Removed it and made a blanking plate. gave it all a good clean out. got it back on , fired up and died. adjust idle stop. then fine tuned the idle with the screw. cheers legends

Legend, I’ll try this too. thanks

Just got home from car club night, they said something similar. Sounds like they have wax or something inside the throttle body to help control cold idle etc. can block it off and manually set idle, clean it out etc. coolant system is clean as. but will throw it outside tomorrow and let it get to temp and see if it changes anything

Hey all. need some further ideas to my issue. 4age fires up really nice, idles away at 2000rpm cold, then after a minute it starts hunting between 2-2500rpm. I’ve done the old brakeclean test around the manifold etc. this is running a map sensor. possible timing issue?

Nice, that’s exactly what I need to sort. looks clean

Bled up the clutch today, then noticed the fork was sitting in the wrong spot on the throw out bearing. so pulled the box, found the metal retaining clip was bent. smashed it back and reinstalled the box, now it sits great. Funny that.. not much left to do on it, probably a days work. Couple of vac lines, finalise a bit of wiring, sort some radiator hoses/outlets etc. refit carpets and modify the console, fit the lower shifter boot. and find a suitable pod filter.

Now that its running, i need to consider the next swap Not..... totally done with this one. Now the biggest task of getting a cert spot

Thanks to everyone who chipped in with some advise snd stuffs. This was timed by just slapping the dizzy in at tdc. How good. It barked off. https://youtu.be/-MInAy-86bk Only a few more things to finish off now. Waiting on some alloy bends to arrive so i can modify the radiator outlets to suit the tiny 4age piping size. 12a=40mm, 4age=32mm. Need a pod filter and maybe a elbow???? Couple more p clips on the fuel system. Replace the driveshaft ujs Blank off 2 vac lines on the throttle body. Replace the temp wiring with goodly stuff. Pull the box out, fit a sandwich plate, inspect the fork and bleed the clutch. Refit carpets and modify the console cover. Job done
