  1. There's a few stories on Autospeed (a bit older but Julian Edgar knew his stuff) More linked from the first story http://www.autospeed.com/cms/article.html?&title=AutoSpeed-Water-Injection-System-Part-1&A=110368 http://www.autospeed.com/cms/article.html?&title=AutoSpeed-Water-Injection-System-Part-2&A=110369
  2. Have a few old cards stashed in the shed. IIRC I bought this second hand via The Case BBS back in the day, early 90's I suppose. Not sure I could handle working with old PC's again. Too slow/finicky. I trashed a working Win 98 system a while ago to get some bench space back. I see someone selling this card on ebay for $89USD so there must be some sort of market for old junk if working. https://www.trademe.co.nz/computers/vintage
  3. Build it yourself, I've done it a couple of times for old cars. No issues at WOF time.
  4. Looks like insufficient adhesion of the primer to the steel? These days a pro would use a 2K epoxy to begin I think? Paging @Spencer or @Bellicose
  5. Did you check the flow out of the regulator with it plumbed up? I've wrecked fuel pumps due to a crimped/blocked return line.
  6. I'm not sure that is required, particularly for older vehicles. The repair certifier I saw recently about my imported rust bucket was happy for me to do the work myself. With this one, someone else imported it and it was rust flagged at the border (hardly surprising). I have had a VIN assigned at VTNZ and then had it looked at by the repair certifier.
  7. J5's link has a technical data sheet that shows some single phase wiring.
  8. Rack connection will just be a pinch bolt I would have thought, not a place where 8.8 is necessary? If you are interested, this book is a good read
  9. Is it warm enough for camping yet? Any free weekends before xmas? Does @Pee Dubs have a wagon?

  11. I got some door card backing stuff from an upholsterer that would work. Or something like this on heavy card https://www.fishpond.co.nz/Homeware/DIY-FLOCKING-KIT-WOOD-PRINTING-RESTORATION-PROJECT-FLOCK-DETAILING-NYLON-FLOCK-DURABLE-FINISH/9999914184211
  12. Seems like it will be close, and you can always add a few more mm with some flat bar if needed. If this is mainly about bump travel on full lock, I would expect that doesn't happen when travelling at speed. Hitting the bump stops on a dip on the desert rd at 100kmh (for example) will load them up a lot more and they will likely deform further.
  13. They are a good idea though, and having a rules argument with your certifier may not be a good idea.
  14. Good to see you got there, only a year or so late Nice work though.
