  1. I bet the porsche FB pages are not filled with Barries explaining how to make a car with the engine at the wrong end handle. But would be fun to wind some 911 owners on one of their pages... "I had an imp when I was young and it railed around the corners like it was glued to the road because I'd put a sack of concrete in the front. I fondly remember overtaking a 911 on a twisty road. He couldn't keep up on the corners. Might I suggest you guys try the same trick and add some ballast to the front of your cars" Barry.
  2. Fuck man- I put that pic up on the facebook imp page just as a piss take and the amount of Barries that have come out of hiding to congratulate me on my chassis tuning, mostly also with their own stories on which heavy items worked best...
  3. Your manifold looks fine to me. It could certainly be worse...
  4. Definitely go for a 36-1 trigger wheel. Run wasted spark and batch injection and even the basic Speeduino will still give you the ability to tune the lot to run way better than any carb will. Its all basic stuff and once you get stuck in its super fun to learn and quite addictive to keep striving for an even better tune. Have a chat with @kws about Speeduino. He's been down that road already. I still think there's better support for megasquirt and more information on a wide variety of setups. Both platforms utilise the same tuning software. So keep a look out for megasquirt deals.
  5. Very nice You forgot the photo with the turbos in view though..
  6. Took me several hours of waiting to get that shot. Animal photography
  7. Ahhh. I know that one. I've posted it up on oldschool before because a friend of mine in chch owned it for some time. Great combination!
  8. Dylans mate pops his head back out of the engine bay and says "looks like you just blew a seal" Dylan wipes mouth and says "nah, I just had an ice cream"
  9. What was the imps setup in that race? it did pretty well!
  10. Such a fun game stripping down a spares car and collecting all those bits. One of them might just get used in the future and all those times stepping over them, kicking them and moving them will be forgiven when you get to utter the following words... "I knew this would come in handy one day!"
  11. "I had to grab his trousers and forcibly lift his leg up, and he immediately got a totally inappropriate erection" Oh yes. Such mirth. You didn't know which gearstick to grab after that. Oh how we chortled when I suggested you scribble the numbers 1 to 5 on my knob with a vivid marker.
  12. Yeah I've tried that too. Still there. @chris r has messaged me just before and said to recheck my idle bleed screw. He had exactly the same sound. Turns out I'm not the only one suffering from whistling Honda throttle bodies. Loads of threads out there around the world with the same issue. When I rest my ear against the top of the plenum lid the sound is amplified and does sound like it's coming from the tb. I'm going to have another look at this tomorrow.
