  1. L is for light usually, so I would expect just a led would do the trick,I guess you aren't using a warning light? On my lotus I just used a normal 12v bulb and it worked great, but then that was an older lucas internally regulated alt, but I can't see it being too different. The local auto sparky had a big speal about why a diode isn't the same as a bulb, but I didn't pay as much attention as I should have, so maybe for the $5 that a 12v bulb costs then give it a hoon, like I said it was the recommended action for mine.
  2. I would seriously just put a decomp valve in the head, they work great on big saws and they are like $10. If the ignition is right for max powa then it os the only option imo.
  3. I would go as far as saying they are more bullet proof than a k series, basically just keep putting gas in it and drive into the sunset.
  4. Masterpowers have been a good cheapish turbo for a while now, long gone are the days of glued compressor housings and catastrophic failures. I guess the reason you dont see them used more is that they are twice the price of China turbos and half the price of Garrett, so dont suit cheap or rich people, which are basically the only two types of car guys hahaha.
  5. Like so: http://www.useasydocs.com/Bosch_211.gif
  6. I would use the Subaru Ignitor, they are cheap and easy to get, and work great, as well as get pesky noise out of your ECU (which isn't designed or shielded properly like oem ones are). And yes they are definitely Logic level, Supply it with your ign out and it will work.
  7. Yup that cherry item I posted is legit, just know that you need to add a pull up resistor to get a super clean signal.
  8. Bloody good job mate, I love it when people do good work like this.
  9. My advice to you is to modify stock items as little as possible to get you to the height you want, get cert, then put in all of your nice gear. There is no good reason for our rules, so simply ignore them, once you have a cert that says adjustable suspension you will get wofs no problem.
  10. You paint a car in one go for sure Ed, blends are mediocre at best, particularly with metallics.
  11. It is 120 wall crmo from cardwells I'm pretty sure. No threading, just weld in inserts.
  12. Man, definitely just whip the paint off and pull the dent out, you will be lucky and it will actually work, my bobber tank was full of dents and it was made out of 3mm steel so I couldn't get them out haha It will be like a days work to fix that properly and then it will be mint, most other methods will Fuck the tank.
  13. Super easy to get. This is the one that Tom and I used on our respective cars with no trouble. http://nz.rs-online.com/web/p/hall-effect-sensors/7659328/ You can get different ones for cheaper off eBay I found but unsure about them, but that one from rs definitely works mint so might be worth spending the $60
  14. This is Fucken rad, good work guys! What are some of the specs? 350 350 combo with a cam and converter or something?
  15. Good job man, you should be well stoked.
  16. Looks great. I hope this going to have a wild spanny on it.
  17. You'll break the gearbox before you get to 80 skids won't you? / good jerb Ed. Back pats etc
  18. Can you paint this canary yellow on silver steels, and make it go zutututu, kthxbai.
  19. If you use an external igniter or logic level coils you dont need the on board igniters (bip373s) though right? That is a sweet set up though, good job. Seeing he has to keep the dizzy it is probably worth putting the trigger there even though it is slightly less accurate.
  20. Heaps of things use water spark coils, I used wrx coils, they need an igniter which is no big deal, you can get the coils off aliexpress for $40 or so. Evos also use wasted spark, but there isn't any need to get wasted spark coils, as you can just wire up individual coils to fire together. So if you wanted you could use four ls coils. All you have to check is whether that which ever coils you use are logic level or not, and use an igniter as applicable. Basically pick a part/ zebra mission is on the cards.
  21. If you are set on keeping the dizzy, I thought this was a super clever way to do the ignition trigger. Yu could keep the dizzy cap if you wanted too. Actually it is just a fucken cool setup.
