Didn't need to lift the arm frank. Woo.
is yours a modded rail tho chris ?
well there you go thenYea modded frank
Dont think so Chris, the waxstat and icv are the primary modes of idle controls, and the timing changes areTa frank. Guessing that is what happens usually then when the icv is functioning?
Nah the ecu is synced with the dizzy mate, its still running 50 deg at cruise and 20deg under load/boost, its only the idle that is affected,This worries me. I now fear that this will effect the map and blow the engine under boost. I may revert to the old setup.
aye a proper growl you can hear it with the drivers window down, but it sounds f/kin horrendous through my ghetto det detecting stethoscope (plastic tube that runs down the a pillar and across to the back of the engine)Oh, fair I thought it may alter the base timing and nistune will work off that. Diesel crack? Lol never hear of that.
haha lol, reckon its det'ing then? at idle?aye a proper growl you can hear it with the drivers window down, but it sounds f/kin horrendous through my ghetto det detecting stethoscope (plastic tube that runs down the a pillar and across to the back of the engine)

I am making the car presentable... Job interview lined up... They want me to take he car in... I warned them it was a "development" car. Aka looks like a dogs dinner haha. View attachment 40096 more soon.
Yeah man
The whole car got done three years back. Just touching up this time. Spraying and brushing tbh. I first did it back then by brush as it needed a thick coat. This time round its just cleaning up. That's a lie I have taken a lot back with welding the cage and rails In. So will do a bit of both.You going to be painting up and around the roll cage? The roof looks a right pain in the ass..
Also, spraying or brushing?
Ah... It took me near a week of going over and over. Would be easier and less time of painted white however. Depends on what base colour the car is. Mine was white.. So painting it black was a pain. Black hides dirt better... Plus, I love hammerite. Will be painting the whole car black I think. The shell is starting to show rust.
Lol I can't, something always needs to be done. I like to be on top of it, painting the various bumper bits, grills and bonnet today. Its development, plus now the cage has gone in I can't be arsed doing it to another shell so best make this nice. Next time installing the cage will be easier I reckon as I have had practice. Got the other rally shell in the garden to be attacked soon.Haha you're never going to stop and just enjoy it
I'll strip and paint the inside at the end of this year then, cba to do it now

yeah mine is too tbh, its never been a car for looks. But I need it to at least look safe lolMines functional and working... But not too pretty.
Yours will be a badass race car

Still need to learn how to drive the car first eh well learn how to drive to be honest with you.Mines functional and working... But not too pretty.

I am thinking about a half dash and another half lol. So only thre drivers side, and only the top platform. anyone had any experiance?
Yeah all the way in.plastic allenkey idle screw fully in chris ?
you need to screw it out for the ecu to pull the timing back thenYeah all the way in.
I had a go and no avail! I wonder why. I will ram it back next time and see what happens. I do remeber ed putting the car on a very safe map, i wonder if this is a sign of it?you need to screw it out for the ecu to pull the timing back then
Bit of everything dude to start of with. Basically attack the scene with @maxk11
lol drag racing sounds like me braking drive shafts on the regularGo and redeem the micra at santa pod max was feeble
i doubt it chris, did you blip the throttle after opening the idle screw a bit ?I had a go and no avail! I wonder why. I will ram it back next time and see what happens. I do remeber ed putting the car on a very safe map, i wonder if this is a sign of it?
New job?Will have a go after my interview. What's the software you got there?
