If people are too stupid to be able to distinguish between short term diagnosis instructions, and permanent band aids... then they should blow their s*** cars up and take the bus
Fitting an external wastegate to diagnose a boost problem in an oem setup is bats*** crazy.
Put a clamp on the boost control line to see if it boosts... go from there.
There is absolutely nothing reliable in that thread in regards to the airbag functionality. So it is still going to be a coin toss if it actually goes off in a collision.
No that's cool thanks Tony. I was just curious about the intake mainly... I had a good look underneath it on a few occassions when it was up on the hoist at macbilt. Very cool car... would love all the nice subframes and adjustable arbs one day.
That would be great, I heard it was black and covered in carbon fibre now... is that true?
Apologies for not letting you know about the pins etc... i just raided pick a part in the end.
Does anyone happen to have pics of the engine bay? Al told me the intake manifold on it gained 70 hp over stock without any other changes... he couldn't remember the name of the company that makes them though... just that they are in chch.
oh, found one already, and on here. https://s83.photobucket.com/user/hayden67/media/20150805_170721.jpg.html
I thought he meant just the engine bay... not sure why... but yeah... for time attack type vehicles they are probably good, as long as you have a good aero guy
sweet, i will pm you about it.
sure but prefer one that hasn't been subjected to heat and oil for 25 years... plus it's not exactly easy to get to a wrecker or pick a part these days.
Thanks for the link, so good and complete info there
No ring light on mine, the trademe link was just a random pic I found for reference. They all seem to have the plug though.
Hi,
Does anyone know what the two wire plug on top of the ignition barrel is for? (the plug above the key on top of the barrel... not the power wiring on the tumbler).
I have remove my loom to strip excess wires and have either removed the connector for this plug, from the loom, or it was never there.
