possible look at making a system up?

You looking at it for your Rally car or the Yellow Custard?

Need one for the rally car to spray some stuff on the radiator when the antilag is going in tighter sections of road. So I was hoping to find one that someone wasn't using anymore, rather than having to do the thing ourselves.

Sweet as i'll see what my brother did with my unit that i was going to mod up to fit and I'll get back to you

pretty easy thing to setup. mine has irrigation hose from the warehouse, plastic nozzles from a garden center, 10 litre bottle from supercheap, EFI fuel pump from pick a part, timing kit from jarcar, and some wire and a switch.

U prob need a 12L water tank from a spec c or something...I've got my stock type r one somewhere - but the bottle would only be good for a lap or two

[Guest boostin]

Yeah DIY it. Get a twin pump washer bottle and have the pump trigger off the high flow relay from the WAIC pump.

i remember seeing loren at pick a part getting some fuel pump to do this, did it work?

if u want a genuine viv i got my old one as i got a front mount now it wont fit so u are free to take them for cheap...

[Guest loren]

yeah it worked, but I screwed that one after a while by letting it run dry a few times... I've got another

one and it's fine, just got to make sure it always has some water to sit in.

[funkytown]

does the normal WAIC pump work?

if so viv - i have a spare one from the RS for you. and some of the water lines.

[Guest loren]

dunno, the thing I like about the EFI pump is that it's so high pressure you don't need expensive

sprayer nozzles to get good atomisation... I tried a pissy little windscreen washer pump at first

and it was useless with cheap nozzles.

[Munkvy]

San - you have PM.

I don't need alot of pressure or capacity as I wont be using water. Going to use Ice Power (http://www.autotechservices.co.nz/featured/icepower.htm) and see how efficient that is.

[Guest loren]

That shit is expensive though, $7/litre!!! would be better off with shit loads of free water... maybe chuck some meths in with the water for a little extra cooling.

Probably cheaper in the long run to take it to a lab and find out what it is made of. Or maybe Koom knows?

I don't care what its made of, initially I am only going to spray it in slow sections of stages to keep the temp under control if it spikes. I don't plan on running it constantly. For a rally to make sure I can continue to be competitive I am happy to live with $7/L Loren

If I was going to run it constantly then yes I would get a temp sensor kit setup with the Link and have a manual override included and run a 20L bag tank behind the seats using probably just water. But this is purely whats the most effective at cutting heat when it gets hot.

In saying all that though, the car has yet to get hot since we heat wrapped everything and changed radiators. However I have only done Slipway and some back road driving in it. When it last got hot at the last gravel sprint it was only getting hot once I got in to the slow section of road (4 1st gear corners in a row) and had the anti-lag working a lot. Aaron has after all set it up very mildly (as Sam can attest to).

I saw a few flames =]

But its very quiet and gentle compared to a Group N setup in the NZRC for example.
