well wanted it to fire up tonight but think i put earth cable in wrong place as sounds like starters not getting a good earth, even tried jumping the car but nothing, will have another go tommorro,

cant wait to get it running, i getting it mapped while on in thiland (1 nov) so they can have a play with the meth and see what can do and they can take there time,

cant wait to hear her going now, hows your car? fitted actuator yet?

hoping for 320 bhp and torque on the region of the same but we will see, i going bt on a yr or so but want to see what can achieve with water meth and high fow mani,

shouldnt take long to start it, will see what the problem is, you know where your main earth cable goes on your gearbox? is it meant to be direct onto starter motor bolt?

yeah mate if can check would be good as i put mine onto one of nuts on top of gearbox but thinking might need to go onto the bolt that connects starter motor to gearbox, been a right bugger, would have had it started if wasnt for that one thing but i cant complain all is good ;)

got the car started today but had a few problems, there is a exhaust leak either beetween the turbo and mani as there isnt a gasket there or somewhere else, also the plastic housing that holds the temp senders cracked and is leakin so need a new one of them, going to try and source a new gasket ans plastic housing then should be on the road :)


also need a pressure bleeder to do clutch and brakes

got a pic below of the difference beetween clutches, had to drop box off, shace 1mm off a bolt and then put it back together so put me back a bit, thats the bad thing about not having the tools :(

all done though just want her back on the road now :)

Never got anything but no worries! In no major rush for the injectors as I reckon I'll get a diff before the hybrid, think that will benefit me more over winter haha if you need the money though I can pay you whenever and just get the injectors off you when convenient!

Hope the little niggles are sorted soon and this weapon can be ran in and mapped up :D

hi mate no im cool for money so you can have them when im back at end of nov if want, my car should be mapped so can take you out in it,
i got my diff from psi tuning may be worth giving them a call and see what can do for you? i limiting my boost with mbc before get mapped an wont be giving the car stick for about 1000 miles, you got your turbo yet? and had the clutch lightened yet too?

Spot on, cheers mate :)

Ill be getting the diff sorted before the hybrid. Thought i may aswell as ill have clutch and flywheel sitting there. Flywheel should be done by next weekend i think, then gotta save for the diff and fitting etc think the diff will be better for me over winter, rather than more power haha

Ill try psi tuning, cheers :)

got car all together and went for a drive but theres a bangong noise in the engine and when go to pull off vibrates and bangs bad, the bangs inrease with engine speed so im guessing its the flywheel. the thing is was on engine that blew up for only 40 miles but im now trying so sources a single mass flywheel, will have to get this done when come back from my holdiay,
