New Runaroound

[pdtaylor18]

Its gonna be superb. I just cleaned my loom of unwanted wires and now I have secured a Emanage Ultimate so need to do it all again now. !! Worth it though.

While since we updated on thise one.
 
After finding that i had NO fuel pressure at all and No time to do much work on this little beasty i have ordered new pipe for fuel rail (smaller bore), fuel pump and  better pressure regulator hopefully we\'ll be runnig in properly very soon.
 
Mircotech is going in tomorrow instead of the E Manage Ultimate so a nice few hours for wiring the engine for me. Totally changed the Exhaust on this as the true dual won\'t be appropriate for the Peripheral port set up.

All depends where peak torque/power is but its balanced for around 10k will go more though id required.
 
As far as expected power don\'t really have a target. Just seeing what happens. this is a kind of \'test run\' before i do the 20B.
 
I\'m like you though. Can\'t wait to hear it.

A test run before the 20b??? you going to reuse this engine or start a new one?

[dthebuk]

i believe the man owns a 20b fd....wait a sec, does that mean you\'re gunna PP that too!!!

[Brett]

If you ever need a new home for the EGi - I\'ll be here, waiting... :Giggle

Fantastic work

(Are you coming to Brooklands?)

[jm-garage.co.uk]

I\'m thinking PP on the 20B too. Not 100% yet.
 
Hopefully at brooklands depends how quick the paint shop is with my car.

[Brett]

I don;t care if it\'s in primer - just bring a rotor!

Long time no speaky.
 
Yeah FD is slowly but surely to be honest. Busy with customer cars so not finding too much time to do mine!!

Living yes. Workshop in Caterham.

Made up the new loom today for the Microtech so thats ready to go in. Pretty much ready to fire up once thats in. Just waiting on a set of new trumpets with injector ports as i\'m moving the primaries onto the ports on the ITB\'s and the secondaries to a pre butterfly position to allow more time for air/fuel to mix.
 
Electric fan to go on and debating about doing a electric water pump to get the super minimalist look. But concerns of electric water pump life.
 
Distributer set up has been lost in favour of electronic ignition and FC crank angle sensor. Works 10x better with the mircotech that way.
 
Wheels & tyres to go on tomorrow to 18x8.5 the front and 18x10\'s the rear so it will look nice and FAT :chat
 
Pop some pics up tomorrow.

Just about managed to get the wheels on before going home.
 

 

 

 

 
A wee bit of suspension and chassis modding needed next.
