Quote from: Grant Monkhouse;867102Yeh best place for sure as there\'s no cars coming the other way. I have been a passenger in Clive\'s NA rx8....... I think my hand print is still on the door handle for holding on whilst he nailed it around oulton park:evillaugh

You got a passenger ride Grant... You lucky boy

Yep, my jaw and cheeks still ache from smiling so much for 4/5 laps

I got some hot laps with him at Cadwell part a couple years back.
Was awesome.

Glad the motors running now Clive

re japi

Thank you sir :)

It kind of sounds funny, she doesent brap much :)
Power is nothing without control. Weight is enemy of performance, handling and braking.

It sounds nice, but it doesn\'t sound like an aggressive bridgeport, a lot of the 13B motors I\'ve seen racing recently don\'t though.  Umar Masood\'s RX7 Time Attack car sounds similar, probably a very similar engine spec though.  I guess it\'s the price you pay to get these through the noise regs.
RX8 High Power, Cusco Coilovers, Dotz wheels and flames. Shoe Size 12
 
Apparently putting details of your car spec in your signature means the nice folks on exile-rotorsport think you\'re a fool.  I can think of no higher compliment!

Looks good! Sorry if I missed any emails, wasn\'t intentional!

I do have one question for you about the return style fuel system. Are you just using one fuel tank? The factory fuel pressure regulator siphons from the other tank.

Lastly I am curious why it took 7 hours to create a running base map? Not knocking anyhow, but in my experience you can have a car up and running from scratch in under 10 minutes using the VE tuning. Was it just a matter of trigger settings?

Many thanks Elliot, I am hoping that by having the syphon pipe right near the pick up this will start the syphon effect ok

Having a few issues ATM that I have posted on the RX8Club, could you have a look if you get a chance please

Anyone here good at following wiring diagrams because one thing we are struggling with is that we have no live OBD port so we cant read any codes off.

Anyone got just an OBD wiring diagram at all please.

Or can bring out the page needed to follow the wiring from the OBD port I have drawn below

Wiring diagram below.

BTW, I have deliberately not cut any wiring.

Tried calling last night about this it looks like the power goes through the main 120a fuse the the 15a room fuse

Thanks Aston, off over there shortly and will check these fuses, I know the room fuse is OK but will check continuity from the main fuse box

Based on that diagram I now need to check what and where the SAS Control module is, incase I have not got it connected

Many thanks for yours and Dads help yesterday
All the best Clive
