I simply can't understand why its taking so long to design, manufacture, test, calibrate and verify this product - its got to be getting on for at least a couple of months now matt! when I wanted my turbo fitting the bloke knocked this manifold up in a couple of days: When you've got this...

Thanks again Matt, it was good to be involved with such a nice bunch of people. Fantastic result for the first outing of the year and with the car still in good shape at the end of the race, something which you can really appreciate after seeing the carnage at the start, that sort of thing must...

The elbow on mine is 70mm internal diameter, it fits perfectl. I didn't have to move my ECU bracket, I just used the new brace to push the ECU back slightly, the top left hand corner sits about 10mm further back than it did originally.

'Clarke' are about the best hobby mig welders, you are looking at £250 for a decent setup for that thickness though. Like Fred says, Clarke are avaliable from Maching Mart and avoid gasless like the plague...

Its to clear the anti roll bar, as from the factory.

OK, as long as you're not wanting to weld anything less than about 2.5mm, then go for an arc (stick) welder, You can get a really cheap one form lidl etc (£40) but when you start using thicker rods and more current it will struggle on a standard domestic power supply and keep blowing fuses. You...

yes but how thick, are we talking just thin bodywork or 4mm plate?

what do you want to weld?

On the issue of heat, I checked the airbox temp by touch today after my commute home: 30 mile drive with the last 5 miles stop starting in traffic and generally pootling along at 30Mph, so quite low airflow and the airbox was surprisingly cold, even colder that ambient. I was planning on fitting...

The breather filter it just tucked somewhere behind the ECU at the minute, I've not really done enough miles yet to notice the smell but its still on the standard pipe so not much to play with. It will probably be like this for a week or so, until I've raised another £20 for a catch tank.

I spoke to Andy about the heat issues, and he assured me it would make no difference, remember there's lots of cool air rushing through there very fast. He could have tried to sell me the more expensive option on that issue, but said there was no point. As for the battery, I'm using it day to...

I had a Maxogen last year and loved every minute of it, sadly I decided to sell the car, so I whipped off the airbox and sold it on, I brought the Maxogen in the GDI group buy and by the time I came to sell it on, it had lost about £60 in value - so yes, they are worth the Money. Thing is that I...

Found this over on Pistonheads, regarding R888's and cold weather! http://marktg.toyotires.com/file/tirestorage.pdf Just moved mine from the garage into the Bedroom, the Mrs is over the moon, but Sh1t, its all about priorities.
