How long does it take to recieve the appropriat cams licence.  Also where is a good place to put the fire extinisher?

You can get it on the day if need be but i would get it before hand.

Allow about 2 weeks but u will have your temporary one anyone if it doen'st trun up :P

yep, can get it on the day, nice to have it all sorted b4 hand though.

thinking of asking my old man if i can run the clubman :P will be on for donkey kong greg :P

EDIT: Savman, fire extinguisher has to be mounted SECURELY within reach from the drivers seat, ie. under your seat or something. has to be at least 900g dry chemical type (a red one) on a metal bracket.

Is that it for safety requirments? So rock up on the day, pay for your licence and screw a fire extinguisher to the floor? Cool.

XRATED - You'll need a battery locating sticker too. Just a blue triangle cut out of book covering 'contact' would do.

BOV - Thats soft! Your GTR would be awesome on that course.

Getting into the 49s is the plan this year.

BJ,

I picked up a Quaife the other day. So will try to have that installed. Also did a set of stainless tuned pipes and 2.75 in system. I think its pumping a little harder now - but still gotta get it around that bloody bend eh? :)

PS: Stu I know Im soft but Im gunna have to wait until I scratch it first and it dont matter after that. Once the Mrs runs the mags into the curb I'll be right :D

Cheers

thought my ears where burning!! hi stu and everyone else. yes, fixing up the bodywork, not much to it since dad's good at that sort of thing (im hopeless)

took the car out to baskerville yesterday to see what ive got to play with. i dont think i was driving it correctly, i also wasnt thrashing it either. just wanted to give it abit but was breaking fairly early for the corners. had to remember which way the track went (haha). its been over ten years since i had a blast. was doing 1.15's i think. i didnt have stop watch, only the dash clock and then counting after it clicked over a minute. heal/toeing was a bitch too.

front brakes started to warp so i gave it away for the day.

ive found this site which some tunning tips that might be of use for people.

hope to be at the hillclimb but ive just lost my job so it will make thing diff for a little while till i find another (let me know people if you know of any jobs going)

    • Some sense has prevailed! What kind of idiot spends money on intake, heads, and cams for a N/A motor in 2025? Lol. What maroons. Source:I am King Maroon.
    • So, cams are not getting installed......yet  Had a good chat with MX5 Mania about intakes, they recommend not to get ITB's, they recommend a plenum style for the NC So, one of these puppies is being ordered, with a larger TB to suit, when it arrives from the US the car will go in for the cams and intake I'm also getting a fancy rear box bit for the air filter box which will suit the new TB size
    • Clamp meter is pointless. Unless you're trying to keep average current under a set value for some weird reason (maybe you undersized your wiring?), then you'll get no useful info. What you're really trying to target is the flow of fuel coming back to the tank. You want some, but not a lot. You also want to make sure fuel pressure remains stable.   So, fuel pressure gauge, and fuel flow gauge. Set it up from that.
    • Aside from the fact it is likely fuel related if it is black, the symptoms otherwise sound like worn valve stem seals. Oil gets past the worn seals when the engine is off and burns when the engine starts. If it happens on deceleration while driving (puffs of white smoke) that is another valve stem seal symptom because oil gets sucked form the head into the combustion chamber under vacuum with the throttle closed. They can be replaced in the car if you have some way to keep the valves closed while working (eg compressed air into cylinders) but is much easier with head off.
    • Alright, fair enough. Expected as much. Possibly, yes. However the kit is apparently not including every single hose and it is out of stock too.
