Top Hose with one of those adapter thingos......or just tap the thermostat housing

Looks like the sender that came with it will fit in place of the stocker.

YAY!

Stuart, more rice for the whale! Need an idea on where to fit the sender though. Thoughts?

nothing rice about using good quality American gauges.

I fail to see why a gauge requires the need for an "opening and closing ceremony"....its not the bloody olympics!

True I guess.

the thermostat housing is on the side of engine underneith intake manifold, so it wont be going there, besides it has to go before the thermostat, not after. id say just swap it out with standard guage sender, as it would be gay to run two temp guages, full auto salon temp tacho style.

no, but the waning features are pretty useful.

No updates in more than a month. Goes in for a tune on Saturday and will post results.

Dropped the oil filters yesterday and found stuff-all of any interest. That was pretty positive. Also discovered the best thing NOT to wear when working on a car is jewelery/watch.

I had the fuse cover off the fuse/relay box on the driver's side and was tightening the main oil filter line up when my watch touched both the positive terminal on the battery and the throttle body. Trouble was, my hand was stuck (I had put some effort into wedging it in there to get to the fittings) and it took several goes and lots of swearing to get it out. All the while big sparks were flying and my arm was burning.

I tore my watch off only to realise that the back of it was burning my other hand so i threw it on the ground and went to run cold water on my wrist. It looked okay till about 20 mins later.

On a brighter note, my TG Live tickets arrived. YAY!

Picked up four of these little farkers for an absolute steal thanks to Pauly. Don't have to drive 'round on the drag radials now.

don't forget to do the deal with Lee...get onto him...he said he'd have it done by now.

[2rismo]

You need to get onto him and chase it, mate. I'm happy to pick it up and send it up to you though.

The boss bought some tyres from Ozzy (that your mate referred him to) so there was no money to be made on them.

Even worse, they didn't fit on the front end so he bought two sets!

Initial tuning today and the car made 280kW at 19psi. Happy but it's time for some boost now :-)
