nissan factory manuals sh*t all over these alfa ones

Fair enough. I think dad has an old haynes manual for Escorts around somewhere. Love haynes manuals.

+1

+1 good call Ravi.

not so much for crash but for chassis stiffness. The extra diagonal in them is probably a waste but I don't like squares :)

What about just an X rather than the square with a diagonal. I'd say it would provide similar stiffness with less weight.

oh, and will seam weld from the a pillars to all the front suspension mount points. Theres just no practical way to get enough cage bars through there :D

Sounds good. Whats the goal for completion? Is it going to be fairly drawn out ie 2012 sometime or are you going to hammer it through and be racing in 2011?

oh hai!

whats happening guysss?

ps i just drove down stafford road - phantom motors no longer exists?

Hai sexy legs.

nm is happening mang just working. You get your exam timetable yet? 8,10,17,18 and 22nd of June for me. Spread out a bit which is good but 5 exams fml.

Phantom have relocated I think.

Whats there now?

Are you happy with the tune you got from STZ mang? They are a haltech premium rep or something... (gonna run a PS2000 on the alfa)

X's are just as bad as squares. Think of a pair of scissors... although an X with the 2 ends (no sides) might be OK, ie:

rear brace->|X|<-harness bar

worth considering...

Whatever time/money/parts availability permits. Seems to be no luck getting an engine at this stage... :)

i vote racing in 2011

Would be nice :D

Fair enough.

    • Update:   smoke test all pipes no issues cleaned reservoir   fluid put in ( dexron 3 atf)   steering turn side to side and could hearing  gurgling from steering rack which I assumed was air lock, opened one of the steering rack connections and could see loads of air getting pushed out( not sure if you meant to do that / whether it will re introduce air into system)   anyways, loads of side to side sound was gone. Turned car on, pump was slightly ( barely) wining so turned side to side few more turns and fluid level when car on was almost none in resorvoir which I guess is normal if car is one. Turned car of and fluid was gushing out. Almost 200-300cc was pushed out. Repeated engine off side to side followed  by engine on and same result       going mad now. It seems system is either sucking air in whilst on or there is tons of air which I am not giving it enough time to bleed. Thoughts?   would it work like brake caliper if I open steering rack copper pipes and let gravity pull all air out?
    • Yeah, the plan is to just put some black rubber vacuum line caps over them to "hide" them a bit I don't want to trim them in cause I need to put the OEM box back on at some stage
    • It's a load sense idle up valve.
    • Plug and play. Need a tune. It's a PowerFC, same as any other PFC, just not needing an AFM.
    • Genuine GTR seat? There are none you would actually want for <$3k a pair.
