All Righty Then :burnout:

drum roll please...........320rwhp @ 16psi on Vortex........

The beast is back (has been for a week ;) ) and things are starting to sort themselves out! The car is a whole lot of fun to drive atm , especially in the wet!

& before everyone howls at me for running Shite fuel..."I Know!" this is a daily driver map & my company has Ampol Starcards! so it make sense to tune it to suit.

Once I have a few teething problems sorted out , I will take it back to SST's (with 98 gas ) and add a little more boost & a lot more timing :D

In the meantime it's all good , barring a lack of Cold Start tuning (My fault , by the time I drive the 200kms to Perth , It Aint Cold!) & a noisey starter motor (I have 1 being recond now , Thanx Dsturbd :) )

My initial "testing" over the 1/4 is verry promissing & I cant wait to get it back to the plex.

And Yes! I will be using the NOS again after a few more k's on the car , in the meantime the extra horses are the automotive equal to Viagra!

Cheers

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
    • I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
