I dont know what PPG is like nowadays but if they are anything like they used to be stick with the OS gear set. Although only a 2 wheel drive we have been using the full gear set for years now and its perfect

How many pumps are in that surge tank? and what pump are you running?

Yeh I think I'll be running os gear set agy synchros and galvs billet sandwich plate when I build the box I have decided but I want to see how long this one last first! Pretty pricey build I just hope I don't kick myself for not going for the more proven tougher set ups first up too soon!

So it's been a long time since I posted on here but the car is finally running! Big day on the dyno tomorrow!attachicon.gifImageUploadedBySAU Community1404984430.634811.jpg

Very nice mate, good luck with the tune! Looking forward to seeing how it performs :)

Car wasn't ready to pick up in the end so hopefully run in will be done this weekend!

Considering I drove it Friday and still have a broken leg I think I'll wait the last few weeks till it's better to get the full tune! Would hate for the thing to get away from me!

Finally got some power down today!! Still not finished need to fit some stiffer gate springs yet which will make it even more exciting!! But she made some nice power without braking a sweat which says a lot for this little turbo!

Bit of an update got another tune after sorting the gate springs and gate control now.

Made 626hp @30psi but loads and loads of torque. The response is ridiculous I will have to get a pic of the dyno graph this week but I think that is the absolute max the little gtx35 wants to push out the rear of it so for now that will be all unfortunately until something bigger is strapped on!

Another update though...

A RE401B with manual valve body has found its way into the car over the weekend to help with some up coming drag racing duties.

I'm sure this will get lots of hate! No doubt it will go back to manual one day but you can't beat a built auto for drags!

Having said that hopefully it makes powercruise so I can put it to the test!

    • Good to see your rotors appear as rusty as mine šŸ¤Ŗ
    • Took it for a drive to do some logs, Iā€™m pretty sure my voltage issues and electrical noise issues are gone, Iā€™ve sent a log to Adam and am waiting to hear back with confirmationĀ  att.K23U9eHyiEJxixH6y1__GQfuqK0EgIoDgQFTs9G8x_w.mp4 Ā  idle video from that day just becauseĀ 
    • Went looking at mine, reading off the tyre, presumably these are 1st week of 2003. Still hold air (I haven't had to pump them up in over 12 months!) Ā  Ā  I couldn't quickly find the date on the front tyres, they were fitted around 2008 to the rims, so probably not quite as old, but they have a lot more dry rot cracks in them. Still hold air.
    • I am now intrigued to go check the dates on the tyres on my Skyline... We need a game of who has the oldest tyre still holding a car up, and successfully holding air (for longer than a 2 weeks I feel is successful air holding). Ā  I feel your tyres may be beating mine
    • Ok, still waiting for a date to get the cams installed on the MX5, why so long, because MX5 Mania has received a few new sets of different cams with different specs for the MZR and are currently trialling them, and working out what is best for 2.5 "powers" with stock internals, in the end if I go bigger than the Kelford stage 1 cams I'll need to look at the valve springsĀ  Hopefully I'll get the news on them next week As for the boot of the car getting fixed, I hopefully pick it up early next week, I was sweating on picking it up yesterday but, meh, it was not to be, so ne weekend cruising for me
