Full confidence in Jez, he doesn't strike me as someone who would think fumes in the boot is acceptable.

Jez picks up hitch hikers on the Pacific Highway and if they are still conscious 30 mins later then the system passes the test....

haha, thats a worry, I do not think I want to leave my car with someone that picks up hitch hikers, well, unless they are really HOT!

not that it will make any difference but what did the Teflon braided cost for the job, just wondering the price difference between that and a cheaper alternative ?

I can't remember whet the hose cost. As its my daily I have 3 kids to cart around so I didn't want any fuel smell so Teflon in the boot and series 400 outside the boot

Talked to Jez today and he is using the Teflon Braided lines, so all good.

I have kids too, so I know what you mean and the trouble with petrol you do not need more than a drop or 2 and it hangs in there for yonks :/

The original one is in this thread.

The car hasn't been to another tuner yet.

But you'd know that, because you'd read a thread before commenting.

I dropped the car at the tuners yesterday and think Mark means the Dyno print from the test run. I think they were just having a look at it and said the tune was pretty good, so we will see what we end up with.

The car will need the other work done before the final tune and I should get a before and after result off the same dyno to post.

Correct Pete, thought you might've had something already. Initial feedback positive at least...

will be getting something later today I think.

The initial feedback was that the tune was OK, there were a few things to look at but it was just a run for him to see what is going on.

It's in good hands up at jez's shop :)

It will be interesting to see how it turns out considering he said the tune was OK and pretty aggressive, so we will soon find out.

XKLABA drove it and posted a few thoughts on an earlier page

Talking about XKLABA, he was 1st in his class at the Tamworth round of the NSW Hillclimb Championship and only 0.33 off the class record, go Mick :banana:

I think he was 8th or 9th overall :cheers:

    • I haven’t taken them out of the cases yet    inside the box is this packaging which is pretty much like a massive blister pack 
    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with 215/45 17 PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25, this also includes some PDR as it has received a few love taps from parking in the local shops when in the hands of my Minister for War and Finances, me, I park nowhere near other cars and typically park on the street The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing  All of the NA 2.5 glory, well.......until sometime in 2025 anyway....🤪  
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
