@IMACUL8 At a minimum I recommend this:

The OEM CAS is terrible on big powered cars, you always end up with triggering errors at high RPM.

Of course a proper crank/cam triggering kit is best.

Thankyou - appreciate the suggestion.

Nice car Dan. 

The Albins appears to be a good gearbox simply going off the word of mouth around the traps so to say, I'm unsure who you were ordering it through or the custom 3rd party casing/adapters to fit in the R33 tunnel as described, assuming PRP then is the reason for your problems.  Yes mirror image of what you said , things magically going missing, stuff that you paid for doesn't end up being in box (why is that so common??),  general bullshit that is no good and shouldn't happen especially as it's a 30K spend the guy that runs the show cares not about the stuff you wrote about (work hard etc, pay big money, pay for best product = let down) also customer plays part of the R+D of the custom bits / linkages or whatever at their expense and burden.    After sharing a similar view to you, I got bluntly advised its a privilege to even have any of their products so the waiting time (bullshit excuses etc, stuff magically grew legs walked out of the box, dissapears or magically somehow didn't end up in the box as you describe), which I experienced too ofcourse.

The EFR8474 you bought off me is a great little unit very similar to the 9180, yes it's snappy and drove like you described and it's best suited for something to punch through a few gears in and then just cruise once upto speed, it was great in a H pattern box coming into each gear so I can only imagine how great it works with the sequential keeping it on boost.

    • My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
    • Ye, in terms of bolting up the "Conversion" from a GT to a GTT is effectively "Use GTT parts for everything" Except the subframe itself, because you won't want a HICAS/4WS subframe. Remember your ABS system will be different too, thanks to GT being the S15 3 sensor system, instead of the R34 4 sensor system for wheel speed. I do not know how people get this to work given R34 diffs do not have a provision for an ABS sensor (they are on the tone wheels of the axles). I assume***** people use S15 gear/R34NA forever when they realize this - Or they convert it to a rear diff/axles that are R33 style which I presume has the singular speed sensor on the diff itself, but then you have to wire it all in and...and... and...
