Yes my clutch is a Giken R4C

i will try a bit of clutch slip when i run the car again.

i did not get a email from you please try again

Keith

what I was after was some pointers re your sequential trans' date=' I have got one on the way from giken , anything to look out for, i.e. have you learn't anything from experience that I should not do with it ?????? Giken gave me a 1000 or 1200 hp clutch option, but only quoted a R3C, what's your opinion, considering this car is going to have some street use how hard is the pedal with the R4C?

I will be breaking my engine in this week then going for a full power dyno run on pump gas, will wait for trans to arrive before trying c16 & nos.

re your launch problems, does the car make any boost on the line when using launch control ?[/quote']

My OS Giken R4C clutch is very easy to use,the pedal is not that hard.

Just to let you know R.B Motorsport had my engine and gearbox out last week

All the gears and dogs in my OS Giken Series 2 sequential

were all ok with no damage.

Not bad for all the hard work that it has done

600 miles running engine in

3hrs mapping at brunters

20 runs around 200 mph

50+ 1/4 runs on full power.

we found that the best gearbox oil to use was H/S redline

only put in 2.5L of oil do not fill as it will spit out what it dont need.

until you get up to using it use your clutch for a start and what

ever you do dont go 1st 2nd and hit first again remember to pull to

go up the box and push to go back down.

      I've watched some vids and the technique seems to be to butt the sheets up to one another and use MIG to spot weld and slowly fill in the spots until its eventually all sealed. No runs as you would normally do, as there's too much heat generated that way. Yeah my stick welds are terrible these days because its been so long since i've done any of it. I expect to be spending many hours practicing

      I have personally seen a Tomei USA RB26 cam that didn't even fit the head. Kind of nuts to me that it was even possible for that to happen but such is life.  There's two UP Garages in the US. One is a US branch of the Japanese company which sells things they brought over at tremendous markup. The other is University Place Garage/Fairlady Motors which is a shop best known for putting VCAM in RBs and trying to convince people to stop putting in 800hp of turbo on a 2.5L motor.

      Gasless MIG is not exactly suited to what I would call "delicate" or "attractive" welding. So I would rule it out for sheet metal rust repair type stuff, unless you're only doing it in hidden places. I'm thinking about getting myself a gasless MIG for "hack together" type work. Noting that my welding experience is very very low, and quite a long time ago. So I'm also looking for "simple", but I'm not expecting "excellent". I'm not even sure that proper MIG is the best for sheet metal work. I get the feeling that the degree of control and the minimisation of heat input that you get from TIG is probably what you really want. And then you have to get good at doing it before the welds won't look like a monkey flinging a handful of shit anyway. You're probably SOL for an easy and cheap way to get from where you are to where you want to be. Much like myself.

      Any recommendations for what would be the easiest welding type to start on, for sheet metal rust repairs and maybe some exhaust piping too? Seems like MIG is the most common. Would gasless MIG be ok to learn on and do some simple jobs? I have a stick welder which has a Lift TIG setting, but i'm more interested in getting whatever's easiest to do, and most suitable, rather than using what i have.
