Thanks for the info sideshow, will let you know if i cannot get hold of anything else.

Yeah can do that (got a few modules around the place) but its not as neat as a sensor that does it all in one. The reson is the ECU i have does not have a proper zero crossing detector for reluctor sensors and as such loses sync during cranking sometimes. I have dealer access to the PC...

Have a look at the AutoRotor/Opcon/Lysholm/Whipple, all twin screw and all more efficient than the eaton when chasing bigger numbers.

I have heard a few times there is a model of Ford that has a crank/cam/CID sensor that is a reluctor sensor but its output is a 12v or 5v square pulse (ie it does the conversion from magnetic sensor to hall effect style in the sensor head unlike the factory toyota that sends the magnetic signal...

An old thread with the zoom article... http://lextreme.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1174&highlight=zoom+celica The dyno graph shows it has one of the most usable power bands i have seen from a turbo'd engine- its more like a PD blown engine.

I have used Chemtec Blitz, its a mild phosphoric acid and works well, old corroded aluminum comes up nearly ike new. Not as good as bead blasting but as good as i could get things at home. Got it from the local auto parts shop (Odin Autos for Perth ppl). Brush the stuff on and hose off after...

Hey Aaron, never got a PM from ya, got an email saying i had one but nothing was there?

U have mail....

As per title, can be cut at firewall. Needs all engine connectors to be intact though.

Complete engine and trans. Has mid sump, all accesories, tailshaft yoke and cut loom. All sensors except AFM. Located in Perth, needs to sell due to having no where to store it anymore. $1200ono

Still got the wiring loom? Does not matter if its cut.

Cool, thanks Andrew.

Sorry but a little OT, but any idea what 4 x 50mm TBs would flow?? Using a couple of Ford F-150 TBs (dual 50mm) on a conversion.

The knock sensor on its own is just a piezo microphone and really cant show you any useful info using just an LED. There are many noises happening inside the engine while its running so the knock sensor is connected to an amplifier and bandpass filter. The filter is tuned to the resonant freq of...

Knock retard?? What fuel do you run??

Also another factor is the cost and enviromental impact of an electric car. An employee of the company i work for converted a toyota echo to electric power to get to and from work (around 40km per day), the total cost of the car (including purchase) was something like AUS$16k, but using...

yeah but no second gear or lockup torque conv, manually shifting gets gears 1-3-4

Have you looked at the specs of both the fan and power steer pumps, they are VERY different.

Nothing if you are happy with the possibility of someone using your project for their financial gain. The people that were involved in the original will certainly be not at all helpful if any project was to ever re-start. In any case the cost of building a DIY kit now would probably be similar...

I would seriously consider the LC-1 from innovate motorsport. I have its bigger brother, the LM-1, and it is fantastic, the software it comes with is EXTREMELY powerful. It uses a completely different measurement technique to all the other wideband sensors using the Bosch sensor which allows it...
