well mr farmer! just spend a few weeks doing other cars, Jon a UK (lives in holland) friend of mine has a race striker, and he went on track for the first time a few weeks back which went rather well, we set up the car for him, and last saterday he had his first race in the colin chapman...

Ha Tony finaly a bloke that knows his brew! Grolsch or Jupiler and nothing else. PS If you'd fancy mounting a manifold upside down once with grolsch, try and get the grolsch special brew "Het Kanon" (translation) "the canon" it'd probably be inside out and mirror image at the same...

Oh one thing I just remebered when I was having a beer in the garage last night... On the 20v I have soldered an extra earth wire to the presure sender casing, because the dakota digital gauges in the dash are very critical on earthing, and sometimes where showing strange results on the...

The thread is " 1/8"BSP 28tpi " all toyota engines have this thread for their oilpresure sensors/switches what the japanese where thinking when adopting a Brittisch Standard Pipe thread, I haven't got a clue. do NOT try to stuff the NPT in the BSP hole, you will ruin the thread and it won't...

name suggest that they're 10 cubinc inch larger in diameter..... but not sure about that, you can measure up the length of the impellors to get the awnser. the shape of them is the same only the length should differ in various versions. grtz Thomas

Hey Rod, I absolutly do understand what you trying to say, but that's not the point for me, I know that the car will have cost twice as much as the striker cost me to build, and I don't care about that. as long as things stay in buget. also spending $2500 on clutch starter and flywheel parts to...

hmm didn't know that! good. grtz Thomas

Hey Mike, I think I have them covvered, the distance from flange to top mountening hole is 25.5cm the distance from sump bottom to top mountening hole 29cm the distance through the engine from top hole to top hole is a surprizingly low 39cm (making a caliper was a good idea!) I've also...

what I don't get is that, a company like richwood who has nice cast manifold for charger apllication, hasn't yet made the patterns to cast something like this, the market is there obviously. If you know a good old fashioned blacksmith or someone with a little backyard casting knowledge it...

Hmm interesting thing to measure up. I do not have the engine at hand right now, Will try and awnser what you asked, just to be sure, 1)You want the distance from Bellhousing face to the center of the rear most boltholes in the engine mounts? 2)the width of the engine inbetween the mount...

@ Erol Thanx tought so, @ Justin, that's exactly what I mean, where do those parts com from, @ Rod, even if you're lucky enought to live close to germany the small list of parts you gave will set me back more than what I payed for the: engine, SC's and gearbox together, so that's a...

haha it will take a lot more than ruining a nice towel in our home to get her unhappy, she even volunteered to get the gearbox out of the trunk of my honda accord all 70kg+ of it at 23:00 in the rain I might ad! anyway fresh oil and top it up fully then drain the exces when it goes into...

Thanks guys, should I put fresh oil in it now, or just leave the old stuff in it? ps itll be on a dolly to keep it of the floor and probably covered with one of Mrs Striker nicest bath towels, the box was more expensive than she was last year hahahah. grtz thomas

Not in wheelie action and probably not even worthy in this HP thread but surely wheelie cappable and shown in it's best inviroment, the rear wheels are taller that my clubman lotus seven replica. grtz Thomas

sorry for the welder I bought something that will actually will go in to the car..... as in a part! and the most expensive till now that is. A very good condition Porsche 964 911 G50-03 non LSD, 38.000km old, ex front end collision scrap car. with the 18" on the standard T70 and the max RPM...

Another Box measured up. it's a porsche G50-03 from a 964 chassis 911 3.6L NA without LSD the splined piece of the input shaft is a few mm shorter than the end off the bellhousing face, so the aera the spigot bearing slides over protudes about 5mm inside the bellhousing, the stock flexplate...

material thickness and type in the manifold versus the pieces after that also makes a big difference. the collector or the first cat itself is normally the hottest part in the system but material and design of the thing mostly prevents it from glowing nice to see these pictures my 20v...

can't find the pictures now (at work) but we bauke and I build a very short wheelbase vw based buggy once with a 1.6L subaru boxer in it and it would do on it's rear wheels every time you wanted it to, nice (little dangerous though) at the traffic lights, we even got fined for doing that once...

in more detail here you go. I descovered some small issues with the side measurment but only on the transmission face like .5cm longer than in picture. http://lextreme.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5166 grtz Thomas
