Yeah - that sounds pretty right to me - but of course Im not an expert!

Naa - not for our original plans! The original intention was to go fairly modified with engine in stages, go high comp, flowed heads etc, including the dual intake thats on the car now. For various reasons beyond our control we're only going to run the 1UZ in the NSW championship, the engine...

Hey Zuffen, We get em from Turbo Exhaust at Smithfield - all 90deg bends plus some straights, mostly offcuts. Collector is real cheap version too. Not sure we'de do it the same way again, its just not as nice a job as you'd get done on site with the right angles... You dont really notice...

As long as its under 96Db!!

Exhuast is: 1 5/8" primaries 900mm long, secondarys are 3" by 800 with a x-over into 5" supertrapps. We made it ourself at a total cost of Aus$400 excluding the trapps. Not sure how its going to perform yet as it hasnt been on a dyno yet... but common sense, EAP and some advice from here...

Getting soooooo close!!! Figured heres a good chance to say thanx to those that have helped with advice etc. Esp Zuffen and David. CHeers guys!!!!

Jake, re the pedals, CNC do a master cyl reverse swing over design so that the master cyl is reversed over the top of your toe as per http://www.cncbrakes.com/cncbrakes.com-asp//dcbpa.asp?grp=dcbpa&subgrp=rsm&series=224&subseries=NR. They come in 10, 12 and 14inch to vary leverage. Might be...

Its an interesting idea - US$200 (or thereabouts) has anyone used one?

Ive wired the car so that I can spin it up without ign to get oil pressure before flicking the ign switch. Not sure if this is going to be necessary as Im not sure how long its going to take to get pressure up, but thought it couldnt hurt! Dumb question time: Is there any way of priming the...

its what we're doing - though ours is untested at the moment... Shouldnt be a drama though.

Nice job so far I reckon. What are your plans for exhuast mani? Will you have to remove more firewall? Will you be able to get engine in and out on its own, or will it be bolted to gearbox already? (we have to do this with the racecar due to input shaft from gearbox) Looks like a fun...

I asked a similar question (Im in an a-arm buggy, roughly 2000 series jimco size) and got a favourable response. We're gonna do it and mount the cooler next to the radiator behind the drivers head.

I reckon it'd make a good anchor... :p

thomas, ive got a complete stock1uz file for EAP at home somewhere. PM me ur email add and I'll send it over on monday if you want to have a poke at it.

another quick question - is there a cork gasket between bowl and sump? if not, just use normal gasket goo and torque to say 5 or 8 pound?

Tranny... hehe... I'll ask one of them at mardi gras in a couple of weeks!

And here was me thinking if your cats are glowing and smoking then your tabbys are radioactive with a cigarette addiction... :p surely running on 4cyl would be seriously noticable under the right foot?!!?!

Weve already got a t-peice further down the line for our gauge after the high pres pump. Good suggestion though! If it wasnt already plumbed I would have done that!

Brilliant, thanks. Makes a whole lot of sense when you think about it.... *knocks knuckles on forehead* As we're not running the cold start injector It'll just be plugged.

Niiice... the tyres look pretty small, what size are they? Are you running them at the moment to overcome your gearing issue with a plan to change them later? Whats the suspension configuration? Double A-arm all around? what hubs, spindles, uprights are you running? our 1UZ is going into...
