Didnt use the quickrelease in the end... or at least for now anyway, but it seemed ok... and when i had it on the car there was no prob releasing/getting it on.

KSport harnesses are harnesses..... same as sparco/luke/sabelt etc. If you arent needign them to be in FIA date maybe look for used ones on EBAY and you should get them cheaper.

Bought a Power FC for this....

A bit of an 'old' ecu, but they are tried and tested... and cheaper than the likes of a Solaris.

Also have the datalogit hardware for loading various maps etc.....

Will order clutch today or tomorrow...

change of clutch plan.... cant get an AP for weeks so went for the quick fix of the exedy FK01H601 kit... supposed to be good to around what i'm planning.

The car wont be running 400bhp till i sort out injectors anyway so it'll do for a while!

a couple of pages back....

a big end bearing had completly gone on No2. The rod was moving (side to side) on the crack when you wiggled it with your hand. Sump was full of bearing swarf.

Still have that engine so will strip it down myself and have a lookie

DSBC-R arrived....




I've decided to hold back the plans for 400bhp just now and get it all runing with the current fueling (uprated pump, standard FPR and 440cc injectors) so maybe 340bhp for now. I'll look into a track friendly fueiling setup with room for E85 once its running. 700ish cc injectors, parallel rails, FPR, swirl pot with external pump etc.

I think everything is covered. Just hope it all comes together

new engine is in.... and just about ready to run.

Rolled the rear arches too... not the neatest of jobs so will need to paint the insides of them.

Old engine ready to be karted home and stripped/maybe rebuilt




Will have the old IHI VF24 turbo and one of my spare sumps up for sale soon too
