Long time between updates...

Raced at wakefield in June - car felt really off power.

I even had a swift Gti pull away from me down the straight.

I only managed a 1.14.3, had brand new semi's too

so took the car to a mates place after it, had 105-110 psi across all four.

after some research and talking to folks, got it to monaco performance just near newcastle - turns out the timing belt had skipped a tooth on the exh cam and put the timing all out. good job it is a non-interference motor. got it all fixed, oil change too, new plugs, back upto 170psi

car feels good once again so have entered a supersprint 2 weeks time just as more a practice run before MRA in october

now I want 1.13's!!

clappa - already done! according to natsift I am 3 seconds quicker - and according to his hand timing he is 15 seconds quicker LOL

ryan - no chance unless I have turbro powahs

Update!!!!

Best now is a 1.12.8 at wakie and 1.06.1 at SMP south.

Latest mods are straight through exhaust (no muffler!) and v70a semi slicks.

Bought a second hand adaptronic ecu, loom and map sensor too.

Just dropped car off at DVS tuning to fit it now.

Did a base run before ecu and got 77.6rwkw. When I got the exhaust mod done at mx5 mania it made 92rwkw. Yep, manias reads mega high!!!!

First race for the year is jan 27 for MRA in mx5 challenge

    • Lol.. but then.. always come back to a JDM..
    • Glad to hear. If possible, get your tuner to check air's to make sure everything is still where it should be.
    • The problem with FB/Insta/Reddit etc comments relating to cars is simple. You get to ask a question once, and get one round of replies. For things that can actually be answered in a few lines of text, once, it's fine. After 6 hours, your original question is lost to the void. There are no follow ups, additional questions, anything. No project car is ever such a simple list of questions to ask. You need discussion.
    • Welcome.  Here's what I have noticed about forum vs FB..... FB; seems to be wallet racing, and the same few questions asked over and over. There *may* be some groups that are closer knit, but most have changed for the worse. SAU; unfortunately, no longer in its glory days. But....genuine people with similar interests. Not all about how much you spent and saying you dont have enough power. Sooooooo much knowledge available. Have personally seen people post up about literally topics I made myself, asking on FB like no one has done it before. Most has been done, and most of that is here.   If you ever feel like just general chatting theres the wasteland.  Other interests are also generally covered in other areas of the forum. Hope you enjoy hanging around. We would love to have you.   P.s. nice 32 😀 
    • Nah, natural progression is euro. Because, we're all gluttons for punishment. And, what's more punishing than euro?
