stu....you really need to get a proper sliding seat rail in...something like the bride setup. I don't want to have to twist myself into a pretzel like I had to in brad's car...

Just a quick question on scrutineering; My surge tank and fuel pump are in the boot and i haven't gotten around to sealing the boot from the cabin yet, will this be an issue?

And based on the comments about grabbing experienced sau'ers for pointers i'm assuming passengers are allowed?

I'd like to attend if the car is still in one piece after a GP day on thursday.

well...sadly the days of passenger happy laps are long gone due to insurance tigthening rules over the years. the guys who are running this day for us will provide instructors, and they allow some of the senior club members assist with instruction. So you are welcome to have instructors in the car but not just randoms.

also.....I guess evil-chris can confirm, but I am pretty sure an unsealed fuel system in the boot won't pass scruit (and I reckon any people running a track day and allow it are brave....) Imagine 40psi of fuel spraying around the cabin if a hose comes off. just seal it off, pretty easy with a sheet of thin ally.

Thanks mate,

I figured that would be the answer i got but just wanted to check.

It's on the list, unfortunately it is a very long one to get the car track ready for thursday let alone compliant to cams specs. I'll see how i go.

Great to hear Mr P. I'm bringing the Radical so we both can play silly old mens games. Lets both bolt on old tyres so we are on a level playing field. I have newies but I'll keep them for the P.I. nats.

A question I've been meaning to ask you for ages though,,,when you say the Z is a slot car,,,can you tell me which class of slot car it is?. Google that tiger.

Neil.

      The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
