Got any runs of the 3 buddy drift with monkhouse and the blue ute?

That was the highlight of the weekend, actually was some of the best drifting I have seen. Looked mint

none of my cameras captured that run sadly... someone filmed from the crowd tho.. can be found on my page if you have a look.

Not sure if I missed it but how did you hook up the accusump - did you use the electronic solenoid or just hook it up directly so it's constantly filling and discharging?

You put on an amazing smoke show at wtac btw!!

Cheers dude!

accusump is as easy as possible.. no elec solenoid,. the sump is sitting behind the drivers seat and handle is accessable from the seat, i have it covered as per cams regs. Braided line goes down the transtunnel and hooks up to a T piece on the oil relocator kit in between the block and the oil filter

when motor is off the valve is off so it has a storage of oil for when i start it next time, when i start it i open the valve all the way, start it, let it warm up and bleed any air out then close the valve to half and thats where it stays for operation. the reason behind the half valve position is because we found that it was discharging too quickly fully open and then taking too long to fill up.

Every set up is different.. I did some data logging with valve set in different positions before I found the best one that worked for me.

Ill get some pics up soon of it.. Enclosure is nothing fancy lol just a rolled sheet of alloy

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
