farkin! bit big! you could photograph Tasmania from your balcony Troy.

its kinda like that...lol that is only part of it , another part doubles the 1300mm to 2600mm. its like waist high now from the floor..lol

took some other photos with them the other day,,,but its so amazing you cant tell how far away it is of a kite surfer. he was a few K's out at least

if your a lay person like myself, this is a good read, how a rotary engine works.

+1. Alot of people don't like the sound, I'm quite fond of pp/bp and turbo rotaries. Probably still to this day, a rotary is the fastest car I've been in...

Hmmm..

Cars making big ass clunking noises over bumps like the coilovers don't want to stay under the guards. All bolted up mint and tight too. Don't know wtf going on.

do u have adjustable camber arms? thats the noisiest component of my suspension

-D

I have nothing. It's actually like the coilover is about to fall out. Took the wheel off with Wayne earlier and all the bolts are tight. Shook the coilover and right at the top of the going it makes a knocking sound. I don't know if anything is hitting anywhere. But it wasn't making the noise yesterday

sounds like the bump stop needs replacing (if it even has one - some (like my old bilsteins) dont have bump stops)

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
