I've just been reading the ANDRA Sport Compact rule book (Section 10.11, p83) and it says that a 4 point harness must be used on "Sedans quicker than 11.99 (1/4mile) ... or quicker than 110mph (176kph)."

I get lost as to which class my car qualifies as, so does this rule apply to me? I hope to run a mid to high 12 which i think would be just over 110mph.

cheers

Neil

I you need to get one..... get the type whereby the 2 front mounting bolts replace the existing bolts for your 3 point. They are a ringbolt and you can retain your 3point harness and the 4 point clips on over the top. you canmount the rears on the parcel shelf with reinforcing plates under. If you'r that short of cash....just put in the mounting bolts and i'll lend you a harness

Thanks for the offer Jay, i'll see what i can find out and let you know. The installation was the cost that was worrying me a bit but if you can replace a couple of the standard bolts that would be much easier. Any idea how much will an ANDRA-approved 4pt harness costs?

Ideally the rears should be set so that the angle of the belts stretching back from your shoulders to the rear mount points is no more than 10 degres from horizontal but up to 45 degrees is acceptable. The biger the angle ...the less effective the restraint

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
