Yes

* waits for Eiji to respond * aka Stinkypoo

about 4 weeks ago I went and watched a Texi on Sutton Rd for an hour or so and then right next to it a Hill climb event was going on.

Both were awesome

Lol,

The MG Car Club of Canberra run four every year. I go to everyone that I can make. There is one coming up this month, which I'll start a thread about for your information.

I have been the SAU TEXI both here in Canberra and in Sydney. The local one is great because it's local, unfortunately they can no longer use the maneuvering area. The Sydney one is great because it's so big and not as tight on restrictions. Reece sets up a well flowing course but I wouldn't recommend getting to serious about it, even if it is a competition.

It would be great if we could run something like this in Canberra but there are too many restrictions. This is something we all need to voice to our local government people in a constructive way.

Oh really? What do they use then, just the skid pan?

That was our problem too, and hence why we only used the back track at the last one. Which made it a hillclimb then, not a khana lol

I think last time SAU used the "Highway" circuit type thing at the back and the wet skidpan.

MGCCC can get the maneuvering area because of some connections they have to the facility. They also are not allowed to run on certain parts of the pad.

Sydney isn't far away. I have been and will probably go again, but not as much as I previously did. I'm getting old and work interferes with fun.

      So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.

      My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?

      What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
