Just finished reading both of your 32 build threads and I must say that I'm quite impressed !!!!

Loving the attention to detail throughout the whole build process.

Any updates with the 32 track car?

Cheers Josh. Always good to hear feedback mate. Hope you enjoyed reading through :thumbsup:

did the haltec get hooked up???

is the TI exhaust on... WHY DO WE NOT HAVE A VIDEO OF THE NOISE

Haha no where near that stage Glyn!! This build is not going to be anywhere near the speed of [1 OF A] (unfortunately).

Tbh I have not done anything with it for probably 8 months or so. Life got crazy and this build got put on the back burner.

But, very very happy to say, things are happening again...slowly.

Ants has been especially kind in helping me out with some nice near new quality parts

Well, it all depends on how you want the car to run, power and torque-wise i suppose.

Im sure there will be people on here with plenty of knowledge. Might even pay to do a search, Im sure there are a few threads on cam choice.

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
