hmmmm just read that thread... seems it would suit something like my car if there were enough room in the engine bay and not a road car... but seeing as u said u wanted to use it for track work it would be a good idea... however it looks like it may be quite costly and there for not really applicablet to u.

My tacho is giving me the correct rmp. I didn't have to change anything.. just wired the SR ecu to the same tacho out wire that the RB ran.. IT worked sweet!

I'll be doing a little stereo system install in mine soon i think...

the tach looks like its reading ok but actually you will see its reading low.

congrats cc its time to move on to a different project for me I'm glad the car is going to someone who will appreciate the hard work gone into it. its a great car but the missus was complaining about whip lash etc.

hmm the laurel arrives in a week or so :)

I have an SR cef too

How much did you pay if you don't mind me asking?

my god that would be a beast, engine sits so far back in the engine bay you could almost consider it a mid engined car!

im guessin' its not too shabby in the handling dept?

Thanks Steve I do appreciate it.

On Sunday when we rolled into Sydney I made my mate take it to the car wash.. Washed the bugger down (tried to miss the brakes with the water haha).

Monday spent ALL day.. from about 8am-12am working on it. Ripped the door trims off and prepsol'ed off all the damn glue on the doors. Started to stick my own sound deadener on. I think it was serenity max and a tiny bit of stinger roadkill.

Woke up Tue 6:30 went to work.

Got home as soon as possible 6pm-12am working on it for the stereo - woke up Wed 6:30am now im at work again.. I can..t....kee..p...do..inn.g....th..iiii...s..

mind you I've found 'Recharge by Sprite' a great drink - 66mg of caffeine + guarana :)

I will post pics up and try to write a little how-to to do the install - at the moment I'm not on the pc AT ALL cos working on the car. Will upload pics tonite.

Ahh bugger.. I haven't really looked that hard at it.. How low was it reading?

When the correct tacho shows 2k the dash tacho shows 1k.

When the correct tacho shows 3k the dash tacho shows 1.8k

When the correct tacho shows 4k the dash tacho shows 2.5k (bit more)

Those are approx. and from memory - it's basically a thousand lower at 2000rpm then as the revs increase it becomes more off and off. I think redline according to the dash tacho is about 4-5k ... again im guessing but yea somethin like that.

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
