hey Huddy you got no cat on the car???

I have the 3" through pipe for mine in the garage since I got a hiflow cat fitted and was informed that without a cat I can look forward to 20K EPA fines?

That true or have I been grossely misinformed?

Hey Huddy

Did ya end up putting that boost gauge in i gave ya? If ya did what does the boost curve look like now? Did tuning the HKS boost controller the other night help at all?

Oh yea, Crazy Ceff, its making big power!

lol cheers lindo :P

fitted up the gauge :):D looks sweet THANKS AGAIN muchly appreciated, relocated the boost controller to where the ash tray was, now looks at home.

havent driven the car yet, waiting until terry gets back from o/s, then i'll take it to kansai for them to suss... but from people who've seen it and heard it... they think 'thrust bearing' and it definitely doesnt feel right lol...

hopefully couple weeks and she'll be sweet again :)

No Worries Huddy, always willing to help out a fellow Ceff owner. I think your doing the right thing by leaving it for a bit, the clutch did feel a bit strange...

Look forward to seeing it out drifting again :(

If ya ever need any more help with it, gimme a call.

    • What are you planning to do specifically?  I would be very surprised if you need to learn any math for these 'few builds' you have planned for the future.
    • I transferred from full time service to Army Reserve, so I still have access, work has been super keen to get me in to work in the OPS realm, so just turning up to use the gym......and ovens, isn't causing any issues, apart from me needing to keep on telling them that I won't be doing any reserve days until I get my joint in Goulburn sorted  Basically I can now work whenever I want, for how long I want now, and it's all tax free Next time we have some fires or floods you might see me covered in mud, or cutting sick in some plant equipment cleaning up, the Reserves love getting in the news, LOL
    • Final finish outcome of 80°c was typical to the pics, I've turned the oven down to 50°c and will pick them up after the gym tomorrow  The before and after difference was amazing, the wrinkle paint has covered all of the casting marks completely It did take a couple of hours to key it all and get in all of the crevices, but, for me it was time well spent for the final outcome, but I have all the time in the world to do it at the moment  Ended up with 4 coats, each sprayed at different angles to get optimal coverage and thickness As for the fixtures and intake box thingo that hasn't made it, the supplier is apparently posting the fixtures, and, are now sending a different CAI that is in stock The replacement CAI is actually better than what I originally ordered, but will require a pod filter that locates under the front bar, still serviceable, but it basically removes the whole OEM filter box and ducts into the front bar, so filter cleaning will require ramps and the removal of some front bar undertray, not a war stopper, just some ramps and an additional 10 minutes work every few months From looking at it it is made from alloy pipe from the throttle body, through the CAI hole in the rad support, then right turning under the bar, luckily the wrinkle paint was on special and I got 2 cans for $30ish, so the alloy will get the same wrinkle treatment as the intake manifold, hopefully it turns up soon, either way, the car will be getting booked in soon, if the parts aren't here, I'll just get MX5 Mania to " make it work"  
    • I'm so glad base security is so high. I see they stopped some random codger from being able to just wander in off the street... 😛   PS, intake looks good!
    • So far so good, another hour and their done
