Anyway the car wont be ready, I still need to swap in the new drive shafts, re-do the surge tank system and find out what the annoying miss above 4000 rpm is (it's not the Mallory) I took it off and it's still there.  I'm putting my energy into the H22a hatch at the moment as i need another car on the road, having one car between us sucks. | |

Location: Cambridge | what changes do you have to make with your surge tank?? can you draw up a simple plan of your old setup vs new setup?? heres a pic of what i thought i was going to do:  but ive since found out that i cant keep the fuel return stock, it has to go back to the surge tank, and will return to the fuel tank through the surge tank overflow. leaving the fuel return stock and not to the surge tank apparently means the surge tank will end up pressurised. thats what i was told by the guys at speedfactor anyway |

Location: Auckland | Yeah here's my plan, the low pressure pump can either be the stock intank or an external pump it doesn't matter the principle is still the same. As long as you surge tank is not in between you main pump and your engine/fpr there will be no pressure build up. There can only be pressure build up when there is a flow restriction, i.e the FPR. The pump is trying to push a given amount through a small hole so there is a pressure increase. In the below image ther eis fuel moving through all the lines but the only lines that are truely pressurised are the ones between the main pump and the engine/fpr.  |

Location: Cambridge | yeah i just thought the fpr adjusted the pressure to what you wanted it to be when it gets to the injectors, im pretty sure my fuel feed goes to the FPR then from the FPR to the fuel rail, oh hang on.. now that i think about it thats the return line off the fuel rail i think |

Location: Auckland | I had such a great time today, finally there was a break in the weather and i did a few jobs i needed to do on the CRX and then went for a big long drive. I took out the old drive shafts and re-installed EF6 ones (I accidentally bought EG shafts last time and of course they were too long) All that time I thought i'd screwed my LSD at the track it was the CV's binding up. It's perfect now with the proper length axels, problem solved!! I also reinstalled the 3" dump pipe and went for a blast out to Kumeu and up to Albany via SH16 down albany heights road and back down the motorway. Shit it was good, having the open pipe has made a huge difference, the random misfire still happens at certain rpm levels and throttle positions but no where near as bad and over all it is running a lot better, especially in the upper rev range. It now pulls cleanly to the red line with out any hesitation and sounds totally mental at 7000rpm with the open pipe, and it blows big loud flames off the throttle on over run The new brakes are awsome now that they are bedded in, holy shit it can stop. I tried them out on a full on emergency stop on the offramp which comes off the Port bypass exit form the motorway (where you pull off at Grafton Gully Road and stop at the lights) It went from 100k's to stopped so fast my face nearly came off, the bias is excellent, it never locks the rears and doesn't dive around at all either. Stoked with them. Got them nice and hot and smelly on SH16 too :wink: If the weather is good in the morning I'm driving out to Waiuku so I'll get some pics and vids of silly antics and ill behaviour. I love this car. |

Location: Auckland | Look what I had a quick tussle with today I pulled in behind him at the Drury BP stop and we had a bit of a squirt up the on ramp, damn it sounded good, I mad sure my window was down so I could listen and it was still audible over the 3" dump right out my window! Same guy that owns the Enzo I'm pretty sure.  I took it out to my parents house in the country by Waiuku to let my dad and brother have a cane around, one of the neighbours came out onto the road to have a winge about the noise and found my 57 yerar old dad at the wheel ha ha, bloody boy racers.  |

It was one of those oppurtunities I just could't miss. He knew it too because I'd just had a chat to him at the gassy and he was looking at my car and smiling as if to say what in God's good name is that awful thing. | |
