Ahh cool. Then let the shakedown begin! Great project. Will have a gander at your blog, not read it for a while.

Hmm.. Do you know how much downforce that thing is going to provide on track? Sometimes too much downforce can have a negative affect to what your are trying to achieve, as it will alter the handling and traction characteristics or cause the front tyres to lift resulting in a loss of traction. Is it adjustable? Quick google to explain better: You have to be careful when exerting downforce on a car so as not to throw off its overall balance. For example, in a front-wheel-drive car, having some downforce on the rear wheels is necessary to stabilize the portion of the car that, for the most p

I used a magnetic sump plug and I had loads of filings.

A few on TGTT have applied this method too and they have no problems. Do which ever you are comfortable with mate. Both methods basically work, but one method brings better results

I used the Motoman method...search it. Basically he says the first 20 miles are crucial for running it in. I was reving to almost 6,000rpm within the first 20 miles Oil and filter change was after the first 20 miles also to get rid of all the metal filings, it is a good read and worked for me. Here is the link actually: http://www.mototuneusa.com/break_in_secrets.htm

11 sec QTR. This is a 5EFTE thou and set off from 2nd gear.

I know of 3 Starlets that have run 11's. One was in Malta (might not count) and 2 in Aus. EP's are definately not setup for drag, but they are capable of putting down great times for a FF. But this ofcourse = BIG £$£ AND knowledge. When it comes to high powered FWD and RWD, there is no comparison really. RWD FTW. I am running 275hp now and I am a QTR noob! I have run at York before and the strip is a disgrace. I get better grip on the road. I may go to Shakespear and give this QTR mile stuff another try and try put down some decent times. Got a few things to sort out yet t

Doubt a tuner would lend you one, but you get get them from www.greenline.jp I think...maybe also www.rhdjapan.com Some Ebay members I think sell them too.

What sort of work are you wanting to get done? If it is general service items, you will not have any issues, but if you want actuators fitting, boost controllers fitted extra, then try: www.theracingline.co.uk www.autofixed.co.uk

This a dedicated track car then or are you going to be using it on the road too?

**TAKEN FROM TGTT.Com for anyone interested** OK guys, Instead of the meet at York Race Way which I posted HERE it has been suggested that we actually go to the Elvington RWYB day on 23rd March 2008. The benefits of this are: - It is used for TOTB so the strip is likely to be better condition than York Race Way. Actually, I've have been before and it is better. - It is a RWYB day ONLY, so not messing around watching Beetles, just runs all day. - It is usually not very busy, so you get a lot of runs in through the day. - It is right next door to York Race Way anyway. Prices are usually

Looking good guys. Is this plate legal? Was just wondering for when I cut my bumper.

Read all your blog mate, very impressive stuff. Need to get my car weighed too. -
Your car is meant to run on higher octane fuel as it is a Japanese import, so you will notice a difference.

Will be adding you to MSN for the pictures soon!
