rorenapier Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Aaron - Change your harness point foryour right hand side strap to the mount on the rear arch, saves having 2 straps going through the same point.My car went through scrutineering over the weekend and my harnesses were deemed safe.For referance though - as per the 2010 MSA blue book, shoulder straps on harnesses are prefered to be 90 degrees horizontal, +/- 10 degrees, BUT anything up to 55 degrees below horizontal is acceptable.http://www.msauk.org/uploadedfiles/msa_for...or%20Safety.pdfPage 30 of the PDF or 189 for the actual documentEnough waffling from me, get it over to Knockhill asap next year, ill pop down if im not away sprinting Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AaronW Posted October 17, 2010 Author Share Posted October 17, 2010 thanks for the comments guysthe screamer is heat wrapped and i turned the pipe round and it gave itmore room.ill get 'the dentist' to map it.put canards on and sprayed the mirrors black as the leftmirrorwas a terrible spray job.Aaron Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AaronW Posted January 20, 2011 Author Share Posted January 20, 2011 UPDATE:well the car has not been used much,due to being off the road for 8 weeks waiting on a gearbox and other bits,..then a drunk woman smashing the windows with a baseball bat.first to be replaced was the windscreen with blue tint glasswhile i was fitting the aluminium civic rad where the botom of the screamer pipe sits is bang on with the top of the bottom rad hose,so i thought ,...itd be rude not to make it a side exit screamerthe screamer sounds so much better out the side,very raspy.ill get a video up once the rear window is sorted as i love the sound of the exhaust too,best ive heard on my starlets imo.next plans for the car is to buy decent tyres,bigger injectors, vf23 (from a mate), fpr, mappable ecu and a map at 1.5bar.then ill be concentrating on bars and braces inc. arb ect.once i get a chance to clean it ill put fresh pics up.Aaron Quote Link to post Share on other sites
