Stu what number are you

Can you fit the elec saftey stuff???

Interested myself

31 Tony - you need glasses if you can read that

Hilly fitted the cut off for me - opted for an electrical one this year to try and avoid seized cables. Manual ones are pretty straight forward, there is plenty of info how to wire them up on the net

...stuff got the manual kill switch somewhere from the Silvia...

All loaded up and ready for an early start in the morning to get to Cadwell...

have a goodun matey

Right, decided that good as the Mugen Exhaust is, it is just to quiet, it is also quite weighty due to the "Twin Loop" design, so Ive decided to replace it, along with the heavy cast 4-2-1 manifold.

Old Mugen exhaust



New Exhaust - Fujitsubo Power Getter



Japspeed 4-1 stainless manifold

Sweet

What gains can you expect from it matey

About 5bhp with the exhaust and manifold

It will also shave another 10kgs off the car though

Now all fitted

Piccys

Very, very nice mate, keep it shining!!

What racing league/car club do you race in?

The club I race with is the Classic Touring Car Club, and we race in a BARC championship.

Im in class F due to list 1b tyres and not running additional spiolers and the car having the original engine.

Looks good that chewy

More weight has been lost in preperation for Thruxton...

Inner boot skin has been cut out, and frame drilled...



Charcoal cannister has been removed...



PAS removed, inc pump, cast brackets, fluid reservoir and hoses...



I hope this has saved another 10-15kgs, plus it has given the car a bit more feel through the steering, and made a few more bhp from not having to drive the PAS pump 8)

Can you run a high octane fuel or does it have to be 95 97?

Can run whatever fuel you like matey - I generally use Optimax.

To get the most out of a race fuel ie 105RON the car needs to be mapped with extra advance on the ignition timing - only problem then is thats all it will run on, and race fuel is £3+/litre

Might get a few BHP from it, but a turbo'd car would get more - the starion makes 100bhp more on race fuel
