Cars now back home, taxed, MOTd and insured  God, Ive missed the burble of the SR20  Despite the engine running absolutly sweet at idle and on cruise, its very hesitant when moving the throttle due to all the changes that have been made during the rebuild, so it drives like a pig. Ive booked the car in to Dyno Demon in Neston on Saturday morning - they are going to do a low load map - up to about 4000rpm with no boost to make the car a bit smoother and make the run in period a little easier

The timing is only an issue because of the Power FC - you set the ignition timing to that, rather than XXdeg BTDC. It has been getting driven, there aer nearly 100 miles on it now, but out in it last night, it sprung a leak  Was the first tiem its really got up to full temp, and its dripping a bit of oil, so its gonna have to go back in to find out where its coming from.... Other than that, I was quiet busy last night... Washed and polished it, plumbed back in, oil pressure gauge, oil temp gauge, EGT gauge, fixed the headlight that was bodged for the MOT, fixed the turbo timer (Loose wire) and fixed the illumination for boost gauge

Finally the parts Ive been waiting on from the states turned up, and managed to get them fitted. Ive fitted some new oil spray bars, a new rocker cover gasket, and some new rocker cover gromets and washers (You wouldnt belive how hard these where to get hold of  ) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v247/StuyMac/20112007.jpg) My Electric fans / controller has also arrived... ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v247/StuyMac/20112007002.jpg) All she needs now is another oil change to get rid of the crap running in stuff, and get some quality oil in there, and then it can be mapped up
