So it's been quite a while since I really posted anything with this car. Well such a long time that most people have probably forgotten about it.

But here goes. last fall I completed the engine and ran it for a week or 2 before winter hit. So it got parked for the duration of the winter. However I managed to do quite a bit of work on the rusted out floorboards and finalize some issues.

But here it is as it stands now.

BTW the mechanical fan is only there as a substitute for a few days :)

This is all I have at the moment. I'll try and get some more updates as the car gets a better tune.

Update

Small acceleration video during a tuning session. The tune is getting quite good. Still need to iron out a few things but all in all 12 psi is strong. Time to get the crank up these new injectors :D

It's actually a Koyo radiator setup for an SR20

It's the dreaded XS power one ( what a pain in the ass )... This summer a buddy of mine is coming over from Finland and I'm going to have him bring along a proper manifold.

How do you embed Youtube vids on this forum anyhow ?

Most of the vbullitins i've used autodetect the youtube links.
