Raven Posted February 13, 2011 Report Posted February 13, 2011 Just cuirious as to how you get away with running a high mount setup legally? Quote
Trev Posted February 13, 2011 Report Posted February 13, 2011 went and bought 510 litres of e85 today so should last me and a mate at least a month i hope, also bought most of the parts i need to build my gearbox. standard 1jz a340 boxes have 7 clutches in first, 5 clutches in second and 4 clutches on third, my new box will have 7 in first, 6 in second and 5 in third. which with the mv's stage 1.5 valve body makes it pretty much the same as there 500rwkw box. Â What was the price of the clutch/rebuild kit? Â Just cuirious as to how you get away with running a high mount setup legally? Â High mounts aren't illegal. Quote
sleepercorty Posted February 13, 2011 Author Report Posted February 13, 2011 the parts i need retail for around $600 (didnt cost me that much as i sell parts for a living), this includes thinner steels aswell so you can fit the extra clutches. so add a mv's stage 1.5 valve body onto that which i think retail for $375 and you have a very strong box for around the $1000 if your able to build it yourself.

sleepercorty Posted February 16, 2011 Author Report Posted February 16, 2011 spent the last couple of days trying to get 1600cc injectors to have some form of idle quality, and its not the easiest of tasks lol but its getting there, microtech with 3 bar map sensor needs more tuning points damnit. when we get it sorted can bring on the e85 Quote

Â OT: when I was younger I used to go and do laps of Ippy and there used to be this fat heffa that drove a Daewoo (well something along those lines) with a 'HONK FOR HEADIES' sticker on the back window, one night I seen the car and looked over and seen a guy driving it so me and my mate drove beside him on the horn, dude just kept looking straight and drove on through.
