Re: FX Holden Race Car Project

@vlad - i have done a complete tear down, the block is empty. The only things i can find wrong are the fucked cylinder and some bearing wear on a few of the mains as well as the #6 rod end. I have always been concerned with oil in this engine after my oil pressure gauge was going to zero on the dyno...

Re: N13 Turbo - Round 2... Fight!

thats definitely a very odd one!

its not spinning the tyres at that point ? do you have a data log of the ecu to see if the speed spikes or something ?

Re: N13 Turbo - Round 2... Fight!

at the end of the day i guess it doesnt really matter what the spring is as long as its within spec of what you need.... for example, more coils in a spring will make it have more leverage over the load applied to it, so it would be softer than one with less turns. On the same token, thicker wire di...

Re: N13 Turbo - Round 2... Fight!

yeah thats probably a good idea, but unfortunately out of my coding ability - also for me when racing i use data logging on every run, so would need to use the serial comms for that. as for the testing, i see no reason why it couldnt work with your low psi ... even control from 5-10 would prove it d...

Re: N13 Turbo - Round 2... Fight!

ok so now the long story! probably like everyone, i've always wanted to do proper boost control with the delco, but sadly it just doesnt have the coding to do so. So totally un-related to this, when building the FX i got myself a vacuum pump from a Holden, and plumbed that into my brake booster, all...

Re: N13 Turbo - Round 2... Fight!

I’ll post more info later when I’m at a computer, I have made a pcb to do exactly this, uses a flex table to produce a pwm into an Arduino along with a map sensor and then a pid controller to control a high current output to drive the mac valve

Re: FX Holden Race Car Project

Thought i should post up a bit of an update on where im at as far as post racing changes/improvements etc First thing i wanted to do was to add a vent from the sump to the catch can, as i was getting a bit of oil out the dipstick tube, this was probably partially as the seal on them is not real flas...

Re: FX Holden Race Car Project

hahaha no its viking :) i did look at kings catalogue, but it basically tells you what you need for model xx car, doesn't have any info on dimensions of the actual spring ..... that said i have found QA1 - 8MB375 and Afco - A8SR375 which are 8 inch, 375lb springs, it appears these are a mustang conv...
