AAaarrgghhh... I typed out a nice long reply, and as you'd expect, my computer went the way of the goldfish before I sent it... I'll see if I can remember some of the stuff. First, I made a mistake previously - the actualy throttle blade on 4agze is closer to 50mm, not 60. It's tiny! 160kw at the wheels is quite doable, I'm hoping to get me a little bit more than that once I replace a few bits and pieces. Small port RWD manifold doesn't exist - you'll have to chop up a normal 100kw manifold instead. Mine cost me $100 for the manifold, and $60 for the welding etc. (becuase I wanted to get a few other things done at the same time) The later haltech's will take it alright, because they've got a 'reluctor adapter' (thing that converts sine wave to square) on board, whereas the earlier ones (like mine) do no. Instead of buying the 'reluctor adapter', I got a custom hall effect trigger made to fit in place of the standard one, works well. I used the standard pump/thermostat on mine, because the blower is now gone there was plenty of room to cut the pipe that runs down the side of the engine and put the normal GZE thermostat housing straight on the end of it. I also welded up a bracket to mount the alternator there, as it was smack in the way of the swaybar on the other side down low. Another suggestion I'd give is not to use a t50 box if you intend to enjoy your creation with any force. Sometime this week I've got to replace mine with a W box, as I ripped all the teeth off 2nd gear, and that was without really trying either (e.g. slicks/drop the clutch), just putting my foot down and crunch. To its credit, I drove it home from sydney to melbourne like that, and have driven it for a couple of weeks since, and its still going... [Report message to a moderator]
