Wed, 13 October 2004 11:11
Just got back from a much needed tune for the sprinter... Thanks to the man Dale (10sec_rx7) she made 208.1hp atw at only 13psi. I was more than happy to say the least. But close to the end of the tune my clutch master cyl line decided to melt because some fool forgot to pair it further from the exhaust housing (looks down.. oops) heh. Well you learn something new everyday as dale gave me a quick rundown on how to drive without a clutch and i was on my way (a good 40min drive on main roads) it was ok after I got the hang of the revs at which each gear drops in. Think ill just drive around like that for good.. save my left leg some effort nah braided lines are on the way.
Another note... Today was 38 degrees. And Observing my intake temps they were exceeding 70degrees C!... This thing really does come alive in winter. But I guess I really should sort out my air intake (battery to rear/boxed off filter) and get a slightly larger cooler. But all that can wait.
Thanks again goes to Dale, no doubt the man when it comes to your 4a's. Pics/readout soon.
