Hi. Things sure are a little quiet round here lately. Anyway, i'm wondering if anyone has an air/fuel ratio gauge in their car. If so is it running from the...

Hi I saw some pics of a blow through SU type turbo setup on turbobricks that i think Anthony Hyde posted? I am curious on how this setup would work and preform...
shouldnt be much different to a strommie. Easy way would be to put whole lot in a box pressurised by the boost and raise fuel pressure in line with boost ( use...
Paul Common method with blow-through carb setups is to pressurise the float chamber with a line from ahead of the carb. That way the relative pressure between...
Thanks for the input. It's been driving me crazy asking around at Autobarn and the like and nobody having a clue what narrow band even means. I called MoTeC...

the 4 wire sensor from a 300ZX-TT is a good one to have. people like SSS or just jap will sell you one cheaply as they come on the cast manifold attached to...
Unlike 140/164, 240's use a small conventional bush in the front of the trailing arms, and the larger rear one is also pretty conventional but the voided type,...
