After further inspection I think it may be the wheel bearings are loose (slight klunk klunk when shake wheel at 12 and 6) I will let you know.

my coupe has develped a really bad shake at around 80kph. If I accelerate through it nothing but as I brake the front left starts to shudder really bad. I don't thinks its the brakes as I have loaded them up and driven in 2nd and not a hint of vibration. I have jacked up the front and all the suspension components feel tight (I shook the s$%#t out of it). I then noticed oil all over the spring and stut, if the shocky is out of oil could this couse such a bad shake/shudder.

There are few bike engine powered cars that do the sprints here.An OMS (I think it uses a hayabusa 1300) it is 400 kg and a Fisher fury it runs a decomped supercharged hayabusa 1300 it is 450kg (this car is amazing). with a cage I can't imagine a 1200 below 700kg these bike engines have the hp but do the have the torque.
A standard 1300 hayabusa has 102 pound foot is this enough for an extra 300kg?
How heavy are the z car minis?

Turn you disk dust covers into scoops. a bit of heat and a hammer and they turn out quite nice.

my cam is 280 inlet 276 exhaust .295'' lift . inlet opens 30 closes 70 exhaust opens 65 closes 31. clearance hot is .012'' on inlet and exhaust (all on my cam card). The cam grinder told me I can go down to .010''. curently running .011''. the timing is set 14deg about 1200rpm and is fully advanced at 3500rpm at 34 deg. no vacume advance.
I am not running as high a comp as you.

good luck.

All sorted it was the cas. Can't wait to race it now, with an extra 1500rpm and 25hp than when it had the miss. I now have more hp in the 4000 to 5500 range as well so it will be fun.

The turbo is runing 15.5 psi after 4300 with the rev limiter set at 7500.

nothing changes when it hits 6k, when in lower gears 1st and second it gets up to 7k as soon as it loads up 3rd, 4th and 5th the engine starts to break down.

like you said do as the dealer said it will be one thing at a time.
