Well she is finally up and running smoothly. Had a lovely trip to WIndsor Exhaust yesterday with no fuel pressure. Turned out we needed a relay for the fuel pump, cos it drew too much current when you revved it. But anyway we got it home and fixed it all up, so now she is running scchhwwweeeeeeeeeeett.
Some pics of how it is now!

Well bit of an update, took the beast to Stewart Wilkins Motorsport, turns out the carbs were actually different and not a matching pair, as they should be, and couldn't be tuned properly. So i went on the hunt for another pair of DHLA40's, and found some on eBay. Just purchased them and should be sent on Monday hopefully! Fingers crossed, the car should be back running better than ever by next weekend. Was planning on going for a run with the SDC boys at WSID this Wednesday but i guess i'll have to spectate

Anyway here's a couple of pics from Lugarno show last weekend.

Well i've had a few electrical teething problems this last week, but now i hope i've sorted them all out, and should be sweet again.
Got bored and bought some chrome ram tubes for the carbs, don't look too bad
And now im starting my collection of parts to build my front end up.
S13 brakes should be here next week. Then im gunna order some Cusco camber tops and strut brace from AJPS which take a month to come in, which will give me time to save for the otomoto coilover sleeves, then get some inserts and shorten the struts to suit.
I want to go low and fairly stiff, but still be driveable as a daily, so does anyone know the kg/mm rate i would be after for the springs?

Yeah mate get your p's then get out to some cruises, the more 1200's the better!

Well i got the new Dello's put on today by SWMotorsport, and they re-jetted, tuned, etc. and with timing set at best, and no air filters it ran 67.2hp on the dyno.
Turns out the centrifugal advance in the E15 dizzies is totally wrong for the a15 so they have to reset that tomorrow,
and im getting some unifilter pods for my trumpets, cos with the k&n pods on the custom flat mount it loses 6hp! Interesting fact for others.
So im hoping when I get the car back it'll go like a rocket-ship.

Well bit of an update, im slowly putting together the pieces to get the coilovers going for the front end. So far got the adjustable camber tops, and new s13 CA brakes, and bare strut ready to be cut down. With xmas and rego coming up haven't been able to get the inserts or otomoto coilover kit but in the new year im keen on slammin' this puppy.

As a side got a pair of 13x8 +-0 offset SSR mkII in good nick, fit the standard front end like a glove. They had a few imperfections and gutter bash so i took them to work on the wheel balancer and after 4hrs got them to a smik look. Just have to hand polish them to bring up maxxxx shine and then get some 175/50 tyres im thinkin.
Orange centres are in alright nick but could do with a spruce up, do you guys rekon i should keep them or do them a bright red?

Anyway here's some porn,
