Ah. Right. I can't read, I forgot :P

Who knows hey? I guess in a sense it would emulate braided lines because zip ties are solid so they don't "stretch" like rubber lines do, but still...

I guess if you can keep it from pinging then you can run whatever compression...

Hmm, interesting. Read something in the newspaper today (don't know if it was today's newspaper though), and it said that Chris wasn't driving Monte Carlo, but he was driving the other 15 rounds after that...

... and "braided lines" (refer to thread awhile ago where some people had the idea that putting zip ties along the entire length of their brake lines would be a cheap and easy way of getting braided lines...)

But then again mumblezzz is a freak of nature :P

I'll be there, hopefully competing, or rather - just having a go :P Unless of course we get so many newbies that we run out of spots, then I'll probably give up my spot for someone else to have a go...

They went from an Evo 8 to a WRX??? What's wrong with them!!! :P

I've just noticed that this is supposed to happen on the 5th of February, any info? Sup regs? Anything? When do entries open and close?

That's some nice fabrication there :P

No they don't. Where else would you be able to get FWD cars with RWD offset rims (that obviously don't even come close to having their tyres fit under their guards), "Wiralution" (Proton Wira with evo gear), "Satrialution" (Satria with evo gear), neon lights galore, and all sorts of other stuff that really should be rather illegal...

I don't think Toyota ever officially made a turbo 4A engine.

Well, technically it should be an SE111 :P

No need helmet. If you have paid for your licence you should be able to use the receipt as proof that you've already got your licence.

Nice yellow :P

I think AE111 is a 20V 4AGE originally. I think.

See thread, start on page 2. Look out for posts by edgar_raphael, he posts some pics as well. It's basically an AE111 Corolla, with full ST215 GT4 gear, including the 4WD system and the dash and instrumentation... Cool :P

And if your fuel tank is under your floor, make sure you don't drill through that either!!!

There are more pics of that car floating around, that's actually in Malaysia believe it or not...

Unfortunately I don't have any photos of my setup (I don't think), or I'd post some up. But if you want to have a look you're welcome to.

You'll never get wood to pass an engineers peace of mind. I don't really know what you're talking about in terms of your "washers". Yes you do have to bolt your box down, how else were you intending to keep it where it is? Tie it down with shoelaces? No, the plastic isn't very strong, that's why you have to spread the load somehow, you don't want to just have the bolts go through the plastic alone because in the event of an accident it'll just rip the plastic to shreads. To solve that problem I got a piece of aluminium and put it in the box, and passed the bolts through those. That way, the plastic box is sandwiched between the plate and the boot floor, which makes it a hell of a lot stronger. Then to mount the battery brace, I passed it through the plate too. So it isn't the plastic box holding the battery down, it's the aluminium plate.

Oh wow, you like to keep us busy don't you? :P

4 x high tensile grade 8.8 bolts, M6 should be enough. You'll need to make a metal plate that sits in the box, and then have the bolts go through that. You don't want the box to just be held with the plastic. You'll also want to pass your battery holder through this plate. I used a piece of 3mm aluminium. Under the floor, get some mudguard washers to spread the load.

Interesting... I've never used any of them, so can't really comment... Oh wait, yes I have. But I just got some Supercheap brand thing and it seemed to do something (don't know if it was something useful), and my water pump still works...

Yes, or do what Wayno did on Rob's Bluedwarf :P
