Twinky Posted June 9, 2011 Report Posted June 9, 2011 May I ask what series magna you got the dizzy from?? The ones i have found are the chopper blade type ones with the Hall effect sensors. Also how did you modify it to fit? The gear spins in the wrong direction, well that on the Hall one anyway. Quote
Mitch-12 Posted June 9, 2011 Author Report Posted June 9, 2011 dunno i found it at a wrecker we had a hall effect one we used on a vw trike this one is optical like rb25 ca sensor and i made it think it was a 4k dizzy modified the shaft and put 4k dizzy gear on and milled the oil pump drive on it too Quote

Rob 5000 Posted June 10, 2011 Report Posted June 10, 2011 hi mitch i lost my net connection for last 2 weeks. Looks like you have been busy. Me and pete going to winton on monday. Its strange when you think even your wiring loom is worth more than your car :) Quote
Mitch-12 Posted June 10, 2011 Author Report Posted June 10, 2011 (edited) haha my car owes me $200 the good stuff that should not be there thousands well actually most of it i have fabbed myself but with all my new motec and supercharged and stuff then will be a bit of dollars it's funny this ugly looking junk bucket with this cool stuff in it i like it also here are some pics of my new stuff this fuel cell wont be in much longer was to get me out of trouble last event my dash consists of 3 lights middle is alt light outside ones are 2 stage green and red green is shift on both left red is water solid on is over temp and flash on is low pressure, right red is oil solid on is surge flash on is big trouble stop this is my brake light switch on the clutch for flat shifts and leaving the line with a lower rev limit this is the fuel tank i am thinking of using for E85 or i have another cell i might use not sure yet AU V8 Supercar :) My watts link rear end i built myself works unreal the adjustment is amazing made this car really quick ask rob5000 And the super bodgy fuel tank that had to last 1 round of khanacross Edited June 10, 2011 by mitch-12 Quote
carbonboy Posted June 11, 2011 Report Posted June 11, 2011 it's funny this ugly looking junk bucket with this cool stuff in it i like it I like it too! :yes: Sometimes it doesnt matter if you spend more on your engine (for example) than the whole car is worth if you were to sell it. If you don't intend to sell it then it's irrelevant isnt it? :D Also, if you've got access to the good stuff, go nuts! :y: Lucky bugger lol Quote
altezzaclub Posted June 11, 2011 Report Posted June 11, 2011 I like the Watts linkage idea! ..and its always nice to see something fabricated at home working well rather than someone who can spend thousands buying something off the shelf. It looks like you have the center pivot on the chassis and the arms on the diff, the opposite of most Watts. Is that also the V8Supercar system?? What differeence to stock does it make, and what difference does adjusting it make?? Quote
Mitch-12 Posted June 11, 2011 Author Report Posted June 11, 2011 its the same as supercar arms pivoting on body and going to diff no comparison to stock it changes roll centre so you make make it understeer like all hellmove it down or oversteer like crazy move it up it is by far the best thing i have done to the car and i never plan on selling it :) Quote
Mitch-12 Posted June 11, 2011 Author Report Posted June 11, 2011 and with all the adjustment depending on what tyres and the track i can always have it predictable and how i like it = fast Quote
Mitch-12 Posted June 11, 2011 Author Report Posted June 11, 2011 (edited) Got some more pictures the amount of steering lock i have My custom steering arms stock arms thinking of mounting the motec here maybe :hmm: that is a dummy loom just a bulkhead loom from a supercar shift lights these are blindingly bright oil alarm light super bright Dummy engine with my 7k intake special dizzy need to sand the cap to finish it off and the ls1 leads that i am using I guess a motec dash would be cool old wiring loom i did when i was in primary school yucky!

Rob 5000 Posted June 12, 2011 Report Posted June 12, 2011 hey mitch i like the stuff you been doing. Pete and I reckon we should put shift lights in the track car. You know this could end up Australa's fastest KE70 and when I say fastest I mean around any race track not just a straight line although against any other 4k it might do that as well. Quote
Mitch-12 Posted June 12, 2011 Author Report Posted June 12, 2011 if i keep developing at the rate i am going that may well be possible in the next few years although i have another one I'm making a sports sedan but that wont really be a ke70 once it's a sports sedan haha i'm crazy Quote
Mitch-12 Posted June 14, 2011 Author Report Posted June 14, 2011 Got some more done today have some new pics :) pretty much where I'm at so far only some motec stuff and the supercharger being modified holding me up need to make some intercooler piping when i get my charger back then just get my engine loom finished up get my fuel system all done and its all systems go Quote
Mitch-12 Posted June 14, 2011 Author Report Posted June 14, 2011 Also starting to get the drift bug i might drift this haha dunno how it would go though Quote
