i get all my cams done at kelford camtech allways have allways will yet too get a bad one and he sure knows how to grind and surface harden a cam .intercooler was $206 to my door i could of got one cheaper but my funds were in paypal so it was a case of use the people who actually have paypal in NZ which is not many .yes immortality i think the big old T70 is the next purchase after i pay stocky for his big injectors this week should only leave me with turbo and some pipe work etc and the few silly things bit of fuel hose and some tbar clamps for cooler pipes etc and my surge tank if the guy ever gets back to me about postage found a good one on trademe but they dont take paypal

[immortality]

hey mate,

how you going to power the external fuel pump?

[delcowizzid]

i just bought 5 metres of 30 amp power cable and are going to run it to the rear in the side of the boot.ive wired on duel relays one for the intank pump and one for the new external ill take the wire that normally feeds the internal and use it too trigger the 2 relays and run new feeds too both the pumps so i know both have battery voltage at idle .ive checked near new jappas before and found a dismal 10-11 volts at the pump so ill be trying for a solid 13.9-14 V at the pump at idle

[delcowizzid]

well i braved the cold .pretty much have the pump wiring run just need to get it through the firewall i couldnt feel my fingers so made it hard to feed wire through the hole i made in the clutch cable grommet. still tossing up weather to run the pump and surge in the side panel or in the spare tire well or just in the back on the base of the floor in full view if the surge is short enough i can fit both in the spare tire well easy as.

My mate has a surge tank in the boot of his car, bit noisey and fumey.. things to concider

[delcowizzid]

shuldbe ok with the pumps we are running

damn right. once the engine is on song you don't need a stereo

just paid for my surge tank and pump bracket

[delcowizzid]

man i still dont have a surge yet.so you got the pump on the way should be here fast as mine was

[Matt_vp]

Its hard to find somewhere to put a surge tank in a wagon, thats why i havent put one in yet since i dont want it inside the car. Ill be interested in where u put yours and the results.
Matt

[delcowizzid]

i think theres room in behind the factory speaker grill in the rear if the tank is skinny enough i could get an under car tank but they are so small doesnt worry me if its right smack bang in the middle of the boot floor i just wish i had my surge now . have power cable all the way to the fuse box have a spare clip on fuse segment from another fusebox i raided for parts ages ago ready too go on .its lucky i got 5 metres of cable it just reaches i thought it would be enough to do to the pumps as well but nope shes a long old bus off to dicksmiths for another couple of metres at least i reckon and then if its a good day i might wire them in and get the intank running off it allready so when i get my surge i can just wire do some plumbing and slap in the relay for pump 2

[delcowizzid]

well finally found someone nice enough to send me a surge to newzealand without it costing an arm and a leg thanks to MR_stuart on ebay hes the man Fuel Surge Tank For Mazda RX7 Rotary RX3 RX4 R100 - eBay Other Performance Parts, Performance Parts, Car Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 14-Oct-09 00:23:35 AEDST) obviously i didnt get one with rotary on it LOL he does have them with VL turbo on though or could of custom engraved one for me but i dont have time for that i want it in allready.hopefully this time next week i should have my pump and surge in and working found some T-bar hose clamps for $3.50 each nearly cheaper than a normal hose clamp LOL

[delcowizzid]

woot more parts on the way cheap as $35 in blue
