31 Tony - you need glasses if you can read that wink

Hilly fitted the cut off for me - opted for an electrical one this year to try and avoid seized cables. Manual ones are pretty straight forward, there is plenty of info how to wire them up on the net smile

...stuff got the manual kill switch somewhere from the Silvia...

Right, decided that good as the Mugen Exhaust is, it is just to quiet, it is also quite weighty due to the "Twin Loop" design, so Ive decided to replace it, along with the heavy cast 4-2-1 manifold.

The club I race with is the Classic Touring Car Club, and we race in a BARC championship.

Im in class F due to list 1b tyres and not running additional spiolers and the car having the original engine.

More weight has been lost in preperation for Thruxton...

Inner boot skin has been cut out, and frame drilled...

[Linked Image]

Charcoal cannister has been removed...

[Linked Image]

PAS removed, inc pump, cast brackets, fluid reservoir and hoses...

[Linked Image]

I hope this has saved another 10-15kgs, plus it has given the car a bit more feel through the steering, and made a few more bhp from not having to drive the PAS pump 8)

Can you run a high octane fuel or does it have to be 95 97?

Can run whatever fuel you like matey - I generally use Optimax.

To get the most out of a race fuel ie 105RON the car needs to be mapped with extra advance on the ignition timing - only problem then is thats all it will run on, and race fuel is £3+/litre frown

Might get a few BHP from it, but a turbo'd car would get more - the starion makes 100bhp more on race fuel omg
