Jetpilot Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Cant think for the life of me if am right but sure I remember reading about a new in tank pump the other day, may have been Bosch. Used to run a 044 in tank and was very happy with it, it was only the serious track boys who ran swirl pots. Any thoughts on water injection or water/meth, keep intake temps down?

Ian Posted March 21, 2015 Author Share Posted March 21, 2015 Cant think for the life of me if am right but sure I remember reading about a new in tank pump the other day, may have been Bosch. Used to run a 044 in tank and was very happy with it, it was only the serious track boys who ran swirl pots. Any thoughts on water injection or water/meth, keep intake temps down? I'm leaning more towards a single intank pump TBH although the guys on the Supra forum are torn between the 2 options Water/meth injection is definitely something being considered, temps are likely to be a big issue for this car so I will need all the help that I can get with cooling. My subframe has finally come back from the powdercoaters, Its not quite the blue that I requested but seeing as this took 6 weeks ill take it And for no other reason other than I am a total ARC whore I bought this It wont be any more efficent than the GReddy one I have now, but its ARC and I'm a sucker for anything ARC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

docwra Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Polo (who may still be on here actually) has just specced a 3 pump system for his JZ driftcar, 2 for the tank and one for a swirl pot, £79 each apparently as one wouldnt feed the power he is making Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMballistic Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Am I going colour blind or something Ian because that subframe looks definitely black to me and not blue. Good to see things still happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetpilot Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Also have to say i admire your patience, i got so fed up of accumulating parts (although fun buying), waiting for bits to be made, fitted or otherwise with Rx7's i vowed never to do it again unless i had everything i needed and then give it to someone and say, fit that, i will be back in a month or 2!

grahamc Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 I really like the look of those brakes, you are going to need them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 The brakes look awesome, a lot bigger than the Brembos I wanted Stoptechs all round but they were double the price although I did nearly come close to buying a set of Endless fronts but with 370mm disks I wasnt confident they would fit under my wheels 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So when are you expecting/hoping to have this up and running? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just waiting to find out from Stevo if he lives near there. I'm hoping its sorted, My uncle works in Cherry Hinton and is coming down to Wales tomorrow - it just depends on if the guy I'm buying it from is around this afternoon The brakes look awesome, a lot bigger than the Brembos I wanted Stoptechs all round but they were double the price although I did nearly come close to buying a set of Endless fronts but with 370mm disks I wasnt confident they would fit under my wheels Similar reason I went for the Akebona brakes on the 350z (originally had the crappy JSpec brakes) and for an extra £150-200 they looked a lot better option than the brembos. So when are you expecting/hoping to have this up and running? My mate wants it out of his garage by the end of April. I've been taking up a space in the garage since June so he wants it gone as much as I do 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
