looking great pete! really finishes off the front end!

by the way, i installed the carter 4070 fuel pump - it's fantastic and 100% better than the facet pump. just having some flooding issues in traffic now and was wondering what fuel pressure reg you used?

cheers

I didn't use a reg on the 4070, just straight into the carbs.

Hmm I guess this wouldn't see much traffic ha! Makes sense

Just to be clear is was talking about my old white race car. It's got twin dellortos fed directly by the 4070.

The Kamei car also has a 4070 but it's used to feed the fuel sump. Main pressure to the injectors is by a Bosch 044 submerged in the sump.

See you at the island on Saturday

does this mean you will be "going scene" now and lowering your car to make full effect of that front splitter?

Nope, it's set 3 inches above the deck which is low enough to work and high enough to clear the ripple strips.

First test of this is Phillip Island on Saturday.

Finally upgraded the brakes. This is a Tar.Ox 280mm 6 piston kit. Tarox | High Performance Brakes

As I have MK2 uprights I chose a MK2 kit. Interestingly Tar.Ox has been making these kits for the MK2 since the mid 80s

They clear the Varrstoen wheels fine, the G60 steelies need to be spaced out about 13mm to clear.

These end up being 4kg lighter per side than the Girling 60 calipers.
