Don't think there's any limit to how many photos/videos you can stick in the gallery but there might be a file size limit on the individual file. Will have a look.

[techieboy]

Doesn't seem to be any limits in the Gallery. I just uploaded a few hefty sized pictures without any problem. You're definitely uploading to the Gallery and then just using the URL from the Image Link box alongside the pic?

The only place that I know of any limits is the stupid attachment facility when you create a new post. That has a tiny limit for the total size of all of your attachments and is a waste of space.

Cheers Will try again later, still no word

still no word

Well, I guess that means it hasn't burst into flames. So that's good news.

Nick, when are you going to post up some juicy dyno plots, so I know what to beat at my mapping session Best of luck anyway, it's always nerve wracking when your car goes on the rollers IMO.

I don't think you will have any problem beating my dyno plots Nev, not with the engine you have built, The car is now, I hope now on the dyno at Courtenay's

Cheers, will post as soon as I know something.

Nah, this is much more important. You've been waiting two years for this day/week.

Just an update, I just spoke to Mark and I lost my dyno slot when they had to spend time which was booked for it finding the fault, so I am on a as available slot. Could be some days yet, back to work on Thursday for 7 days as well

Balls.

Balls.

I'm up at CMS next week, can check in on your baby for you

[The Batman]

i think it may have had a run today.... not sure how much they got done though.... cant really confirm if it was on the dyno or being moved into the dyno room for tomorrow...

[FLD]

top of my head:

z22yh coilpack
60-2 trigger wheel
trigger wheel sensor bracket (webcon)
z20 knock sensor
VXR amm
porsche tb
z20 ecu and imobiliser with matching chip
z20 map sensor
vxt engine wiring loom to yellow/blue connectors plus a fair bit of modding

cant think of anything else

I know you dont do your own mods but do you know what has to be done to the wiring loom? Is it just mods to make it fit to the new sensor locations / wire routing?

[vocky]

depends which donor looms you use, corsa and z22se or both vxT engine looms either way I would suggest buying the vxT short loom and then modify the other to fit the z22se engine Just had a thought, with 380+ bhp will they need a LSD

[The Batman]

Drugs? As in don't drink and drive smoke and fly? I'm hoping the Tyres will take most of that but if not will have to get one for the vxr box either that or possible go down the traction control root... Quaife LSD is about 600£ but then is probably Allot less hassle than fitting traction control!

Might be just a blond moment but I dont quite get that. Are you suggesting the best route is to buy a VXT engine loom and then make it fit OR do I need part of the Z22 loom as well as the tubby loom?

Sorry for being thick, my brain is a bit full at the mo.

Na don't like LSD's, will see how it goes first I might have to get one if I smoke the tyres too much

You buy the short loom from a dealer then get the long loom from a vxt and modify it. You don't need to use the z22se loom.

[vocky]

you either; buy a corsa 1.2 16v engine loom and modify that to fit, but you will need sections of the z22se engine loom and it's a total ballache or buy the vxT short loom (which goes from the blue/black plugs to the ecu) and the vxT engine loom, then modify them to fit - which is quite easy

Superb. Thats EXACTLY what I needed to know. Thanks. Strangely I have a spare Z22 loom so I can go down either route although I'd prefer the easier option!
