lol pretty shit house. i really need some practice. :lol: i snapped the accelerator cable bracket (fixed that) then i blew the turbo manifold gasket :cry: ended my day by 11:30am fark all power. ive since made up a new gasket and put it on.

Car is on display at Sandown 500 this weekend for anyone coming down to watch.

Also Fast Fours are doing a feature on it :D so yeh other than that its been running really well ive been driving it to work (300~km to a tank :cry: with a fair bit of thrashing).

the little CA's were never very fuel efficient... frustrating when SR20's with more power, thrashed to bits and still get better efficiency...

... good to hear that the car is actually being used LOL (and not just for track events...)

i used to be able to drive 5 and a half hours and still have 1/4 of a tank left. my microtech had too high a cruise afr set. we've reduced it a bit (leaned it out on the decel cut) so that it should get a bit better mileage (you could see fuel coming out on cruise (smoke)) so yeh needs a retune with better afr's (less than 12.3 lol so more power :D ) but other than it being a bit rich on cruise it goes really nice.
