Great to hear Phil.
Will you make EC on the 5th of March?

I have been waiting for parts to arrive to get the brake upgrade underway. Hats' this week and hopefully the brake lines too. The original pedal system has now been removed with a trial fit of the triple pedal system completed today. IT will be a tight fit but will work OK. The master cylinders are now just behind the sway bar which will be enclosed in a box yet to be fabricated. A base will also be made tomorrow to mount the floor box. The brake bias cable clears everything nicely so no need for the 90 degree adapter. The throttle linkage is a headache but will have it in order soon.

I fitted the O2 sensor with help from robk with wiring and understanding the system. Thanks Rob.
Also the fuel gauge is now working! Yahoo!

I checked my chassis plate today and found it is a 1998 SW20, Gen 5. Can anyone shed some light on the Gen 5?

last of the breed? what else did you want to know.

Mainly the engine spec's and changes if any.

Well Im making progress on the brake upgrade. The rotor hats arrived this week as did the adaptors to run the new calipers.
Today was spent designing the caliper brackets and making adjustments to the hubs so this system will fit within the guards.
It really is a total pain going down this path but the end rusult will be worth it.
The floor pedal box has been fitted but needs some fine tuning as there isn't much room down there.
Here are some comparison pic's of the upgrade. There really is a big difference but amazingly the new system is actually lighter than the original brakes. An exact difference will be available soon

needs bigger brakes in my opinion. those indy car brakes are girly.

WOW!
