Well after doing only 200kms on new engine, the Fuel pump died on me today.. better to get all the bugs out now than bump into them at track day challenge.

If it makes you feel any better, i think your the third person on the forum over the last 7 odd years that has had an oxy sensor cause the fuel pump fuse to blow.

So I had a little time up my sleeve today, thought I would do a little quick mod for the track, it came about as I have a few spare engine lids just sitting there in the shed... better to do something with em than just sit there :-)
 
I thought I would like to change where the air filter sits, hopefully allow it to breath a little better.. below is how it sits when not on the track.

 
As mentioned, I have a few spare engine lids, so I started marking up.
 
1st I marked up, ready to cut out the panel half covering the vents.

 
How it looks once that section was removed.

 
Next, I re positioned the cleaner setup so it faces directly upwards & marked out the hole on the spare engine lid.

 
Cut out made & looking good!

 
Engine lid in closed position.... WOW, it lined up perfectly :-)

 
Quick bit of PCV piping installed to correct length... and there you go.

 

 

 
No idea, if it will help, but definitely looks cool... for the track anyways.

You've obviously got too much time on your hands!

Next on the agenda, flush & put new racing brake fluid & pads, install new RSR 595's & test out at Mallala on Saturday 10th of Dec.

If all goes well with no unexpected issues, It will then be ready for its interstate trip over to WP for the Mr2 Track day challenge in Jan 2017!!!

Cant wait!

Ok, slight change of plans.. I've decided not to bring this car over to the track day challenge in January.
Will be bringing the two sw20's over instead.
