Maybe we'll try and get together and go for regular cruises, just need few more boys to finish their toys.
 
On another note I decided to get the car fully engineered now, being a street car I want it to be 100% legal on the road.
I just started the process of engineering, I applied for all the mods on the car and  have received what is known in SA as Statement of requirements(SoR) stating itemised things the car has to comply/be tested for.
From here my engineer has to do relavant tests compile the report and I have to present the car for inspection to Regency to check that the car complies with set out requirements etc etc.
 
When I take the car to Regency they will also be doing full roadworthy.So far the only issues with the car were minor stuff such as speedo to be working and within 10% accurate, washers, vented battery box and some of the bolts needed to be upgraded to specific tensile grade. Overall engineer is very happy with the car.    

Do you need to run the car through the IM240 emmissions test due to an aftermarket ECU?

How'd it go on the brake fade test?

Hi Paul,
Interestingly there is no mention of im240 at this stage, so far they only request mr853 vehicle emission test report.

Matt,

The full brake test and the lane change tests which are done together have now been postponed 3 times due to wet weather.

I am glad as I wasn't 100% happy with the brake bias as with both f&r .625 master cyls I was getting too much rear bias causing rears to lock first. Sure enough I tested bias at 55/45%.So this week I ended up getting a .7 master for the rears which will hopefully be enough to fix the bias so the rears don't lock before fronts.
