Sounds like good fun!

Can you use the TPS to bring in the NOS progressively?

[Rhinopower]

When the pulsoids are used progressively they are pulsed on and off, so it would be a case of building a circuit that increases the pulses as the TPS goes from 0-5volts (the pulsoids run at 12volts). I think i should do a little bit of research

Definitely 555 timer and a few other readily available components. Easy

Hi mate love this car seen it in pf mag i also have similar plans to do this conversion on my mk5 escort popular, Thing is i can do it all myself but im at a loss with the wiring joining the new engine loom into the original car loom just wondered if you can help me out with wire order and colours if you dont mind~? cheers, Grant

Little update with pictures to follow.

Yesterday i made up two pig-tail looms for my gotech pro ecu, cannibalising an ofab loom in the process as i only had new plugs and terminals to go with the ecu,

Tonight i soldered in most of the wires onto the existing zetec loom with a couple of jumper wires to change it from sequential efi to batch firing on the injectors, and in such a way that if needs be, it can run on a DEEP ecu. Left to wire is the Tps, Cts, and IAT sensors but the engine does start and run, all be with my foot resting on the throttle pedal to slightly open the butterfly, the gotech pro doesn't run an ISCV!

lovely business, cant wait to get started on sleeper 2!

So without a DBW TB, how are you supposed to manage a stable idle?

[jimmyesh]

Top work - I love sleepers and this one just keeps getting better

[Smo]

I better get a move on with mine

[Rhinopower]

You are still alive then! Best get yourself sorted and come Santa pod end of October and see who is fastest on the quarter mile!!!

[Smo]

I've been away

And it'll be you and Dave because there's no chance of me being there Need to go back to a shorter gearbox because that one I've got is useless and I've got loads I want to do which I can't see being done this side of Christmas

You going to map the Gotech yourself?

[Rhinopower]

Gotech is out, fudgekin thing! Probably the most un-userfriendly software in the world, made a tidy profit on it and going for megasquirt instead.

Also picked up a second 11lb nitrous bottle today to save on trips to get refills.

Further down the line were now looking at a st170 engine based on the fact the bottom end can take around 300bhp in standard form, and ignition can be retarded sufficiently to run a 100bhp shot of nitrous, and running throttle bodies.

[Smo]

Oooooh.

[Rhinopower]

Came next day delivery from latvia! Pretty good from an ebay seller, should have the ms tomorrow and then upgrade it

[~nomad~]

cheeky stuff. desperate to start version 2 now lol

[Smo]

Haha, excellent. Was that the same seller I used?

[Rhinopower]

Smo, yes the same seller, very good turnaround.

Today i fitted my WoN progressive controller so i can get more gas from a bottle, should help with traction issues when it kicks in too!

Also dummyed up the twin bottle mounting, the red and black looks pretty handsome i think.

[~nomad~]

controller mounting looks pony, will make sure i do a better job in ka!

[Ruishy1]

maybe need to change your name to NitroPower

i like the mounting, who needs pretty when you can have fuinctional

[Smo]

Beautiful

[~nomad~]

you can have both!

[Rhinopower]

New personal best at santa pod yesterday, 15.2 1/4 mile, 97mph terminal speed

Few more updates to follow once i've got pics.

[~nomad~]

I have a few pics, will upload them.

[Smo]

Not bad! Was that with the nitrous oxide?

[~nomad~]

few pics from sunday, was a good day, good to see Shaun (carbongay69er), Jon Frst and other fella what bought Shauns shell, also saw Lucas car, didnt speak to luke as he looked busy lol, car looked rapid thou , Gav (butcher) was there, car looked great, and saw Crazy cages car but didnt manage to see it run.

The que for strip was mental!



pod at 8 in morning, weird seeing it so empty, we were actually the first in que for strip, ended up 3rd to run.





awesome Jamsport FRS, only thing I didnt like was the cage, which looked dangerous to me tbh.



stupid, loud, anorak attracting fudgekin dragcrap.



got spanked



mighty boosh themed drag bike!



datsun 240z, this is a real car folks!



Brians s**t bodged wiring meant he had to do another bodge as nitrous controller was blowing fuses lol





ratchet strap and hairy string around the nitrous bottle, as Brian cant even do a bottle bracket up right.



fudgekin hell



lovely Pod



Harvey gibbs doing 10.5!

[FRSJON]

was good to see you mate,bloody cold though some rapid cars those bloody bikes though,just like they do on the road,go round everyone to get to the front! saw a bike go up the strip,drive all the way round and push back in to the front! i would of ran the c**t over!

[Smo]

One day I shall be there!

[Rhinopower]

One day I shall be there!

Yeah, and the dirtbox will do a 12 second quarter!

[Smo]

Oi!

And I did say one day... It's not like I've specified exactly when that'll be yet

[jonyb4]

looked like a great day out guys, f**k harveys car is mental! i remember its 2.9 at silverstone

and that jamsports focus is stunning!

[Excursion]

Go and do some real driving

[~nomad~]

Go and do some real driving

like what? Car did a trackday at Bedford the day after Pod, and gets the f**k thrashed out of it everytime it goes on the road, last time I drove it I offroaded it to escape from a L200 on the lanes! I cant think of many cars that get used as real as this one tbh!

I has a st170 exhaust manifold fitted now, boosh.

[~nomad~]

One st170 manifold modified for mk3 fiesta zetec fitment, fitted to the car now, bolts straight up to zetec, will be tested extensivily and then can be provided as a service if anyone wants one!

accepted lol. Did you think it was a 1/4 mile car? Not really suited for that tbh, not enough power and gearbox is too long, 3rd for 60! But 1/4 days are fun. I don't see alot of point in cars that are only good for that thou tbh.
