Have a look at how my Starion Track car is diveloping.

Still much to do, Haven't even touched the suspension yet, the body is pritty rough, but it goes and stopps very well. Would love to get my hands on an LSD, but wouldnt we all.
Check out the direct fire ignition, I designed and built the direct fire ignition, learn a lot about ignition systems. It takes the signals from the L300 dizzy, Trigger and Home, and the signal from the Haltech ECU and fires the correct coil with the timing setup in the haltech ignition maps. The Haltech E6K did not have enough outputs to run both Sequential fuel injection, and 4 coil direct fire ignition.

I will be updating the site soon

Looks like it's coming along well.
I like the 'aims' page, lots of information there :D

And it's always good to see action shots. Car's looking a bit dirty in em though, did you miss the track?

What's the cooler->throttle body piping made from?

hey Avan,

Nice work man coming along great.
Can you take a photo of where your harnesses bolt too? cause I am doing this currently

Cheers

I'm also interested in this.

What is a good, low cost easy to make up solution for turbo > ic > throttle body piping? Someone on here had some flexible heat resistant hosing before, is it any good?

The intercooler piping is stainless steal that I perchased from my local metal reclycling place, 2.5 inch in diameter. I bought some new stainless bends. Connected them all together with rubber pipe and hose clamps of similar diameter. The cold side of the intercooler piping is made of the same stuff, but it has black heat insulating foam wrapped around it to try to keep the heat from the engine bay from worming up the charge.

The racing harnesses sholder straps are connected to the ridge of steal that seperates where the back of the rear seats used to be, and the boot aria. It is nice and high, so my spine does not get crushed in the event of a crash. The lap straps are connected to the floor below the seat. I will put some photos of it up soon.

I need to do some more work on the web site. Make it contain more information.

cool, good to know thanks mate, yeah pics would be great :)
I know what i am doing now :D

Cheers

Great effort! Looks like you need some suspension now!

Gday Chris
I was a starter in gravel rally the day before, and I used my Starion to get to the stage. That is why my car is soo dirty, although I did fall off the track a few times during the day at the race track.
I updated my starion page today, a bit more info on what I have done to the car. More to come

Cheers Allan

You're not having fun if you don't get dirty :)

Some good info on the mods page now (that's not being sarcastic this time). Keep up the good work

I love mud

That looks like a fun car!
