New exhaust - white smoke?
The seals get hotter,expand then seal up whilst driving.When the tubs cool at idle they allow oil to pass

New exhaust - white smoke?
^^^^^^^^^^ The new exhaust has altered the back pressure and caused the tub seals to pass oil.can happen sometimes :mad2:

An enjoyable trip to Halfords.....
Its because its not really trade prices really.Joe public gets his pants yanked down to his ankles, halfords trade card holders pants only get to the knees. The prices are so inflated in the first place they can afford to drop the massive mark up.

Failed brake upgrade
Alanz bought those i recall,they were ds2000 ferodos intended for a van that had been ground on the edges to fit the caliper.
-
What does this connect to?
ignore that plug.Thats an american loom and will have some plugs the uk/jdm cars dont use.As your fitting a boost controller,cut off the unwanted plugs and tape up the wires to keep the engine bay looking tidy.It is possible to do the inside part of fitting the loom with the dash in.fiddly but possible.

Engine stand bolts and mounting
Get a winding one,its much safer.Only paid £150 for mine off Snap on.Its made by blue point and winds 360 degrees so you can set it exactly where you need it.

The Madmax help and support thread
The big black cylinder is the brake booster or servo.They seldom go wrong so should only be replaced if they wont hold the stored vacuum pressure.MJP on here can sort the cylinders for you.

Just get new ones Martin.They are not expensive.But if you wish put a kit in the clutch master but not the brake one,i wouldnt risk it with a car of that performace.

Neutral switch pin?
Wire it to the gearboxes neutral switch as it should be.This way the car knows your in gear and starts to advance the timing.Grounding it will just cause the ecu to think your in neutral all the time.

wood / carbon dash
My thoughts exactly !! Hideous:thumbdown:
-
Neutral switch pin?
You need to wire one side of the switch to earth and the other to pin 44 on the ecu.

Awesome Driving
Power wise he nailed it,but in the handling he wouldnt.The falcon used to race rs1600 mk 1 escorts.The falcons always did well on the straight but the escorts could take the bends.I admire anyone that can navigate 2 tonnes of pig iron around a twisty track.

The fuel system does have a non return in the fuel tank.to check its working undo a fuel pipe ten minutes after a run.If you have pressure its doing its job.
