"what do you mean you don't want a hole there????"

Lol.. looks like I missed out on the fun after I left - Didn't think he was going to let you anywhere NEAR any powertools

I wasn't worried about the strut tower - it's the bit that came before that photo that was the real worry! (the guard )

Everyone knows strut towers are stronger when pop riveted

Everyone knows strut towers are stronger when pop riveted

especially when you drill the spotwelds out first as it gives the rivet a stronger bite.

Then we weld the rivets...

Dyno graph 204.5 RWKW at ~6900rpm at ~12.8 AFR with a 7200 rev limit.


Dyno graph 189.8 RWKW at ~12.2 AFR (after changing the coolant temp sensor type - don't ask).

so have you finished the wiring yet, those 2 wires you have left to hookup to get the vvti working must be a real pita to twist&tape.
is it covered in convoluted tube yet or still looking nasty.

[mos' emo answer would be "no i havnt had time yet, im too busy scratching my balls (wait thats rod) and thinking of the hardest possible way to do it".]

No, the VVTi cam angle sensors remain unconnected.
Yep, sure, quarity twist and tape

is it covered in convoluted tube yet or still looking nasty.

Still "wiring by cable tie". On the plus side, the ECU box lid has been located

Mos' emo answer is "no I haven't had time yet, I'm too busy catching up on a month of foregone socialising"

I'm still trying to figure out how to fit the SM4 into the IS200 ECU box without cutting it up...

I had to cut up the SM2 to fit in the IS200 ECU box. Made a new aluminium case to hold both ECU's together with about 5mm between them.

[Mos]

Yep yep, I remember seeing the photos ... Unfortunately the SM4 is taller than the SM2 (a bunch of daughter board) and I don't think I'd actually be able to get both the SM4 and the 1G ECU both together inside the white, moisture free tray...
I'm trying to fit them both in the black enclosure - I'm pretty sure I can seal the SM4, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem having it outside the white tray.

[whatthe?]

Is it just a neatness thing? Whats wrong with having the SM4 in the cabin?
