Rod, Good advice. I can see now that tapping on the drive shaft end would have worked also. I saw that when I was working but was unsure since this was the first time I had done this on a Radical an...

@schneller - G'day Ron, You can see the end of the shaft up the middle of the hub. I think another way around that issue would have been to use a brass drift (... or even a piece of hardwood that wo...

Ok. Got it worked out. The metal tripod joint housing had surface rust and was stuck in the hub. I think the splines had rusted and fused to the hub side. I sprayed penetrating oil in the area in ...

@bird - Hi Jay, Main dimensions are 40mm wide and 215mm long. The material I used is 2.5mm thick (anything between 1.5 and 3mm would work really, as long as it can be formed to shape with heat.... o...

Hello Charley. I've been out of town and will be trying Dan's suggestions this week. I've also got a new temp sensor and new baro sensor to try. Don

@charleyhradicalsportscarregistry-com Could be. Or maybe the V8s are different? I think this might be a question for "Ask Phil" ? 🙂

Got this from Phil on Facebook. Thought I would share. Back in the day we supplied quite a few 380hp V6 , it’s typical road spec V6 - it flatters to deceive , initial throttle openings are responsive...

@charleyhradicalsportscarregistry-com On my SR8s, there's a bolt on the upright side, accessed from the wheel side of the upright.

@bird - Hi Jay, Yes. That's another thing I made and helps enormously when you are trying to maximise the use of the RPM shift lights in bright sunlight. I had some thin black plastic sheet at home ...

I go entirely by feel to determine whether the fronts or rears are locking. You can feel the difference in your hands and body whether it is front or rear. It just takes a little practice, but if yo...

Update on the temperature strips. I purchased the temp strips from Pegasus.com who I think has the best price on these, $18 for 10 strips: RP-TEMP-230 Racetech 8-Temperature Strips, 160-230 F (71-...

Thanks Don and apologies for not understanding correctly. The first thing I would be looking at is your throttle body set up, one of the Radical manuals (RSX?) details on setting up the bodies. It is ...

Adding my thoughts to this. The ECU battery keeps track of engine hours so when it goes flat this will be forgotten. The date shown is the last time the ECU was reset. The logbook per entry shows the ...

If it starts and sounds ok when warm it is worth keeping in mind this is a slightly older car on an older version of engine management. In my mind these always needed some throttle to start and held u...

On my recent engine swap, when I started it for the first time it was misfiring and not running long. I noticed when I connected the coil wire to the number 2 plug, there was no firm snap of the cap ...
