G'day Trevor, I recently looked into this and from memory think the following would be a guide. - only buy 'branded' cards from a reputable seller... there are apparently lots of knock-offs in the on...

Hi Dan, I suspect my RSX has the same air jack system as your XX. I'm not sure of the 'maximum pressure', but when I got my car I simply adjusted the regulator from a low pressure setting upwards, un...

@ksgrimsr - seems like a similar idea Knut!... Glad to know it works. I have also thought about putting a 12v pigtail on the water pump for the same reason, but will hold off to see if the thermo-syp...

@davearm127 - G'day - Not sure, but looking at Neil's photo I doubt your SR3 would fit on the same length trailer as the rear diffuser is a lot further back than on his ProSport.... I reckon it would ...

Further to my message a few minutes ago with the 'Dash Label' ... and while the subject of engine 'pre-heating' is being discussed, maybe I could ask if anyone has ever tried preheating the coolant as...

@parsonsj - great information John. I'm not sure if anyone else would be interested, but as another 'new owner' (used my car for the first time last month) I made and laminated a label for the dash ...

@rich - Thanks Rich. Can you tell us a bit more about the effect of the Oxygenated Fuels? I have just used my Radical for the first time and have purchased 60 litres of this for the practice sessions...

@gobble - thanks!... and good luck when you get to the track!

@gobble.... G'day - just interested in whether you got to the bottom of your problem??

I've never seen either... any chance you could share the 1500 version of the dyno sheet you have?

@levo - you may be right Paul!... ultimately doesn't matter that much as others were able to provide the help I needed. I'll use the ER70S-6 tig rods for the repair and include a 'reinforcing' plate.

@parsonsj - thankyou John... that's very helpful and I appreciate your advice re the reinforcement idea too. I'll continue down that path and see where I end up.

@levo...take your pick...?? or Seems that the 'Flitch Plate' is more commonly used with reference to strengthening Timber beams (using steel plates), while Fishplate derives from railway terminolog...
