@rojid - G'day from Tassie. I've always used copper anti-seize on these and will continue to do that unless someone mentions something better here. I think any 'ant-seize' on joints like this makes ...

@meatman .. yes... but only due to friction I think from memory. You can definitely stop it from spinning with your hand.

@rojid ... good find and good progress. I will not bother sending you the wiring diagram you requested then! I got back from the UK last week but have been ill ever since. I was at RLM for a week or...

@rojid - G’day. I’m travelling in the UK and Norway right now but will be back home at the end of the month. I’d be happy to share a wiring diagram with you once I get back if you’re happy to wait.

@jpvintage62 ... I've got an RSX and an XX and much prefer the RSX - it's lighter and simpler without the PDM/PDU. My XX was one of the last made and also came with the higher steering position stand...

@jpvintage62 Hi Julian, I wouldn't rush to buy another one... ... although as far as I'm aware the only difference from an 'aero' perspective between the XX and say an RSX is the rear wing end plate...

@rojid Seems like several of us are on the same path at the moment regarding coolant water heaters. I have two SR3's basically so that I can have some toys in the workshop to play with... racing just...

@jamesmcga I agree with Charley, The answer will be in the Life data. ... I'd check fuel pressure first. It should be shown on your dash (AiM MXL2 has it, not sure about AiM MXL?), but it will de...

@fsts2k - Hi Again, Yes... I have measured it quite a lot as I do my own 'flat patch' set-up. When the car was delivered it was also measured then. The car had almost zero fuel in it, as it had jus...

@fsts2k . I have both cars here, an 2017 RSX and a 2023 XX. The XX is way heavier... and the cars are almost identically specifications. I haven't measured each individual component to see where th...

@rojid .. good to know it can be taken out from below. I've always taken it out by removing the rear tail section of bodywork (and the rear wing to make that possible) and then lifting it up/out. Th...

@rlm-dan and @prschmn ... maybe this could help? I found it useful as it lists all the part numbers... including the pushrod numbers (and length), plus what spacers and bolt hardware is required for ...

@beau ... big difference between the level of tune on a RPE1500 compared to the stock 1300 (and later 1340cc) I think... Dan has mentioned before there is a set of cams that can give 5hp on the dyno (...

@walteriv ... I know that's what the RS Manual says.... but if your car has the high downforce aero kit, then I can almost guarantee it will be way too soft. I have a friend (@danh who sometimes loo...

@walteriv, A little bit difficult due to the large radius on the diffuser outlet... but the measurements you show above are; A - 1110 mm B - 1185 mm and another point at the bottom (where the diffuse...
