Fantastic FC.

It's threads like these that make me want to go fix my car and rebuild my engine. Thanks for the inspiration.

I am using, or going to use a brand new apexi power FC. But they arent made for fc anymore so i got one for an FD.

Stock trailing coilpack has 1 igniter for both coils. Because i am going to use an FD ecu i needed to modify it so i got 1 igniter for each coil. So 2 igniters in total.

Hope this makes things clear

In the 5th picture from the top, what RC car are you running there? Looks like you run competitively since you have it on a camber plates. 1/8th scale? Looks like quick release for the rear tires.

Nice FC BTW a lot of quality stuff there

Bought Furb's old Forge wastegate actuator. Installed it today and put the turbo back on its place.

Also tried to remove the relief silencer, but like told in somekind of FAQ, that's a pain in the ***... Snapped one bold and another was still stuck so i decided to leave that for another moment to come.

update from dutchland


fuel hose and fittings arived






Visit Furb today to look at that monster and took his old koyo radiator with me back home.







I also bought a fusebox at work. It can be found in a VW golf 4 and 3B passat, seat leon from 2002 and some audi's.

I am planning to hide it under the dash, and it is there for accesories like the defi gauges.

As you can see there are 3 rows of 7 fuse positions. One row wil be constant power, batterie. One will be an acc and the other one is for illumination.

Connect the fusebox once and no more screwing around with the wires.

Well i'm not making that much muny cuz im still partly at school. So it is frustrating to not be able to continue becaus i dont got parts...

I fotgot one hose end so i am not able to finnish the feed lines for the fuel system.

Also im not realy sure how i am going to run the return hose.

So first i need to wait till i get mony later this month, then i can buy me some stuff. When i got that stuff i can look what i want to do and when im sure about that i can order all the remaining hose ends lines etc at once.

This need patience... its frustrating....

Ok, so the fuel rails are now paralel connected.

Only the main-return hose needs to be made yet but i came one hose end short so that will have to wait.

Been busy with the fusebox i wanted. And i mounted the PFC commander holder.

Not perfect, but it will do. Its behind the glove compartment.
