haha, no worries.

Awesome car though.

any other plans?

JJacquesopper01 Apr 2011, 17:20

I ordered a aluminuim overflow bottle , will be here in next week . At this stage Riekert , not much planned , just some cosmetic changes like bodykit , wide rear and front fenders , racing wing , drift bonnet and maybe a electronic boost controller . But time will tel , did not spend so many time after the wheels as I would have liked because I had to get it dyno tuned . The dicktator was very rich , hopefully I will get it back from the tuner on Monday .

ppoizenmoderator01 Apr 2011, 17:22

Yo man can I buy the plastic bottle of you then

JJacquesopper01 Apr 2011, 18:12

Sorry Poizen , will be using the plastic one for the CA18 build that I am also busy with , his bottle was repaired with some plastic pieces glued together.

Hi ,

I need some technical info please . I am busy replacing the RB20 gearbox with a RB25 fatboy box and the speedo unit on the box looks as if it will not fit as the firewall is very close to the box . Do I need to get another unit or modify it in any way ? Any help will be appreciated .

Thanks

rratadmin01 Jun 2012, 10:48

Ca sr rb20 box are the same inside. Speedo sensors can be swapped. Rb25 is very different. You can try get a speedo drive from a vg30 box. Use a ford hammer to get your transmission tunnel bigger.
