its a secret.....

Kidding,

i fitted it inside the car. Facing the driver under the dash.
Then extended the clutch pedal to counter the lever force.
So when you push the pedal an arm above the pedal pushes towards the driver.
Bracket system holds the master in place
and thats it.

Updates,
Busy working on fitting body kit,

Then my biggest concern is now finally dealt with.
I had fitted electronic oil pressure guages with gimics like oil pressure warning lights and buzzers. all sounded so cool
What a crack a shit

Reverted back to a mechanical oil pressure guage for acuracy.
Becouse I am running a dry sump system, i have an external pump.
So if the belt breaks and or pump siezes or any other reason that would cause a loss of oil pressure.
With my current system i would never know as while driving im too busy to look at guages.

So to ensure reliablity and make sure that this motor lasts i fitted a adjustable pressure switch. N/0 from 1-10 bar
And i connected it through the ECU Power supply.
So when i hit the desired pressure in this case 1.5 Bar, the switch opens and power to ECU is cut.

System works great and will def give me piece of mind now while driving.

Also been working on getting cooler air through the engine bay. After 2 laps the car gets HOT ...I MEAN HOT
So raised bonnet

Increase cool air supply.

next steps is to relocate the oil cooler as i belive it is blocking air to radiator.

Test at rock tomorrow and check temps atc.
FInally also dialed in the suspension now acuratly and properly so keen to see how it responds.

Do u have to crank the motor till there is oil pres, before it will start, or swithch ecu on?

Ahh a man who is awake!
No i dont. I fitted a bypass toggle switch to bypass the manometric pressure switch.
So when i start the bitch, and the pressure comes up. i flip the toggle and the fail safe activates.

Happy days
