Fair do's ben! What kind of timeframe have you given yourself? What was the craic with the old omex loom?

 

[ben_p]

the old omex loom it met up with a psh1 loom.. it worked fine but i wanted rid of the OEM ecu.

8 weeks and it needs to be done

Should be mint when it's finished. You running a cable adjuster for the bias valve?

 

[ben_p]

no, running the lines behind the dash to light switch area.

Won't that make them a bit on the long side? You using solid piping? Sounds interesting lol.

 

[ben_p]

nope, they run through where the old aircon blower was under the scuttle, i measured the distance the old system took (with the ABS unit on the NS) and it was 10cm shorter my way lol.

S'all good then! Looks like a good project, will keep an eye on it. :approve:

 

[ben_p]

on a side note.. does it matter if they longer or shorter? as hydraulics dont compress?

Depends on your lines and things really.. might get a bit more flexing in the pipe walls etc, I've only ever done the theory side of it. Even then the change in brake travel should only be minimal. Any thoughts on bleeding the lines? Just thinking it might be a bit awkward if the air gets trapped at the high points near the dash?

 

[GarethM]

love your projects ben, thats a lot of work to do in 8 weeks!

I used one of those gunson air pressure ones, but not sure how it will work on this set up, can only test and see

[Ash87]

awesome project, hope to see it at fcs!

 

[Ryair]

Fantastic project mate! Car will be fapping awesome!

Glad my OMP cage was the older design... Mounts to the rear floor rather than the arches but goes through the dash. Looks like you have had a mare with yours!

Mines a proper piss take, there's no way on earth it was made on a jig! I had to cut most of it off and re weld it, it was sooooo far out! They supply feet with the kit to weld to the chassis but they shouldn't of bothered!

Can't wait until its all done, can crack on with other shiz now!

 

[dutty_112]
