Well in chambers mate buzzing for you - that feeling of getting it running!! I will hopefully see you at a track this year - we should organise a day somewhere for all the swapped lads #kswaptheworld and all that 😎 I’ve still got loads of bits to do but the end is near 🤟🏼
Are you the chap I had a conversation with about the car at Castle Combe Rally Day?
What an absolute journey, well done mate. Track day booked? Or does it need mapping first?
Should think you ur over the moon!! Look the business! Is it ready for track time?
Cheers mate I’m buzzing too.Well in chambers mate buzzing for you - that feeling of getting it running!!

not sure - as above 5ft f**k all so if you spoke to someone fitting this description then yes but likely you spoke to a different mike (mike Bowle)
still a list to work through as always 😂😂
Teething problems to sort them theProbably not, the guy I met at Combe was from Bristol and had a white K20 build, but it didn't look the best put together, the black one in your pic looks a lot more up together.
Whats left on the list mate?
Such a milestone isn't it once its running, then feels a bit anti-climatic when there is still a list
Teething problems to sort them the
main things left are exhaust manifold and exhaust, then suspension geo and mapping 🤞🏻
Not sure yet, Northampton motorsport is so close so possibility, or street racers or JCal maybe.Awesome, not a great deal really then.
Where are you getting it mapped?
Nice mate. Very nice. 👍🏻Small change.
I wanted this manifold from the beginning of the Kswap but couldn’t be bothered with the hassle of importing it myself but now Tegiwa sell them so jumped straight in on it

This is like the endless lists I make of all things want to do with car build but you actually do it, whereas I stay stuck on step 1 - get it running
Very nice mate!!! Any track time planned yet?
Hunting badly ?cheers mate. Not yet. Got an issue with the engine idling and staying running at the minute 😂
Yeah abit. Idle is like 2k and soon as I press the throttle it dies. Almost like a vac leak but There’s not. I’ve calibrated the TPS several times aswellHunting badly ?
Are you running standard ep3 idle control valve as mine was seized was a b*****d on idleYeah abit. Idle is like 2k and soon as I press the throttle it dies. Almost like a vac leak but There’s not. I’ve calibrated the TPS several times aswell
Sound. yeah standard one so I’ll check that.Are you running standard ep3 idle control valve as mine was seized was a b*****d on idle
And mine sounded like it had a air leak!!!
Yeh mate really common for them to seize.. soak with wd40👌
Mine also siezed from me not driving it for a while. Simply removed it and did the above to release it and it was all good mate
That’s a pain!! on the skunk mani have you blanked all vac ports off underneath? You tried squirting with brake cleaner round inlet while running to see if engine note change ?

I’m not sadly mate and they got a little one way valve which sometimes fails and has it been mapped yet? Will it run at all when up to tempYou on Instagram?
