Thank you very much for the info, Murray Actually, I've got a spare AFM and an ECU from the 2.5, so no problems with that. I was thinking about fitting a bigger AFM as a first step before getting rid of it. Is it worth the work? I've read that higher flow injectors are recommendable, so I'm looking ...

Just ordered my MS-I V2.2

Hi everybody!! I've just ordered my MS-I (also have the Stimulator) to substitute the L-Jetronic ECU of my stock 3.0 engine. I've been told that I need to buy a Wideband O2 sensor. Suggestions? Where can I fit that sensor? I have an euro spec exhaust with no place for it. Do I need to buy any extra ...

Got a Knock sound in my V6 engine

I've just realised that there's a knock sound coming from the engine. It looks like it comes from the piston No.4. It sounds when cold or hot and on almost all the rev-range. The more you rev the engine up, the more often it knocks. Sometimes the sound disappears over 3.000rpm but not always and not...

Does the RSR kit use a modified caliper? (like the SZ rear conversions)?

Yes, exactly the same way. You can see the spacers in the pics.

GTV6 Stock cams

Does anybody have the specifications of the GTV6 stock camshafts? I'd like to compare them with the 164S ones.

Thanks!

Ok, I found the adjuster and it's not the one marked in the previous picture. Using a program, I got a 300Hz (to match 6.000rpm) square signal out of my speakers, but only 0.5 Volts amplitude (should be 6-12V). I plugged the negative pole o it to the ground on the tach and the positive to the center...

Front brakes kit for GTV6/75 from RSRacing

I guess everybody knows this item from RSRacing:

How are the studs supposed to be fitted with that kit? Has anybody done the same plate/spacer and knows the measures?

Thanks, SamW

I've just downloaded a sound generator program, so I can get any frequency associated to a determined rpm. I just don't know (still) how to connect the sound card exit to the rev-counter and what's the right swicth on it!!!

How can I re-calibrate my Rev-counter? It works, but shows much higher revs than real.
