Re: Make slowboy not so slow

Worked on it quite a bit today, and everything was going slow as usual so I didn't get done everything I wanted to.

However, the front wheel assemblies are all put together except for the center nut thingy, which is like 30mm and I don't have a socket that big, but I should have one tomorrow.

Also, I spent like an hour dealing with these stupid studs on the intake mani. They are an inch longer than the usual length and it took FOREVER to get them off. It took three nuts together as tight as I could, and a couple tries with that to get them broken loose. These are the stupid little problems I've been dealing with the entire process.

Re: Make slowboy not so slow

The IC pipes and radiator are left still, but I'll probably get those done tonight after work. After that it's pretty much just getting the fluids in, wiring the CAS harness (which I hope to find in the junkyard after work), and getting the banjo bolt for the oil feed line.

I have a question though, about the power transistor unit, I think that's what it's called. When reading through the Magnus tutorial about the 6 bolt swap, it said to use the 2g power transistor with a custom mounting bracket. I see that there is no spot on the 1g intake mani to mount it, and the 1g coil pack doesn't have a spot for it either. What exactly is this part, and can I just ziptie it securely to something? Why was it mounted to the 2g coil pack originally? Just for fun, or does it have to have an electrical connection to it?
