The Aussies MAKE there OWN stuff
from apex seals
to EFI manifolds
to rx100 rx2 rx3 r4 replica parts
to engine management systems
fuel pumps
fuel regulators
blow off valves
boost controllers
wastegates
to engine adapters
transmission gears and LSD's
lightened flywheels
so and and so on
And your point is?&nbsp Just because the manufacturer stuff doesn't mean it's good...

From your list alone, I prefer...
apex seals - stock Mazda, from Japan
Fuel pumps - Aeromotive, from U.S. or Bosch, from Germany
FPRs - SX, from U.S.
BOVs - any number of Japan tuners
Boost controllers - any number of Japan tuners
Wastegates - Tial, from U.S. or HKS, from Japan
LSDs - Cusco, from Japan

Engine adapters can be made by any competent machine shop that can take precise measurements...

One of the main reasons that we manufacture our own gear is because we are an island in the Southern Hemisphere, traditionally it has been hard to get many products from o/s. Our poor exchange rate also makes it very expensive to purchase from o/s. We dont claim to make the best inthe world, but just because you don't choose to use them it definitely doesn't make us the worst. Just like US/Japan and every other country we make do with what is available to us. While I also like your version of the list and would love to use them, they are relatively expensive here in AUS.

Hi,

Some of the stuff made here in OZ I would say is close to the best in the World! Some may not be, but some is!

The Puerto Ricans
DO NOT make anything (except for chassis and fiberglass)
I lived in P.R for 5 years (even tho im not a P.R)
Like ReTed saind...and your point?

Most of the bits that make cars go fast are manufactured O/S. And, no offence, but the bits that may be made here are not manufactured by Maztech or RPM.

Trying to quantify your statment that Anthony and 1000hp are as good as what they say they are by saying the country they are from makes good parts, is a **** poor effort.

I respect Anthony for the times he pushed from both his RX3 and RX7 and from what GRUMPE told me about him as a tuner of Microtech. I respect 1000hp20B from the 20B of Corey Armstrong.

And as a side note, most of the Victorian tuners, maybe Anthony included, all use standard 2mm seals from Mazda. Most of the quick cars dropped a few tenths off their times from the use of airshifted gearbox, not a locally made BOV.

Hey Anthony sorry to hear...

I am glad that you have faith in your tuner, it is very hard finding someone that you can be happy with. It takes other shops with their customers to make this industry feesible. Good luck with your own project! Regardless of what is said on these forums, its your money and your car, if you enjoy it you have spent your money well!!
Thank you for asking, my recovery is flying along, and I hope to be back to 100% within 3-6mths. I will end up with severe scarring to my legs and thumb, only slight facial scarring, but I never won any beauty comps before so its no great fuss!
Hey Anthony sorry to hear what happened to you with your FD. Hey Anthony don't know if u remember but I was with the "Pepeloco Racing" 1971 Datsun 1200 @ Island Dragway for that IDRC import drag event where we chatted for a while. That was the day Marcos Acosta was testing the Micro-Tech set up on his 3 rotor. Anthony what happend? Marcos told me your tranny blew and gear oil all over ignited, are u going to stay active in drag racing? anyway Anthony I visit this rotary engine brotherhood(forum) everyday to try and help and stay intune with the wankel engine, hope all goes well for you... Judge Ito..
By the way Anthony Pepeloco Racing has improved his E.T. to 8.27 @164mph.. Full Metal 1/2 chassis Wankel Power............

Pepeloco Racing,
Congrats on the 27, I bet that was a wild ride!!!!
I believe either a injector or an injector o ring failed and pumped heaps of c16 all over me and the car, Did not take long to loose the lot. The three rotor was running sweet though it all caught fire at 170mph+. Shame I never got a number. I know you will understand that I will get back, I just cant help it. Once your bitten by hp its for life. Look me up at the Jersey NHRA rounds next month. Should be catching Siguel there.
Thanks for your concerns, they do mean alot.

BRINGING THIS BACK FROM THE DEAD?


Has anyone opinions changed with the releases of the LTX-12 and E11?

Does anyone have Experience setting up BOTH of the ECU's on a 20B?

Has Anyone done back to back runs on the same set-up (preferably the same engine) but with the 2 new versions of the ECU's?

Please refrain from the bashing I am just interested in Factual Information John (D659)

You can check out the Version 4 plus it can also run a 20b with trailing split.

e11 runs great, but it was a head trip to set it up and its very picky about stable voltages, and it wants lots of grounds.

Haltech is still working out the bugs on the E11(v2), as firmware updates are being released pretty regularly right now. Haltech is "in transition" right now as the company has been sold - please don't ask for more info, as I don't have a clue yet. This would interrupt normal everyday operations, so I would think there's going to be a slight pause for now. Hopefully, Haltech will be running better for us consumers.

I have still yet to come across another EMS that runs the 20B as nicely as the Haltech E11. I've heard the Microtech hasn't quite caught up on the Haltech E11 on 20B control - maybe our Microtech contingent can answer that question? I've heard Microtech is releasing a new ECU very soon. The other option is the Electromotive TEC3, but there are very limited experiences from those owners.

Right, it's time to give the Wolf some props. The version 4 is an entirely new beast compared to the v3. It can hang with anything else out there under $2000.
