what fuel pressure are you running to the carbs? Bike carbs are gravity feed so you need an inline fuel reg so you can dial it down to 1 or 2 psi

Been slowly spending a small fortune gathering all the parts that were missing from the car. I'll post updated pictures as I have the parts restored etc. The Toyota diff is coming out as it's a nightmare to sort the spacers out for certing, have an original one to go in. Stock struts with S13 brakes will go in the front again. I'm currently saving to have some sandblasting done so the engine bay is being stripped. Although I did throw my new carbs on before hand and took the car up and down the road ;)

These are the discs that are currently on the front. Pretty sure they're off a late 70's honda as they are 4x120 stud pattern O.o
They are mazda struts though.
