Coupe wont be legit for southern cruise Vaughan

Luke, Rapid performance tuned mine down here in Timaru - I am sure they will tune yours, but you need to get all sensors working & the thing firing before you take it in, or they prob wont want to know about it...

No problems popping in to view the coupe after southern cruise, assuming its at home and not at Hadlees for final touch up / detailing

well done kitch, I will take heed when doing my fuel lines, as usual you are forging the path for all.

Tuning wise are you running a sensor or wide band or something in your exhaust to calibrate the co levels ?

yes I have a wide band. but not using in tune at this stage as my tuner said readings were all over the show, also not using MAP sensor either...... just engine speed & throttle position

Thanks to Brendan (Mint16) helping our a Datsun brother, and getting my brothers 310 running mint,
and help me put gearbox back in the coupe yesterday.

Stoked I have got coupe running properly (even blatted it up the road a few times)

Unfortunately gearbox has to come out (again...) as under engine load still have a fuel leak.
will get motivated and pull it out one night this week
