It lives

Had my Indy running for the first time tonight. The wiring has been a 2 month torture of a job. The injected R1 is complicated enough but the prescence of a Thatcham alarm in the loom when I got it was a real pain to fathom. Thankfully all is now sorted thanks to my mates nephew who is a bit of an electronics boffin - even knocked up a nifty little box of tricks to mimic the exup servo. R1 clocks all wired up and no fault codes.
Just down to me now to finish trimming and then see what Mr SVA has to say

Looks fantastic! Great job!

I think you might have a few people asking about the box of tricks that your mate's nephew knocked up to mimic the EXUP. Any chance you could ask him for a circuit diagram? Would be much appreciated!

Looks like a great place to build in that garage of yours. How long did that take to build?

Chris.

Thanks for the comments guys. Check out http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/R1-Stickers_W0QQitemZ8002488238QQcategoryZ10490QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem for the stickers. These are the same ones I got and from the same guy. Look very good on - in fact when I put them on my mate got me to get him some for his R1 Mini rally car. If anyone wants a similar exup box I can give them the email address of the lad that did it and they can drop him a line. It was based on one on the bike transplant site but had to be altered slightly for the injection motor.

The garage is cool, it is actually my mates (R1 Mini man) garage but he lives down the road from me. We built it on a night and a weekend as time allowed.

Ta for that. What wheels are those by the way? 17's? 15's? Wolfrace?

Look sweet.

Chris.

Wheels are 17's. Can't remember the make off the top of my head but were a bit of an ebay bargain. Stickers will look good Paul - really nice quality. Do I take it from your avatar that you have bought Drew's car - very nice it looks too
