986 Performance parts wishlist

[rayner@r2specracing]

Hey guys i know its been along time, the delay has been due to me and my old business partner having some drama. Anyway, he's decided to quit and ive decided to stuck to it.

I have researched the spark plug tubes some more they will cost 120.00 per kit.

Is anyone still interested in doing this?

If I can get atleast 20 people to commit to buying it I will front the money to have them made and when they are ready I'll setup a group buy for them.

Let me know and once again I'm very sorry it took this long for a reply, but hopefully we can finally get some parts made.

Thanks

Only assuming that you would anodize those i.e. non-conductive (we went to the same common sense school right?) are these tubes/kit still available?

Changed the plugs yesterday on the car and the oem 'plastic' tubes are shot, cracked, and rather dangerous.... to the driver

you raise an interesting point about the leaking coils creating a voltage arc that shorts out sensors.

I can have the tubes ceramic coated. but that’s an additional manufacturing process. Then the next issue is how much current are we trying to shield from. 1V or 20,0000 V odds are if you have a cracked coil thats pumping out about 20000 v nothing is going to stop that arc it doesnt matter if the tubes are plastic or metal.

I think the best cure in this case is prevention by replacing your coil packs routinely.

Ceramic coating would unlock a big advantage though.
i'd be able to make the tubes from steel which would lower cost and has way better thermal properties than aluminium.

I finally saved up the money to do this so i there is still interest pm me or text me at 9407357295.

and I will have them made. I wont take any orders until I have the parts in hand. I just dont want to invest in parts no one wants

Did my own!

Reverse engineering those is rather elementary lolll and Fun! What the hell... took me half day, from model to turning them in the CNC lathe. Had a hard time finding pre-fab seals however but someone helped me out with that. Week later I had my six custom plug tubes installed in the box!

Screw steel mate, awful convections....similar to those of composites. But cheap to make that's an advantage! Made mine out of 7075 at temper 6 and type II anodized them to Mil Spec 8625 (20µ).

Seals are from an 'unknown' source/material but was told they were high temp o-rings. Unlike on that old solid model I found a minute ago, they are freakish purple colour :/

But then who cares lolll Good news is two years later, still no leaks.

Cheap Cheap, made in China my man $9.99. Good for life!

(those f n oem plastic tubes... mine were leaking hell-juice all over my floor)

So nine86 now that testing is over.......does this mean I can buy a set? If so I want.:dance:
