    5) Club Deutsche - German Hot Hatch Owners

    7) Ford Owners Club Australia
    8) Honda Owners Club / Nulon

    This year, there are four events

    1) Skidpad

    [nsw] Ame Tracer Tm02 Gtr Size

    in For Sale (Private Car Parts and Accessories)

    Posted · Edited by Tonba

    Hey everyone.
    I am selling a set of brand new TM02 Tracers in Dark Gunmetal. These are 18x10.5" +22. Priced for a Quick sale @ $1,650 pickup.

    Reason for sale is that I needed wheels with more offset. Please PM me, email me ([email protected]) or msg/call me on 0411171571.

    Don't post in this thread because I have a horrible habit of not checking.


    These can be sold with some used 295/30/18 Semi Slick's (used for one trackday) for a total of $2,200. Please let me know ASAP~


    [Closed] Borg Warner Efr Series Turbos

    I think we need to be a little more realistic in turbo expectations.

    The EFR7163 is rated at 60lbs or 600HP MAX. That is fully maxed out, providing the engine can take that airflow efficiently. 600HP is around 447kW at the ENGINE.
    Assuming 20% driveline loss, your already talking about approx. 358kW @ wheels.

    ^ This is all assuming the turbo is running to its limit and driveline/dyno losses are capped at 20%.
    To be honest, I wouldn't be expecting more then 330~350kW / 442~470HP at the wheels with a EFR7163.

    In saying all this, your setup does seem to be slightly down on power, and seems to spool at little slower.. I would start looking at exhaust restrictions first. Make sure your exhaust is AT LEAST a 3" ID...

    Hey everyone...

    A LOT has changed in the last 7-8 months and the car has taken on more of a track focus rather then street.
    I have started a web page (http://akracing.me) and facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/AlexKingRacing) so that it is easier for people to follow the builds progress (easier to post in one place!)

    As a summary;

    • Everything to do with A/C and heater has been removed.
    • I have purchased a EFR8374 with a T4 1.05 A/R rear on it.
    • I have just fabricated a 6pt roll cage
    • Installed a Velo Apex Seat (hans compatible)
    • Spare wheel well removed and replaced with alloy flat floor
    • Wiring harness has been stripped down and all redundant wiring gone.
    • Door Cards are gone, and I am currently making some alloy replacements
    • Focus on Aero rather then just wide body..
    • New Front brakes are being made, ready to be bolted on in Jan
    • Fuel system has gone and now going to a surge tank setup (rather then in tank)

    Thats about all I can think of!

    I hope everyone had a fantastic Xmas!
