  1. I think there are problems with mobile phones. Too many people are walking/driving/riding while using these, not looking where they are going... in addition, every smart phone has a music function, so more and more people are using that and no-one really seems aware of their surroundings.... In regards to bike Rego + licencing.. I think it is a daft idea. Sounds expensive and time consuming. Although some basic training/road etiquette in school wouldn't hurt.
  2. ^ Fine, Fine... A few quick updates. BODY Front guards WERE complete. We have decided to modify them. They have been reshaped and are looking AWESOME. Very unique. The front end is currently so wide, that my 18x10.5" +22 rims w/ 15mm spacers are TOO SMALL. I need more offset. 1500mm Type 5 Voltex GT Wing SOLD and is now being replaced with a 1700mm version of the same wing but with 40mm stand extensions. Evo 9 Rear Bar Installed Work on custom rear guards has started Work on custom front bar has started I was going to swap the bonnet for a Voltex unit, but I am undecided. At the moment there is an 8 week wait on the bonnet if I was to swap it out... ENGINE Engine has been complete and on the stand for a while now. Debating about swapping my FP HTA Black out for a EFR8374. CHASSIS / SUSPENSION Currently considering ordering Racefab front and rear chromoly subframes, and chromoly north south bar. If I DO go down this path, it will certainly stiffen up the chassis a lot more, and will drop approx. 30+kg from the car. Currently Talking to Road2Race about chassis and suspension setup.
  3. ^ That's what keeps pushing me away #@SimonR32 The EFR's are too big/bulky/odd shaped. Love the Tech, but the packaging isn't right
  4. Just a nudge to the top. These are still very much available if anyone is hunting for some reasonably priced new rims! If they don't sell in the next week or two, they are going on eBay or something...
  5. don't mess around with the Evo turbo chargers. It will simply choke your engine. The turbine housings are too small. Just grab yourself an EFR turbocharger, and live with amazing boost response, and fantastic power.
  6. Bump to the top guys and gals! These would look EPIC on a GTR.
  7. Bump to the top! Still for sale! Its a bargain guys! Get on it!
  8. Since when? I actually believe it is the same / similar housing and turbine to the GT37 series. But could be wrong.
  9. Its based off a 8mm BB Garret CHRA..
  10. Generally, yes it will create more drone then a similar manual model.
  11. ^ MUCH nicer housing.. Don't look ugly, and are NO WHERE near as bulky!
  12. But I am annoyed... AGAIN they are missing the point! MOAR twin-scroll needed!
  13. Nah, I'd get the FP 6466TZ over that one. Faster spooling, same power. This new turbo is a game changer and will completely nerf the HTA3794R, especially with the Super94 in that range as well. http://store.forcedperformance.net/merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=FP&Product_Code=NTFP6466TZ&Category_Code=Turbo-FP
  14. 0.85 A/R T3 housing.. why not? lol
  15. Considering I am actually in town for this, I am interested.
  16. So! Exciting news people!!! Forced performance have just announced the release of their new FP 6466TZ!!! Basically it has the same/similar wheel dimensions as the uber turbo, PTE6466 by precision but uses Forced Performances new HTZ type aero design. Same design used on the Super99.. I am personally very excited about this new turbocharger. I cant help but think that FP have shot themselves in the foot AGAIN with this new turbo. No twin-scroll housing options...
  17. Deffo follow matt's advice above! You might just need to have a look and do some research. No idea what the cost would be to ship to WA, but more then happy to do it.
  18. Hey guys... Im on the hunt for a light vehicle engineer that I can consult in regards to my current build. Can anyone reccommend someone good?
  19. Well done to all involved. Wish I could have been there to see you all and cheer you on, but due to personal reasons I couldnt make it. Well done to all involved!
  20. BUMP to the TOP! Will take $2,600 for rims + tyres. all brand new, only mounted on car in garage for sizing purposes 2 weeks ago.
  21. Perhaps they should look at a more compact compressor housing as well.
  22. Not really. Just looking to sell - These are a reasonable price for what are brand new rims.
  23. Agree'd. VERY impressive turbo that would be awesome on something with more displacement..
