  1. At te moment, the motor will go in stock, with a set of extractors and 3" exhaust, and fully tuned. Fully tuned around 220rwkw. But a VERY big useable power band. Once I put the cam in, 280/290 rwkw with still a very useable power band (2500 rpm to 7000rpm and instant throttle, and keeping the super short diff ratio) Pretty much well details on the swap, basically standard 5.7L 6speed manual running an adaptronic e1280s, camber arms, new coil overs, new seats, under the dash stripped out (no air con or stereo shit). Still debating on whether I strip the sound deadenin or not. Being setup for sprints, hill climbs and the rare cruise.
  2. Chris, before resetting the tune, have you put some magic Subaru Upper Cylinder Head treatment through it? I did mine (Many years back now) by ripping it all apart and scrubbing it blah blah blah... Still had gunk in it... Did the ol' Subaru treatment to it, by spraying the subaru shitdown through the actual AAC valve (You'll need someone to hold the revs up for you as it will cough and splutter like a bitch!) I'm thinking it might be a gummed up AAC is all...
  3. It's worth it purely for the shits and giggles in the Members area... :D:P

  4. Which way do we need to go with the Rack Brad? And what sorta of distance from exhaust port to strut tower do we have? They're on a 45 degree angle aren't they? As for pushing that car... I've done it enough...
  5. Most tracks have a 95DBA noise limit as measured 30 metres away from the edge of the track. EC is one of the only ones I know of in Aus that doesn't.
  6. Ouch! Nasty! So how long until it's all back together and looking pretty?
  7. Or you run a 320KM/H speedo face on a 180KM/H speedo...
  8. Hurry up and Join SAU:NSW. :P

  9. If things haven't changed... Neither can you...
  10. I want pics of the black one...
  11. You guys do realise the Oil Pump and the Cam backing plate have the timing marks on it so you don't need to mark timing belts and what not, right?
  12. LOL, just read the regs about how point score works... So basically in a single day, you actually race in 3 events... Might as well give points per session people go out... Also, the Holdens, and Mitsubishis and everything else aren't elegible for point score. They're not elegible for the competition...
  13. LOL, no they don't run a 3.8L. They run a 3.6 Alloytec, and a multitude of gearboxes which alter the performance. If we're getting into this one, on a good run, the Honda Jazz will out do certain Alloytec V6 Commos to 80KM/H... The real test is that it will be beaten by the commo on the 1/4 mile. I've seen many 300 and 400RWKW cars get munched in a traffic light GP, purely because they're a pig to get off the mark, but once above 100KM/H they really mumbo. The 0-100KM/H is HUGELY dependent on the launch...
  14. I think you'd find they've either been on a call out, or doing RBT.
  15. Double entered with him ^^^
  16. Get a loan PS: I'm sitting in mine at the moment... mounts should be being made next week... I currently have my feet up on what was the dash...
  17. Quite true there Chris, I keep thinking more in terms of track vehicles, where as you're in the street build side. On the street it won't be too bad, as you're not hounding it. I'm going to be remounting gauges up in a more "visible" area in my peripheral as I'll be tracking it alot.
  18. Also, natio park, look out for the kangaroo and deer... Stupid Deer are suicidal!
  19. I have the plans sitting on my desk waiting... And I figure once the R33 gets bent, it's being stripped out and most parts reused in it... Including the 5.7...
  20. I have my boost gauge down there, and there is a MAJOR problem, it's WAYYY out of your peripheral vision. Either on the A-Pillar, or in the cluster/above/beside it. Down in the console is wayyyy too far out of view.
  21. There is nothing wrong with yellow jackets. They work as well as split fires and brand new nissan coils. In fact, my Yellow Jackets withstood more abuse then my split fires did before one melted... Also, it won't be the plugs if he's swapped the coil packs and it has fixed said issue...
  22. If you were at SAU:NSW Christmas dinner last year with Alan Heaphy and Jim Richards, you'd understand why...
  23. Just to add on Terry's "Set of 4". You have to be VERY careful when doing these. The ONLY one of these roads I haven't come across Kangaroos on is Macquarie Pass. Everywhere else is full of them! (I nearly took two out in one go on Jamberoo Mountain Road 5 nights ago and I was 20 under the limit on the straightest bit of road on this trip)
  24. Who were cruising above the speed limit... The big thing to remember if you do organise one of these, unlike SAU:NSW cruises, you are NOT covered by public liability insurance.
