when were you sneek off to oran park mate, pit crew?

Yeh mate, helping my mate with his Saloon Car, will be on Speedweek on the 12th Nov i think. if you watch it he's #80 in a falcon! Left Thursday morning at 4am towing the car, and got back 8am Monday, you could say a quick trip! :happy:

I could have got some silver tint but it would have cost alot more than i paid ;)

Some of the guys at wynns can do some great tint jobs. i'll try and get some pictures of our tinters car when he gets it back. he has silver tint with flames cut out and red tint for the flames

just thought id mention im an idiot

left my lights on 2day 4 some reason

went 2 jump start my car

and somehow put leads on wrong way and by the time i realised the leads were melting, i heard weird noises n smoke everywhere lol

then it took about an hour afta i started the car for everything to seem to go bk 2 normal. my alarm was making wierd noises but then started working again after a while

any1 know if i would have done anything bad to the car? would have been connected for about 15 secs.

that doesnt sound good at all mate. but to put your mine at ease, an alarm making funny noise is a concern. although mine played up a while back in winter just before i fried my starter motor but its fine now.

been driving all day 2day, seems ok.

although i think ive detuned it, it really laggy and loose power over 4.5k

time 4 a tuneeeee

also need to get front pads, any1 know the type they r, cos every time i go mechanic he had to take them off, trace them and fax 2 his supplier 2 get the right ones in, so i wana know wat type so i can go get the myself

lol your lucky.. I bought a new battery, bloke asked me what side i want the positive I said top right. Got home, it was going dark, couldn't see too well hooked battery up. Upon touching the last terminal i saw a big spark and a big crack noise from the fuse box.

Blown powerfc, blew multiple cheap fuses under the dash and an expensive $35 75amp fuse in the fuse box.

It was a cheap batter so it had the + and - pressed in to the top plastic, so not easy to see at night. :P

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
