Me little piece of crap Corolla got defected on Friday night............ They defected it for having the track out of the guard on the drivers front wheel, and on the paperwork they put down it was a MAJOR defect, so i questioned him on how it could be a major defect and why he is sending me to Regency and why i couldn't just go to Sturt Cop Shop, and unfortunatly he showed me the book and wasn't much i could do.......

In saying all of this the cop actually rang me back the next day(must have been thinking about it/me) and said that i could take it to Sturt Cop Shop, I was cheering, couldn't believe my luck!

lol as if it got defected. poor corola.

i just noticed you sig slimjim 173.6 thats not from your GTR :/ ?? got to be a mistake

Yeah thats from the GT-R, but as Cubes said I've heard that's normal for a stocky one. Although it does have pods, 3 inch zorst from the dump pipes, and is running 11 psi (no boost controller just because of the zorst I think)

Not sure about the torque reading, I've uploaded my dyno sheet, I think I read it right haha.

Oh and it's rwkW, at BoostWorx

^^now called Synergy.

i just got my car back from boostworx, 143rwkw, bit of a drop from 150kw at turbo tune, but it was a hot day at boostworx.

i had just a 3inch straight through from cat-back when it got 150kw at turbo tune, it now has a pod, 040, and FMIC when it got 143 at boostworx. now needs the bleed valve to go on and it should get 150-160kw.

hey, i just had a brain buzz about you fellas with dashmats on the dashboard, u reckon theres any chance that when you pay for a parking docket to park in the city that at around 12-2pm your car could catch on fire because the sun magnifies thru the windshield and causes the paper to catch on fire thus causeing the dash to set alite? call me crazy but i think its plausible on a 43 degree day.

yeah... im on emergency report status only lol. i only handle the big problems here.

EDIT: I made that post a bit after 9 not at 8:14... what part of Adelaide do you live in? perth?

why not, im on a computer the whole freaken day, i got access to about 2 dozen wholesaler lists in adelaide on computer parts, im buying a car on friday which is a skyline, and I got a wealth of knowledge a post away and plenty of experiences to share with ya'll.

like last night i learnt how to drive manual, in a beefed up Sil80, within 10 minutes i got pulled over by cops and he tried to defect me (well my mates car) My mate just got out of regency recently. He flashed some papers, told the cop that last time it cost him 700 bux (the guy that pulled me over was the same guy that sent him to regency in the first place). and the cop let him off clearly knowing that isotta steering wheels are nto ADR approved nor are boostguages on the steering column... as per thread "A Good Read" he is one of the marriage counsellour type cops, asshole.

and then we won indoor soccer 2-1 at findon.

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
