Another Very Happy Boostworx Customer!

Ah Will, you know me mate, I love thy bling

Yeah, between your wheels and my engine bay we've got it all covered It sounds reasonably tough for a 6. A bit loud though.

Thanks Brenton. I haven't forgotten about the BB PM either mate!

[Leeman]

G'day Joel,

Getting pretty close now mate. It's running. We've still got a dozen or so smaller tasks to complete (mostly asthetic) and we 'may' end up having to swap the exhaust housing & wheel over if it shows in tuning that it's too large.

See attached pic, taken 2wks ago.

Ha-ha yeah mate that A/C install is a classic! But it works. Yeah good to meet you too. The wheels on your 33 look awesome!

That's the mean engine bay you have going there, very impressed looks s@#* hot

[GFXman]

how long is a piece of string?

It'd just be nice to see examples of what people had done, and the cost that was associated with it.

whatsisname :

Your engine bay looks rather tidy.

I will be taking my car to Shaun once its all back and running smoothly. I need to sort out the fuel econnomy ( or lack of) and a bit of more loving for my engine.

It doesnt help having shit coil packs in missing so much that the raw fuel just goes out the exhaust. 127km at 1/2 tank. This is from filling it up on sat morning and driving it maybe 4 times since then.

Thats insanly bad. I pull that out of the first 1/4 of a tank. :S

A couple of things can stuff fuel economy. O2 sensor and injectors.

I bought a new o2 sensor no change in economy (~350km's to a tank), bought injectors fuel economy perfect again.

[Bl4cK32]

wonder if he pulls the injectors out they would look like yer old set eh cubes

[pixel8r]

Wow that was quick your already back for good?

Job prospects got better here? or didn't like brisbane?

Just too hard to leave the old lifestyle we know behind. Have many friends here and decided we just needed a break. Job prospects have been picking up quite considerably in adelaide also...

Its a bit weird but hey...

[Madaz]

youve goto do what you feel is right no point going to sydney qld where ever to make 10-15k a year more if your heart isnt there and your not happy

[sinistaGTR]

woohoo my cars at boostworx i pick it up on tues

[Tangles]

hey, Tuesday is My day !!

[Tangles]

big exhaust leak - cant get past 12pound, need studs replaced. so its a turbo/manifold off job, new oem gaskets etc. will get shaun @ boostworks to do it in the next few weeks

damn; although I knew it had an exhaust leak however I didnt realize it'd affect it this much. oh well.

[Bl4cK32]

bad luck

[Cubes]

So what did it make on 12pounds?

[Tangles]

umm, a little fiddle with the safc (everything was 'pretty off'), set fpr correctly, 160rwkw with the boost not being able to hold and dropping to 8pound I believe. boost guage shows it going to 0.5Bar and it feels as strong as previous, perhaps better?

Booked in for the Fri 16/3 to fit the adjustable exhaust cam gear wheel, do the manifold stud work etc, new gaskets and all that, & a proper retune. Got quote, its a decent price so I'll be happy with the end result Im sure.

Youd easily spend that on living expenses anyway. Adelaide is so much cheaper to live.

I was looking at your engine bay thinking there was a lot of stuff in there. I was hoping to see the beast have a dyno run.

I was wearing the Barca football top and cap. Sorry, I should have said hello. That was my white R32 GTR that Troy was working on.

[sinistaGTR]
