right..some of you guys are complete wankers but anyway theres always got to be a couple of keyboard warriors around...

After searching for a decent example and looking over maybe 15-20 lines in the last 2 months or there about i have found the one of me. Heres the link for it.

I got Ray and Pete over at RE Customs to have a look it and all was well. The car has a compression result of 155 across all 6 and Pete says there is no evidence on the chassis that the car has been in an accident. I took it to my local panel beater for an inspection and he couldnt find a spot where the panels didnt line up or where the paint looked dull because of dodgy work - more important he didnt find a spot of rust or bog. The car is basically in really good condition. I have over shot my budget a bit however as i planned to keep a couple of grand for a few mods straight away but thats not a real problem as ive got something which is going to last.

The car goes into Vicroads on tuesday for an inspection as ill be the first owner in Australia. All up including stampduty number plates booking fees etc it ended up $17220

There were plenty of other series 2's for under the 15k mark but many had been in accidents or didnt have good compression results.

Free plug to Ray & Peter at Re Customs and to Robert at Sabbadin Automotive who gave me great honest feed back.

Its got

3 1/2 inch turbo back exhaust

A pod and a BOV

soooo its pretty stock.

Mods soon to be will be a fmic and a comp first.

      Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.

      From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢

      Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.
