Two.06l??

Looks like a 2.06 litre...

Stroked RB20??? >_<

when i went to school 06 was 6...like 3.06pm...60 was 10x6...TWO.60L is more like TWO point SIXTY L.

im pretty sure it was the best representation of the engine capacity. No stroker or forklift engine here :rant:

ON topic...

car will be loaded up today and head up to Lillford Exhaust to have the side exit exhaust fabricated and also the 4.5inch to 4 inch 3 bolt to V-band adaptor made for the full Trust exhaust.

also hanging out for pics...

you're normally snap happy Paul, what changed? :D

the home PC kacked it...and my laptop is unable to have the Canon camera software loaded onto it due to the fact work has locked out admin rights on their PC's.

so no pics...come and see it in real life...much better than pics...pics have no sound!

Guilt-Toy...adjusted the idle this morning and fixed the 'ticking' noise...need to go buy a cheap ass timing light to adjust the timing...my expensive one seems to not like my car. Yes it does really lump over at idle.

Need a sound/youtube file to hear the lump

If not, ill have to come up and go for a ride. Ill bring mine

We only just got it running over the weekend, and i put in a "drive up on trailer tune" to get it to the dyno this weekend. It was running for 15 minutes this morning so all seems good so far.

Putting the wastegate on friday night took longer then expected. what a C*&NT of a mission that was!

Yes the wastegate was a Charlie Uniform November Tango...but in true DiRTgarage never give up style we got it sorted. Very happy with it now...bled coolant, checked oil levels, checked warm oil pressure and got front bar back on. Will go over later and drive it outside and give it a tub.

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
