Had a nice surprise waiting for me at work this morning.

Last Years 300C Safety car from the V8s was waiting for me at my office :laugh:. Straight through 3" exhaust sounds REALLY TOUGH. Dont know what they have done but wheel spin when every you try and drive it either forward and back ( and not at 100% throttle :) )

i can say its the only time i have had TOLL paperwork stating

Departure : Mount Panorama

Location : ************

it looks as though it has had a very hard 6300Km's. plenty of paint damage, skid panels on the ground. It feels like it has done 600,000Kms.

Driving a left hand drive is really weird. Got some pics just need to find the cord to get them off the phone

fitted a GFB Stealth FX bov today, got it for 200$. got it on full 'silent' plumb back mode with spring strength around 80%, sounds funny when you let your foot off the gas..... :laughing-smiley-014:

out with the video camera Brendan you know we want to hear it :thumbsup:

hahahaha will do. did a recording on my mobile phone as I was testing. cant hear the 'flutter' sound under off-acceleration with only mild boost. with full bost all you hear are big "whooshes" but its the flutter that sounds funny. like a wrx with a dogbox and megaphone-atmo bov. not hugely audible but its there.

just need to add a small correction to the safc up at around 6000rpm, got a little ping.

funny shite. gone from wanting to keep it quiet to hiflow turbo, pod, whooshy bov, rumbling Kakimoto muffler, etc. makes a fair old racket now. sounds cool tho

;)

yeah i was thinking of new muffler 5" Kakimoto but want 5 stud conversion and new rims first if i do change i want subtle note all the time with a roar when above 4,000 atm its loud all the time

hey i think i forgot to give you a trader rating for that CPU sitting on my shelf ;)

Hey brendan!

How ya doing? How's the knee pulling up post surgery? Hope all is well and your enjoying (as best you can) your time off work. Sounds like you been having some fun with the car, will have to swing by and have a better look one weekend :down:

Cheers

Lee

yeah 4 sure !

:down:

pretty sore the past 2 days just after leaning over the bonnet installing the bov for half hour on saturday.

damn, all good tho coming along. start physio, etc this week.

:) w00t MV Autos today getting the shift kit installed and auto serviced :)

nearing the end of the mods

no more boooooooost, high rpm goodness, whoooooosh, boooost, higher rpm stress, ign cut, nothing.....nothing.......nothing......(ping), flare + change.

just BANG change

lol

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
