yeah, the guy my mate is gettin the sus/axles/brakes thru just needs a stud pattern. 5x114.3 gives us the most flexibility (ford, nissan, toyota, mazda, etc).

also will be in contact regardin them stockies :happy:

i hate cars sometimes!

Car is in getting about $1000 worth of work done to her :happy: Im carless until at least wednesday if not longer :D

All new hoses.. thermostat.. cooling system flushed and new coolant, amongst other things.

flick, the hose that gave out on you sounds like the one i had give out a couple of times. cost me about 600 bucks over both times to just have them replaced. woulda lost coolant without knowing it? not until it decided to boil over?

well temp never really changed at all. I didnt have a clue anything was wrong until i got to work and saw the coolant pissing out everythere and steaming! The hose was pretty much split in 2 when i got to the mechanics.

Decided to replace a few other hoses along with it, cos theyre sure to go very soon too

:D i used to work for Olympic Trailers :) making 6x4 5x8 custom and horse float side's and tail gates

in a day from nothing to complete chassis i used to make 2x 6x4 that's cut and bend all my own materials

oh, and a small note

the process is started, my trailer is about to be started :P. Once its built, my mate has said he will be happy to build more (and to your specs). Designs are ADR approved, so will be easy to get passed through a regency inspection to gain registration as well

i'll have my trailer by the time shepparton comes round (give or take a week or two prior to having to go)

I would't mind having a look at that when its finished Matty, as i use to build custom made trailers for 5 years, oh and you dont need to take it to regency to get rego, just need to take it to a registerd trailer manufacture for a quick visual inspection to get it rego'd
hears a pic of one of my old creations, full box chassis, full tilt, winch, side mounted spare wheel, hide away alloy ramps, led lights, 2 pack paint. :bunny:

    • I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now. 
    • You sir, big win tonight. Precision never supplied compressor maps in the past and Idk when they started, but it seems they only offer for a few of the older gen2's which is exactly what I have. I punched in some numbers and seem to have gone with the wrong turbo. 600-700whp isn't in the most efficient area and is close to the choke line. 800whp is well off the map. Punching the numbers into a 68mm gen2 turbo map is bang on in the center. Here I was thinking going smaller would shift the power band down, but in reality it would just make it so much worst due to my rev limit. I would have never thought. 
    • Increasing overlap will bring the torque down earlier (and make your idle sound sick lol). Worth a shot (if you dyno time) to experience a bit (providing you are confident your valves won't kiss your pistons). Is to just take off 5 degrees across the boosted area of the map, and then retard the exhaust cam let's say, 3 degrees at a time and then overlay all the runs with VCT on all the way and VCT off as soon as you make positive pressure. Ideally you would have a total of 6x overlays to looks at 0 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve 0 exhaust & VCT on all the way -5 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -5 exhaust & VCT on all the way -10 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -10 exhaust & VCT on all the way Just leave your O2 wideband closed loop on for all of the boost area & RPM, and hopefully there isn't too much fuel correction needed and the Haltech is fast enough to compensate (I do this, then apply the correction to the main table). Getting that overlay data should give you a good indication of what to aim for.
    • So, my main limitation here is that the car does not have an oil pressure sensor by default, just a switch. As part of my tune I bought an oil pressure sensor upgrade so I now have access to oil pressure levels and logging rather than just the boolean behaviour of the switch but this means I need to use the tuning app to display this value. So, this rules out using any other app on the iPad. The app will also flash when pressure drops which is a nice feature. I have replaced the centre screen with an Android one, which is awesome for Android Auto, but I think it might be too far away and out of my line of sight. I might add some gauges to it this weekend and just see. I guess if its just temp and oil pressure I can make them massive! 🤣  
    • This is what the look like normally. Except we only got the 2 doors locally
