Spotted Andrew (Nightcrawler) turning off of Hancock Rd today. Man your car sounded sweet as coming off boost as you exited that round about! Waved at ya and you saw but had a wtf look on your face as you waved back, think I caught you by surprise

haha yeah mate I came flying around the corner and saw the car and took a few seconds to click - white GTR, black bonnet .... hang on that's Luke!! Got the wave off a bit late, but saw ya mate. I actually did a 'spotted' in your new car thread last night :)

Glad you liked the note of my RB - I love it too :) .... and that was with the exhaust valve half closed!

Haha, I noticed that post in the new car thread. Believe me both me and my passengers thought "Ohhh.... nice!" when we heard you boost around the corner. What's the 2530 like? Pretty responsive?

yeah mate the 2530 is unreal .... heaps of low down torque - she makes boost from around 2,000prm and I almost never need to go over 5,000rpm as the power comes on so strong .... and there are speed limits to consider :wave: It is still not tuned properly and as always I have more goodies in the shed to go on - but I never have the time to spend on her ....

    • This morning I carefully reinstalled the manifold and started looking at a couple of things I need to do.  Heat wrap arrived sometime today so I popped into the shed with the missus dishwashing gloves and started wrapping the first half of the dump and the screamer/plumb back.  Once I do the second half I'll be able to final fit the turbo and exhaust up.  Also pulled the harness out today and started terminating it at the ECU end. A connector is done, just need to run the remaining wires that arent in the harness - 12v, gnd and couple I/O
    • A31 is pretty much the same thing without HiAIDS I mean CAS, no improvement lol. Not to late to send it.
    • Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though. 
    • 215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.  
    • That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.
