No, still waiting on the headers, these things take time and money, I not know what I am wanting to do first, the car is like a two year plan I hope by the end of two years it will be finish to a point I am happy, have to higher stand then again that has always been me with things I buy.

The exhaust project fully finish is like $1,500.00 around about. so getting done in stages. Apart from that I am buying up speaker compoents at the moment, like I have already spent about $1,500.00 at Rocky Car Sound with only a headunit and alarm plus more gear being held for me.

Dude, relax. It's all good. First time out there, no one's expecting a record-breaking pass. :cheers:

And those stats are never really accurate... my gts should be about to break 14s, (I hope) and you're faster than I am.

sciby if you don't do 14s I will eat my hat. Hell i did a 15 flat when my car was stock and running. I managed a very average 14 with more engine issues than you can poke a stick at .... you should creep into the 13s ..... well I think anyway ..... Dev relax you'll do a 13 .... but 12s are more likely ....

Who cares it just all fun that whole idea hey.

We will, its just fun to try and guess what times a car will do. althouhg last time i had quite a few people tell me that i would do a 13 without adoubt but I never ended up doing one so it was a bit disappointing ......... hmm I better shutup now don't want to have some be disappointed in their car .... anyway guys a 13 second street car is still damn fast and would beat the majority of cars on the street .....

Sames. It would be cool if everyone could just mellow. Anyway How am i going to mount this camera in the car on saturday and not get in the shit?

Very easily, the people at the drags dont seem to mind, we have strapped camera's in loads of peoples cars, from DC's to Big bills falcon. Just make sure it is in tight, both times we have just dodgied it up and used the camera strap as the support.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
