teins lifted, sleaved and engineered

new powersteering pump, it was leaking oil

new exhaust, old 1 was to loud

remove turbo timer, boost controller

remove gauges of A pillar

check steering wheel out, its an isotta so it was all good

stock bov to be fitted

things i had done whilst in shop:

full service and tune

new clutch

i had 4 defect stickers on my car, lol, and also i had to pay $68.50 to give them a f**king peice of paper (engineeres report) they r f**king flamin mongrels there, i hate that place, rip off government, but hows this when i went through they wre telling me that they got a holden straight off the production line and defected it???? what are the 5-0 driving around in?????? i think they should practice their preaching, bunch of cock stain he government and police r, not the blokes at regancy themselves, they r pretty cool, just following there rules, sorry for offtopic there, just make sure everything is in working order and legal, or u may aswell bend over and take it in the ass

Now i dont know why you bothered with it mate

$13K is a price of a 33 now anyway

and i dont know why you got your coilovers engineered.

i got mine through regency and i would be happy to say it all sent me back prob abt $800max

and i had to remove and change a lot of things on mine

that cost you 13 grand? dang. the bold text is my guestimate

new eye level brake light, (spoiler light) $200 ~

teins lifted, sleaved and engineered <$1500 ~

new powersteering pump, it was leaking oil <$500

new exhaust, old 1 was to loud shove a sandwich plate between the gasket $20

remove turbo timer, boost controller DIY

remove gauges of A pillar DIY

check steering wheel out, its an isotta so it was all good

stock bov to be fitted <$100

things i had done whilst in shop:

full service and tune

new clutch $1000ish

eye level brake light was 300, clutch was 900, teins were 1700 all up, and regancy wouldnt let them past without engineeres report, service and tune was 1200, also just membered that i had to get a new heater core which was 1100, exhaust was 2000, alot of it i needed anyway, and i did want the car there but when it f**ked up i couldnt be f**ked with it anymore, it was the last thing my perants bought me b4 they died pretty much, thats y i spent the money, it was a huge head f**k going through regancy, lol, and all the shit i got new instead of second hand shit, thats y is cost me $13,000 i guess, i know it was stupid but it did have sentimental value and now i just cant be bothered with it anymore, so now its for sale

    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
    • Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups. 
    • 75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
    • Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet
