Also John hows the SSQ

big, shiny, heavy. waiting for me to obtain tools to put it on. The other one is big, not as shiny, slightly heavier, and waiting for me to talk to Dan about where/how to attach that one (it goes into a pipe somewhere).

Once I've given them both a bit of a thrashing I'll let you know how they work out :(

also - for those who are up on the current what's what with my car.

I'm just waiting on my boost gauge to arrive in the mail :(

allllllso - for anyone to field. Do I really NEED an aftermarket ECU to hit the 300 killerwasps mark?

yeah you do, the stock ecu will start being gay before then, especially given that you will need to change injectors...but the only reason i suggested vipec was because you mentioned getting rid of the afm, if you are happy to keep the afm nistune it.

soooo......

Avatar is a complete piece of boring ass shit. Only good thing about it was getting to see that silly mole Michelle Rodriguez die again. Predictable rehashed phone in hack of a movie.

How do I go about getting back the 2hs 41mins of my life? Does anyone have a flux capacitor?

Avatar's not THAT bad... its the same old story... boy meets girl, boy overcomes challenge, boy gets girl... Pocahontas anyone?

The 3D was pretty I just wish they made 300 in 3D...

head.......... assplode....

so many different ways.

Ok. This week = nistune vs vipec study. Hopefully brain doesn't melt down.

Thanks Andy. I was leaning towards GTR injectors. They should be ok shouldn't they?

nistune is a lot cheaper and more than capable, vipec has a lot of stuff you will probably never use. if you are happy with keeping the AFM i would seriously go the nistune, i wouldnt be able to justify the cost of the vipec. GTR injectors will be plenty for your application.

The graphics really didn't do anything for me. I did like the light up floor... but it was cooler in "Big" because it was a piano then, and original. And as fas as I'm concerned the movie "Field Of Dreams" had MUCH better scenery effects.

The animals were all just... lamepants. Each animal had a different roar of different dinosaurs from Jurassic Park. The black panther thing was the T-Rex, the little coyote things were the Dilophosaurus, the horse things were the raptor "honk" and the birds were the raptor "hiss".

The "helicopters" made NO SENSE AT ALL. If those blades are encased in a big circular shield, then they shouldn't sound like helicopter blades because the tips aren't cutting through the air making that "WHUP WHUP WHUP" sound.

..so... nothing really stood out as original, or groundbreaking. Was just a 3hr story that could have been easily half that. Only that wouldn't have stroked Cameron's ego quite as sufficiently.

and 300 would still have been a terrible movie even if it was in 3D.

I'll keep that in mind whilst doing my "research" :(

The only reason to watch avatar was at the movies, on the big screen, in 3D. Anything else and it would have just been shit.

Hell it was shit at the movies too, just epic 3D shit :(

i is back from the west.

John:

Make a date, im good for this weekend if you, jason, martin are.

German club wednesday night sounds good.

farkers, i miss out on german club

on a funny side note, on our way to our hotel from the airport in NY, drove past 3 separate sports fields, on 2 of those, people were playing bloody cricket.

these were three separate sports fields in three different suburbs. last thing i expected to see here was cricket.

Exactly, its all it was.. watching it in 2D is like watching a dvd on a 30cm CTV.... cough cough

300 was great for the action, what more do you expect of Spartans?

This weekend probably not great, mothers day on sunday.

I can probably do saturday though if you want

+1

I'm not surprised, cricket is awesome.

What about sexy dave?

is sexy.

SPARTA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

just back reading, yep john you'll need an ecu/chipped ecu to run 440cc injectors and to make 300hp

agreed vipec would be over kill

aaaaand! agreed sexy dave is so sexy

    • Please use a modern ECU. PowerFC with the Nintendo Gameboy controller is horrible. It's not 2005 anymore.
    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
