haha intighten you,

yes dood, you can put tomei cams in with adjustable gears or even just adjustable gears on your stock cams which can also give good low and midrange gains.

Depending on your other mods, you may be better off with just adjustable cam gears for a couple of hundred bucks and a couple of hour dialing them in on the dyno.

well i no for a fact that my mechanical engineer in malaga (briffa engineering) does install them and if i take you there and introduce him to you hell do them for you durt cheap char!

And yeh me mech has also been sayin that yeh adjustables are good for gains to start with cos you can change your power output in a certain rev range that you like! and then u can install cams to make it even better of a gain n the rev range!

My engineer is a bloody good bloke i mean i took my cousins gt4 to him and he did some work to it and hated workin with it afta a while cos its a twin boost pressure and we were gona install a GFB atomic bc on it but it kept spiking cos of it and it just pissed him off lol

But yeh neways if anyone needs somethin done let me no and ill ask him and see how much hell do it for and how long itll take for him to do it and ill let ya no! then ill just take you there to introduce him to you! Hes done many, many performance cars including a full rebuilt on a VL while installing a RB25 into it as well and i mean a 30k build hahaha!!!

    • 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.
