Modifing cars is a headf**k for starters ))

yes this is true. however when they sell DW knuckles as a bolt in solution and it is far from it you tend to get a little pissed off.

i had to modify the following

-camber arms

-traction rods

-machine up a 50mm spacer to sit on top of the coilover cause without it my car was slammed to the ground so hard haha

Awesome :yes: now i just gotta sort it and learn to drive :P Your car would weigh much less making it crazy fun..... Be interesting to hear your thoughts on the new setup and how it compares to the old!

yeah mine was pretty spastic with the neo combo at its peak!

here's a video i did at a grip day at mallala did a best of 1:18 flat which is pretty quick but considering i did it with a drift set up on 2nd hand street tyres is pretty funny haha.

haha yeah scrubbing big time.. the bit where it fills the cabin with smoke when doing that high speed 4th/5th gear kink is the suspension compression so much from the wing downforce and pushing the tyre into the cut metal guard under the overfender... left a nice groove in it thats for sure.

i have since then cut it higher up

small update... took it to All Type Crash who removed the banged up rear and fixed it all up for me.. sweet!

First time actually driving it with the 30DET today and i gotta say.... torque.. where have you been all my life! its not even tuned for the bigger motor but runs so well atm, gave it some boost (not much tho) and it just pulled effortlessly haha hopefully goes well!

tune tomorrow!

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
