thats the dude i was telling you about

Adrian: I have a contact who does guard flaring, I'll get the number for you. He did the gaurds on the sil for bugger all. I'm still waiting for Adrian to reply with a quote for your cooler piping too.

Also I'm in melb till tuesday with nothing to do. Does anyone need any parts brought home?

Rocking the GTR with full straight pipes and a touchy twin plate in heavy CBD traffic is definatelly an experience!

I think everyone needs to give these two videos a good watch

Hamilton driving the car Senna drove and won the Championship in

Fantastic stuff! I was lucky enough to have watched most of Senna's F1 career and that brought back some memories.

Unfortunately being born in 89' I missed it. But I do remember after he died my dad taking me to the starting grid on the Clipsal track and seeing Senna painted on pole position and people laying flowers down. Watching a clip of him a power sliding a turbo F1 car one handed. F1 need to bring back the turbo cars!

he is. but that also means he's pretty damn busy a lot of the time. instead of waiting for him to call you, call him and maybe swing by his workshop?

How much to get new breaks (what kind are good) all the way around + machined rotors?

machining will probably be under $100 for all 4.

as for pads, you can get qfm for as little as $80 per axle set.

ive used both the hpx and the a1rm pads on the 200 and have been quite happy with their performance, even if i have nuked a few sets at mallala. lol.

Won't sayb when I was born...but, I'm an old carnt!! I remember watching F1's here in Adelaide in the turbo era and I'll never forget how these things were chirping sideways from 2nd to 3rd gear coming out of Flinder St onto Hutt St. There has been talk in recent months about bringing turbos back to F1 in 2013.

Another +1 for AM Performance. Andrew went out of his way to fix a issue with a dump/front pipe I bought from him and didn't charge me he fitted it and it turned out to be a problem caused by a mechanic rather than his dump pipe.

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
