ahahah thats what he said to me then 2 months later they leaned it out on their dyno and blew my engine, bye bye piston 6 ringland :)

just keep an eye on ya engine warning light since u cant see a knock reading

can you post a dyno sheet and air/fuel ratios??

haha funny how "he'll" (you know who im talking bout) tell you everything will be ok then when you blow the motor up because the tuning was poor, he claims the ECU you picked was a bad idea, even though he recommended it, piston 6 is dead as a result :(

Havent done anymore mods yet, there are cams in it at the moment. And yeh it sticks to the road heaps well man cant even get the thing to slide sometimes. But i do have 19" by 10.5" rims, 265 Semi slicks cost me nearly $900 a tyre so if it didnt grip i would be scared lol. Only other mods i was going to do is probably forge the internals and then have hi boost set at around 24, main goal here is somehow try reduce the lag and hi 400rwkw, hopefully 10 grand gets me there, already cost me enoughhhhh!!

what wastegate are you using?

im going the smaller housing so should see less power but more response.

turbosmart external man, its frikn loud tho once u hit full boost, attracts a bit too much attention, so be careful lol, set me back around 700-800 i think

    • Hey everyone. Is there a way I can get the original window sticker (maroney label) for my 1995 R33 GTST? I doubt I’ll be able to ever get it but it’s worth a shot to ask
    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
