Pods need to be covered. Yeah artz yours does blend in also helps your running the crossover pipe. I had mine run down becide the plenum so everything was open. My BMW build will have a front facing plenum so gate is least of my troubles. Putting jez's kando to the test tomorrow it's drift day can't wait

Wakey wakey boys.

All Geared up ready to tow to eastern creek. I borrowed a mates go pro so there should be plenty of incar footage.

I got the tacho working now so atleast we can see rpm to boost response. Dont think the car will see much below 4000 though. Maybe in and around the pits.

I didnt get time to convert the speedo drive so there is still no vct. Should have that sorted before i get onto the dyno next with a 20psi tune. Then its straight to the drags to see what time and mph she can run.

If you can hide things then great. I must be lucky as my engine bay has looked like those pics since 2003 and never booked. So if your car externally is nothing flashy and your exhaust is quiet then there is surely a good chance you will never be asked to pop the bonnet

I have more or less gotten away with murder also when my cars have not been overly loud and have had respectable rims on them etc.

Cheap looking oversize rims and very loud exhausts will get u screwed regarless of how normal your car is. A well kept respectable car will go unnoticed in terms of them being total pricks. Then again it depends what your caught for too.

I love this thread. I wish I had another 6 so I can run a Kando... I think im better off with a stock position turbo on the SR though, good work to all the guys with nice Kandos on their RBs.

Zeeb I have an LS if you are looking, VT2 clubsport kitup with box etc.

Some of you have me on FB, youve seen my photos. Car is mostly done, not going back now :P SR all the way.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
