Atm, me and 4bidn1 have removed hypergear G3 and sent if of to get new design rear turbine wheel, replaced 044/surge tank setup

with intank 460 walbro, shifted Z32 into cooler pipe in a 3 inch alloy tube, and changing water injection system to a air/water atomiser setup

with no pump.

and looks wise have fitted a vented carbon fibre bonnet, just need ganadors now to finish it off..

cheers

Finally took a pick with the Akebono's on. Nice to fill out those rims :)

Getting there slowly, bit by bit. Need the other front bar & spoiler fixed & modified next I think, then back to under the bonnet stuff

Looks great Cam; what are your underbonnet plans with this one?

Needs the other front bar back on first, this one is the aero-less spare that I modified in my non-pro plasti-welding fashion :unsure:

Planning to chuck on some headers and my decat pipes... but I plan to install hydrogen injection prior to that for a number of reasons, one of which is a reduction in emissions/smell due to a lack of cats.

Still have quite a list of planned changes after those (quite a list actually) so will see how we go...

Your new turbo ;) :

Did 80k service + fitted my de-cat/ed dump pipe. Pretty surprised at how much better it goes, can only imagine how good it would be with a proper aftermarket one.

Now have to install wideband O2 to the front pipe, then it's ready for tuning

Oi I did ask you and you said they were ok!!! :whistling:

Why can't Cihan print out dyno sheets...LOL

Also, everyone thought I had an air leak somewhere...cos there's a pretty loud hissing noise when it hit boost.

Cihan can print dyno sheets, when the printer has paper. :P

It's not hard to check for boost leaks, unless you want it done remotely... Drop down mate.

Finally got my gas struts regassed today; no more getting belted in the back of the head when I throw backpackers in the boot.

Guess I'll have to get a bat or something to knock them out now.

Traded mine in yesterday....

Sad to see it go after 5 years good service, but a 09MY 370GT sedan is helping...

Been a great few days in Melbourne for a 245kW rwd car... :-) missing the AWD already..

Nice!

Can you get the sedan in a manuel, or are they all auto?

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
