Ok its come time for me to sell my pride am joy to fund my new project

Ive had this car since february this year, i can honestly say ive never had a problem with this car, its reliable as all hell and i used to drive to nourlunga everyday for tafe so the last 10,000 kms are pretty much highway driving and it gets serviced every 5000ish.

Only problem ive had is i snapped the belt that runs the waterpump, watched the temp go up a little an pulled over an diagnosed it straight away. happened almost a year ago an its never overheated since! even on those 40 degree days driving to adelaide

Other things you should know:

Interior is mint bar the rear side panels and bubble in the dash

Passed regency no worries 12ish months ago

All new bushes throughout the car

I have tried my best to remember everything but theres probably some things ive missed.

ANY mechanical check is welcomed as long as i dont have to leave my car anywhere (as its my daily) and as long as it doesnt cost me. as i said it will be on the dyno this week so ill see if there are any problems and get a power reading.

UPDATE: Pulled just under 160kws on the dyno @ 9psi with no boost controller. Guy from jazmac couldnt believe how healthy the engine is!!

Boost controller set for low boost= 10psi at around 165ish kws and high boost= 14psi at around 190ish kws (may even crack 200) will get it on the dyno again if i get time.

    • The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!
    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
