oooo more boost off the line time :rolleyes:

$60 each ... not MUCH less than the sards ... but then i guess you dont have to get collars

Mine is a "custom jobbo" also ... a 12 though ... full sequential fuel / waste spark

Look forward to seeing your times drop mate!! Use all of that 2800 stall :D

UPDATE:

Well satuday did and didnt give the results we wanted.... kind of... haha, well we had it on the dyno for fcken ages trying to get the thing to run right... it was being a bit of a pig... leaking oil from strang places, spitting belts off and what not... just the usual teathing problems when u start leaning on cars a bit hard... Well its all sorted and the best reading we could get off the dyno was 378hp@10~11psi.... now although this doesnt sound like the biggest gain we are up 48hp with double the boost..... but the amount of torque that increased cause the car to wheel spin on the dyno.... after taking the car for a quick spin around the block it became evidently clear.... This car is making a serious amount of power... way more then the dyno was showing..... at a rough guess i would confidently say ive achieved my goal of 400+

But time will tell, its going to willowbank on wedensday so for those who want to come watch... its crunch time.... and for those who are wondering, yes i will have my tighty whitey flame proof undies on

we'll see how it goes...

ill take the digital video camera, when i finally work out how to get it on the computer ill kindly ask someone to host it for me :(

As i said im perplexed at the dyno result, and i just cant get it to hook up on the street even with 265's on it, so yeah the strip will tell the true story... just gotta try get some sleep the next two nights.... im so farken excited...

Pretty farken stoked with that... still a little more in it... its wheel spinning with the slicks on and i cant run any lower pressures, im thinking a new set of slicks may be what the doctor ordered.

What sort of rims/slicks are you currently running?

congradulations and celebrations!

thats a fantastic time. How was the gearbox with the manualization? getting mine manualized and valve body modded soon.

Do you feel rewardrd for all your hard work yet?

Also do you have a cage in your car? ANDRA will be causing you hasstles soon :)

Thanks heaps guys, yeah it feels unreal!!

The gearbox is great, its spinning 1st to 2nd on the slicks, so thats a pretty good indication its shifting pretty hard.

Funny u should mention the gearbox... it started spewing fluid out one of the senders on my last pass last night... doesnt look serious.. will have a good look at it tonight.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
