Oh they'd hold up alright with his driving style....you really have to keep that thing above 6-7k for a while and around long corners and shit to start starving the bearings. Oh, and a dyno at a certain workshop that will not be mentioned will also do it :D

Just run an extra L of oil for track days ;)

Blanchview is free, Nick :P

Non-members still pay a fair bit. I'm not poor but I have reasons to be saving as much as I can at this point in time so I'll have to pass on Happy Laps until things settle down a little on my end.

Moreover, am looking forward to catching up with everybody and any new members that show up :)

BTW, why does everybody think Chris drives his car slow? My reputation is unmatched 'round these parts.

Yeh they do cost a fair bit these days! It's more for the social side of things than anything...kinda forgot that they put it up by like $20 =/ Used to be $30 for non-members grrr

Yeh well I'm an unemployed bum too haha...but I reckon I might end up going yet.

Haha, well, you reckon I drive slow....you should see Chris. I almost stall out when driving off at the lights behind him ;) jk

What's with all the picking on me as to how I drive my car? I drive my car with the respect it deserves. I on the odd occasion give the old girl a squirt and maybe take the revs past 4k. I know I baby the car but if any of you owned it would yous drive it any differently to the way I do?

Anyone is welcome with any car. Except Nick and the General lee ;)

Although hell be there come hell or high water. :/

I wasn't giving you sh1t? I'd do the exact same. It's quite refreshing to see one being preserved. :)

    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
