OK OK lol........ Well ill start talking bout the boring stuff first like how it drives off boost haha!:nyaanyaa:

Im actually very surprised at how torquey it feels off boost it almost feels as pokey as my FG falcon ute and oddly enough doesnt seem my fuel economy has really changed from 200kw-288kw in fact so far it seems slightly better now with an hour or so on the dyno and bit of cruising and giving it a squirt here and there i done a smidge over 200km on half a tank .

Now to the fun part BOOST! Ok so 1st gear doesnt really exist as you probably cover 20m before you are looking for 2nd lol in second gear it really starts to haul ass at bout 3800 now and is breaking traction at bout 4200 with my kaaz 2way and 255s and it doesnt stop pulling all the way to the limiter and if i stay on it into 3rd gear she chirps and spins for a second then hooks up and away she goes and my evc 6 is registering 22psi at around the 3500 mark! I havent given her a good run in 3rd as you can imagine you are in the bye bye license zone with some spirited driving in the 1st few gears with a few revs in 3rd there arent many numbers left for the needle to go on the 180km/h speedo. Id like to organise a cruise 1 weekend soon so if there are any sydney people reading this get at me and lets talk bout a nice drive to a nice destination..........:thumbsup:

Now mr GTScotT im thinking you should have a tinker with my boost controller when we both got some free time cos i think there is probably a little bit of tweaking to be done with that controller :thanks:

lol stop talking about the bloody HTTP and talk about the bloody car!

      Help please! Hole ontop of box?

      By Chupapy · Posted

      I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box

      So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.

      Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo

      Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
