inb4 3 way rolling drag between leigh, turbo dragon and myself

We're all RWD yeah? We can do standing start, but not much forward movement will be happening for the first 3-5 seconds for anyone though. Will be a great smokeshow though :cheers:

Shitty suspension and stock diff I wont be going anywhere till 2nd-3rd gear

Pretty sure Leigh's supercharged auto will demolish me from a standing start

Yay! I've decided to supercharge the 6L and car is booked in for the 30th to get the charger fitted and tuned :woot:

Decided to go for one of these bad boys, mainly because it looks stock-ish:

Looks pretty inconspicuous despite the badging. How much power you expecting? Who is doing the tune?

Shitty skyline suspension > "above average" commodore/falcon suspension ;)

Yah, liking it cos there's no massive supercharger belt out front and almost everything is hidden under covers. Might have to find a way to cover up the badging, like vinyl wrap it or something haha Has 12" long inlet runners so apparently the torque gains are massive when compared to Magnuson and Whipple chargers.

MPW will be doing the work and specialise in boosting 8's. They installed and tuned the cam for me and I ahve been stoked with their service and attention to detail so far, so was a no brainer to hit them up again when I decided to go forced induction.

With the smaller pulley (10psi) and current combo, on 98 the tuner is confident for high 300s at the wheels. On E85, well over 400rwkw :)

vwlbc drags night on private track

AKA dandy factories

considering my ute is tail happy with maybe 130ish...I'ld hate to drive it!

admittedly holden don't have cart springs for rear suspension, but then they don't tow/hold as much.

now that in a sports wagon would be fun.

Yeah my car definitely be better off the line than on roll, the more gears I go through the better - dat auto gearbox ftw.

Or take your cars to the drags and try to better my current best of 11.61 :D

Do they still want $10k for that kit?

Did it come with any supporting mods? Injectors/fuel pump etc?

Seems a bit pricey for labour and essentially bolt-on parts.

Should just buy a couple of sss pulsars amiright?

lol, nah im serious. i wasnt the only one who thought it was pricey, especially considering they quoted turbo conversion for the same price.

Yeah but think about the type of bloke who supercharges his commodore... they're probably almost all FIFO workers

I have 4 mates with blown 8's (not inc sau peeps)

2 FIFO and 2 local tradies

Both FIFO workers lol

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
