They advertise on the radio here about supercharger kits for your Holden and chipping your diesel for more power. Something you wouldn't hear in Victoria haha.

I wonder if there are different EPA laws in Perth.

Baby killers!

north side is bad mang.

Nah only your Coburg house was bad :P

Actually been going past it a fair bit lately lol

Probably would be

But even in Vic the epa tests aren't setup to roadside the diesels (only petrols) so modding them is no issue. If your need to get an epa you must go to a the epa place

their rules are different, vic is by far the toughest on mods.

I have no experience with it, though Martini products are generally very good, so I doubt you'd see their name on something shit. I could be wrong, but from memory Martini are just rebranders of decent stuff from other manufacturers.

They make their own stuff now I believe according to mate who works there, ie used to sell endless 600 brake fluid, now have their own.

Engine and gearbox now filled with martini, yet to start it though. Motorbike soon to also have martini

Okay! I'm going to give Martini a go.

Cheers fellas.

Nope, one kit. "Hemnes" set of draws. Finished them off today. Found more issues.. One of the biscuit joins weren't drilled deep enough and pushed through the face side snapping the face of the draw. All the screws just keep threading themselves. Fixing sooooo many of ikeas f**k ups..

/whinge

Tl:dr

Yeh next time I'll just buy premade. Lol easier less problems or just build my own from scratch

sure you're using the right screws? :P

Prolly toughest on fines too

0-10kn/h over in WA = $75 fine / 1 penalty unit and no demerit points.

Same thing in Vic = $181 / 1.5 penalty units and 1 demerit point.

Consider how much living costs are between states and the gap is evidently larger.

No P plates displayed is also a lot cheaper / little or no points.

sure you're using the right screws? :P

100% sure.

otherwise i would not have had enough/too many left..

plus, how could someone push a wedge through solid wood if it were drilled correctly lol anyway, its done now.. let hope it lasts more than a year lol

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
