Hostile when i waved i nearly hit the car in front of me. I didn't notice it stop, thank god for good brakes. I think i need to use that inside lane a s you always come from nowhere and dissapear into the distance while i never seem to move >_<

Yep for sure... the inside lane is always movin well cept for buses!! I always stay inside and change after the split for Ayliffes rd. Only a few km from there to work for me!

ok who was the fool who decided to fishtail it out of bp servo at pooraka. i was driving past there this morning to work, he must have seen me and wanted to prove a point. roads were wet at the time, he exited the servo driving on the limiter, i could hear it bouncing off the rev lim. seriously, its ppl like YOU who get us targeted. was a marron r33, wasnt you was it redgtst?? raises eyebrow*

WTF why does every one think that as soon as a Maroon car does a chirpy or something that it is automatically me!!!! Thr fricking cops do it tooo, one guy said he recognised my car and i had never even frickin seen the dick b4.

As for being at Pooraka WTF i would not be seen dead out there! my ride would get stolen in Boganville.

Hmmmmm -SKYLINE-?????

hmmm :) yep that was me!!! i nailed it in second until i noticed that there was water on the road from the sprinkler system......... damn council..... watering grass at 10pm at night!!!

Spotted Marron R33, with unpainted front bar, turning right into Grand Junction Rd from Pt Wakefield Rd south-bound.

Spotted (drove behind him) Black R32 with BN/Vertex kit heading north up Main North @ cnr of Diagonal.

was @ bosotworx today having timing belt done and a dyno tune after that tony had to put my front tailshaft back in and he jacked it right up on the troley jack and he said that how u want it launhing @ the drags fron wheel in the air :whistling: i thought it looked a bit kool to i got my camera and took a photo ... but i accidently had the camera set wron and it came out better than i expected :laugh:

oh enough to bring the front wheels off the ground :whistling:

on a 3rd run he got 175rwkw and stopped short cause it was leaning out

i also got a leak on the plenum so need a new gsaket and need to find a air leak shaun said u only loose about 5kw through the transfer case

oh first run was 140 rwkw (thats how sick it was)

and he said it looks like the guy that got it turbo'ed didnt just wack a turbo on the DE motor that he put a DET engine in so i can prolly run 14psi when i get the rest sorted

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
