I've seen plenty of videos, results look pretty bloody good to me! 

Maybe he just got sick of some of the carry on that goes on in build threads? 

Given how some people behave around here these days, there's much less of an incentive to share all the ups and downs of a build. 

 I got jumped on from the getgo because I wanted response , said cannot be done ,  go buy a V8 . I got a pretty good result and not a word from the stirrers , LOL

Pauls car is great , plenty of power with good response , win win

PPG honestly is good enough to daily, it's easy to use doesn't crunch when you use clutch and is relatively quiet.

When mine went in I drove it to and from work in peak hour for a week and didn't get frustrated at all, my rear diff is generally louder

Drive it every couple of weeks and just getting used to the box. Low speed, low rpm shifting without the clutch without making it go BANG/CRASH. Getting there ?.

Wont be touching it again for a very long time. The level of “over it” is very high. 

With the 1.45 housing it went 517 AWKW, up from 486. Turbine speed remained the same at 122,000 RPM.

That is a healthy gain, was there much difference in response

2-300 RPM I reckon. Totally unsure which one I like to be honest. The 1.05 was “so right”. More Kms needed.

2-300 rpm seems like a reasonable enough trade off for an extra 30kw 

 

I guess it comes down to what the car gets used for though

Update.

Bought some new wheels...CE28N SL’s in 18x 10.5+22 wearing 295/30x18 AD08R’s. Might put them on in the next 3 months then push it back in the garage and whack it back on the trickle charger. ?

This thread does not deliver. 

You need to Youtoob better

The truth is out there.

Well, a hill climb somewhere is anyway

 

But, in saying that, all the good uns should get out and give me pleasure to my eyes and ears.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
