What Have You Done To Your V-Series Today?

[30Five]

Pulled out all aircon lines and condenser, also starting to pull out loom/wires that I don't need.

Wire tuck

Is that a HKS Single turbo kit?

did some electrical work on the weekend - always so time consuming because I've learnt the hard way over the years that taking shortcuts and rushing the job will always cause headaches down the track. So i spent two days installing my reverse camera, and installing the amp. See pics below:

1. Alpine PDX-V9 - this is a 5ch amp that will run my entire system. It has 4x100wrms and 1x500wrms but birth sheet shows a fair bit higher numbers. It should pack a punch. But not only that, it's smaller and about half the weight of the mono block it replaces. I love it. I mounted it under the floor for a clean stealthy install. Took the TV tuner and mounted it where the Bose amp used to be, and put the Alpine where the TV Tuner used to be. Used all stock brackets, no cutting or drilling - so 100% reversible (the best kind of mod).

2. Even though it's a digital amp and runs a lot cooler than a traditional A/B amp - it's still a very enclosed location. Decided to install a little 12V computer cooling fan to extract heat from that compartment into the spare wheel cavity. It's hooked up to the remote wire so it comes on whenever the amp is on. Had to cut a hole in the plastic trim - but I reckon it looks pretty sweet and functional.

3. All hidden away from prying eyes and protected from flying boot fodder. . Maximum boot space. That's a win in my books!

(ignore spider grill thing - came with the car, and ironic because i'm hyper arachnophobic - that will be going once i decide on a new sub).

Got a quote on getting the lips reconditioned on my Volks because old owner used shit car wash

.... Lets just say im going to put the cash towards new rims instead

[Seano350GT]

Don't you just love fixing up mistakes that the previous owner did? I bought my car 9 months ago and i'm still fixing up his shit!

[(Locky)]

Can tell this is going to take a while to do

Even if you are paranoid about how you check out a car, when its covered in filth there are some things that only come out after a week or 2 of driving it and a few times washing the car

R6n350GT :

When you go for the dyno, do a run with and without the plenum spacer in. I did a test on my car and actually lost 3-5 kw through the mid range with the spacer in at 6psi. Spacers are designed for NA cars, I'm not sure they provide a benefit when turbod. Test it out.

I will do, wonder if i even have the old shorter bolts.. ? can i use longer bolts still ?

I thought g35driver had done dynos showing good for FI?

Cant wait to get it done !!

Turbo be arriving this week so its getting closer

Need to find guy that does custom piping in goldcoast

[PN-Mad]

Yeah, I got told it was good for Fi too, bought one, and installed it on the dyno. Didn't gain shit, lost power.

You might be able to use those bolts, but you'll need to find some bolts for the middle 6.

What's the plan? Gt35 or t51?

HKS 3037Kit but modified so FMIC and 3582 CHRA inside the 3037 housing

Fully built engine with S2 BC Cams

[PN-Mad]

Nice.

will be interesting, but surprised you didn't go to a T3 housing. I think the 1.12 housing in the kit is T2 isn't it?

i was talking to scotty about that, seemed there would be alot of fab work changing adapters, making room etc and didnt want to risk it not fitting

[PN-Mad]

There would be.

At the end of the day - it has a 60mm gate for excess pressure, and should have enough flow to keep the GT35 spinning at a decent rate.

Dyno graph when done please

[(Locky)]

Toying with ideas.....

[Seano350GT]

Tackling the infamous task of replacing power window motor and door lock actuator Saturday after work, fingers crossed i can do it in under 4 hours.

[NORBY]

[SMOKEYV35]

Got the confirmation that my rims are on the water as of today - woOT1!

[LineItUp]
