It's only farting, it should still drive well.. Just block it off like I mentioned if you are worried. When's the tune? It's about time I ran mine, but Calder is closed at the moment. Nearest drag

I'm very keen to take mine down there. But as its still in Jetwreck's dad's garage I'm just not sure how it will be running this week. I was thinking about going in a week or 2 and was hoping Jetwreck's would be ready to trek there also. Keen to see the 13 sec line broken

What kp/h did dale hit when he got the 13.8?

100mph or piss fart away I think.

13.8@ 100.11MPH :yes:

I;'d like to but not ready at this stage..what time do you think it would get??

I'd be betting a 13.6, maybe better.

Your car has the same turbo as mine, with a bunch of other supporting mods and a damn good tune. ;)

Theo ran 13.9 with 206rwkw, and yours would have to have at least 30 odd KW more than mine.

Well my car is back together but I need a new BOV. Don't think I can sort that before tomorrow so I'm out for this week sorry guys

It's about time I ran mine, but Calder is closed at the moment. Nearest drags is Heathcote, 3 hours away. I may as well drive up for this.

It's bleeding off boost which sucks.

Tune prob not for a while. As much as I want an emanage. I have spent way to much money of late. The bank balance needs to recoup. But is has nismos so it will have to do the job for now.

If I do blank off the bov could it cause any damage?

Maybe a trip up to Sydney and wsid is due for you. I bet we could get a good stag turn out if you were also running. Plus Craig might sort his shit out also.

I went back to a stock stall converter, no hope of boost off the line for me, most of you would have me by 3 car lengths at the start while I crawl away.

But I would drop the high stall back in, just to upset Craig, if I was coming up sometime. :)

What mods are you running again dale? Just trying to work out where my car should be at

Blitz dry cotton panel filter, my own 2.5" mandrel bent suction pipe, Sierra S2 Highflow (ceramic coated), stock actuator with 5mm preload, plenum spacer, 3 inch dump (ceramic coated), 3 inch midpipe with 100cpi cat (ceramic coated), Fujitsubo Legalis exhaust and the brake wire cut mod.

Stock airbox, stock intercooler, stock computer, stock injectors, stock fuel pump.

There is other stuff, but not that directly effect performance.

The key mod in my case; is the loose nut behind the steering wheel. :whistling:

How much stall do you get off the line with the high flow Dale?

This is the issue I had; I could only stall the car to 2500 RPM; which left me with 5-7 Psi leaving the line. It got away ok; but nothing like it does on the street. At 2400 RPM it was still registering vacuum on the boost gauge.

I believe Sky^rt had a similar issue at Calder building boost at stall; but even knobbled, he ran a 12.9. :woot:

A full blooded launch would've put him closer to mid 12.

On the street; I can stall it up, it takes around 2 seconds to reach 2500 RPM and once it reaches 5 Psi, it whips up to 3200 RPM and 15 Psi.

Release brake; the torque split gauge goes to it's maximum, it spins the rear wheels pretty hard for about 4 metres, then pisses off.

The difference in launch is MASSIVE.

I firmly believe a "Street Launch" would've had me around 13.6.

Such is life. ;)

      The Evolution Of "night Fury"

      Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!

      Unpeeling the Orange

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
