my mates done nearly the exactly the same as mine, less compression then mine, less aggressive cams and it made 180kw on 98 so that's why I was hoping for atleast 200 on e85, my engine builder is pretty positive it will make 200kw, but the proof is in the pudding!

Here is a photo of her in, heard her run for the first time today, I do have a video of it on my phone, will figure out how to get it onto here, tuning tomorrow, will try and get some video footage and decent non-phone photos sometime aswell.

Dyno sheet - Mild Tune (will push it a bit later when its proven to be all well)
Engine torque is that divided by the diff ratio. 3.7 in this case
Annnd its on a hub Dyno hence the power curve "interuptions", if it was on a roller it would be smooth as silk.

I can't read dyno sheets.. :(

Is that like 165kw?? :)

yeah mate 167.6 down the bottom

did end up making 170 odd by the end of the day, although I need to adjust the cam timing to get a few more revs out of her and upgrade the cat back exhaust, also tempted to get the throttle body's enlarged and sealed properly, one has a slight leak on idle causing a very minor miss, pretty sure EFI hardware will do that for me.

That was just 98, E85 actually didn't make any more power but the car sounded a lot nicer, sounded smoother through the rev range aswell. which I was sort of disappointed by but in an NA build all gains are very minimal.

Not sure if this will work for most of you

Waiting for my go pro to be returned that I left at my friends place while I picked the car up so I can upload the video properly

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
