Enough meat in rotors to drill and retap?

There is, the 'tabs' are the same size as the ksport. The rotor is tough as nails though!

Was going to be bit of a risk getting them drilled.

So I hunted around and hopefully when I get home tonight the 8mm rotors are there waiting for me! :unsure:

All the best with WTAC mate.

One question, what do you by way of controlling oil surge? Do you have a sump baffle or restrictor etc?

Cheers

Amir

No baffling. Oil cooler plus long lines and 5L of oil.

No restrictor, long lines run from the cam covers to the catch can, then to atmosphere. The can ends up with 20-30ml after a day on the track.

Rev limit is set just over 8k, though the shift light is set at 7k. I only hold to 8k if it means less gear changes.

hey mate love reading about this car! hopefully get mine to yours soon!

What mirrors / where did you get them from? Price?

Also what spoiler and how wide is it?

cheers mate!

I'm not sure what the total width is, 1610mm maybe? It fits flush with the body, so isn't extremely wide.

I bought it second hand on the forums. I think it's a PSI parts knock of the BEE*R R#3 GTR wing.

Is there any risk revving it to 8k on an internally stock engine?

You need to have the valve springs and retainers done etc to sustain the higher revs... Its not ideal but its not as if you are cruising down the freeway on 8k :P

my boost bleeds down to 15-16 by 8k. im sure if youre pushing 20psi the valves will start to float. im on the stock springs.

tao runs tomei springs in his 33.

im shifting around 7800 most of the time. it runs the limiter at wakefield and winton a couple of times a lap. it blows a little into the catch can, 20ml maybe.

I'd also like to know that, especially after reading the BC thread.

It was great having the ability to adjust the rebound.

Having only put them in for the event we are still learning how they react.

Don't have a bad thing to say about them.

Turn off the anti shake crap in YouTube that gives it the wobbles and makes it look like the Time Space continuum is bending around you.

lol, it's turned off. The arm on the camera mount is doing that (I think).

16s in, down the straight, that's the mount?

That's trippy.

It must be just at the right frequency to trip the camera out.

Any more work on the car Richo? What are the plans for 2015?

Play with the aero a bit, more power maybe. Not sure yet.

Still running a standard rear end, none of the arms are after-market. Might look at those.
