No all good :)

Have Daddy stuff to do so I will give a full rundown in the morning. I also have to check the water when it is cold to get a better idea if it is OK

Lost about 6KW but going stronger and seems a little more responsive :)

You blokes are really funny, I love it :cheers:

Well just checked the water and it is still warm but it seems OK, will wait until tomorrow when it is cold before i get excited .

The 4" Dump and 100 Cell cat was installed, (have to have a look at it as I do not know the size)

The Starter motor was replaced or fixed ?

The misfiring was addressed , gave it some work on the way home and all seemed good. I will give it a more vigorous trial soon.

The water leak seems to be sorted

The cost for this work = $0

Their communication is crappy but they backed up their work, well, in my experience.

I have no idea why there was a 6KW lose of power but it does not feel like it to drive, only took it to 7000rpm and loved it :)

Having trouble getting the dyno off the phone, try tomorrow, fn laptop hic hic

Be back in a few weeks as I think I will make a couple of changes, surge tank , fuel line and CAI pod cover and have the flex tune , but somewhere closer to home :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: :action-smiley-069:

Nice to hear its all good now peter.

What turbo and what power at what boost ?

PT6262 CEA

 

Finally got a photo out of the phone

 

Luke , I do have a new set of AD08Rs on now, the old tyes had plenty of rubber but old due to the car sitting in a garage for 5 years they said they were 10 years old and to scrap them.

 

The car seems to drive the same up to about 3000rpm but stronger after that

 

Just checked the water and looking GOOOOOD :yes:

 

I will give it a bit of work over the weekend just to be sure.

 

Looks like I will have to put the surge tank in the boot but I use the car for trips I do not like the idea of taking up the space, is there any other way of doing this

^^^Mounting under the car means you don't need a lift pump.

380kw is plenty for the street. It will go very fast and so long as it revs out smoothly you will be very happy. ( I wish shops would produce dyno charts with revs instead of mph!)

I am intrigued by the way that the boost curve trends down. I thought it would hold at least 25 psi for quite a bit longer. Maybe that';s just how the turbo is or maybe its the wastegate or just the tuner.

Like the rest of your non- paying audience I am glued to this thread!

As piggaz mentioned underneath but in the 34 there's a spot in front where the spare wheel acher is.That's where I'm putting mine as I didn't want the smell of fuel for the back seat riders.

If you have a fuel smell you have a problem.

Nice PR for UE there Paul, get a $ out of it :)

Thanks for all of the ideas for the surge tank location, gives me some ..

If it is installed properly in the boot you should not get fuel smell in the car, right. I was just worried about having travel gear bumping around with the fuel setup :/

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
