Faaark, who'd you rob bro? That's some serious coin been put in to make that kind of power within 12 months! Most of us spend that much over 5 years if we're lucky (unlucky?)

Great to see however! Love it.

Had it 3 months and finished :woot: and to get all of the gear ready would take some time, good planing and picked the right company to do it .

He might be one of those hideous blokes that saves money for a rainy day :yucky: haha

Or robbed a bank!

Planned and executed well. A good shop and obviously a good relationship.

Must eat at you peter when you thought you had also taken the right steps.

Good fortune and a good result.

There would not be many if any others with this experience.

:thumbsup:

haha, thought I had it covered, but it did piss me off big time at the time, but I do not live in the past , there is always more new shit waiting to happen :)

But ,the way this was done should be how they are all done,choose your builder (first check out their build times) know what you want, get the bolt ons etc and then check if the builder is ready to start on your build. Oh, I did it all that, well except the builder bit,lol

I do not know if this bloke just happened to be at the right place at the right time ??

Workload would play a part.

But still yours was fairly quick too.

Living in the past is a mugs game, your right.

Anyway this build looks great.

Well , his was a month, mine was over 5 months and I had everything there ??

Looking at his Dyno, would you say it is a laggy street car or am I missing something? I know it has .2Lt more but up to 5000rpm it is not doing much? I struggle with most Dyno graphs, some blokes just take a glance and can tell how it will drive.

All I know is when mine did not kick in until over 5000rpm it was a nightmare on the street.

I love white Rs :)

I understand that, marvel at what he did in 3 months and the results are sensational :)

But it is also a street car, what about the first 5000rpms, as I said when I bought mine it did nothing until 5000rpm + and at 140kph@150kw that is similar to his graph, even with the .2Lt more ?

He has done 5000klms on the street and loves it :wub: , i drove home 350 Klms and wanted to put a match to it on the first day :yucky: !

So I must be missing something the way I have read his graph and would like someone that knows to explain it for me :cool:

You need to take a chill pill. It's not your car so you don't have to be happy with it.

Not everyone is hell bent on response this and response that

I already said it was fantastic and I do not give a shit how someones else's car drives, to each his own :) I love what he has done, jealous that he could get it done in a month and think his car looks great, love white Rs ??????

That is not what I was saying, he said it was good to drive as a DD and my car at a similar speed and KWs was really shitty as a DD from idle, my Quad clutch did not help.

"I struggle with Dyno charts, I wondered if I missed something, or the extra .2 Lt made the difference."

I was hoping "he" would answer and let me know how it all works in together, not your " RESPONSE " with your medical advice, it is a bit warm so I might take a chilled beer instead :)

it can just come down to how its tuned.

i had a t88 fully built 26 done by Croydon and it drove like shit. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone again after a simple build took forever. They are never in a hurry to do anything.

Took my car to JEM after an outrageous quote by Croydon for simple upgrades. Got them to go over the entire tune and it drove 1000 times better after Adam had tuned it

Thanks Chris

I know shit all about this stuff until I get some answers to questions I ask and then, I still know very little, except advise to take a chill pill and that really helps, school hols are a pain :).

I could never understand anyone wanting to drive a car as a "DD" the way "MY CAR" drove , I was crap , it had a T78 tuned by CRD for top end!

Before you blokes throw rocks or chill pills, I am just asking, how can this car be a good DD .Have a look at what I asked before saying I should PO?

I thought SAU was for asking questions and I cannot wait until the owner gets back on the thread, probable had an Easter break or a phantom :)

The reality is it isn't a good daily driver for everyone. You wouldnt like it Pete, I probably wouldn't like it.

There's a fair wait for the power, but when it comes it would certainly be fun.

Can't wait to see some quarter mile times. That's when the car will shine.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
