SO I get lounge access in the hotel I'm in.

so 5:30-7:30 they put on food and drinks..

I'm the only one who has access currently as they are quiet..

so they have loaded up a bunch of grog, trays of food most of which is going to waste. and I have 6 staff.

why they didn't just give me a voucher for the bar/restaurant and saved themselves a bunch of cash I have no idea.

cause they spend 90% of time building boost and doseing when at traffic lights or in 40 zones.

What supporting mods are you going to need Moh? besides everything.

(fuel pump, injectors, wastegates, diff(s), FPR?, coil packs)

255 intank, surge with 2 255s jammed in.

GTR diff and shafts, Nismo for, 50mm turbo smart gate.

Currently running VQ35de coils.

Heads going to cop some valve springs n cams too.

you can always do cams later... just keep it stock and see how it goes (my advice).

just came back from Havoc to check on the pulsar... Abe is too convincing. maybe i will end up going down the ethanol brick road.

If anyone is in need for a new phone plan (sim only, byo phone) Optus doing $40 10gb data inc, unlimited calls texts etc. now. Only 12 month lock in too.. pretty good.

If this came up 6-7 months ago I would have, but now holding out for new iPhone

This sounds good, is Optus good though?

Telstra has been shit lately lol so can't be much worse

Carpel tunnel, had surgery, tried to get back into it, on going issues could not keep going.

he was shattered.

he still turns up to some gymkanas and such

Dis is seriously not the reason, also Micolour still exists... albeit at least temporarily out of action.

I've always been on Telstra with work phones etc, but with Optus past year now that I'm paying for it myself - to be honest I don't really notice any difference between the two both work fine.

Telstra would have the upper hand on really remote places for coverage.. depends if you go camping in the outback or 4wding a lot I guess.

$3500 neo engine/gearbox

$300 nistune

$1500 hypergear turbo

$500 injectors

$800 clutch

$600 tune

$1000 misc

That's like $8k....am not sure if its worth it /getting old.

Could probably buy a modded r33 gtst for that price with all the above included.

or I could reco head + turbo for probably $3k & be on my way...I think the rb20 might live on!

I definitely don't do any of those things

But the 12 month lock in scares me a bit

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
