Gloria is great to about 100kmhs.
Before I fitted the exhaust it was a fair bit slower and slowed down once it got to 80. Helical diff basically eliminated straight line wheelspin completely, does a good job.

My brother got so mad when he got his GTST fresh out of Trents shop making 350 at the wheels only to get walked by me actually getting traction in 2nd gear roll. 

Now that car is rusting outside the parents house, probably 30k in it all up at least.. :\ prob worth nothing now. RIP advan TCIIs getting all rusty and weird on it too :(

350rwkw is a pretty shit spot for gtst's

Its just hitting that spot where the lag is soul crushing but its not quick enough to make up for it. A 300rwkw or 400rwkw gtst is a far better package

think this was a 3076 with 21 or 22 psi, Lag - WHEELSPIN - 3rd gear - Lag - WHEELSPIN! 4th gear, oh they're gone.

Mine was a 3L with a gt35 @ 26 psi lag was fine.

 

Full boost just after 3500, if you made it ramp the boost in between 2500 and 5500 instead it would hold 2nd, but that takes a heap of the midrange punch out and isn't as fun.

My 2nd is like 60-130 xD Silly tall gears 3rd is nearly 200 

Sweet spot is 80km/h in 2nd with warm tyres then keep it on full boost between changes with dat dere auto, not that I have lag anyway  

Meanwhile my dirt bike in top gear ringing its tits off at like 140

your motor with 20% more displacement had less lag? NO WAY

very nice, vacan waterfront not come along every day.

 

build on it or keeping as an investment.

That's it, there's one for sale that isn't even water front and only on 410sqm they want 1.5-1.6M.

Mine being ~580sqm and waterfront who knows what it will be worth. Amazing location was very impressed. 

 

I think there here is two waterfront pieces left.

Congrats mate, the waterfront down there is lovely

Sometimes impulse buys turn out to be the best!

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
