love it. flex fuel setup on e85? im using water meth injection on my car. works great with the haltec. seems like the boys down under arent going this route but i can get it for cheap and it keeps my engine parts clean...

I’ll be running on pump fuel for now and then maybe next year set it up for e85.

water/meth kit works wonders mate really cheap stuff that works great.  i dont know about down under there but we have an AEM kit with safety backup and ive been running it solid for years. my opinion better setup than e85 for what its worth.

Can you please send me a link of this item? I’ll have a look and research about it!

here is the base kit from aem...i know its not a down under piece but we use this alot around here on big power 2j's and rb's. keeps your engines valves crazy clean...my nossle is in my manifold. need a flex fuel sensor of some kind obviously haha....can run crazy boost if your motor is built for it with this kit. really cheap stuff too, i buy it at a farm supply shop in town. im sure some guys are gunna say this option isnt safe but it defintily is and works great. tried and tested mate. upgrade to a bigger tank to if you go this route.

Bad news guys.. 

apparently the cams are Stock cams not Jun 272.. I’ve been misled. So I am in need of some drop in cams. 
was thinking of Tomei Type B Poncam 262. Any thoughts? 

Yep keep the stock cams with adjustable gears.

I’m really leaning towards Tomei Poncam Type B 260 9.15lift. Might as well get it done as I’ll be running flexfuel next year means more power. Will need the cams anyways 

UPDATE: 

Painted the inside door jams and boot lid in 326 crystal white colour. today I will be putting the doors and the boot back on before sending the car back to mechanics.

Parts Update - ordered below parts 

-Haltech Platinum Pro (plugnplay)

-ATI Balancer 750hp rated

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
