Booked in at Craigs to get the transmission tuned to suit the new powahs.

From talking to a few different people, and the googles of course, not adjusting the transmission tune after power mods can be a sure-fire way to reduce transmission life.

As it only costs around $500 for the transmission retune it is a no brainer to have it tuned to suit.

Ah,  for the motorbike.

LOL, sorry, for the confusion

I have added all my vehicular Bogan news into this thread

The slammer kit drops the whole bike about 1.5" and firms up the suspension 

Plus the OEM stuff is shite, this is "apparently" a little better

Do you need an Asian to show you how to do a mad skid? I don't see the video of your skid in this thread 😂

Because posting random mad skids on the interwebs has never ended badly for said skidder.....

When I hit the drags I'll attempt to get one of the kids to take a vid

The transmission tune is all sorted

I think I want to put a gilmer rear drive on the back of the blower to make it even more whiney and annoying, speaking of annoying......

Funny story, I was waiting for the Mrs to pick up some takeaway, she overheard a couple outside the shop complaining to their friends about the noisy car in the carpark, she heard the friends say,"WTF, that thing sounds hot, not everyone wants a POS car like yours"

It's the little things that make you smile, and annoying people, I always smile when I annoy people

 

Sorry, no skid vids

Time will tell what cunning plans will ensue, probably somethong like the carbuilder deadener that is under it, just a bit thinner, maybe

In other news, car is awesomeballs

Car drives great in traffic and loves the Hwy

Drove to Braidwood today, averaged about 9.5l/100km with cruise locked at 100 and 110

Sedate city driving is less fuel friendly at about 16l/100km

Car is wicked fun and fast on the roll

Finally installed the new suspension on the bike, lowered the bike about 1.5" each end

The compliance/performance is so much better than the stock suspension, comparing the new stuff to the stock, front was like a sponge, and the rear was like a pogo stick

Yes I have lost some lean angle, but I really rarely scrapped the pegs before anyway, plus I don't really dive into corners because Harley

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
