yeh happy with turbos but i was surprised at how much we gain with the install of cams and tuning them etc it went from 366 to 518 we adjust fuel and int to suit with like a 1 to 1.5psi increase to get a true 18psi the apexi power fc rules tho awesooooooome contol and repetability,the car starts like a std and idles nice with a hint of lump to it.

Don't you find it a bit strange that the intake air temp was 82 degrees??! Especially considering the ambient temp was only 25... Compare the IT on your 366 hp run and I'll bet you 5 bux it's nowhere near 82 degrees celsius. Still your car sounds lovely and power curve looks great. Just don't place too much stock in your 518 hp at the wheels figure...

I take it no internal mods like forged pistons ?

Buster, Haha, who do you think got me the slicks;)

ND4SPD was running street tyres cause that was the category that we entered him for in Drag Combat.

last time i had checked, nd4spd did his 10 before drag combat so it has absolutely no relevance to his times. his best 10 was there though.

i remember doing his feature they day after it did the 10

he has never run on it slicks, bar one pass where he had slicks on the rear , so its not some sort of amazing thing that it does its times on street tyres, he just runs it like its driven. i dont think there was any real descision for him to run it on street tyres, the way it sounds from you paul its as if he decided to step back from slicks to street tyres soley for d.c

i know u didnt mean it to sound like that , but it sounds wierd and these eastern states boys wouldnt know better.

no internal mods(no forged pistons),bar tomei cams :rofl:

Hi mate, are you able to post up the 366hp graph? I would be really interested to have a look and compare it to the 518hp one.

Thanks,

Richard

ND4SPD was running street tyres cause that was the category that we entered him for in Drag Combat.

When you say "we entered him in" are you a part owner of SST or ND4SPD or just a nut hugger that likes to talk big

so the choice of street tyres wasn't made by the owner or workshop? but its something you boast about quiet frequently as its a true street car hahaha guys get your stories straight, so in other words its only a true street car because you were made to run street tyres

As for it being not allowed back Steve I very much doubt with the condition it was in after the crash it could of went back anyway and once repaired why not do what the rest of us have to and put a cage in it ect so it is legal to race

Paul is part of SST and so is ND4SPD and whats the story about ND4SPD?

It did have a knock against a curb but the damage is nothing like the storys and as for the cage,Why make a Race car out of a genuine street car that does the miles this thing does and a cage would have it put of the road first day out.

Why make a Race car out of a genuine street car that does the miles..

Out of interest, whats your idea of a street car? I know my car is a street car, as when its off the road im using public transport and itching to be able to drive it again, on average 25,000-30,000kms a year at least 6 days a week, typically 7 days (inc to-from work)

If it gets left in the garage as the owner has another car they prefer to drive day to day, then id say it aint a street car, as to me the owner doesnt enjoy driving it every day. Be it because its too loud, rough, powerful, or just too expensive/big an investment.

Thats my thoughts and everyones will differ from mine...so not wanting to get caught up in definitions, just trying to get a feel for what this car gets used for?

sorry mate unfortately we accidently erased the 366hp run cos we did alot of runs george was very pissed off when we discovered we had done so ,but basically we picked up power earlier with the advance on the inlet and picked up outright hp with exhaust advance and a bit opf int advance.

    • Did you panel beat the dents or have you tried to repair this only using filler?  Is your sanding block soft/flexible and is following the shape of the panel rather then just knocking down the high points? 
    • I haven't knocked them down yet. I think I made the repair more complex than it should have been. I had rock chips combined with waviness and dents and I tackled it all in one because it was near each other and just end up wasting a bunch of bog lol. I'll knock down those areas and see how I go. And yep what you are saying at the end is correct. I think I might be sanding the top of a steep hill then my sanding block falls into the dent and gets rid of the guidecoat if that makes sense. Though shouldnt unless I'm covering too big of an area with not a long enough block. I'll try something new and provide some updates. Getting there though! Thanks as always.  
    • Yeah makes sense, hard to comment on your situation without seeing what your doing. I was talking generally before, I would not be looking to randomly create low spots with a hammer to then have to fill them.  It's hard without seeing what your doing, it sounds like you are using the guide coat to identify low spots, as you're saying the panel is still wavy. I don't see how you're not ending up with patches of guide coat remaining in a wavy panel? Once the high spots are knocked down to the correct level, surely to have a wavy panel you need low spots. And those low spots would have guide coat still in them?
    • So I'll put filler past the repair area a bit to make sure I don't miss anything. Then I'll block it until it's almost level, put the guidecoat, then keep blocking until it's gone. Then it's still wavy.  In regards to hitting the panel, I saw this video might give more context - Skip to 0:47 he knocks it down. But yeah I'm sanding until the guidecoat is gone then checking because otherwise my filler is still well above the bodyline. Unless what you're saying is I should put guidecoat around it early, surrounding the filler then stip once it's gone?
    • I refreshed the OEM injectors with the kit and connected it up. It now ideals okay even with the IACV removed. Driving still has the same cutoff issue like the 550cc injectors so the issue is somewhere else. I bought FPG's Fuel Pump Hanger. I will be installing it next, but it is not as straightforward as I thought it was with my limited wiring knowledge and no instruction on the specific model I purchased (FPG-089). I also got the incorrect billet clamp as I could not find info on the OEM sizing.
