dude, don't wind up the boost on the car until you've had a good tune. the car ran on high octane fuel all its life and is NOT used ot the poverty octane rating optimaxes at the pumps here.

Craig rang me n said he was gonna go over to check out the car and you were happy as, I asked him to let me know so I could cruise along too. Good to see you're happy with it. Now come to the meet at the whitehorse on tuesday and join the club beyotch!

PS how'd you jump the car at TOLL didn't you have a jumper pack with you?

Craig still has not come to check the car out yet... come round with him and check it out. Tell him to give me a call when he is ready because I want to get it complied ASAP. I only wound it up a bit... heheheh

I know I should wait for the tune but I was just looking at it all day sitting there. Sounds and feels like it is running solid (now I have the filters on). The clutch is VERY grindy but catches so shap and strong, that is what I need to get used to and the reason I stalled a gizilion times yesterday. My sister drove me down to Laverton and folowed me home...so she gave me the jump start (after running down to the shell and paying $35.00 for jumper leads) When turning onto the Westgate she made it through and I stalled (causing the block) I rang her on my mob and asked her to turn around and save me.

Tuesday @ Whithourse (no GTR) I will probably catch the farkin tram. Membership sign up OK that night?

apparently you're near Craig's office so if you want I can ask one of the boys to give you a lift in, or I can give you a lift if I'm there on the day.

As for membership signup, yeah we'll have forms on tuesday.

Will try to come over when Craig does.

      Hell, I'm sufficiently wary of the ZSS suspension arms, let alone something like a hub.

      Got it back home and got started pulling the hub off and diagnose the issue. Axle was stuck after removing the 36mm nut so i used a 3 jaw puller to try and push it out and... eH5FXvJ8.mp4   spend the next few hours trying to remove the axle from the remaining hub as it was very much jammed in there when the spindle sheared off. resulting damage as below R53AIy6 - Imgur.mp4   Looks like the was already a stress fracturing in the spindle as can be seen with the darker cracked section My working theory is maybe when the pinion gear exploded last year the shock put through the hub was the initial crack. Then a few events later it finally let go. Just lucky it happened where it did and not 190km/h on the next sweeper or into the hairpin The bearing/hub assembly went in in 2019 and were non-genuine "ZSS" assemblies and no nails were harmed in the process. #BreakHubsNotNails

      EFR7670 exhaust housing selection RB26

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.

      People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
