Had a great day on Saturday. Arrived with two mates at 8:15am after narrowly avoiding the defect station around lake george!

My friend Andrew that was due to run his lj on the dyno at 10am got thrown on the thing at 8:30am so i was stoked for leaving as early as i did. He had some problems with the BOV opening when it shouldn't and leaking all manifold pressure after 15psi and peaking his power @ 448hp :D Not great considering his last years' performance of 484. As it turns out, he made the final 4 and upon running this morning, made 520hp and is stoked at being the 4th toughest pump fueled car there.

Immediatley after him was a black VK (?) with plates RAPID8. It is a twin turbo v8 that looked reasonably unnassuming up till the point when it spun up 1206hp first go!!! ON PUMP FUEL!!!

The crowd lost it and cheered till he ran it again and ran a 1097hp without revving it out!!! AWESOME! The Gold TT V8 VK won with 1300+ this morning after both cars were emptied of there fuel tanks, tilt trayed to the servo, filled from the same pump with optimax and tilt trayed back to the dyno cell! Intense. It almost came to fisty-cuffs when the suggestion was made that the Gold car was running the bottle but it was all sorted in the end.

HEAPS of girls with their titties out, (Hey, it was pier pressure that made me cheer them on!) and loads of nice cars.

Great day, Fridays must blow cos i had a fantastic time topped off with a trip to Fyshwick (sp) to top up the DVD pr0n supply :())

Here

This phot was taken outside Autotech Services Collie Street, Fyshwick,ACT

Its a member of Syndicate Motorsports, which is an ACT car club.......Maybe this guy just bough it??

Hmm, I"ll be quiet now. :)

I talked to the guy at the Summernats SAU get together. He mainly lives in Canberra but also lives in WA. He works in Canberra.

Bullet holes are definitly from chillin in da Canberra gheto, in particular Franklin St. Manuka and Lonsdale St. Braddon. Pretty tough hoods! :lol:

I remember seeing a while ago a news article claiming Richardson to be the bad ass gheto of the ACT. The cops bilitzed it for ages! Lock your doors driving through or you'll get jacked for your ride and your The land of goat sphincter rings chain!

Those Southsieed boys are real G'd up gangstas! They claim the front of the Hyperdome as there turf! :lol:

    • Hi All,    I have my BW EFR 8474 with a T4 split 1.05 rear housing. Rear housing is ceramic coated and drilled and tapped for EMAP take off.  Supported 520awkw at 35psi through the 8HP with ~5k rpm spare on the BW 127k limit. Ran a 9.98.    Turbo is one of the first that was released but only done ~3k kms.    Asking $2800 happy to negotiate. Only selling to upgrade.   Located Gladstone QLD happy to ship. 
    • Hi is the Toshiba sceeen still available?
    • Just wondering how come the hood was grinded down? 
    • I have no hard data to report, but I have to say, having driven it to work and back all week, mostly on wet roads (and therefore mostly not able to contemplate anything too outrageous anywhere)..... it is real good. I turned the boost controller on, with duty cycle set to 10% (which may not be enough to actually increase the boost), and the start boost set to 15 psi. That should keep the gate unpressurised until at least 15 psi. And rolling at 80 in 5th, which is 2050 rpm, going to WOT sees the MAP go +ve very quickly and it has >5 psi by the time it hits 90 km/h. That's still <2.5k rpm, so I think it's actually doing really well. (I edited this from a previous version where I stated 80km/h was <2000, but that was a false memory. If I am rolling at ~1700 in 5th and floor it, it will start making boost before it goes over 2k - which is a separate "experiment" leading to the same conclusion. Which is that the boost threshold is actually quite low. It's not fast there, obviously, but it certainly makes progress towards going fast, which is not what it's been like for a long while!!) Because of all the not-quite-ideal things that have been in place since the turbo first went on, it felt laggy. It's actually not. The response appears to be as good as you could hope for with a highflow.
    • Or just put in a 1JZ, and sell me the NEO head 😎
