think about the power i would get from a 308 supercharged

17 psi on ideal dumping the clutch at 5000rpm's and see ya later that would pull like an animal and the roooarrrinnggg motor would be music to my ears

see ya later with a 5000rpm dump of the clutch??

u must b dreamin, u will b sitting in the 1 spot single wheel spinning after the shitty commowhore diff blows and sh*its itelf while the hyundia excel u were trying to race blows u away!!!

And then if u do eventually catch the excel what happens when u come to a corner, opps the boat anchor commowhore will understeer and u will get owned by the excel again!!! :shake:

a friend of mine runs a VK with over 500bhp and admittedly it does sound sweet in a mechanical-earth-coming-to-an-end sort of way and it does rev to 7200 but if you dumped this at 5000 I think the only sounds would be is something destroying itself somewhere in the driveline

then there are the two mates with walkies ... dump either over 3000 and you just sit there till the tyres go bang

if your 8 is built to take a free rev to 5000 comfortably it does need to go that high to smoke the tyres

yeah we're using sikaflex to hold it in place.... should be fine :D

GTR bar getts here this week hopefully as well as the sideskirts... maybe next week cant remember... hopefully the cooler fits behind the stock bar

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
