Wow..VERY nice work!!

Just a quick question- having recently got a line of defects in my close to stock 33, how the hell do you avoid police attention in something as awesome as that??? Surely its a problem for you especially with those plates??

havent been pulled up yet .... exept once buy the pig on a bike on his way home tried to tell me he was trained in estimating speeds after i laughed at him he opened his wallet and coins fell down the side of my car ... thats police hospitality 4 ya .... i then proceded to argue how he could estimate my speed when he was a kilometre away and on a road bike ... after he told me the good old, i am in a good mood tonight so i will lwt u go .. not i dont have a radar and my wifes at home probably with another man so i cant stay and argue routine he then called me a hoon i said to him in a closing sentence ..... i am an enthousiast does that make me a criminal ......he then replied the number plates leave much to the imaginationand away he went.....

god bless him for just doing his job......

Hmm...maybe its reverse pyscology then, get the most modified car around, with plates that say "pull me over, i street race" ( :lol: not that i'm saying you do :) ) and they stay off your back.. interesting :)

Guess you've been lucky..or i've been unlucky...or a combination of both :P

Anyways back to topic - awesome car. 'nuff said B)

thats before i put 19k into the engine finished it a month ago, 13sec out of the stock engine i had in it before the rebuild and running 19inch wheeles that day who wouldnt do a 13 now thats history... but thanks for reminding me...

Plans on a brake upgrade at any time at all perhaps? :lol:

That was the first thing i did when i got my car, slotted dba 4000 n 'track' pads

Mate awesome car, wat mod plates u have to get also wat engineers certificates u got?

no mod plates or engineer certificates but yea i had hopes of a 10 sec at jambo but of coarse just when you think everythings ok the gearbox lockes up and when it did go i couldnt get second so with thAT in mind i bought a 6 speed dog box going in this week i am just waiting for the other wastegate and turbo from jap land so soon it will be twin turbo tdo625g and twin 48mm trust external wastegates with screemer pipes its gonna be loud as fu*k...i want to put a 4 inch straight through exaust..

i understand y people say how come so much money on a gtst but once i start building somthing i can stop ... but year i no i need the big brakes soon .....

I need a lift back from Willowbank when I destroy my box so you should come out. I can't be seen in anything that does slower than a 12 now. It's an image thing.

BTW, nice car....I am kinda the same....the only thing that stops me from spending more money on mine is the lact of it. I pretty much did what I could afford the the engine internals but I would have liked to do some other crap. At the end of the day I will be happy if I do an 11 on an engine I built.

I also admire your large wallet with the worn out edges.

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
