My car hasn't even been started yet :rant: awaiting the assesor to approve the quote ($9000)

Well teh turbo might might not be a bit of a dud. Well the thing is defiantly rebuilt, shaft play is as per spec ext, but the thing took 2 weeks to gete here and was wraped in a rag to keep it clean, the box got water damaged the turbo aluminium housing got wet, and now all looks like it's got icicles growing out of it.

I am going to see if i can fix it, if not, i get my money back and a high flow.

AND begor GMB tels me i told you so. I TOLD YOU SO.

No doubt i will, just depends who is going from the south :P

9k damage hey, doesn't sound like a fair insurance reaming at all by the bodyworks :laughing-smiley-014:

and the assesor said i need a new intercooler, one of the fins has been bent since i got it. So now I get a new intercooler, I have to see the bodyworks today to make sure they order the right one, as the one that's on it now is a huge HKS one. So I don't want them putting on a hybred rip off or something.

mmmmmmm

maybe i can get the garbage dude to "reverse" into my car...

DO you think they would buy that the wheels fell off along with the brakes, unbolted the motor and everything else in the engine bay, removed the front bar and FMIC & oil cooler along with a few other things :thumbsup:

I had a look today, and the intercooler did have damage from the acident. Gave the bodyworks the brand and p/n so it all should be good :(

Shannons don't realy care about the cost, it's not their money :rant:

finally got the rest of the kit on, car also has a small photo in HPI this issue for tassie drift series :happy:

Looks great Stu

love the fat vertex look :ph34r:

Im still undecided if i want to kit my car or not yet, will wait till its back on the road first i think :whistling:

are you comming up this weekend stu.

looks like my car will be ready to go by saturday. would be ready to go now if the trail shaft was finshed when they said it would be.

mmmm the sweet sound of a fresh 2.5L

Of course you want to put a kit on your car, 32s look phat with kits...

mine an BN sports by the way...I ran over the vertex at the drift day haha

I've got a vertex kit (has been sitting here for a year and half :happy: ) but if i do decide to put a kit on im keen on something a little different but having trouble finding a supplier :(

The only down side is getting in/out of my driveway and using the car on a regular basis with the clearance issues with a kit fitted :ph34r:

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
