I could have gotten better but kept missing gears , oh well..

I think its not bad for stock turbo , stock management.

Missing gears?

Have you got a truck gearbox or something, how many gears can you miss?:)

Guest Works Auto

reason i was missing third gear was because i thought i might try some redline shockproof.

I found its excellent for protecting the box but doesnt allow the syncro's to spin up quick enough. So i was having trouble getting third , just woudnt go in.

So i came home put ELF gearbox fluid back in and its back to normal.

So far the box is holding up but its getting whiny .... i think its on a life expiry ... going going BANGGGGGGGGGG

14.6 thats damn good for a almost stock car man !

I was down at the plex last meet with Imacul8 and noticed that the VT range of HSV's ( including Utes) where only running 14.7's and up.

Pretty lame for a hard arse car......

Why Jap cars are better than late model domestics part 1.

thanks guys at least im improving i think the car is able to do better its me that needs to perfect the techniques but im happy especially as its a auto and all. I might stick with it as stock this season then do some work - like pod and cat back exhaust, boost controller and see what the improvement is like

    • No. BSP lost to the cultural/technical imperialism of living next to Trumpistan. Face it, Robertson screws were better and still pretty much lost out to the yank stuff. The Europeans hate the Brits and they don't use NPT. NPT is just as "imperial" as BSP is, being based on those useless inch thingos. Just done differently. 
    • I live in Quebec. Our license plate slogan is "Je me souviens" Translated is "We will remember" as a reminder to when England conquered us and that we must never forget what they did. Long story short, BSP is unheard of here due to being an English design. I'm surprised our nazi anti english government office the OQLF hasn't kicked in my door yet just talking about it, yet alone imperial anything.       
    • Thanks for that! I did a quick Google search looked up some of hydaulic stores and didn't see it listed on the website, I'll give them a ring. Also found out later that I can buy 2 oem bleeder bolts for 10 bux and come with the washer which I might do so I don't waste the money it costs in petrol to find 2 washers (already did that lol). The old copper washes look in good nick, I drove it after taking it off and putting it back on and didn't see any  Part number here for reference if anyone needs: 14053-42L0A  
    • Piggaz had one and broke it at 470kw
