  1. WELL!!!! I was Bayside Performance Services yesterday to fit my new fuel pump. Pump works great fuel problem a thing of the past. But while on the dyno the bloody ebc wouldnt adjust. Could not get higher than 10psi. Manages 145rwkw at 10psi but i want more boost. So off i went to autobarn to tell them about my problem with the ebc, since i got it i have just have problems with it. I asked for a refund for the ebc and got it, YAY!! Im taking that refund money plus a bit more and buying a GREDDY ebc. So im ripping the GIZZMO ebc out on saterday and taking it back and getting my GREDDY ebc and putting it in. Hopefully it will work. So i will update again on saterday and go for a power run next week on 13psi, 14.5psi and 16psi and see wat i make.

  5. I ordered myself a walbro fuel pump so ill b back at allstar after it has been fitted to see if my fuel problem is sorted so i might still get to run on the drag on the 17th. Very dissapointed with my 147rwkw but ill do way better after the pump is in.
  6. My car bombed out because of a fuel problem, could only get 147rwkw before they backed it off coz it was running dangerously lean, so on the way home i ordered myself a walbro fuel pump.

  19. Hey i thought ill share my story with you guys. I went 2 autobarn on wednesday to purchase my IBC Gizzmo ebc and i thought just to save myself the trouble ill get it done. As i work night shift i thought ill drop it off when they open up. I have had some work done to the car at this autobarn before so i thought well they did a good job with the alarm and sub so they know what they are doing. The guy comes out with me and the usual ask me where i want it mounted i showed him and he said "no prob mate". I told him to take care of my baby and in his words he said "always do". I went home to get some sleep before work. They phone me up to come pick up my car so all excited i go down to pick it up. Pick it up pay and off i go. I made sure the controller was adjusted all the way down. I take it for a drive and notice that the boost is hitting like 16psi before i crapped myself and lifted my foot because its a stock R33 s2 turbo and are rated 2 13psi from what i know. I get home and open the bonnet to c if a vacuum pipe might have come off. I grab the install/operating guide to check something. When i did this i realised that the have connected the solenoid up wrong. It was connected up as a external wastegate. I phone them up and tell the umm you guys connected it up wrong. He says no worries bring it back and we'll fix it up. We will only b 10 minutes. One and a half hour later he comes back into the shop and says well they connected it up right now and its still boosting to 20.6psi. When he said that i almost had a heart attack. Then he goes and by the way i have a feul cut at 20.6psi. I almost slapped the s.o.b. He then tells me that the put the compresser on the wastegate through the solenoidand it only moves at 20psi. I said to him well its a 6pound actuator, so either its connected up wrong again or you farked it up. The y bring the car round to the front and the manager comes out and has a look coz he was on the phone with the guy from Gizzmoi have another look at the manual and see that they connected it up wrong again. The manager connects it up right this time and i drive home. And will you believe it the turbo was only boosting to 6psi like i said. So i thought it was fixed now and tried adjusting it. This didnt work. I turned the boost all the way up and still nothing. I get home steaming. Phone them up and said to them Listen mate its only boosting 6psi like i said, but now it doesnt want to adjust then i said to him you guys can sort this shit out tommorrow coz i have to got get some sleep coz ive been up all day trying to sort this shit out. The next day i wake at 4 in the afternoon. A bit calmer now and decide to take another look at the boost control. I phone them up again and ask the manager whether they might have farked up the solenoid when they connected it up wrong. Its possible he says, come down and ill give you another one to try. I go down and grab one, come home and swap them around. And bam. It boosts and adjusts. I take the stuffed one bak and tell them it was the solenoid. CONCLUSION DRAWN FROM THIS FEATURE OF EVENTS IS FROM NOW ON ILL DO IT MYSELF OR GET A SPECIALIST TO DO IT AND NOT ASSUME THAT A INSTALLER KNOWS WAT HES DOING!!!!!!!
  20. The only reason they pic on us is because we drive imports, if it was a aussie made car then they would probably said good burnout mate, wat r u running under their.
  21. Im running some cadence 6.5inch splits in the front, cadence 6 inch 2-ways in rear and a 12inch sub in the boot and i get some sweet sound out of that, in my opinion go for the splits i really noticed the difference when i got mine.
