  1. James (GrumbleBee) said he found a noticeable gain in front end grip when he fitted his. I'd say designed properly there are definite gains to be had. Designed poorly, well, you could end up with less downforce!
  2. The time limit is when the sills start to bend...
  3. Brakes only slow you down Ants, stop using them!
  4. That reminds me, I really should grab my Air Comp back out and set it up, I have an air ratchet sitting there that's probably going to help me a lot more than doing the ratchet by hand.
  5. ill see you at $75 and a packet of stolen minties (sorry Zeb!)
  6. The other version to this is: An eskimo is touring New Zealand when his rental car breaks down. He pulls into a service station where the attendant looks the car over and exlaims "It looks like you've blown a seal" to which the eskimo responds "Yeah, well at least I didn't f**k a sheep!"
  7. Not for the tool box... I've started hanging tools up in the garage though... Starting to look better Waiting to get a power adapter so I can get the new MIG welder out though
  8. Zeb, if youre not touching the turbo, i wouldn't bother with an ECU. No major gains especially when setting up for circuit. It would be different if you were running 14PSI at the drags, but even with a good tune, you don't want boost higher than the stock ecu can run when on the circuit, especially wakie during summer!!!
  9. Youre talking about the Select ECU, its not comparable to the E1280S both the select and the E1280S are current models
  10. I'm totally not made of money
  11. Forget a half cage if you're thinking about rallying, full cage is the only way you want to go. Get good harnesses, seat, helmet and a HANS device. What ever car you buy, buy two of them. Don't get anything with bigger than, or smaller than, a 15" wheel. Find something with VERY long shock movement. And lastly remember... Lots of fun! And Zeb the other reason that cordia didn't get off the ground is the engine fell out of it...
  12. Is it an old school cable driven speedo? If so, attach drill, enjoy.
  13. I hear round 3 is a Kat favourite style event that would be great for her and Dave to really open the legs up on their beasts!
  14. Depending on which ECU you use, it will plug direct in over serial and wont take time to setup
  15. so really, downlow it would be punchier and good for pulling out of corners... Lol
  16. we'll send Dave and Kat to represent at Coota...
  17. I'm hoping that means an easier Friday for me rather than fixing lots of things... Lol
  18. Sounds like Pancake Parlour in Civic... Except there food also tastes terrible. And I just remembered... I have bacon, eggs, and hashbrowns ready to be cooked... MMMMmmmm... That might be a reason to finish building the BBQ...
  19. You will also find a lot of it comes down to how strong everything is around it. As you probably know, an electric motor will make bulk torque at 0RPM. Imagine putting down all of your torque while you're still stationary, you just start bending, twisting and shearing parts off, as well as the fact that at that point in time you're also drawing maximum current which loves to burn out all of your electronics. Someone needs to build up the corresponding control circuitry to avoid you blowing everything up, and this is what is probably lacking for now.
  20. No you just throw more volts, less resistance, and a few more winds on the motor and BLAM! Powers...
  21. That's what I thought he said he was charged with.
  22. That's nice, so what was it?
