  1. Next one is at 1:30, gotta pass the time somehow! Grats on the trophy!
  2. What sort of rails do these use? Side or bottom mount?
  3. Fair enough. Are these the ones from the group buy about a year ago, coming from Carbontec (or similar) in China? *EDIT* Herp a derp. I'll read the 1st post a little better shall I?
  4. I take it no ADR approval? Any idea on the structural integrity of these things? Just had a copy Sparco seat fail on me after about a year which I'm looking to replace at the moment, don't really want the same thing to happen again.
  5. Read the thread Luke ya nunce
  6. Very nice. I need one of these V-Band rears
  7. You can get the intercooler without the piping kit. You only run into problems with the bov if the piping kit you buy replaces the stock crossover pipe like Johnny's has. Unless you are planning on going high mount or forward facing plenum, there is no need to delete the crossover pipe.
  8. Good son of rajab. Looking forward to the replies.
  9. What did Clint say that deserved moderation? $1700 for a standard retune is a joke, pure and simple. Clint did say 'under the assumption' that the OP of that comment was charged $1700 for a standard retune. If there was other work done then it's understandable, but given we were talking about the price of a retune then it's not 'stupid' that near on 2k is laughable.
  10. If you turn feedback off, that's essentially the same as deleting it. No need to actually ditch the sensor, I just did because I got a wideband O2.
  11. Yeh you do get the occasional one that doesn't seem to like boost though. Easy to check, just block the thing off while you're tuning it.
  12. Lookin good Benji. If you're thinking of doing track-work though, I suggest ditching the Greenstuff pads. I've got them in mine, and they are absolute rubbish on the track. Pretty good for street duties, but get some heat into them and you'll find yourself in the sand trap pretty often. Which isn't good for the paint, trust me on that. Otherwise, I'm diggin the build man, keep it comin!
  13. There's your issue. Ditch the O2 sensor and lean out the cruise mixtures. Biggest fuel saving is the boost transition cells and the throttle enrichment, if you can get your tuner to spend a bit of time getting those set up well then you'll get decent economy. I actually get worse economy driving on the freeway or anywhere around 100-110km/h, the engine just revs too high. I get best economy just driving around town at 60-80km/h.
  14. That's an awesome photo ^ Not often you see clever photography of an engine, good stuff
  15. Apparently not, it hasn't fixed itself yet. Now it's throwing a tantrum with the drivers seat, so it's in the naughty corner until I get back from Europe.
  16. Hypergear turbos love restrictions I feel your pain though. Car has been sitting in the shed for a couple of months now, thinking about what it's done
  17. Yep ^^
  18. ID's are where it's at.
  19. Yeh dude, any good workshop will do a 'proper' tune though. I've never had a problem with any of the tunes I've had at Allstar, Hyperdrive, or Garage 101. My car idles almost like factory apart from the slight note from the cams, and that's with 1000cc injectors. And I've been getting 550-600km's to a tank of petrol for awhile now.
  20. Woah... For just a retune?
  21. Yeh spoke to them about it, they were pretty impressed haha. Didn't really have a lot to say about it though, just that I had obviously exceeded how much heat they can handle. They replaced them for free and I'm using them again at the moment because it's downright impossible to find 57mm inconel studs. I've got a photo somewhere, I'll find it. They were completed rooted. Had to cut two of them off.
