Yeah you're not wrong there! I need to do my clutch first though, nopoint going for more power if it can't even make it to the gearbox haha.

AFM, fuel and ignition will be next. Followed by a turbo upgrade ;)

What have you done to yours?

hahaha shutup jase :D

Will give it till early next week. then start pm'ing ppl details.

Go checkout kunda park gearbox place, cant remember their exact name. They are a distributor for exedy clutches. Got a twinnie supplied fitted for under 1800. :)

Hahahah and to oldmate from brissie, if u knew what chapmans was like u would see the funny side hahaha.

Pretty much nothing ay, 3" turbo back, coilovers the end. At the moment I'm just trying to figure out what i want to do with it before spending too much cash. Did you notice a big difference after you got it tuned?

Yeah there was a noticeable difference after I had it tuned and had the power fc put in. Mind you after buying it and paying for the tune it cost me a bit over 2k lol.

I wanna lower mine, I just can't justify forking out that much cash for coilovers atm!

Which coils you looking at and how much?

I am probably going to go with just lower springs rather than going all out for coil overs. I only want to drop it a little bit, my bottom cooler pipe runs pretty low under the core (I have a just jap stealth kit) so going too low is not going to be practical anyway.

Speaking of coil overs though, I do have a second hand set lying around that I wanna get rid of. The rear ones were knocking when I had em in the car and it was driving me mad so I swapped em back out for the stockies. Does anyone know of somewhere that might be able to re-build or gas them (whatever it is they do lol)

Ah k fair enough.

I just swapped from lowered springs to Ksport coils in mine. I cant believe the difference it made to the car, its like driving a different car all together. Handles like a dream and even hooks up heaps better.

So far i have...

    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
    • Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.
    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
    • Strangely I noticed it either disappear later in the day, or not be present. I definitely noticed when I was crawling around that open wheel thingy entering the pits (that part was audible in car). Driving home and commuting around town for example, I didn't hear it. It's plausible that it was a brake disc or something still slightly in contact. The brakes absolutely felt BAD for the first couple of sessions, huge amounts of shudder and grinding as they got up to temp - And then I actually just forgot about it as the day went on/didn't notice it. The videos were from the morning when this was more present than the afternoon/drive home when it wasn't. I've asked around and got a variety of responses including handbrake shoe contacting hub, CV joints, CB tailshaft bearing as above, and clutch input bearing. I didn't test if it disappeared when clutch was in. I haven't noticed it in any of the other videos nor did I notice it when driving to that extent. More or less hoping the microphone at the rear license plate giving some kind of clue of 'something' but it looks like "spin stuff and see if you can notice it" is the way forward here. I could be smart and use the gopro mic and re-mount it to that location to see if the sound is still present at low speed actually. Sounds like a decent test whenver I have the CBF'ness to drive the car again. Given it's almost 40C for the day of the track day and the next 3 days after, the CBF is high. All I've done since getting home is unpack the car, remove the remnants of the lip and undertray and left it there. I was surprised how well the PMU Club Racers actually worked. The brake performance on the track was absolutely fantastic, best I've ever personally used, no fade whatsoever and the bitiness was almost too good, I was scrubbing more speed off than I needed to, but I also ended up infield when I started trying to scrape off ... less speed.... so...
    • Not really, no. Anything you would do is easily reversible.
