many moons ago when I was living at home some cops came round one Sat arvo...

I walk outside to see them inspecting my old 33... started to chat to them and apparently a neighbour had dobbed us in as we had a loud car that was waking them up in the morning... I asked them what time and they said approx 5:30am... There was no way it was me as I never get up that early so I took them out the back to show them my dad's old Alfa Giulia GTC... they just laughed and asked to hear it... I gave it a few revs for them and they said nice car and left promptly lol... that car is seriously loud, I did used to feel a bit sorry for the neighbours! lol made my 33 sound positively quiet in comparison :bunny:

Hahaha nice one!

Im yet to get a visit from the po po's but im sure in the near future they will be knocking at my door :bunny:

That yellow Panspeed fd is automotive porno!

Looking good Dane. Do me a favour, and feel free to tell me to get stuffed...but i think the thing that will make your car will be the carbon flush fit headlight kit that deletes the pop up headlights.

If Greg's Onevia was white i would have bought it already as my daily. I wuodl throw the headlight conversion on it and be stoked! I would then change my name to Ben and track spec my GTSt. It seems all the cool kids with track GTSts these days go by the name of Ben :laugh:

You can tell me to get rooted too but I agree with Roy here, I reckon the carbon lights would look schweet.

Bris, I have your solution, my girl is up for sale, how about I send her over to you? :D You can even leave the name stickers on the window so everyone thinks you're one of the cool "Ben's" .

Great minds must think alike hey boys??! You can both get stuffed, and rooted... :laugh:

I'm way ahead of you, already have these waiting to go in, hence why there's no headlights in there :D Unfortunately they're not carbon though... The stock headlights weigh a fair bit, and were complicated to wire and just unnecessary so we decided to delete them with the Supermade kit. Now I juts need to get some lights for it, but it will make for a great cold air feed until then.

Greg's Onevia is a top buy Troy, nice car. Then you'll have a real engine, none of this RB rubbish :D

yeah you want some of these bad boys. it's the wtg for 180.

in fact if I ever do a 180 it will be a replica of that one. I saw it when it was debuted at tokyo auto salon a few years back and it was awesome then, and it's awesome now! lol, and nomuken even signed shit for me next to it, then pulled funny faces while I took pictures. fun times.

The 180 has a heart beat! :laugh:

that's awesome!

the headlight kit will look the goods on your car...

if my onevia was white, I probably wouldn't have bothered building up my silvia, I decided I wanted a white s13 not long after I imported the blue one... smooth.

I think im in love with those URAS kits...if only they did them for 33s and Id be set

Haha smooth Greg!

Yeah, I think the headlight kit will tie in well with the whole black/champagne thing I've got going on, especially when the carbon bonnet goes back on, though it's looking a little worse for wear...

Baron: I dig the Uras kit too mate, pity it came out after I'd spent way too much on the bodywork already. It looks to make a good base for some underbody aero work too.

Selling her? Any particular reason? Shame, the thing looked to be a decent little bus, and no doubt well driven.

    • Pete knows these cars well, he does my car too, if he was concerned about the traction arm length for your use he would have said so. Do you have adjustable bushes in that arm, maybe he got enough adjustment there (or maybe the bump steer was not material for your use of the car)
    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
