congrats on the sale of the car flick, does that mean you guys will be repping shepparton in the falcoooon?

on another note ive got a business id like to plug for their awesome service. took my radiator to get pressure tested and flushed today, went to Parkside Radiators (also trade as Edwardstown Radiators) at Melrose Park. The guy tested it then and there, showed me where the 2 leaks were, explained what he would need to do to fix, told me not to be too fussed about a couple of bent fins (from fan contact at some point) as it hasnt damaged it. I told him it wasnt a rush to fix it, and that id pick it up same time next week, but he still offered to fix it tonight and have it ready for pickup tomorrow. The clincher: For the pressure test, re-soldering around the top tank outlet, fixing the leak in one of the tubes, replacing the "tap" (which id broken off ages ago and let it weep a lil bit), and giving it a reverse flush, its costing me a grand total of $70

+1 to them

lol ryan

nah, need a proper cat

617 is far better than the current 200cfm item :D

definately know, by changing this, easy 200kw tune

last night had the attessa system working , lol

boosts well, bit soft in first, but second and third pull hard

IMO around 200ish atw is enough for the street, always been my goal.

sleeper wagon, nothing outstanding to look at (bar being a Stagea !), but streeter-eater deap down

:banana:

    • Hi All, I'm based in Sydney and want to get hold of 4 stock R34 GTT wheel caps as pictured. Cheers
    • Haha im flattered! Although my poor boat is collecting dust in the garage, as it hasn’t been driven in like 6 months. I forgot the to put the trickle charger on too, so the battery is likely toast now.. I have the frenchys kit. It is fantastic. My only gripe was that the hard lines from the firewall needed some tweaking, however, this was mainly due to my specific turbo and dump combo. The weight and size packaging is much nicer too. I think I have some pics on my build thread somewhere.. my justification for the kit was more “why not” I had gone to the trouble to modernise just about every other part of the car..
    • Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.
    • Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all.
