The good ol' 225 Centura!!!!! :D

225 - are you sure?

By the time the centura was in production (1975 -1977) the only straight motors being made by chrysler Australia were the 215, 245 and 265( the latter was never officially available in the centura)

The 225 was the stant 6 that was very popular from the R series through to the VG

However the 215 and 245 have the same size block as the 265, and it is literally a 1hr job to drop a 265 motor in (RT spec or otherwise) then you had a rocket that could spin wheels on demand

(In a past life I was the president of the Chrysler Car Club - and still have a soft spot for them)

Iv been told you can get defected in your own drive way is this true?

My understanding is that you can not be defected in your driveway unless the police are given permission or have a warrent.

You are on private property (yours) and there are specific conditions police need to observe prior to entry. Whilst this could stop them giving you a defect I dont think it stops them issuing an infringement notice or parking at the end of your driveway until you pull out.

If they ask you "Is that your car, and can we have a look?" and you say "yes", then they have the authority to issue a defect.

Yes my bad as they say.. I thought about it after and realised 4ltrs is actually a 245. :D

Steve; I'm hitting the sack for the night. Up early to give the old man a hand putting up his house (Steel framing).

i thought only traffic police can issue traffic offences/defects ect?

you willing to drive sideways infront of one of those CSI staionwagons with the ladders on top to test ur theory :D

they might not have the knowledge to defect u, but they certainly can fine you

commodores suck

i now have a nice bottom end rattle (started out 3000rpm and over, now its on idle too)

    • I'd say closer to OG GTX3582R, just smaller trim - so 59mm inducer/82mm exducer as opposed to 62/82 for the first gen GTX3582R. Yeah EFRs were boss, the EFR8474 is still an absolute beast and it perplexes me that people still go to things like Turbosmart/Garrett etc when the results people are getting with those are pretty unremarkable compared to what you could get with a turbo available well before those options came out.  DriftSquid (I think) "upgraded" from an EFR9174 to a Turbosmart turbo and promised a comparison video - and kinda shuffled awkwardly and did a bit of diversion from the fact that they didn't get any improvement going to the currently massively hyped brand of turbo from a turbo that was a bit of a frankenstein that had been well superceded in it's own range before the Turbosmart unit he put on there even came out. I suspect the EFR would outperform most Xonas for what a lot of less-insane RB owners would go for, in the 400-600kw range but the Xonas are looking hard to beat up to maybe in the mid 700kw range at this stage- basically where EFRs don't really reach, and before the Precision turbos take over.  What the Xonas do well in the "EFR range" is be easier to package etc, and work very well if a divided housing doesn't suit your application.  
    • Are you sure the gasket is blown? What are the issues? Thermocure is the only flush I've seen do anything with rust, very impressed with that, Prestone, rust will be by the pool having a cigarette.  
    • And since the flush you have a blown head gasket? Have you lifted the head off yet?
